Elsy’s comments from the Class of 2013 group.

Have you ever known what it feels like to be lonely or feel like your life sucks? Well in this book Rawly feels this way since his brother is in prison and his father dead. I loved this book and thought it was funny too. I recommend this book for people ages in teens and up. Some books by the same author are Alamo Wars, Who's Buried In The Garden?,and My Father, the angel of death.
Some quotes by other people like "This story of three Latino boys with Stephen Kingish imaginations ought to find a wide audience."- Kirkus Reviews on one of his books.

How is this book suspenseful? What is causing the book to be or sound that way?

so are they like ghosts?

Have you ever wondered what it feels like to be kidnapped with your little sibling? In the book abduction Matt and Bonnie get kidnapped by Matt's dad, and Bonnie tries her hardest to get them out alive. This book was an Edgar Award Nominee.I recommend people from middle school through adult and if you like mystery.I personally like this book it has a lot of suspense. Other books by Peg Kehret are I'm Not Who You Think I Am and Earthquake Terror.

Is this one of bluford high? it sounds intresting.

That Was Then, This Is Now by S.E. Hinton I think is a great book, one of my favorites. It is an ALA Notable Book. I recommend this book for people in ages in between middle school and adults. Some books also written by S.E. Hinton are Rumble Fish, Tex, and The Outsiders.This book is similar to Brothers In Arms in the fact that in both books the characters have to let go of one person on order to keep moving in life the right way.

What happens though?

What do they fight over?

Have you ever been seen as a monster in the eyes of people or been accused of being guilty for something you know you did not do? In this book Monster by Walter Dean Myers, Steve Harmon,a 16 year old black young man has been accused of participating in a felony murder and the jury has to decide whether he is guilty or not,yet his lawyer is trying her best to find him not guilty.However, the prosecutor is trying to making him look like a monster in the eyes of the jury.I recommend this book to teenagers and adults too. This book has won the Michael L.Printz award,Coretta Scott King Award, and National Book Award." Chilling and engrossing."- The New York Times "A searingly emotional account."-San Francisco Examiner and Chronicle these are quotes by some famous people.Other books by Walter Dean Myers are Shooter, Game, Street Love, Scorpions etc.

Have you ever wondered or experirnce what it feels like to loose a family member? In this book Brothers In Arms by Paul Langun, unfortunately Martin Luna looses his younger brother due to a gang.It is a really sad book, it is really intense it made me tear up. I recommend this book for teens and adults as well. Another book by him is The Bully. Pg.152 "Rest in peace, Huero. I'll make you proud." it is impressing to see some one want to make one of the person's they loved proud of them in a good way.

Good book review,I like it.

I am reading Monster by Walter Dean Myers.
