This hath not a clever title

By Kyle J.

The book The Call of the Wild is a good book and i would definitely recommend it for someone else to read. The book is about a dog named Buck, Buck was a dog that a lived a great life on a ranch in California until one day he was stolen and sold to a man that used all his dogs as sled dogs. Buck progressively gets to a strong/wild stage where he is forced to fight other dogs in order to become the leader of the pack. The owners Buck had were horrible people and did nothing but treat their dogs like complete crap. One day a man named Thornton rescued Buck and treated Buck just as a dog should be treated. Thornton died shortly after he rescued Buck and he had to learn and experience how to fend for himself and become a leader in the wild.

This book review is severely substandard



By Chris M.
Percy Jackson was entertaining to read. I liked how the author Rick Riordan mixed in the modern day with mythological figures. Some of which include Dionysus, Ares, Poseidon, and Hades. I like how it gives a splash of mythology mixed with fiction. I also like how Rick Riordan mixes comedy with action to make a fun adventure. So if you're a fan of mythology and like comedic and action packed books, i recommend you to check out Percy Jackson.

This Book Will Knock You Out


By Ryan L.

The book I'm reviewing is The Knockout Games. The author that wrote this book is Gregory Neri. Another book he wrote is Yummy: The Lasts Days of a South Side Shorty. The genre of the book is fiction with a little bit of thriller in it.
