Imagine what it’s like being on a 10 month trial for murder. This is how Lizzie Borden felt during the many months of being on trial of being suspected of killing her father and stepmother. This book is called the Borden Murders, by Sarah Miller, story about thrills and anticipation. Our protagonist, yet antagonist, Lizzie Borden, is believed to be a murderer of killing Andrew Borden and Abby borden. Our character is facing a long trial. A long, boring, but serious subject trial. At the same time, her sister is facing trial as well because she is another suspect believed to kill the parents. The weapon that Lizzie possibly used was known as the “Hoo-Doo” hatchet. It had made 40 fatal blows to Abby and 41 to Andrew by whoever had been handling the hatchet. Things take a good turn (for a little while) around the end when she is pleaded as innocent. But was it true? Was Lizzie really innocent? Because if she was truly innocent, why would she burn a dress with her parent’s blood on it? The world may just never know. Since they did not have fingerprint scanners back in those days. They wanted to just know the truth. All of this stuff happening in the city of fall river, massachusetts, in the late 1800s to early 1900s. Not something I would call fun to be in. It’s weird yet interesting how back in these days, portugese people were always watched as they were not trusted. She was not the only one suspected, as Emma borden as well, was suspected of killing abby and andrew. I would really recommend this book to anybody who really enjoys history, murder stories, or scary stories or horror stories or people who just enjoy massachusetts and it’s history. It gives you thrills and might learn things in reading in it. From 1-10 I would give it a 9.5 because some stuff I couldn’t understand some stuff it was saying, but other than that it was AWESOME!

This is an excellent book it's about a group of scientists that are building an atomic bomb in world war 2 but they are being spied by the soviets and they are racing the germans what will happen read the book to find out.

WOW this is a good book about a boy named Athur and he becomes king I recommend this book to ALL of you he becomes king by pulling a sword out of a stone and their is this wizard called Merlien he is so cool and names Athur king.

It is a very adventurous and exciting book! The story is about a boy named Sing and his older brother Bo helped building an iron railroad. They had to face many obstacles with the crew but they survived. My favourite part is when Sing saves the workers from an illness and saves Bo from a rockslide. In this book, you can learn that people can help do many hard jobs by working together to overcome obstacles. I love this book!!!
