Day 30...The final day!

Day 30 (3-28 Saturday) My LAST DAY!!!  Today I read and finished “Adventures Wanted, book 3”. It took me about an hour to finish the last 3 chapters. I really like how Alex goes ballistic when his horse dies or his friend is hurt; when this happens he incinerates the monster that caused them pain. I thought this was a really good book and I definitely recommend this series to all fantasy lovers.

I also read the first 2 books in the “Spiderwick Chronicles” series. These books are kind of small, but they are very interesting and fantasy-like. I will definitely continue to read this series.

Day 29 - I Funny

Day 29 (3-27 Friday) Today I started and finished a book called “I Funny” which is about a boy in a wheelchair who wants to be a stand-up (or should I say sit-down) comedian.  This book has 303 pages and took me about an hour to read.  There are lots of pictures in it which is why it went so fast.

Day 26-28 Albrek's Tomb

Day 26 (3-24 Tuesday) Today I read the first 8 chapters (124 pages) in “Adventures Wanted, book 3 – Albrek’s Tomb”. In this quest they must find the dwarfin Ring of Searching to find new mines for the dwarfin kingdom before the old ones go dry.

Day 27 (3-25 Wednesday) Today I read 1 hour and a half (6 chapters, pages 109-209) in “Adventures Wanted, book 3”.

Day 28 (3-26 Thursday) Today I read for about 2 hours (7 chapters, pages 235-399) in “Adventures Wanted, book 3”.  This book is just as interesting as the last two.  In each of these books, Alex encounters at least one mythological creature.  In this one he encounters cintars, brownies, sphinxes, as well as a gryphin and a nagis.

Days 23 to 25 Adventures Wanted Book 2

Day 23 (3-21 Sat) Today I started reading “Adventures Wanted, book 2, but this time there not fighting a dragon, they’re going into a magic tower guarded by a sphinx and griffins to reclaim the Horn of Moran, a horn that can only be sounded by the true king. I read for 1 hour and 35 minutes (chapters 1-5, 78 pages).

Day 24 (3-22 Sunday) Today I read 3 hours (chapters 5-16 page 79-292 of “Adventures Wanted, book 2. That’s a lot of reading!

Day 25 (3-23 Monday) Today I read the last 4 chapters in “Adventures Wanted, book 2. I had even more fun reading this one than book 1 because Alex kept turning his enemies into pigs and donkeys!

day 20-22 The Supernaturialist

Day 20 (3-18 Wen.) today I read 1 hour (chapters 3 through 5, pages 57-127) of “Supernaturalist”.

Day 21 (3-19 Thur.) Today I read chapters 6-8 (pages 126-200) for about an hour and 30 minutes. In those chapters they were captured and brought to a space station where they found the parasite’s weakness… radioactive energy.

Day 22 (3-20th Friday) Today I read for 30 minutes ( chapters 9 and 10, pages 233-267)and managed to finish “Supernaturalist”. That didn’t take long at all!

day 18-19 finishing The Peculiar

Day 18 (3/16) Today I finished “The Peculiar”. I didn’t really like it and don’t quite recommend it. I couldn’t keep up really, and it would switch who was telling the story mid-sentence. It was entertaining but very confusing.

******************************************************************   Day 19 (3-17) Today I started “The Supernaturalist” by Eion Colfer. This Book is about a future city and a boy named Cosmo hill. After escaping an orphanage that tests weird medicines on the kids, he joined a group of teens fighting a vires to save all human life in there city. It is very interesting.
