  4. I'm on my 18th book, the book I'm reading is ''Prophecy of the Sisters'' by Michelle Zink.
    Right know I'm in the hundreds. In this book Lia and her twin sister Alice and there brother Herny morn over the loss of there fathers death.
    I can relate to that because I recently lost my dad this year to a heart attack. Listen never wish your parent or parents where dead or that it's funny because IT'S NOT!!! Well any way strange things where happing to Lia and her sister Alice doing strange actions. Well to explain why this happened is because there is an Ancient prophrcy about didvided sisters one good . . . one evil. The good sister is to let souls into heaven and the evil one to not let evil souls enter our world.
    Thats where I am so far.

  10. The book I am reading is called "The Lovely Bones" by Alice Sebold. I am on page 137 in this book, (Chapter 11). The problem in this story is that Suzie Salmon was killed, and no one except her father knows who was responsible. The setting of my book is mostly at the Salmon's house.

  12. I am reading two books now, and I am nearly finished with them both. The titles are "City of Bones by Cassandra Clare," and "Linger" by Maggie Stiefvater. I will be finished with "Linger" today. "Linger" features some of the same characters as it's companion book, "Shiver." Sam & Grace are the main characters, they are both 17. Sam used to a werewolf and Grace is a human girl, who was bitten by a wolf as a child. The werewolves in the book are humans that turn into wolves in the cold parts of the year. Sam was injected with a strand of the virus Meningitis to cure is werewolvism, but now Grace is turning into a wolf. There is also a new wolf, named Cole, who is causing problems for Sam. Cole is also attracted to Isabel, whose brother Jack became a werewolf and later died. The setting of the book is a town called Mercy Falls. It is a really good book, the genre is Realistic Fantasy.

  15. Kiley,

    I have never read any of "The Boxcar Children" books, but I know that my son liked them when he was younger. They sound like good books! For some reason I thought the family was bigger; more children. What do like about the series? Also, I think you might like the Sweet Valley High series, remind me to show them to you sometime. I have lots of books, and they are in a series as well. The main characters are twin girls; 16 yr. old girls Jessica & Elizabeth Wakefield.

  16. The "Boxcar Children" books are really good, Mrs. Hightower. I used to read them all the time, but I havent read one in a while. I loved them! They were SO good. I've never read the "Sweet Valley High" books, though.
