My New Book A.K.A OFFICIAL BEGGINING OF THE SECOND MARKING PERIOD!

To kick off the second quarter I have found a book that I am really exited to read. It is funny because it the book is an in-depth look at this really big case of mistaken identity that I had actually heard about on the news a few years ago. I decided to read this because I remembered how sad it was when I saw it on the news but forgot pieces of the story. The case was of these two girls who hit each other in their cars. The two girls happened to look exactly the same (and were not related. One died in the car crash and one lived, but was in a coma. Somehow all the cops and family members mistook the two girls because there faces were messed up in the crash. The family of the dead girl thought that their loved one was in a coma and the family of the girl in a coma thought that their loved one had died. You can probably imagine what it was like when the girl came out of her coma. But the thing that really interests me about this story is the idea that you think your loved one was almost dead and then find out that she was dead all along. Or that the loved one that died tragically has been alive the whole time. So yes I'm really exited to read this book.

The "epic" story about me reading a whole book in one week!!!

Because last Friday was the official end of the marking period and I only had credit for two book's (one really long one), this week I had to read a whole book; and I actually did it. The book I read was called The Body Of Christopher Creed, by Carol Plum-Ucci. I know the name of the book may give a weird picture in the reader's head but the book was really good. The book was about a guy named Victor "Torey" Adams. Torey had a great life in his old town until a person he knew from his school, Christopher Creed, went missing mysteriously. Christopher's body was found by Torey who went in the woods to look for him and ended up tripping and fell onto the dead body, which is pretty gross to even think about. When Torey told everybody that he found the body there was obviously people that would think rumers like that Torey killed Christopher and such. It was things like this that made Torey want to leave town; so for his senior year as a student, Torey went to a boarding school. Soon after the year at the new school starts people start to learn about Torey's past, It was as if Torey could not run away from what had happened. Throughout the book the reader sees Torey trying to contact people that knew more about the "insedent". One quick thing that I thought was funny was that i was able to make a connection to The Cather In The Rye because in the first chapter, Torey was sitting in his room when another boy from the school, Leo, barges in and starts spying and touching things in Torey's room. It reminded me of the part of Catcher when Ackley would come into Holden's room and start touching everything.

uhhh. the search continues.

I finished the last Pendragon book last week and right now I am in that weird state where I finished a really good book and need to find a really good new book. So I don't really know what to talk about in this blog post. I think with the remaining blog post i will try to figure out what I will read next. I was just thinking about the book The Giver. I read it a few years ago but don't remember what happened. So I think thats what I will read next. Sorry if this blog post was not that good, but I at least wanted to keep up with the blog entries.
