The book I chose is titled "The Genius Files". Its regarding a boy and girl named Coke, and Pepsi McDonald. Yes, these are their actual names. They go on an adventure to help Coke jump off a cliff so he cross it off his bucket list. But obviously, it's not that simple. Coke, and Pepsi get tangled in a mess of missions they must complete. While still trying to live a normal pre-teen life and hide it from there parents. You see the McDonalds twins are actually kid undercover agents trying to stop the bad guys from taking over the city, and their actually pretty good; most of the time. Honestly, I feel that this book is going to be a exciting read, and I can't wait to share more with you guys.
In my opinion I feel that the character Pepsi McDonald is kind of a bratty, sister that is very intelligent. She can always get out of a sticky situation. Like when she broke her dads treadmill and but put Cheeto dust around the handels to make it seem like Coke was eating Cheetos on the treadmill. Or that one time when she changed the files to make coke go first in the school talent show. Even though that sound extremely funny she still can be a brat around Coke. This is why I feel these traits go with the character Pepsi McDonald.

Kid vs.Squid Q4 Blog Post #7 - Summary and Thoughts
This book I'm reading is about a boy named Thatcher Hill. He is sick and tired of seeing fake mythical creatures and wanted to see a real live one. You see, Thatcher works at his uncles museum with a lot mythical creatures around him. He gets pretty border around the museum he notices a lot of things, and I mean a lot of things. He now finds people stealing some of the artifacts, so all of sudden Thatcher is on an adventure to find the criminal who stole the artifact. Can Thatcher find the criminal who stole the artifact?
I really feel that this book is going to be an interesting read. I say this because not only is the title of the book very "eye-catching" but the note that Thatcher's Uncle left was really sillily. But I am worried that the story it self well get boring and well be repetitive to most stories I've already read. But luckily from what I've read so far I haven't noticed this yet. These are just a few thoughts of what I will eventually will have of my book "Kid vs. Squid".

Ungifted Q4 Blog Post #6 - Summary & Connections
I've just finished my book "Ungifted" and I just have to say that this book is my favorite, and that's saying a lot from the books I've read. Donovan ended up getting a close finish, and was nervous because he wanted to be the one to drive Tin Man; but he believed that his friend could do it, and win for the gifted. Once the competition had ended, Donovan had given a very distinctive quote that kind of stuck with me and made me wonder. He said that, "It was that one part the ancestory.com couldn't explain. I was working to controlling it, but sooner or later it would show up again and get me into twice as much trouble. You don't have to be gifted to know that." The reason this quote stuck with me is because I didn't understand what he meant by "controlling it." So it took me awhile to really think about what the author had wrote, until it hit me. Donovan must was talking about controlling his habit to misbehave in school; and I thought this way because of only reason he was at that school. It was because he "ungifted" (hint the title). But this what I believe to be the explanation of the author quote.
In my story of Ungifted, a character named Noah reminds me about the book that our class had once read called holes. It was one of the main characters friends named Zero; Zero was calm quiet and would always get in trouble just like Noah. However although similar, they are also are some differences. Noah was smart and kind, Zero was liar and thief. But even a liar and a thief can be intelligent. Making bad choices does'nt limit ones ability to be intelligent. Though Noah and the character Zero from holes have some different traits, they share some similar characteristics.
This was a book that I would definetly reccomend to my peers and friends. It kept my interest from the beginning to the end. This is a book that just about any kid could relate to. A trouble teen who thinks he's slick however someone sees through this kid and realizes that he's not as bad as people or even he thinks he is.
