Was there really a Nuclear Explosion? Eli finds out what he is really capable of doing to save his family. This book is full of mystery, intrigue and thrills. A real nail biter!

I read General Winston’s Daughter by Sharon Shinn this past weekend. I really enjoyed the book. It kept my interest from the first page. The plot took several turns & spins. It also gave a different side to war that you usually don’t see. I would reccommend this book to any of the students.

The New Policeman by Kate Thompson

lweingarden — Mon, 12 Jan 2009 14:28:06 +0000

A great story, but a little hard to start. Once you understand that this story is set in present day Ireland, and some of the terms become clear (like “Grada” is a title for the police that means “Officer”) it’s a bit easier to follow. A boy goes on a quest to buy his mother some time, because she never seems to have any. There’s a lot of back story that all comes together in the end, involving legends and lore that many people don’t believe any more and somewhere in there you find out if the legends are really true or not!
