The Schoolboy
by Tony Rosa

The realistic characters are just like some people you probably know. Rosa incorporates some wonderful moral lessons in this easy to read, fast paced story that would encourage even reluctant readers to join Sam Parma in a game of golf. I hope to see more of Sam's adventures from this talented first time author.

Blood and Chocolate
by Annette Curtis Klause

I recently reread Blood and Chocolate  I truly favor this authors style over others. Klause writes very confidently about the paranormal and her take on werewolves is most refreshing and sensual.

Angela - Hubbard Middle School
Cirque de Freak

I think all Cirque de Freak books from Darren Shan are amazing. They teach kids about life in some weird ways. There are parts that make you cry and the best part is when they leave you asking for more. That's how I finish when I finish a book of his I MUST read the next one. This book is one of the best I've ever read and I never liked to read before this book.
