I am reading the “Cover-Up” it is 298 pages long and I am done with the book. The author is John Feinstein and he writes a lot of sports books. The connections I’ve had with the book are that I currently play football and the book is about football. The kid reporters in the book are always in the middle of everything and that’s similar to me. I like the book because you never know what is going to happen next.

The connection between me and the book I am currently reading, The Breaker Boys on pg.123 by Pat Hughes is that the boys never give up on the task they are doing. Another thing me and the Breakers Boys have in comon are that they have respect for elders. The Reason i like the book Breaker Boys is because they take on jobs that coud kill them and they don't care that also a connection that I have between them. The Breaker Boys are like brothers and they stick together no matter what and they were non-trouble makers. I would recommened this book if u like to work or do hard jobs like these boys, u will not hate it, u will like it.

The book that I am currently reading is The Pretty One by Cheryl Klam . I am on page 146 . A connection that I have from my life and the book is that people tink that my sister is prettier than me . People dont really pay attention to me when my sister is around . I feel exactly how Megan feels in this story . This is one of the reasons my I love this story . My sister and I liked the same guy before , just like Megan and Lucy . That is a connection I have in my life that compares to the story .

I am reading a book called Heat.
the main character in my book is Michial he is the main character in my book because he is the star
player on the baseball team. I can relate to that because when I played soccer I was the star PLAYER on the team. His dad was worked during his games. I can relate because during some of my games my dad had to work. by the way @example you should probably add two more sentences you only have 3 you need five. @emasio6 I loved your blog today it was amazing KEEEP UP THE GOOD WORK!!!!!!

I’m reading Liar & Spy by Rebecca Stead, and I’m currently on page 45. In this book is the main character is George. He is in the 8th grade and recently moved. Now he is forced to make new friends. I can empathaize with him very well considering I just moved back into Gainesville.

The book I was reading is “The Lions of Little Rock” by: Kristin Levine. I just fished the book and I loved it. The actors I would have as my main characters would be Bailee Madison and KeKe palmer as my movie characters. The part of Marlee would be played by Bailee Madison. Bailee Madison is a very good actor for her age and I think she would do perfectly in this role, because of how caring and sweet she appears on and off the camera. The part of Liz would go to KeKe Palmer, because she’s so sweet and handles every role she gets differently. These would be perfect actors if they were going to make “The Lions of Little Rock” a movie.

I am reading Godless by Pete Hautman I'm on page 77. The main character is bored with his parents religion so he creates a god the town's water tower. And forms a group of odd people to worship there god but he realizes that creating a religion is easier than keeping it stable. One connection I have with Jason Bock the main character is that we both like to try new things and go with it.
