The best book I have read this year probably would be Storm Runners: The Surge. I think the book is so good because it has a lot of action and adventure in it. I like action and adventure because I can really get into them - like Storm Runners: The Surge I can just sit there and be quiet and just can't stop reading.
When I read Storm Runners: The Surge I feel like there's something really important going to happen in the next part and I feel like I am in it. I like the whole series, which is Storm Runners, and I am on the last one, which is Storm Runners: Eruption. I recommend Storm Runners: The Surge because it is pretty much based off the first Storm Runners book.

Alexander said: What Is The Best Book You Have Read This Year?
The best book I have read this year is Nancy Drew The Secret In The Old Attic. The author of the book is Carolyn Keene. The book is about this teenage detective who has to solve a mystery. The mystery is about a guy, named Mr. March who wants to find his son's songs that he hid before he died.
The reason he wants to find the songs is because he wants to publish them so he can earn the money that comes from them for his granddaughter. Nancy comes to try to help find the songs and is told that they are probably in the attic because that is where Mr.March's son worked on them. As she looks for the song's she finds out that someone is trying to steal the songs too. After she looks for the guy who is trying to find the songs too; she becomes unsuccessful then her dad tells her he has a mystery for her to solve also. In the end the two mystery's connect together and Nancy becomes in great danger and may even be killed.
I also think this is a great book because it makes you wonder what is going to happen next. In this book it makes you wonder if she is going to die or if she is going to live. Like one part of the book said " Then you know what it will do to you." I think this makes a person wonder what will happen next in the book.
This book is also my favorite this year because it has a lot of good parts that happen in the book. An example of a good part in the book is that it said " Nancy had expected a hand to be clapped over her mouth, but nothing happened. In relief she called out again, saying her flashlight was not working." I think this is a very good part in the book because it makes the book interesting and makes you want to read more.
The Secret In The Old Attic is the best book I have read this year because it makes you wonder and it has lots of great parts in the book. The suspense and excitement in the book is what makes me like it so much! So far this is my favorite book I have read this year.

The best book I have read this year is "Skeleton Creek" by Patrick Carman. The reason I like this book is because it is full of excitement, weird, mysterious, and cool parts. One reason why this is a good book is because you can go to the website called www.sarahfincher.com and type in the password, leonardoshelby. I don't know why, but the videos in this book are awesome and scary because you never know whats going to happen next. Sarah, Ryan, and Fit's are trying to destroy the crossbones because they kill people. They have to find clues to tell them where to go and the clues will help them find out what their trying to get. When Sarah goes on all of these road trips shes finds some very interesting things.

The best book that I have read this year would probably be The Maze Runner. The author of The Maze Runner is James Dashner. Even though I am not finished with The Maze Runner, it has still been the best book that I have read this year because it is filled with a lot of adventure and action!!!!
The Maze Runner is about a boy named Thomas. He is about 16 years old and one day arrives in the Glade in a box and does not remember a single memory of his past. In the Glade there are a lot of boys Thomas's age and they do not remember about their past either. The boys told Thomas that surrounding the Glade is a big maze that they have been trying to solve for two years. Inside the maze are these big animals named grievers. Grievers have big spikey things on their back and if you get stung by one you have to go back to a hospital in the Glade to get treated by people so you can stay alive. This book has great adventure and excitement!!!!
The Maze Runner is in a series of four books. The first book is The Maze Runner, the second book is called The Scorch Tails, the third book is called The Death Cure and the fourth book is called The Kill Order. The Maze Runner series is a great series to get into and I can't wait to start the second book.
For more info on The Maze Runner Series go to jamesdashner.com.

The best book I have read this year is The Abduction. The reason why I love this book so much is because of all of the great detail in it. In every paragraph there is so much detail that it makes me want to keep on reading and reading until the book is over! There is so much detail I literally feel as if I'm in the book with the main characters, Aiden and Meg. Not only does this book have detail, but it also has excitement! This book keeps your attention the whole way through. Once that book kept me reading for over two hours! I read so much and I got so into that book that I didn't even remember what time it was. The reason this book is so exciting is because there is a lot of action and mystery. I was always excited to read what happened next. Nobody could keep me away from that book! If you are looking for a book with action, mystery, adventure and excitement this would be the book for you! This is definitely the best book I've ever read and I bet you would like it too!

What Is The Best Book You Have Read This Year?
The best book I have read this year would be Roberto Clemente by Paul Robert Walker. Because it is a great book about his life as a boy to as a MLB player playing for the Pittsburgh Pirates.It's a great book filled with unsuspected action and drama.
One example of how this book is the best book I have read this year is it tells how hard it was to get his three thousandth hit, how he led his team to world series, how he became one of the highest paid athletes in the league , and how he became the MVP. And this why it's my best book I have Read this year !!!

What is the best book you read this year?
I have read many books this year and the best book I have read this year is Divergent. I think it is a really good book because it has non stop action. You never wan't to stop reading after you start. It's like the book is trying to get your very best attention and it does from the first page to the last. You wouldn't want to put the book down.
The second best book I have read is probably Matched. I also think this is an really good and exciting book. It also has action but not alot.
The third best book I have read this year is Warriors Into The Wild. This book is exciting with alot of adventure and fun. It also has tons of action and non stop reading to the end.

I would have to say the best book that I have read this year is The Last Dogs. You might have read it before it is located in the book at Salt Creek. It is very interesting it has action and lots of adventure and drama. If you go to www.thelastdogs.com/#!/page_book. Then press menu on the side you will see the sires. It also will even show the characters , author and a quiz you can take. You can read about the first book. I would not go on to the first chapter about Bright and Empty that is the second book.

You asked me what my favorite book this year is? So I'm gonna answer that! My favorite book this year is " Because Of Anya. This is my favorite book because It's so sad. The book is about this girl that has a disease. I'm not gonna tell you the disease because it will give up the story. So she has a disease and something goes really wrong in physical education. Well any way the girl in the book this girl named Keely wants to help Anya with her disease. This is a really extraordinary book. It is happy and sad at the same time.

I have read a lot of books this year and it's really hard too decide, but I have too say one of the best books I have read this year is, Warriors Tallstar's Revenge. It is one of my favorite books because it has battles, adventure, mystery, revenge, some deaths , and secrets waiting too be discovered. It is about a warrior named Talltail and his journey too find the person that killed his father and get his revenge. In his journey he encounters some strange cats and other creatures. Along the way he makes a new new friend and little did he know, his new friend's kit would grow up too be a very important character. Warriors Tallstar's Revenge is just one of the books I have read this year, but it's one of the best.

The best books I have read this year is The Maze Runner series and The House of Dark Shadows series. I can't pick a favorite between the two of those books. My third favorite book I have read this year is Tall'Stars Journey.
The Maze Runner is about a people who send kids teenagers up in a maze. The teenagers think if they can find the code to the maze they get to go home. But in order to get home they have to go through the maze. In the maze are these things called Grievers. They are part animal part machine their body resembles to a BIG slug. With a light coating of hair. Underneath that hair is a thick layer of slime. Every night the door to the maze closes so the Grievers can not get in (the doors close by them self.) But one night Thomas the main character gets trapped in the maze with his friends Minho and Alby then the doors close and they will not open till dawn (the grievers come out at night)........
I hope you get a chance to read this book, I even convinced my mom to read it.

I have lots of books this year like Heat, The Big Field, The Underdogs and Game Changers but my favorite is The Buckeyes Championship Season by Paul Keels. It's my favorite book for many reasons. For one thing it's about sports and Ohio State and there two of my favorite things. Also because I'd heard and seen somethings about it and the book gave me ten times more information with the details of the W's [Who, What, Where, When, Why and How].
You might think why am I talking so much about detail. It's because Paul Keels was a radio announcer. He was at every game so he knew it play by play. He described what it felt like and what it looked like. He made me feel like I was watching the game. It didn't stop there. When the players were off the field too he was saying what they were doing whether a suspension or an inquiry.
I learned stuff I never knew before like how many close games they had like Purdue, Michigan and Miami. I also didn't know about the championship game. I didn't know about the hype and what it meant. Also what happened in that game how in the third overtime Ohio State missed the pass and Miami championship hats and shirts came out until they through a flag.
That is why The Buckeyes Championship Season is my favorite book this year. It taught me stuff about that season had never know before and in incredible detail. It's probably one of my favorite books ever.

Shake, Rattle And HURL!!!!!
The book Shake, Rattle and Hurl written by R.L STINE is one of the most exciting, funniest, greatest, books I have ever read. From the second you open it up until the last page I am so excited that I almost scream to death!!
One example from my book is that Bernie Bridges is in love with April-May June (the hottest girl in the Rotten school) . Bernie Bridges is the 5th grossest boy in Rotten school, and April-May June does not love or like Bernie Bridges.
Next Bernie was walking back for the dinning hall and Bernie saw April-May June standing under a tree and Bernie said I like what you did to your hair. Is it a new hair clip or something and April-May June said ” it is not a hair clip I have bird poop in my hair”. She said that she is never ever standing under a tree again. She was trying to go to the shower to wash the bird poop out of her hair and Bernie kept talking and talking. So April-May just keep walking to the Nyce House.
Another example from the book is that Chipmunk is so shy he inhales when he sneezes, and he even blushes when he’s asleep.Bernie was trying to find who was playing that guitar and he ask Nosebleed but he said that he can’t play the guitar because it give him nosebleeds. Then he went into Billy the Brains room, ( he is the smartest kid in Rotten school) Billy said who’s there and Bernie said it’s me. Bernie ask why are you blindfolded? Billy said to make it harder to do homework. Were you just playing the guitar? Billy said no and as soon as Billy said no Bernie was already out of his room and out in the hallway. Then Bernie was in Chipmunk’s room saying Chipmunk, Chipmunk are you here and Chipmunk said nothing . Bernie looked every where except for the …. So if you want to know where Chipmunk is then read Shake, Rattle, and Hurl and that is the best book I have read this year. But do not read this book first there are more before it, so read the other books first.
