Alex's Fourth Summary/The 39 Clues: Into The Gauntlet

The 39 Clues: Into The Gauntlet

By: Margaret Peterson Haddix

"Into The Gauntlet" is the tenth book in the 39 clues series. I think that this is one of my favorite books in the series so far because of it's main point of the book . Dan and Amy both return back to London for another clue hunt and they have to right down most things they do on their trip in another country. The clue is that they both are searching for a valuable coin that has a script on it, the only way the you can see the script is in person. The only problem that they both have is that the person that has the coin is a pet monkey called Isabel Kabra which is weird because it's a monkey and not a person. It's pretty smart on how they planned it but the guy who put the coin on the monkey is anonymous so know one knows who he is, Dan and Amy now have to find many clues in their trip. 

The type of genre for this book is a novel, it's half and half with novel and with adventure which is something I personally like in a book. What I don't like about the book is that the author gave up on some of the interesting parts in the book. What I mean by the author giving up on the interesting parts is that as soon as you get into a scene the author goes ahead and switches the mood in the scene which makes me annoyed. I have read a genre like novel/adventure and I like it, I think it's something that I can really get into and can always read again. I always enjoy each book that comes out in the series because of it's mysterious clues and stories and I would recommend it to someone. I'm very excited to see if I can be able to read the 11th book in the series and I cannot wait to get my hands on it. 

The Treasure of Lemon Brown

Lemon Brown 

My response about "The Treasure of Lemon Brown" is that it's a story about a kid named Greg that ignores things that his father does says about his job in the past. Greg doesn't really pay attention to any of the things his father is saying like Greg's father is telling him to be successful in life but Greg is a kid and he just doesn't wanna pay attention. Greg goes and find a guy that's "homeless" named "Sweet Lemon Brown" and listens to him. They were both in a dark and secluded warehouse when they met. Lemon Brown was talking to Greg and was telling him that he should listen to his father telling him these stories, seconds later they both hear a sound... They hear a noise in a dark and scary place at the time and they don't know what it is so Lemon Brown told Greg to go and leave because Lemon Brown didn't want Greg to get hurt or anything at the time. I think when Lemon Brown told Greg some advice Greg really understood it and took all of his knowledge he just gathered and put it to use. Now when Greg is listening to his father he should be thankful that his father is still around because Lemon Brown had a loss on his own and that stood out for Greg.  

Alex's Third Summary/The 39 Clues: The Emperors Code

The 39 Clues: The Emperors Code

By: Gordon Korman

The Emperors Code is the 8th book in the 39 Clues series and it is a really good book. My summary about the book is that Dan Cahill is being kidnapped by two people and Dan is being dumped into a lollipop factory by the two kidnappers. The owner for the lollipop family listens to Dans story and let's him stay at the factory and treats him nicely by giving Dan his own home. While all of this is happening Amy Cahill and Nellie are searching for Dan but don't manage too. Amy and Nellie try and try to look for Dan but never find him until... almost to the end of the book. I don't wanna spoil any more of the book but overall I really like the book and I would recommend to anyone that enjoys the 39 Clues series.

Alex's Second Summary/Under The Blood-Red Sun

Under The Blood-Red Sun

By: Graham Salisbury 

Under The Blood-Red Sun is an amazing book by Graham Salisbury. The genre of the book is a fictional novel because it includes some history of pearl harbor. The main character in this story is Toni a Japanese American boy. Toni lives in Hawaii and he witnessed pearl arbor in Japan. Their was a lot of racism going on at the time because of the government and especially around the time pearl harbor was happening. Toni's mom gets shot and Toni's friend Sanji gets killed by Americans. I totally recommend checking out the book I enjoyed the book, check your local library or Amazon and check it out.
