Payback Time
By Carl Deuker
What would you do if you found out information that could risk someone's life? Would you keep it to yourself or would you tell someone? The title of my book is Payback Time the author is Carl Deuker. The book takes place in a big city called Philadelphia and on a football field. The main character's name is Daniel but everyone calls him Mitch because they think he looks like the Michelin Man. He is a reporter for the Lincoln Light. His best friend in the story is a girl named Kimi. She is the school photographer for the Lincoln Light. Mitch and Kimi also submit their stories about the school football games to the sports editor, Chet the Jet, at the Seattle Times. Their stories are usually about a cornerback named Angel Marichal. Angel is a great player but doesn’t get a lot of playing time. Mitch doesn’t understand why Coach McNulty doesn’t play him a lot. Also, Chet the Jet always cuts the parts about Angel out of the stories Mitch sends him. Mitch decides he wants to find out why. Mitchs calls the town where Angel is from but gets a bad feeling from the person he is talking to. Mitch doesn’t give him a lot of information except that Angel now goes to Lincoln High. Mitch couldn’t shake the bad feeling he had. He went to Coach McNulty to ask questions. Coach said to meet me at a local restaurant and he would tell me everything. Coach told Mitch that when Angel was around 12 he saw 2 gangs have a shoot out. There was a boy in the middle of the shoot out and was hit. Angel ran over and pulled the boy to safety but it was too late. The boy died. Angel told the cops who the gang members were and they went to jail. Now the other gang members are after Angel to kill him. Mitch realizes the guy he talked to must be part of the gang. He now needs to figure out how to fix what he has done. Mitch realizes that the gang will come to the championship gang to hurt Angel. The players tunnel is the best place for the gang to corner him. Mitch sees the gang car in the parking lot next to the back fence. Before the game Mitch silently crawled along the back fence to the car. Then he laid down under the car and the doors opened. He waited for the gang members to get back into the car then he put a knife into one of the tires. He left the knife in the tire until it slowly went flat. Mitch then silently crawled back along the fence and went to the game. Lincoln High won the game. Mitch was still nervous that something bad was going to happen. After the game he went to the players tunnel to see if everything was ok. When everyone was coming out Angel and Coach McNulty were the last to come out. They said their goodbyes to each other. When it was all over Mitch went to his car, looked over at the gang car and saw the guys trying to fix their flat tire. Mitch felt like a hero for saving Angels life. Angel moved away and we never saw the gang members again. I would recommend this book to anyone that loves suspenseful or action/sports books. This book had a lot of twists and turns. There were a lot of surprises. They did a great job of going into detail about the football games as they happened.

Cupcake Diaries 3 Books in 1!: Katie and the Cupcake Cure; Mia in the Mix; Emma on Thin Icing
By Coco Simon
I really LOVE these books I read all of them up to 29 if you have never read the cupcake diaries series then I recommend. The first is about Katie going to her friend in the mean and popular group which is hard.And the second book is about Mia getting invited to the mean girls group. And I think you should discover the third book on your own. I think I will give this a 5 star.

Thirteen Days of Midnight
By Leo Hunt
Duffy
Loved this book! It was impossible to put it down. Necromancy is not something I would read about, but this book made me love it. The story was unique and kept me hooked. It moved at a natural pace, making an easier read than an unbearably slow or overly fast book. THe characters were highly realistic which made them easy to relate to. Luke and Elza felt like real high schoolers which made them much easier to connect to. Overall, this book is definitely going on my favorites shelf. Ten out of ten would read again.
The Book of Mormon (1830 Edition): An Account Written by the Hand of Mormon, Upon Plates Taken from the Plates of Nephi: The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints
By Joseph Smith
The Book of Mormon is the best book there is! Lehi is told by God that his family must leave Jerusalum. He tells the people of Jerusalum that they must leave, for the city will be destroyed. Nobody listens to him. Lehi's family journey in the wilderness, away from Jerusalum. Lehi is told by God that they must return to Jerusalum to retrieve the brass plates. His sons, Laman, Lemuel, Nephi, and Sam go back to Jerusalum to get the plates of brass. They are delivered out of the hands of Laban by God. They journey further into the wilderness, in search of the promised land. They find the Liahona, a certain compass sort of thing. When they are being righteous, it works. When they are murmuring and dwindle in unbelief, it does not work. Laman and Lemuel murmur the most. They do not believe in the power of God, even though it has been shown to them many times. Nephi is commanded to build a ship by God, to sail to the promised land. You'll have to read the book (or go to the LDS church) to find out the rest. Note: This review does not do justice to the actual book. It is the most true story there ever was. I highly recommend you read it and follow it's teachings. They will bless your life. They blessed mine.
