Gerard's Favorite: Blood Feud by David Robbins
Blood Feud by David Robbins is about a feud between the Harkey
clan and the Shannon clan. Chase Shannon sets out for revenge after the
brutal rape of his older sister by the Harkeys. To say I enjoyed this
book would be an understatement--I loved it! Blood Feud is a double
wow, which means it's as good as it gets! The good news is that there
is going to be two more books in this series. Can't wait!! Read and
enjoy!
Karen read this one too. Here's what she thought of it:
Blood Feud by David Robbins moved along at a good pace and
kept my interest because Chace was such an interesting character. It is
is full of killing, a shoot-em up book about family loyalty, revenge,
and hate. My favorite part was when Chace fled to Galveston, Texas and
took over the hawking business from Tunk to help the kids which showed
he was kind-hearted in spite of being a killer. I did like the ending!
Karen's Favorite: War Horse by Michael Morpurgo
War Horse is a touching book that kept my interest all through.
Although it is a children's book, I enjoyed it but must admit I got
teary-eyed reading it. Parts were very sad but I loved the ending!
Joey, the horse, tells his story about living on a farm with a boy named
Albert and then being sold to the army because Albert's dad needed
money to save his farm. The horse goes through a lot but Albert never
gives up looking for him.
Gerard liked this one too: War Horse by Michael Morpurgo is a double wow book for me! Joey,
the war horse, tells about his adventures during World War 1 and the
special bond he has with a young boy named Albert. At only 160 pages or
so, it goes very fast. I loved it! I look forward to seeing the movie
which is coming out on Christmas.

Those do sound very good! I just finished "The Language of Flowers" by Vanessa Diffenbaugh and it was good. Today I got "The Help" from the library and I can't wait to read it.
Beaded Tail: Thanks for your comment on our favorite reads for September. Gerard started "The Language of Flowers" but didn't like it--guess it wasn't what he expected and got bored with it. He didn't even finish it.
I'm sure you'll enjoy THE HELP. It's a fat book, but it's so good that I read it all anyway. I would like to hear what you thought of it when you finish it.
