Brayan’s comments from the Class of 2013 group.

"Problems for Santi begin with a surprise from Enrique..folowed by a cold ninety minute on the bench.And injury keeps Santi and Roz apart at Christmas..Santi has other company for the New Year.Then an accident brings more..and a reunion." After reaching his dream in becoming a professional soccer player,it has changed the life of young Santigo Muñez.Honestly,I think the life he is having right now is probably the best life he will ever have. Every soccer player has a limit. Either when they get injured and cant play anymore or when they are just to old to play. Santiago has tried his best. Yet, he has has changed, just like his girlfirend Roz has told him. He's lucky to have her. And yet, he cheated on her, thats a disaster! I recommend this book to people who enjoy soccer and will like to see what a lifes soccer player is like. Any age could read this! Other books by the same author are, "Goal" which is the first book, "Goal 3" which is next book after this, and other books of the adventures of "Andy Mcnab". What will you do if you were to have the life of Santi? Will you be a player like him? Will you take advantage of your money? Or will you just go with it and be a normal soccer player that wins a lot of money?

"A Matter of Trust" by Anne Schraff is about a girl wanting to help her boyfriend, Hakeem, by helping him on his stuttering. Also, she tries to cheer him up, but later get suspicious because her old best friend flirts with her boyfriend. I recommend this book to people who like realistic fiction and are in situations like this in real life. Other books by the same author are "As the Eagle Goes" and "Blackout". They sound intresting. A qoute from this book is "Darcy,' Brisana spoke in a mocking voice....'Its obvious that you are jealous' Brisana snapped. 'And why wouldn't you be? You can't even hold onto the one boy who ever paid any attention to you.."which made the main character angry because she gets offended and was about to punch her. While reading this book i was confused at first. It didn't really use that much sense, but then I finally understood, and got the point of it. And understood her life. I'd really enjoyed it. What will you do, if you were to be on her place? Will you let your boyfriend/girlfriend go, because of an old friend of yours? Or stand up and have fight for what you like? Its all about you and not what people think you should do.

I agree with Katherine and Vivian as well. It sounds like a very interesting book. Are there any other books you will compare this book to that you have read before?

"THE RESERVES MATCH was being played under lights at Kingston Park, the stadium the team shared with the Newcastle Falcons rugby club" "A rising star on the team...but his dream may be over" This are just simple questions that keep on wondering. Will you do such thing to reach for your dream even if something bad happen? From the beginning of the past week, I been reading this amazing book called "Goal" by Robert Rigby. Its about a young adult named Santiago Nunez who's dream is to play soccer professionally.I personally recommend this book for ages 12 actually. It very feel able. Meaning, that you could feel how the character feels and whats he's going through. Its extraordinary. Other book Robert Rigby has wrote are "Goal 2" and "Boy Soldier" as you could see he continues his book into the other book "Goal 2" so yeah it should be interesting to all you out there specially those who like soccer.

uhhhh, sounds interesting. I like horror books. What is it exactly about though? Is is like those books that people get lost and start getting hunted by someone ? Let me know please.

Same question Diego has, what do Hindu women work in and what are their harsh times they are going through? Is is something bad?
Please, let me know

Sorry for the long paragraph.

About a month ago,I read Hitler Youth by Susan Campbell Bartoletti. This book is amazingly sad,because you could never imaged what type of education adults gave to young teens and children, it just sad to think adults will ever do this. The Horn Book says,"The power of the account is matched by the many period candid and propaganda photographs, well-married to the text by strong captions and placements and an unobtrusive but period-evocative Art Deco page design." Kirkus Reviews says," ...Nonfiction writing at its best.Essential for WWII collections as well as teachings units on conformity, peer pressure and resistance." On the book, it says that,"Bleeding profusely, Emil stumbled back to his post and grabbed a limpet mine, a magnetic hollow explosive.For the third time, he headed back over the wall and toward the tank.He slapped the limpet mine to its side. The limpet mine fell. Emil snatched it up and pressed it against the tank, holding it in place until it exploded." It tremendous what Young Nazi did for their country suicide. Also, page 131 explains what Germany did as it grew, " As Germany grew more desperate, some boys who refused to join were threatened with accusation of treason or even execution." But look at the bright side imagine President Obama congratulating you for a tremendous work,project, or duty you did. On page 141 it says," Appearing worn-out and shaken, Hitler emerged from his bunker long enough to praise these Hitler Youth for their bravery in defending Berlin and to award each the Iron Cross." It just amazing thinking that young people already get military official awards.I recommend young teens and young adults( around the age of 12-19 to read this book for it will keep you in shock and keep you wondering that," will I ever do suicide for my country?" or "What do you think, do you think Hitler educated its young Nazi good?" Also, "And what do you think will you join the Nazi too if you had the chance?"
