Execution: Escape from Furnace 5
By Alexander Gordon Smith
This book reveals so much! I can't believe people gave up on the series before reading this. It is so good. I hate to see the end of such a great series but at least Alex is okay. He has gone through so much and I hope that he finally can just relax, he already saved the world more times than most people know.
Death Sentence: Escape from Furnace 3
By Alexander Gordon Smith
It will keep you wanting to read more. I couldn't stop reading it and it was very addicting. Each chapter left me wanting more. I would spend hours reading this book if only it would last that long.
Solitary: Escape from Furnace 2
By Alexander Gordon Smith
Almost all the Furnace books are the same, Alex tries to escape from Furnace. All the books are really the best books ever, they are always putting you at the edge of your seat and this book is what picks you up after the first book's cliff hanger.

By Llewellyn, Tom
Very curious what the tasks are to rescue gramps and stay alive!
Finding the Worm (Twerp Sequel)
By Mark Goldblatt
Finding the worm has a complicated title, but it has heart. This story is about Julian, "Jules", Tweski, a Jewish person living in Flushing, Queens. It is a superb book, of decent writing. In the end, the themes in this book were very thought-provoking. The style, in regards to using many commas and ands, added to the experience of being a relatable book. A brief description: Quentin, "Quick Quentin", has a tumor. The kids on the block, Lonnie, Shlomo, Julian, Eric, and Howie, who live in the Dorado House or such named buildings, go on with their lives, and Julian, whose Bar Mitzvah is coming up, learns from the rabbi (a very good character with witty lines) about death. All the while, Julian Tweski records his thoughts about life and all the events that happen during this time. It was interesting reading a book that portrayed the 70s and life in New York so well, painting a vivid picture of the activities of those living in this time. Many of the landmarks described within this book I could find on the Internet; likewise with the baseball players. It's a sequel to the book TWERP but you don't have to read that one (it does give you some spoilers though). All in all, a sad and thoughtful book at the end, but some middle parts, describing their daily activities, were a little "meh". It is a contemplative realistic fiction book with good dialogue.
Beyond the Bright Sea

This book is really good. It is about a girl named Crow, and her real parents put her in a crib and sent her off in the ocean. She lives with a man named Osh, who took Crow in. The two of them live on an island.
Lucky Dog: Twelve Tales of Rescued Dogs

Gold
I think this book is really good. All twelve authors that wrote it did an amazing job. All twelve stories are very exciting, suspenseful, and heart warming. It'll make you want to read more and picture the story in your mind.
