Summer Reading

Welcome back!  I hope you had the summer of your dreams!  Did you sleep in?  Did you go on a vacation? Did you read any books?  What?  Read?  Yes!  I'd like to get to know you a bit, so in the comments below, tell me about your summer.  Make sure you mention one book, article, or even a menu you read (please tell me you read something!)  Give me a short summary of whatever it was and tell me if you liked it... or not...

    Bossypants... who me? I love Tina Fey, and I love her even more after reading Bossypants. I couldn't wait to turn on my Kindle every night to read the next chapter. Fey is hilarious, and I was riveted when reading about her days as a writer and performer on Saturday Night Live, as well as 30 Rock.

    For vacation i did not go anywhere. My family bought a cabin in Annandale on Lake Sylvia so we are trying to remodel it. In the summer i read the book Outlaws and its a boy who stole food for his family to survive. He got caught by a guard and took him in for death. But he refused and join a gang called the outlaws. Boy i liked that book a lot.

    Tyler Torntore - I went on vacation with my cousins and family to Door County. It was beautiful. My cousins are funny and a blast to be with. I went to Valley Fair a few times. I went on a week long camp up north with my friend. We got to shoot rifles and arrows. I did not read at all but plan on doing so this school year. I did order The Power of Six and The Rise of Nine.

    I read the series the Bar Code Tatoo about this girl named Kayla who didn't want the tatoo and started resisting and a lot of bad things started happening to her and her family. But they eventually defeated the bar code and were free again.

    I started off my summer with a volleyball camp ; which was exciting and fun! Then a trip to Colorado. It was the best views I have seen so far! On the plain there and back I read Catching Fire. I really , really enjoyed that book. I am now reading the third book in the series called Mocking Jay. I haven't really got that far into yet thought. So far I know its about Katnis Everdeen trying to find Peeta Malark, the guy who she was in the games with for the first and second book.

    This summer I did some camping and I went to my cabin a lot and played some Lacrosse. Best of all I finally figured out how to wakeboard! Over the summer I read a little bit of a John Flanagan book but I have to say I would much rather be outside running around.

    I had read multiple books and series this summer. Some of this collection included The Hunger Games and Shadow Children Series. My favorite books that I had completed this summer were Across the Universe and A Million Suns both by Beth Revis. I read a total of 32 books and I had a few sports going on. I hung out with friends pretty much every other day too.
