When You Reach Me

Hey Blog readers!!! When You Reach Me is a really good book. I have read it 3 times, I know a lot of people read it last year in 6th grade....but since its SO good I needed to make a blog on it.

WARNING: This book is very confusing, sometimes you have to go back and read the chapter before to see whats going on.

So, When you Reach me is about a girl named Miranda and a Boy names Sal. One day Miranda and Sal were walking back from school and Sal got punched in the face. After that Sal didn't want to be friends with Miranda anymore (you find out why at the end of the book.) This is a really hard change for Miranda because Sal was pretty much her only friend. A couple days after he got punched Miranda started getting black mailed, she got freaked out and told her mom...but it kept on happening. The thing about this book is that every single little detail happens for a reason, so you really have to pay attention otherwise you will get completely lost. I would tell you what happens next but that would give too much away...so you have to read it for your self!!!!

P.S. The Same author (Rebecca Stead) Wrote another book called First Light, its not quite as good...but its still pretty good!!!

The hunger games.

The hunger games is a book with a lot of action and suspence. It is definatley on the the best books i have ever read. it starts with a girl and a boy. The girls name is katniss and tje boys name is peeta. They got picked in a raffle to be in the yearly hunger games. The hinger games is a horrible contset that the capital holds, it is where thry take two kids (a girl and a boy) from each district. The kids are put in an arena and are froced to fight to the death against eachother. Peeta and katniss pretend to fall in love with eachother so that the sponsors will feel simpathy for them. Because there can be only 1 winner. I don't want to give away anymore of the book, because I everyone to read it!!!!
