Slam! (Coretta Scott King Author Award Winner)
By Walter Dean Myers
The book I have read is called Slam and it is by Walter Dean Meyers. This book is about a 16 year old person called Greg Harris. He is also known as slam because of basketball. Slam loves playing basketball as he has joined a new school. Despite his talents, his teachers notice that his grades have declined. Now, Slam has to figure out what to do before he gets kicked off the team. My opinion of the book is that it is a good book. The reason why I say that it is a good book is that it really brings out the emotions of the character and what the character is feeling on the inside. Slam is realistic fiction because this could actually happen to someone or it is based off someone, but it has some fictional parts to it. An audience that would read this book would be an audience that likes sports and would enjoy a book with a lot of details because that is what this book exactly contains. A external conflict in the book was that Slam's friends are starting to turn on him because he left his old school and the think he is different. An internal conflict is that Slam is deciding whether to go back to his old school or not and it is fighting the insides of him.

This is a very good book if you are looking for something easy and fun to do. I have read this over and over again, and I am still not tired of it! It is a really fun and exiting book for young readers! This book gives you ideas of things to do, but there are other stuff like: Interviews with different people, movie recommendations and reviews, book recommendations and reviews, and many more. If you are ever bored, this book is perfect for you. If you like arts and crafts, movies, books, or interviews, those things are all in there. Happy Reading!!!! :)

Starters
By Lissa Price
Starters... Takes place in America far into the future. Her parents died in the Spore wars two years ago. Now, Callie and her younger brother, Tyler, live on the streets along with Michael, a close friend. They live as squatters, running from marshals and fighting off renegades. When they run out of money, Callie goes to Prime Destinations, a place where enders- elders who wish to wish to be a teen again- can be in a teens body and do as they wish as long as they don't do anything too dangerous. Desperate for money, Callie rents out her body. The first two rentals go by fast... but when she wakes up in the middle of her third rental, in a night club, she wants to go back to Prime and have it fixed but a voice in her head tells her not to. She goes back to her renters house, which is a gigantic mansion. She soon figures out that her renter plans to do something Callie never imagined... This is probably my favorite book of all time. I love the story line. The writing is not as detailed as a lot of other books i have read, but it is still fantastic! The sequel to this book comes out january 7th 2014, it is called Elders. Keep your eye out for it. I'm SO exited for the sequel to come out! I'm going to stay up all night reading it!
