Another installment of Roald Dahl's book boy. After Roald Dahl gets whipped on his back for playing a prank on the candy store owner, his mom sends him to a boarding school in England. But right before that the Dahl family goes to Norway and goes throughout the fjords in the country. This book is amazing for someone that loves real life stories and for readers who want to have constant action in their books.

By is an amazing book about the childhood of norwegian writer Roald Dahl and is a great book for all, especially picky readers, I give this book a 10/10 and hope that you and whoever you share it with will have barrels of laughs hearing about the amazing child hood of Roald Dahl.

Boy by Roald Dahl

The book Boy is by Norwegian writer Roald Dahl. Except in this book he writes about his youth and his adventures as a young child. This book is very detailed and well structured like most Roald Dahl books and fans should read this book. Boy will make you laugh and cry; it is full of emotion. In one scene Roald Dahl and his friends play a trick on the lady running the candy shop by putting a rat in her candy jar which makes a barrel of laughs for the reader. Again, I highly recommend this book.

Roald Dahl's family is from Norway and he due to his father having children with his step wife Roald grew up in a very large family. A few years after Roald's birth his sister past away and while their father was mourning for the sister he died from pneumonia. At age three Roald moved to wales and at about ten years of age moved to England where he attended a private school. After that he joins up in the army to fight Nazis, but that is a different story. Boy is a very good book and I recommend it to adventurous and picky readers.

Catching Fire

For the past few weeks I have been reading through the Hunger Games series and this week I am reading the second book in the Hunger Games series called Catching Fire. Catching Fire is what about what happens to Katniss Everdeen and friends after the Hunger Games are over. In this part of the series the Capitol is really mad at Katniss for defying their plan so to prevent uprisings she must act as the puppet of the capitol by doing what they say. If Katniss can not convince the other districts that she defied the Capitol because she was madly in love then its trouble. But being a puppet means one slip up and the strings are clipped.

This book is an amazing choice for anyone that likes suspense, action, romance and shocks. I hope that you all will like this book as much as I have. So with that in mind please read and recommend to friends.

More of the Hunger Games

Before being sent to the actual battlefield of The Hunger Games, the tributes are sent to the Capitol where they will make their second but most powerful debut to the people of the Capitol. So with the help of a stylist named Cinna, the District 12 team preps Katniss and Peeta for their second debut. This part might actually be my favorite part of the book because this is where they see and meet the other tributes. I also like this part because this is really where the plot gets deepe where we find out more about the emotional life of Katniss and Peeta. As I said before, I really love this book and think that everybody should read it.

I am going talk more about the history of Panem. So a little after now, there are a lot of natural disasters and wars in North America and the USA becomes Panem, a nation with 13 districts which surround a Capitol. Eventually, the districts rebel against the Capitol, but lose. As punishment the Hunger Games are created.

The Hunger Games

The Hunger Games is a book written by the same person that wrote the Gregor the overlander series. It is about a future USA where it is decided into 12 districts led by a ruthless Capitol. These 12 districts which used to be 13 districts rebelled against the Capitol and lost very badly. The first 12 districts were brutally oppressed after the war while the 13th district was destroyed in the rebellion. As a result the Capitol forces all the districts to send a boy and a girl to battle to the death in a match known as the hunger games.

Unfortunately even 74 years after the rebellion the Hunger Games still exists in the district 12 world of Katniss Everdeen. District 12 is a dank and depressing place where the main job is coal mining. Katniss has a mother and a sister named Prim, who she must feed due to her father's death in a mine explosion. But on the choosing day for the Hunger Games, life is going to get a lot worse for Katniss.

The Hunger games is a greatly written book that is full of suspense, romance, treachery, anger, sadness and many other emotions. If reading is tough for you then I recommend you try this book because it sucks you in so fast before you know it you will be on page 200.

For the past few weeks I have been reading a book called Seabiscuit by Laura Hillenbrand. This book is about a racing horse in the 1930s that must overcome physical and mental challenges to win races. This book tells his tale as he goes from a cheap beat up horse raced in a trashy track to one of the fastest racing horses of all time. This book also tells the story of the horse's jockey, a man who went from poor and starving, to a racing legend. This book also tells the tale of the trainer, a man who seldom talked to people, but was rumored to have possessed the ability to speak to horses. Seabiscuit is a great book and I think anybody who reads it will be pulled into to the 1930s world of this horse.

The book starts of with a poor man riding from New York to San Francisco, a man who would eventually own the horse known as Seabiscuit. This man got a lucky break in his finances when he opened a car dealership that made millions. On the other side of this story is a boy in Canada who lives in luxury, the Jockey of Seabiscuit. Whose life is destroyed by a flood that destroys his father's business rendering him poor and helpless. Find out what happens next in Seabiscuit.
