Reality Check

by Peter Abrahams
- Rated 3 stars
“I enjoyed this book, although it is a little predictable. Also, the main character seems a bit unbelievable at times. It is suspenseful, though, and a good "listen."”

Unbroken

by Laura Hillenbrand
- Rated 5 stars
“Amazing story of the strength and resilience that is possessed by the human soul. Louie Zamperrini goes from mischievous child to hell-raiser teen to Olympic record-breaker to Officer in WWII to castaway in the South Pacific to POW suffering horrendous abuse at the hand of the Japanese to rescued adult plagued with flashbacks of the abuse.

An incredibly motivating story of the life that we all possess inside that does not have to be squelched, even through the most terrible circumstances.”

Son of the Mob

by Gordon Korman
- Rated 5 stars
“Love me some Gordon Korman! This book captures the humor, the action, the romance and the deeper meaning, all in one! Vince Luca, son of a big mobster, falls for Kendra, daughter of the FBI. Hilarity ensues, and Vince finds his motivation.”

Lunch Lady and the Field Trip Fiasco

by Jarrett J. Krosoczka
- Rated 4 stars
“This time, the lunch lady and the breakfast bunch help to catch art thieves trying to make off with the collection from the museum. The colorful graphics are great, but I found the story to be weaker than the others. Still good, but not roll-on-the-floor hilarious.”
