What I’ve been reading lately
With the school year in full swing and me being busy with school and getting my prospectus ready for defense at UNLV, I have to admit my reading time has been a bit limited. However, here are some new titles I’ve gotten through you might want to check out:
The Protector- Jen Ruth:
(fiction, quick read) It is *so* cool that one of our own teachers at Esco is a published author! I recently read Mrs. Ruth’s book The Protector and, although I am not known as a big fan of fiction, I could not put this one down. This book has a little bit of everything; fantasy, action, romance, and mystery. Set here in Vegas, the main character uses her magic skills to fight off bad guys both corporeal and spiritual as she continues to fight off a mystery villain intent on wiping out anyone in town who uses or promotes magic.
Shift- Jennifer Bradbury:
(fiction, easy-read, mystery) The by-line on this book says it all: “some friends fade away…others disappear.” Two friends graduate high school and decide to go on a cross-country bicycle trek before heading off to college, only one of them never makes it back. Agents are investigating and clues are surfacing as to what happened to Winston (Win) that day he passed Chris and was not seen again. Not only does the pair go on a great adventure, but you are compelled to keep reading on to get the details of what really happened.
I have a couple more interesting titles I’m working on, one by Eoin Colfer, the author of the Artemis Fowl series, and a really interesting one called “Mexican White Boy”, about a Hispanic boy trying to fit in and figure out his cultural identity. Until next time…
