Warriors: Crowfeather's Trial by Erin Hunter

In the aftermath of the Great Battle, Crowfeather's son Breezepelt, who was a Dark Forest cat, is struggling to regain the trust of his Clanmates. Crowfeather isn't helping matters; he isn't a very involved father and ignores his son with every chance he gets. When some pure-white, unusual stoats threaten Wind Clan and Crowfeather's mate, Nightcloud, whom he never truly loved, is presumably killed by the stoats, Crowfeather is forced to work with Breezepelt to find her and defeat the stoats. Will Wind Clan survive? Erin Hunter has outdone herself with her newest novel, Crowfeather's Trial. Combining subjects of family, love, and friendship, her style of writing and her unique interpretation of the feline mind, she will capture readers' attention from the first sentence.

Missing Mazda RX-7 Racer Found 35 Years After Running in Le Mans (article on jalopnik.com)



Very compelling-to-read article written with an interactive, hooking style constantly wanting the reader to keep reading. It details the history of Mazda's legendary rotary history with racing, & this race spec RX-7 with an unimaginably vivid widebody kit is an amazing piece of history.

The Geeks Shall Inherit the Earth by Alexandra Robbins

It had a lot to do with the real world. I could relate to it since I'm in high school and the book revolves around high school kids.

Nevermore by James Patterson

OMG! The best book EVER! 😮!!! (You have to read it. The whole series.)

Amazing, very fun and suspenseful.

A very descriptive book and ongoing book.

The Angel Experiment by James Patterson

AMAZING.

Betty Before X by Ilyasah Shabazz and Renee Watson

It is a REALLY good book.

The Play That Goes Wrong (play)



The Play That Goes Wrong is a genius piece of comedy which showcases both incredible acting + stunning technical feats. The premise: as the title suggests, a play (The Murder at Havershire Manor) featuring a cast of well-meaning but incompetent actors which over the course of two hours proceeds to go very, very wrong. From collapsing sets to unconscious actors, bungled lines to malfunctioning props. TPTGW serves as an illustration of Murphy's Law's fullest application to theatre, while remaining totally believable. TPTGW is an incredible, hilarious performance which will leave even the most wary of theatre goers in stitches.

The Darkest Hour by Caroline Tung Richmond



It was a really good book because instead of it being narrated to you like a story, you got a story the from the person's (Lucie) point of view. There are a lot of twists & turns that make it really suspenseful and entertaining.
