I am SOOOOOOO sorry that I haven't posted in so long!!!
I feel so terrible about it!!!!
But school has started, and that's why I haven't had any time...
Anyway, I have been able to read a bit, though the book that I am going to talk about now is one that we are reading for school. The book is called "Boy's Life," and it is by Robert McCammon.
It is a good book about a boy who is growing up in a small town in Alabama in 1964. The boy's life becomes harder when he and his father witness a car plunge into a lake, and his father goes to save then man, but finds him brutally beaten and chained to the wheel. As the father slowly becomes wrapped up in his terrible thoughts of the murder, the boy, named Cory, struggles through all of the events that are happening as he grows up, such as his friendships, school, summer, fairs, his incredible ability to write, and also the superstitions that surround his hometown.
It is a great book for anyone who really likes superstitious things, but also is interested for mystery stories and a bit of adventure and stories where the main character is growing up throughout the book.
See you all later!!
And this time, I promise not to stay away for so long.... :D
