Eddie Red Undercover: Mystery in Mayan Mexico
By Marcia Wells
I read Eddie Red, Undercover: Mystery in Mayan Mexico by: Marcia Wells. This amazing story is about a boy named Edward, known as Eddie Red when under cover. Edward has to find out who stole a gold mask from his friend in Mayan Mexico. Eddie is a cop who can draw lifelike photos and has photographic memory. Eddie and his friends search pyramids, museums and homes to find out who stole the mask and framed his father. Out of 1-3, I rate this book a 3. I rate this book a 3 out of 3 because it is action packed with a few twists. One criticism is that this book is a sequel, and unless you read the first book the beginning can be confusing. I think this is realistic fiction, even if it's a small stretch. I think it's realistic fiction because it's about a family who goes to Mexico and tours Mayan Mexico while his father is framed. I think if you enjoy Mexican history, like adventure, and love crime you would enjoy this fascinating book. An internal conflict occurs when Eddie's father is framed and Eddie has to fight himself and say he'll find who framed his father. This also has many external conflicts, man vs man when Eddie fights a thief, man vs society when the government blames Eddie's father, etc.
Somebody Else's Summer
By Jean Little
I really love this book. Alex and Sam switch summers. Sam is athletic so she trades with Alex for the riding camp, so Alex can read all she wants. 5 stars. Jean Little has made a wonderful book stuffed with happines, suspense, cliffhangers, mystery, sadness, and more. This is my first Jean Little book and I want to read another one. Somebody Else's Summer is about 2 girls who do not like where they are going for the summer. Alex and Sam risk spending the entire summer with different names, people, activities, and more. I am surprised no one has commented on this book yet because it is amazing. If I were Alex or Sam I would have done the same thing. I think it was brave of them to switch. In the middle of the book they meet old Mr. Carr who is keeping their secret safe. Mr. Carr dies in the book. All in all this book is amazing and you should read it.
All That's Missing
By Sarah Sullivan
I kind of liked this book. I wasn't really into it but I read it anyway. I read two books before finishing it . I wouldn't recommend it. Thee characters need more personality and happiness. Arlo's grandfather wanders in his memory. He can't tell past from present sometimes and ends up in the hospital. Arlo has to go to a shelter for orphans but he runs away to another state to live with his grandma. He ends up living with her at the end.

Whisper. Chrissie Keighery
By Chrissie Keighery
I really liked the theme of this book because it showed the perspective of someone that is usually regarded as a 'handicap'. The author's detailed description shows how hard it is to be a deaf teenager. An Izzy must-read ;-)
