Carl Hiaasen has always been an author that I really liked, he wrote the books Hoot, Scat, Flush, and those are just the more kid or teenage friendly books. Overall I really like Hiaasen as a writer, he bases majority of his books in Florida and he is a funny writer not all of his books are funny, but he adds funny parts in his serious books so they are not as dull. I this is a good trait in a book in my perspective and makes the boring parts entertaining. this book was a lot like the others, it had funny moments which make it entertaining. It is an adventure book so it has less boring parts but when there are boring parts they are made entertaining. it is a different idea for a book, that is more outside of the box.
This book is about Wahoo and his dad Micky, Micky is a animal wrangler. They were hired to star on a survival show, which is very serious for them, I imagine that it would be like a Bear Grylls show, they reference that show a few times, giving me that reference. Overall this book is like an adventure survival book with a little bit of action, which I really like, I highly recommend it it is a fairly quick read, its funny, pretty much the whole package in my perspective. READ IT NOW.

Book Blog for Number the Stars, Lois Lowery
This is a book about a ten year old girl named Annemarie Johansen, and the story is set in, Copenhagen, Denmark during a Nazi occupation it starts off when Annemarie and her best friend Ellen (Ellen is Jewish) are walking home from school and they get stopped by solders, it wasn't much of a big deal and it didn't occupy them for that long but their parents were very worried, because they had herd that the solders were shutting down Jewish stores. This book overall is just about the issues of the Nazis and I don't want to say to much because it could give it away, but i hope you read it it is a good book.

Lengend, Marie Lu
Just to say right now if you like action books this is for you. This book is about June a fifteen year old agent that works for the government and she is sent on a mission to capture Day. Day is a very, very bad criminal and he is accused of murdering June's older brother, this is the main reason why June is going after him. June is under cover as a poor woman, on her way looking for Day. Through the game book there are some plot switches so be ready for that.
Overall I loved this book. i have been reading a lot of books out of my comfort zone and this book is back into that zone. It is a action book full of well, just a classic action book with chases and fight scenes. I don't know why I love action books. This book just seems like there is always something important happening in each moment. I don't like slow books and this is the opposite of that. I recommend this book to anyone that likes action packed books and parkour and stuff like that. This is a series book, Prodigy is the second.

The 5th Wave, By Rick Yancey
This book is around 500 pages and it would be a medium read for a two
week book but I read it over break. I really loved this book it was really
entertaining and it draws you in really often. even the back description draws
you in "After the 1st wave, only darkness remains. After the
2nd, only the lucky escape. And after the 3rd, only the unlucky survive. After
the 4th wave, only one rule applies: trust no one." How amazing does that sound it drags you in to see what the 5th wave is like. over all I loved this book i give it a A or a 9 out of 10.
