Scoop II

So I'm almost done with Scoop now, I have a little less than a hundred pages. Basically what's happening is a anchor woman has gone missing, and thats all part of a way bigger story that the reporters are uncovering.

Scoop is another book I recently got for Christmas, and I saw it had to do with journalism which we are now studying so I decided to read it. At first it kind of scared me because everyone was in a clown business, but now the business is done and the book is getting into a story about behind-the-scenes stuff on the news which is interesting.

I read the Isle of Swords by Wayne Thomas Batson this week. It was a book that I asked for for Christmas because I loved the three other books I read by the author entitled The Door Within Trilogy. The trilogy was amazing Christian fiction that seemed like the Bible symbolized in a Lord of the Rings style. Although Isle of Swords did not have the same strong messages as the Door Within Trilogy, it was still full of pirate adventure and had a good message at the end. I give it three scrolls because it was entertaining but not always a I-can't-put-it-down type of book. I read it in six hours, and it was three hundred and forty-four pages.
