Thirteen Days

I've read the book Thirteen Days. It takes place during the Cuban Missile crisis time period. I did like the historical part about the book, however, I DO NOT suggest this book to anyone. It was extremely boring. The book dragged on and on and on for 90 some pages. They change days in which they are talking about and they are not clear on which day they are currently on. This was a terrible book and I advise people not to read it.

The Tale Of Despereaux

Despereaux Tilling, a mouse who is in love with music, stories, and a princess named Pea. It is also the story of a rat called Roscuro, who lives in the darkness and covets a world filled with light. And it is the story of Miggery Sow, a slow-witted serving girl who harbors a simple, impossible wish. These three characters all end up being connected some how by the end of the story. This is a child's book but it is also one of my favorite books. I do believe others will like it to.

Charlie Bone and the Time Twister

I read Charlie Bone and the Time Twister. It was a very quick read. The book was 400-some pages and took very short to read. Although, i did not finish the whole book because it got a little cheesy when they were traveling throughout time. Plus, it was a way under the grade level.
