The Holocaust: An End to Innocence
By Seymour Rossel
Have you ever known what it is like to be abused, and not treated like others, and even your family and friends killed? Chances are, you haven’t. The book that I will be talking about is a book written by Seymour Rossel called “The Holocaust” which is about the Holocaust. The Holocaust takes place in Germany 1933-1945. The overall focus of this book is Hitler's actions and basically what he's done. The first conflict in the book that I will be talking about is when Hitler starts to take action when he first started to get the jews to have separate things like separate bathrooms and being in the very back of the bus and things like that. And a second conflict I will be talking about is that all shops owned by jews were destroyed and robbed sometimes harming the owners or even killing them. One of the five interesting facts I will share is that Hitler actually got rejected from an art school more than once which lead his life to fascism. Another fact is that Hitler was once ordered to trim his mustache. A third fact is that Adolf actually loved Disney. A fourth fact is that Hitler was a vegetarian. And for the last fact I will be sharing is that Hitler's favorite actor only died in 2011. As a conclusion, I liked this book because it is very factual and goes through a timeline of Hitler’s actions and it is enjoyable to read. I would recommend this to more mature sixth graders and up because the book give you information about pretty graphic things that happened. This will conclude my book review.

Fingerprints and Talking Bones
By Charlotte Jones
I read this book because it was about forensics and crime solving. This book was about how real crimes are solved and what scientist have to do to solve the crimes. This book tells the reader stories about crimes and what mistake the criminal made to get caught. In some cases the criminal didn't make any mistakes but they still got caught. Or in some cases the criminal didn't get aught at all. I liked this book because it tell me stories about crimes and how they are solved and what tools scientist use to help solve the crimes.

What Happened To Goodbye
By Sarah Dessen
What Happened to Goodbye by Sarah Dessen is a really inspirational book. Mclean Sweet is the main character of the story. Her parents divorced two years ago when her mom cheated on her dad. The betrayal left Mclean very angry and she was unsure of her true identity. She moved to different towns with her dad because of his job, and to escape the past, she reinvented herself at every school. She was never Mclean, she had been Beth, Lizbeth, and Eliza, but when she moved to Lakeview, she couldn’t escape her true identity - Mclean. This book is different from other Sarah Dessen books where a “hero” saves the main character. In What Happened to Goodbye, Mclean saved herself and fixed her relationship with her mom. Mclean lets her anger out and isn’t scared to rebel for the right of her own choice. It felt positive and I was cheering her on.
