Book 2: One false note

2009-11-22T06:02:00.000-08:00

Sorry, I had some stuff to do and it have taken some time to get to the book 2 review.
After plowing through the first 5 books, I could get my hands on, I read book 2 again. I couldn't remember all of it after reading the next 3 books, and I found that it was still a great read the second time around.

What is it about.,
The clue from Paris leads Amy and Dan to Austria, and on to Venice, Italy.
The book is well written and totally follow the style of the first book. It's really exciting.
I would give this book at least 4.5 out of 5 =)

39 Clues book 6: In Too Deep

2009-10-21T03:44:00.000-07:00

In Too Deep

is written by Jude Watson and will be released on November 3.

Here is a resume of what will happen, from wikiPedia:
"Are some secrets better left buried? As Amy and Dan track the next clue to a
remote corner of the world, they make shocking discoveries about the source of the Cahills' power and
the mystery of their parents' deaths.

And as the threat of the mysterious Madrigals grows real, one of the clue-hunters makes the ultimate sacrifice. Amy and Dan have to decide how much they're willing
to risk, and what they are fighting for. Can they avenge their parents - or are they following their fatal path?
his story will take place in Australia and off the coast of Burma."

This sounds very exciting. I have just finished book 2, when I get to book 6 I'll put a review up.

Amazon has a $3.44 discount on The 39 Clues Book 6: In Too Deep

This title will be released on November 3, pre-order and make sure that you have a copy = )

39 Clues book 1: The maze of bones

2009-10-19T07:55:00.000-07:00

The maze of bones is the first book of the 39 clues series.

The Cahill family is a large family and has included some of the most influential people and greatest thinkers of the last 300 years. Apparently the Cahils have a great legacy, that has led these people to greatness.

In the first book we are introduced to Amy and Dan. At their grandmothers funeral they are given the choice between 1.000.000 dollars or the first clue that could lead them to the Cahill family legacy.

The book is very well written, and I felt like reading a Dan Brown book, written for young adults.
It is both highly entertaining and informative. I got the book on sale, just wanted to see what the fuss was all about. The book was devoured in no time, and now I have almost finished book 2!

The perspective in the book change between the characters, also some of the Amy and Dan's competitors. This doesn't ruin anything, it actually gives the other characters more depth.

I feel that I can only give this book my highest reccomendations!!!
