January 5, 2011 Final Blog

Hey, it's Keith back for my last and final blog. I'm currently reading //Murder on the Eiffel Tower// by Claude Izner. The brand-new, shiny Eiffel Tower is the pride and glory of the 1889 World Exposition. But one sunny afternoon, as visitors are crowding the viewing platforms, a woman collapses and dies on this great Paris landmark. Can a bee sting really be the cause of death? Or is there a more sinister explanation?

Hey, Keith Schreiber here back for one last blog before winter break! I'm reading //Hit and Misdemeanor// by William Gleason. This novel tells the story of a prime-time television crime show featuring two young female cops in the leading role, and with the show getting high ratings, the girls are not only rich and cute but rolling in fan letters. There are only two things standing between them and complete happiness. First, they can't stand each other and second, someone is trying to kill them. Suddenly the television fun and games change, from make-believe land to a real-life situation, and just as suddenly the two girls discover that their costume "uniforms" have to stand up to the harsh scrutiny of a killer who really means it.

Keith Schreiber here and I'm reading the latest in the Diary of a Wimpy Kid series, //Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Ugly Truth// by Jeff Kinney. Greg Heffley is back in his latest adventure, which is that he's always been in a hurry to grow up. But is getting older really all it's cracked up to be? Greg suddenly finds himself dealing with the pressures of boy-girl parties, increased responsibilities, and even the awkward changes that come with getting older-all without his best friend, Rowley, at his side. Can Greg make it through on his own? Or will he have to face the "ugly truth?"

Keith Schreiber here back for 2nd quarter! This time, I'm reading //Boot Camp// by Todd Strasser. This novel tells the story of Garret (last name unknown), who, in the middle of the night, is kidnapped from his home and taken to Lake Harmony, a disciplinary boot camp for troubled teens. Beaten, humiliated, and stripped of his pride, Garret is abused almost to his breaking point. He won't be allowed to leave until he admits his "mistakes" and repents completely...whether he's guilty or not. Then Garret hears whispers of an escape plot. It's incredibly risky-if he's caught, the consequences will be unthinkable-but it may be his only way out.

Hey, it's Keith Schreiber, and I'm reading //Diary of a Wimpy Kid: Rodrick Rules by Jeff Kinney.// Greg Heffley is back for another year of middle school, but whatever you do, don't ask him how he spent his summer vacation, because he definitely doesn't want to talk about it. As Greg enters the new school year, he's eager to put the past behind him... and one event in particular. Unfortunately for Greg, his older brother, Rodrick, knows all about the incident Greg wants to keep under wraps. But secrets have a way of getting out... especially when a diary is involved.
