May 26, 2011. Today I will blog about __Gym Candy__ by Carl Deuker. I have just started reading __Gym Candy__. I don't know what the plot is so far, but I will let you know as soon as I read it. From what I have read so far, I give __Gym Candy__ a 4 out of 5 stars. Next quarter I would like to read __In the Trenches__ by Reggie White.


 * April 29, 2011.** Today I will blog about __Boost__ by Kathy Mackel. I finished the book finally! Savvy Christopher and her team were in a lot of drama because of the steroids issue, but they pulled it together and went to the State Championship. I recommend this book to everyone!


 * April 18, 2011.** Today I will blog about __Boost__ by Kathy Mackel. I have read 104 pages this week. Savvy Christopher went to the new school, but decided to go back to her old school to play with her old teammates and friends. This is a great book so far.


 * April 1, 2011.** Today I will blog about __Boost__ by Kathy Mackel. I have read 72 pages this week. " Change is always tough." said Kronos. Savvy Christopher was being recruited for a better team and school. She was concerned about going to a new school and making new friends. This is a good book and it just keeps getting better.


 * March 24, 2011.** Today I will blog about __Boost__ by Kathy Mackel. I got this book in our school library. I chose this book because I like basketball and I can connect to the book. This book is really interesting. The main character in this book is Savvy Christopher. She is an amazing basketball player. The first day, Savvy was making shots all day. She impressed the coaches. So far I really like this book! I recommend it to anyone who is interested in basketball.

Review
 * February 10, 2011.** Today I will blog about __Of Mice and Men__ by John Steinbeck. This book was very depressing. I wish George didn't have to kill Lennie. I agree and disagree at the same time. Lennie was a little out of control, but he couldn't help it. George had good reasons for doing so. I really like this book, even though it had a very sad ending. I wish the book ended with George, Lennie, Candy, and Crooks on the ranch living in peace. Lennie was George's good friend and companion. It must have been really difficult for him to kill Lennie. __Of Mice and Men__ by John Steinbeck is an amazing book and everyone should read it!

This book is really good and interesting. I think everyone should read this because you can learn a lot from reading it. I hope you enjoy __Of Mice and Men__ by John Steinbeck as much as me, if not more.
 * January 27th, 2011.** Today I will blog about __Of Mice and Men__ by John Steinbeck. I really like this book so far. I think George is a really great guy for not leaving Lennie alone and helping Lennie find a job. Lennie is a really nice guy! I have great sympathy for him. I know it must be difficult for him living back then while being mentally handicap. I was really happy for Lennie when he got the puppy. I think Curley is a huge jerk! I'm glad George told Lennie to fight back. Slim is a really nice guy.
