Mockingjay

“Final book in the triliogy of the Hunger Games. Katniss and gang do not dissapoint with twists and turns that are unexpected. However, don't linger between books or you may get lost as there are so many characters.”

Mexican WhiteBoy

by Matt de la Peña
- Rated 4 stars
“If you like baseball and the fine poiints of pitching you will like this book. Danny's mother is white and his father is Mexican. Danny spends the summer in Natiional City, south of San Diego with his fathers folks. This is a character driven story of Danny and his new friend and catcher Uno their baseball hustle and self-discovery. It is highly recommended.”

The Hunger Games

by Suzanne Collins
- Rated 5 stars
“An original story about a futuristic survival game to the death. Everything is televised in this new world and there is a wonderful female protaganist. This is very thought provoking and possible. The characters were very realistic under extreme circumstances and I can't wait for the sequel.”
