Tangerine

This week I finished Tangerine  by Edward Bloor. This final part of the book I read was really good and had a lot of detail. Paul (the main character) starts to remember things that have affected him and he also does things that he learns to regret. There were many twist and turns in the final lapse of this story. However I do not like how that author ended this book, because i feel like it was kind of dull compared to the rest of the book.I would definitely recommend this book to anyone who wants to read it. I think that it has a great story line and overall message.

Free Verse Poem

Free Verse Poem

Its dances down and lands on my cheek,
then melts into a small pond.
One after another, completely the same
cycle over and over. Eventually so many have
fallen they do not melt. The stick together,
until they turn into one big chunk. Soon
the sun shines with and excited glow.
The different streets melt down to lakes
flooding the streets.
I watch this all happen from my
window, where my face feels this whole process
also.

Tangerine

My book group book is Tangerine written by Edward Bloor. So far this book has been really good and really intriguing. This book is written in the first person which was a switch from the last book I had read that had been in third person. 

So far this book has been about a guy named Paul who is moving to Florida. He has to go to a new school and once again get out shined by his brother Erik who plays football. His father cares more about football then Paul's own sport which is soccer, even though erik used to play soccer. Many other events happen that effect the story greatly, but if you are thinking of reading this book it would probably give it away.

Overall this book is about a girl named Becca King who has her world flipped upside down and has to move to Whidbey Island. Many different events happen, but if i told you it would give everything away. This book is fiction and mystery and a great read.

The Edge of Nowhere

This week I am reading a two week book called The Edge of Nowhere written by Elizabeth George. I have not finished this book yet because it is a two week book. This book is about four hundred and forty pages in all. So far this book has been really good. It has been about a girl name Becca King (not her real name) who has to leave where she is living to live with her moms friends while her mom has to go take care of something. Many things happen but if i told you it would give it away if you are ever to read this book. Overall this book is a mystery and anyone should read it.
