Code Orange

Once again for school we read a book that I have read. Code Orange is about a boy named Mitty Blake who finds smallpox scabs and do to hypochondria, believes he is infected with the extinct disease.
This book is really interesting. As a writer myself I knew how the book was going to end but I was wondering how Caroline B. Cooney would write it. She did a great job. I found it fascinating and a little scary.

Flour Babies

This book is about Simon Martin and his class who have to do a Science Project where they are supposed to carry around flour babies as if they are real. I thought that this book was boring and pointless. Yes, he carries around a flour baby and learns what it's like to be a parent. That is way overdone, well, this book may have come out before the shows where they do the same plot but still, overdone.

And Then There Were None

First there were ten...and then there were none. IN Agatha Christie's mystery ten people are sent to Indian Island and one of them is a murderer? Who is it and who will be the next victim?

I thought this book was exciting, creepy, and mysteriou. I don't usually like mystery but I have been inspired.

Mockingjay

Well, let me tell you that this is one of my favorite books that I have ever read. Read it. Read the series. Suzanne Collins is a genius.

The Book Thief

Markus Zusak is an amazing author in The Book Thief where Liesel Meminger is living in Nazi Germeny and Death tells her story. It is sad and funny and a great read and one of my favorite books.

The Necromancer

Michael Scott just keeps getting better and better in this next book in The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel series. The Necromancer is about Dr. John Dee needing a Necromancer to raise one of the most powerful beings in his quest to conquer earth and by tricking Josh, he has one. It was definately the best book of the series so far and I can't wait for the next one.
