When You Reach Me

When you Reach me      This week for my book I read: When you reach me By Rebecca Stead. It is a very good book and I think that everyone should read it. It is about a girl named Miranda and her best friend Sal. They know their way around New York City, like where things are and where things are safe.

    Things then start to unravel. Sal gets punched for no reason. Her moms apartment key gets stolen, and she finds a note that says:

     I am coming to save your friends life, and my own.
    I must ask for two favors. First you must write me a letter.

    The notes keep coming and she realizes that this person knows a lot about her, and it makes her believe she can prevent a death. Until the final note which makes her think she is too late.


I loved this book just because it was really well written and had a really good plot line, and great characters. I mean, that all books need right?

The next books I want to read are:
1 .Outlier
2. Legend
3. Looking for Alaska

Particle Physics

    This week I read Particle Physics by Tom Whynite and Oliver Puch. This book was done by the same publisher and company as Quantum Theory, a graphic guide. If you didn't see that blog (my first blog) be sure to check that out.

    This book basically explains the basics of particle physics in a really awesome way. Its pictures on almost every page, but there is also a heck of a lot of information. If you know nothing about these two concepts you should still read these books because you will feel smarter.

    No mature warnings.

The next books I want to read are:
1 .Outliers
2. Legend
3. Looking for Alaska

ready player one




Ready Player One
Ernest Cline
Science Fiction

This week I read ready player one. It was a pretty good book. Actually it was a really good book. Most of you probably know what it's about. But I have to explain it anyway. It is about this kid on the outskirts Oklahoma. This kid is named Wade watts. and the only time that he feels alive is when he's playing the game oasis. This game is basically everbodys (in the entire world) life. Then suddenly the guy who created it dies. But before he died he made a video that you sent out to every Oaisis player. This video explained how he had put in an Easter egg in the game. This Easter eggs basically a giant puzzle with hidden keys. And whoever came up with the solution would inherit the entire Oasis company, if you can imagine if this is everybody's life then inheriting the company would be a big deal.

I love this book and I really recommend it to anyone who has not read it. No maturity warnings

Next three books I want to read
1. Code Name Verity
2.When You Reach Me
3.Grandmaster

Linda recommended, The Nazi Hunters, and I added it to my TBR list.

First Blog Post!!

                     I read a book called Quantum Theory: A Graphic Guide by J.P. McEvoy and Oscar Zarate. This is a non-fiction book, obviously about Quantum Theory. This is the book that inspired me to do Quantum Theory as a unit this year.
                     I would defiantly recommend this book to people who have no idea what Quantum Theory is. This book does a very good job about explaining who discovered it, what it is, why is it important, and it does all of that using cartoon pictures. It includes: Einstein, Schrodinger, Max Planck, James Maxwell, Thermodynamics, Quanta, and a lot more that I forgot. 

                     My opinion on this book, is it was great. I learned a lot and did it in a fun way.
