Great book👌. It shows seven years of Callies childhood up until her sixteenth birthday when she was assigned to blow up her grandfather Kamal. Lots of twists and turns. Her life spirals downhill after she finds out the truth about her dad. Jude found his revenge plan but it was foiled when it came right back at him.

This book is hands down the best book ever! I saw it sitting in my teachers book shelf and gave it a chance. IT IS THE BEST BOOK EVER! It is filled with so many surprises and will give you the chills. You will not regret reading this book unless ghost and murder cases scare you. I never wanted the book to end. EVER! I can't wait to read her bad girls don't die series. It has to be just as good. Doesn't it? I think YES! Any who I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a love/ horror/comedy books.

"Does everyone in here have a demon inside them?" Meet Liam, an eleven year old boy, who narrates this story. Liam's narration of this book gives it a unique, but fresh style to read from. Liam moved to a new town, Swanbury, to be closer to his grandmother who has dementia or has a demon inside her, has to start everything all over again... to making new friends and dealing l with his grandmother. It starts off with Liam finding a top secret diary from Margaret Williams (his grandmother) when she was thirteen years old... This significant diary with a gargoyle changes everything. When Daisy, their dog escaped, Liam ran to find out where she went, where Liam was led to a gargoyle. A stone bird gargoyle... where this particular gargoyle was in his grandmother's diary.... Coincidence? Yeah, I don't think so. So Liam begins his first day of school with Ms. Culpepper, where if you have the egg, you can only talk. After discussions about the World War II and making up their own stories, Liam learns a lot... but there are bullies that tease and taunts Liam. Matt who is Gary's son... Remember that Gary is Liam's mom's friend... Where Liam and Matt both found out that their parents are good friends.... Nothing is going to change (Matt is still going to bully Liam).... After piecing each stories from the diary, Liam finally got some theories that explained, how the gargoyles came to be... but you know what else? Ms. Culpepper knows what Stonebird is and the egg... Well Liam's grandmother gave it to Ms. Culpepper. After having to deal with Matt and his friends bullying him, Liam tells a story, which causes Matt to get hurt, by the gargoyle... Liam finds out Matt's mom also has dementia... Matt and Liam thinking to find a plan to fix everything involving the egg... things go quite well at first, and then some parts collapses.... You see, "happy memories are powerful things," and we should cherish these happy memories. I really enjoyed this story, it had a mix of fantasy and realistic fiction, which made this story to be really intriguing. Stonebird also gives a powerful message that everything won't always go your way, so instead have hope, and cherish what you have right now.

I didn't find this interesting. It drags on and is confusing after so many dull twists and turns. I had to read this for my english class and it certianly was not a fun time for my classmates and I. If you actually enjoy boxing and want to take it on, maybe this will inspire you and make you determined. The writing wasn't bad, just the whole plot of the book. James seemed more like a nuisance with his drug addiction to the reader than actually caring for him. It seemed as though the author had forgotten all of the bad decisions Alfred had made. All of a sudden he is packing his stuff and leaving, while in the next chapter he is sparring with Jelly. Also him at the party doing weed and drinking, not running, and then he is in the gym in perfect shape.

my favorite book by far its just a awesome book and i very so recommend reading this book its amazing.

i want to read this bookkkkk!!!!!!!!!

I love this book but I have not read the whole thing I'm on chapter 5 and I have enjoyed reading it. I liked when she said she wants to get in Mrs. Dirty laundry that was a funny part of the book.

Its a great book but at times the timing in the book switching from day to night or vise versa.

What can I say about Struck by Lightning? First of all, it's nothing like what you would think. The book isn't the fantasy of a high school nobody; it's the struggle of a young adult fighting his way through his messed-up life. This book is the diary of Carson Philip's sorry life and the things he does to make it better. It's hard, though; his dad left his mother when Carson was ten, his mother is an alcoholic junkie, and his grandmother, the one person he truly loves, is in an assisted-living facility because of Alzheimer's. Not only that, but the world seems determined to make sure that Carson can't get into his dream college. Even his school life is terrible. In his words, Carson knows that he is "the only person in this town whose IQ is larger than [their] shoe size". His school newspaper is failing; the seniors that took such great care of it left the previous year, and the new members don't care enough to actually write anything. But after a humiliating incident at homecoming, Carson has had enough. Apparently, the college he wants to go to now wants more than clubs; they want a full literary magazine. Carson isn't popular. He can't make people do things himself, and so he turns to the one tool he has left: blackmail. Yes, this book may have some things that younger kids can't handle. But for anybody who is a teenager or high-schooler, this book is a funny, dark, and relatable story of Carson Phillips' journey through senior year of high school. And trust me: you will not believe the straight-out-of-left-field ending. This book changed the way I looked at life, and I'm pretty sure it'll change the way you look at life too.
