Dead Connection

Reader # 520 wrote: HORRIBLE! This audio book was not what I expected at all. There was foul language that was not expected or said in the description. I hated it and the ending was totally boring. I DON'T recommend it to anyone. Grade: F

The Wizardology Handbook

Grade: A

Symbols

Reader # 520 wrote: This book was not very good. I expected it to be more informational and not so boring. It wasn't very custom to what I expected. I would recommend it to anyone who wants to read a book about signs they will never see. Grade: C

Encyclopedia Borwn Gets His Man

Dark Knight

Reader # 537 wrote: Everyone said this movie was incredible. I thought it was pretty good but not totally amazing. Heath Ledger was awesome as the Joker. It had a lot of great action and a sad ending. Grade: B

Hancock

Reader # 537 wrote: This movie is the story of Hancock, the well-intentioned modern day superhero who is perpetually screwing up. It started out okay. It was kind of touching to see how misunderstood the guy was. Will Smith acted well, but after a while, the movie just got really confusing. I didn’t even really understand the ending. DO NOT TAKE YOUNG CHILDREN TO SEE THIS MOVIE—there is a ridiculous amount of obscene language. Grade: B

Rocket Boys

Reader # 537 wrote: This was a very inspiring story that showed that dreams, no matter how far-fetched they seem, are always within reach. You found yourself rooting for Homer until the end. I liked this book even more than the movie it inspired, October Sky. Grade: A

The Sun Also Rises

Reader # 537 wrote: I am not a big fan of Hemingway’s style, but this was a very complex book with a great message. You had to figure out a lot for yourself (in true Hemingway), but the story was touching. I did not like the abrupt ending. Grade: B

Tender is the Night

Reader # 537 wrote: This was one of those classic and critically acclaimed books that just ended up going slightly over my head. The characters were quirky and endearing, the plot moved nicely, and the ending seemed to be poetically just. However, the whole book left me with the impression that I had missed some deep psychological message. Grade: B

M is for Malice

Reader # 537 wrote: This mystery novel started out slow but rewarded you for sticking with it. Once you got through the first few dull chapters, you began to get attached to some of the characters, and once my favorite character died, there was no putting it down. After that, the action built quickly and satisfyingly to a totally unexpected ending. Grade: B

Killer Angels

Reader # 537 wrote: This was a great book. I didn’t expect to like the Civil War novel when I started reading it, but it surprised me. It was really well written. The author really brought the characters to life. I appreciated the unbiased way in which he portrayed both sides—a task rarely accomplished by history books. Grade: A
