One would be how it is a horror story with crime mystery in it, which stays in your head. The plot and story was amazing. I recommend this book to people who like horror, mystery books. There wasn’t anything that I disliked about this book. The theme of this book was adventure because they went exploring and finding clues and solving crimes.

I just didn't understand why the man shot him or was Jackie in the way on the gun fire. The more I kept reading the more I got intrigued with the next scenes when they was in the car on the way to the…

    I rate this book a 2 out of 4 because I feel like the author could’ve extended the book in many different ways. One example is that the author didn’t explain and describe the actual two people who killed Mr. and Mrs. Lee, she just stated that they were thrown in jail. The length of this book was also a bit diminutive in my opinion. The idea of the book was wonderful which makes me feel that the climax could’ve been bigger and a bit longer which would’ve made it a better book. Another reason why this book held me back from rating it a 3 was that, the way Mike and Rebecca found Amanda Brown wasn’t as intense compared to other mystery books I have read. For example, when Rebecca found Amanda’s number from Cecilia, she searched Amanda’s address…

    I like how its really intense and calming and also some parts funny. I like how it talks about teen pregnancy because some young teens will want to get pregnant at such a young age and if they read this book it may help them change their mind and wait till they get older, thats very important to me. I really like the chapter where Bobby was talking about the wall when he was trying to get everything back in place and try to see who he really was, i thought that part was really good. I like how it goes back and fourth for the chapters like then and now, it makes you want to read more because in one chapter it tells you really good information and you just want to read even more till the…

    James Romm wrote Ghost on the Throne with the purpose to inform the reader of Alexander the Great and the empire he established, with the ensuing chaos the came after when Alexander tragically died at a young age. The book was organized somewhat chronologically, starting from opening the tombs in which Alexander was buried and how he fell ill, to the closing of the tombs and a reflection of the fall of his empire. Romm tried to answer the question of how Alexander died, providing multiple theories of how and why he died. Romm seemed to advocate the theory of poison from Alexander’s enemies, including the fact that many people wanted to see Alexander dead. Romm also explained in great detail how the empire fell; the countries wanted to conquer the others just as Alexander had done. However, the giant war led to the end of an empire. Romm explained much about Alexander and his trusted colleagues that were also his closet friends. They had much power over society and probably took advantage over those that did not admire and respect Alexander a much as they and many others did. Alexander was godlike to many of his people, which greatly impacted them when his death humanized him. One assumes that he was not as respected after his death then before. The people put their envy for the power of the empire before their respect for the established government and bloody, royal family.…

    Another important aspect of this book is the band, Dumb. This band faces the challenge of finding a real paying gig. Also having a manager who is deaf and can barely hear the music being played doesn 't really help them achieve their goal. I think Dumb was really great throughout the novel. The reader learned many things about each member you would never have guessed. You could hear everyone’s voices and feelings very clearly even though the story was told through Piper’s point of view. For example, during the story, you get a glimpse of the pain Kallie feels, especially right before…

    I liked this book for several reasons. One being I had a teacher in my senior year in high school who was my inspiration. She pushed me and motivated me to go over and beyond the call of duty and to that I give her many thanks. Whenever I had a problem I could go and talk to her and she would be there for me. At times she was my mom and other times she was a friend. Just like Mitch, there were times in which Morrie served as Mitch's teacher and other times when he was just a friend.…
