Kiki Strike

Kiki Strike by Kirsten Miller is a very hard book to get into, but i got through it. So far the book is about a girl (who I don't know the name of yet) who has a very uninteresting life and shes looking for something new, and exciting. Then a random girl she never noticed before named Kiki Strike comes into her life, and im up to the part where she remembers when she went into Shadow City in the crater hole. I think she thinks Kiki has something to do with Shadow City.

She Knows Kiki Strike has something to do with shadow city because Kiki has sent out so many clues. The first   clue Kiki gave away is that she came out of nowhere, like the girl said every girl in the school knew each other they also knew how much money they had, how can a random girl like that come from no where just like the crater hole. The Other clue is that when the class was going around tell the rest of the class what they wanted to be when they grew up and Kiki Strike said "Dangerous" She was the only girl who said something out of the ordinary kind of like the weird crater hole popping up out of know where. Kiki strike is just like the Crater and Shodow city.

Shadow City is very misterious just like Kiki strike, Shadow City came out of nowhere like Kiki Strike, and Shadow City has also caught the main characters attention just like Kiki Strike. I think Kiki Strike symbolizes  Shadow City in a way. But i cant wait to finish my book.

Red is for Remembrance

I finished a book called Red is for Remembrance a while ago. It's apart of a great series, this was the last book of them all. This was an amazing ending because Stacey's (the main character) boyfriend died (Jacob) or so she thought he was really staking out in a camp with amnesia. The camp was good for him but they where really law breakers. This book had everything drama, mystery, suspense, horror, and funniness but the only bad part about is that the author just gave it away at the end.

At the end of the book she finds her boyfriend right, but a couple chapters ahead the last the author gives the whole thing away. She either put the gave it away not knowingly, or she didn't think anyone would figure it out. Well I'm smart enough to figure it out and I'm in 8th grade. Maybe she put it in because she got lazy if that's it then that's bad. But the most logical reason I could think of is she put the "spoiler" in because she wanted us to feel like we're a step ahead of Stacey and to make us yell at the book like people do to the tv saying "Shell is Jacob you idiot go find him!!" That didn't help for me it just made the last few chapters a drag because I'm like "come on I already know what's going to happen.

Well I admit half of what I think she was thinking happened I said in my head "oooohhh Shell is Jacob" but now I know authors put stuff in for a reason but sometimes you don't know. It can just be put in there by accident. But anyway at the end of the book Stacey ad Jacob get back together and live happily ever after. But I really wanted to keep reader maybe a 5th one? But I know it's not going to happen so I'm just going to be here and look for another good book to read.

White Is For Magic

I'm almost done with a book called White Is For Magic. It's an amazing book about a girl named Stacy dreams about the past and it becomes the future, and now she's about to figure out she has to die. But aside from all the drama that she has in her dreams, she has relation ship problems. Her boyfriend caught her almost kissing another boy. The next morning her mom comes for a vistit. She needed to sort things out with her boyfriend but she had to stay and talk with her mother, then to make things worse her mother takes her out to breakfast.

This part of the story was hard to read because I felt that way too when you really had to do something then you have to put it aside because someone got in your way. I just wanted to go inside the book and punch her mom then told her to go talk to her boyfriend. Even talking about it now just makes me shiver, this had to be the worst part of the book but its also the best part. I think the author wanted us to feel like that so we can step inside of Stacy's head and feel the way she's feeling.

All in all the author makes us feel a was for a reason. And the purpose of this event was to make us feel how the character was feeling.

White is For Magic

I so far love this book, its equally romantic and freaky. I'm up to the part when Stacey finds the tape in her room playing Miss Marry Mack. This part is really scary but I don’t like how her friends don’t believe her they’re her friends they’re suppose to believe or even pretend to believe her, that what friend sod instead they just say "I don’t believe you" then walk out of the room.

When your friends don’t believe you then nobody believes you. Her best friend Amber is the only friend that’s the closest to believing in her because he said, "I want to believe you but I just can't" that is the closest to a real friend she has. I know its sad but it's the best she's got, because her other friend is trying to steel her boyfriend back form Stacey. So if I where Stacey I would stay away from anyone who's not her friend because who ever is blackmailing ca be anyone even the people that she absolutely trusts.

You need real friends in your life and real friend don’t try to steel your boyfriends. That’s so mean and friend don’t do that, so it might take you a while to figure out who your real friends are, but you need to not be blind and break away from all the bad friends because they’re only going to lead you into the wrong direction, and your good friends will only lead you into one direction which is up towards your dreams.

White is for Magic

I've been reading a book called White Is For Magic, its a book about a girl named Stacey and she has these weird creams that tell her about the future, and someone just broke into the house. Who broke into he house deserves justice and justice hasn’t been served yet. 

If justice were to be served it would be severed as punishment like usual. But justice has been served in a case, like her friend used to go out with this boy named Chad, when she left for a semester Stacey and Chad started to go out, when she came back she's been having feelings for him again. She already got justice in a way because Stacey gets to out with him. 

Justice can be severed in many different ways, by revenge, law, punishment, and other things. But in this case Justice came naturally, sometimes if you some one does something mean to don’t do anything something will come to them that’s even worse.

The Puzzling World of Winston Breen

I've just finished reading a book called The Puzzling World of Winston Breen. Its a good book about a boy named Winston he loved puzzles a much as a dog loves his bone, and he bought his little sister a box for her birthday. Then his little sister found a secret compartment in the box. In the secret compartment he found 4 wooden strips with letters on it. Then he found out they belonged to Walter Fredericks (the guy who founded the town he lives in) and long ago Walter Fredericks hid a ring and he has to partner up with 3 other people who also had the puzzle pieces. At the end of the first day of ring finding they didn’t find anything, but then someone who they trusted broke into Winston's house and told him to find the ring, in the end he found the ring and the guy was thrown in jail. Winston had trusted the wrong people.

Winston and the group of treasure hunters put their trust into the wrong hands. They trusted a news reporter who was a girl named Brenda, and Zach Dilmer whose dad was friends with Walter Fredericks. According to Zach her name wasn’t even printed on the newspaper she so calls works for. That wasn’t the smartest thing to do because you know she could've been anyone which she was, but having an ex-cop in the group you would think would make them more aware of this stuff but he didn’t even know about that. They should've looked her up or something especially when it's about a really expensive ring.

Winston and the rest of the treasure-hunting group trusted the wrong people. They trusted Zach Dilmer; even though they had all the right to trust him they should know the nicest people are always not what they seem to be. Winston said it himself he should’ve been more observant because they envelopes weren’t old like the other ones. I would be very disappointed in Winston because he said to Brenda that he was the best puzzle solver in the group, well if your a good puzzle solver then why didn’t you notice that before? The puzzle-loving group should be more observant.

All in all Winston and the rest of the group where really being reckless during their hunt. Yeah I know they where excited but they also had to realize that they're looking for a priceless ring that costs a lot of money and a lot of people want that money. So if your ever doing something top secret keep it top secret. It doesn’t matter if it legal or illegal you need to keep it a secret. Like if your doing something against the law your not going to tell everyone on the street “hey I’m about to rob that jewelry store down the block” that’s not smart. So be smart and keep important things a secret.

The Puzzling World of Winston Breen Part 2

I have been reading and good book called The Puzzling World of Winston Breen I am up to the part where they just figured out the second puzzle and they’re one step closer to finding the ring that Walter Fredericks buried many years ago. The main plan of hiding the ring was to make all his kids work together and find the ring themselves, but that didn’t really work out. They all ended up keeping they’re puzzle pieces they got and hiding them until they all died.

I think that it's kind of wired that Walter Fredericks went through all that trouble to make his kids work together and find the ring. I have a feeling that the ring is their but it's not the ring they where looking for. I mean really why would expect his 18 year old children to work together after they've been fighting for the whole 18 years. I think that ring wasn't mint to be found at all. 

Does Walter Fredericks seriously think that his kids would work together just for the ring, and also if it really is true about the ring being buried then how would he expect them to share it and that would turn into a whose other fight but this time it would turn legal or maybe fight to the death. Because if the siblings don’t communicate for 18 years the how don’t you expect them to fight for money. Either Walter Fredericks isn't the smartest person in the world or he didn’t think his thoughts all the way through.

If I was one of the siblings I would probably keep mine a secret, like they did, but I would secretly start becoming friends with each and everyone of them until we get the ring. Well that’s what I would do.

All in all Walter Frederick went though all of that trouble for just a bunch of people terrorizing the youngest sibling so she can give them her puzzle pieces. Walter Fredrick’s although rich but he wasn’t the smartest thinker.
