What would you do if all of a sudden you were told the your father was mysteriously murdered? Would just except it or would you figure it out? That's what Josh did in this intense book called The invisible City written by M.G. Harris. Josh's life was pretty normal until he is told his archaeologists father's plan has crashed off course in Mexico. The authorities say it was only a tragic accident, but josh thinks there is more to it. That makes the antagonist and of course josh as the protagonist. As josh looks into his dad's emails he finds out his dad was in search of the Mayan Codex. Josh travels to Mexico to find learn that the Mayan codex contains key information about the prophecy of the world ending in 2012. Josh also finds out that there are other people looking for this 5th Codex and his father may have found it and was killed for the information. After finding out the truth about his father's death he continues where his father left off. I really in joyed this triller because of how I felt like I was part of this amazing story of a 13 year old boy saving the world. That is why I recommend this bookAbout 9 years agopladayliked a comment in The Keeper: The Unguarded Story of Tim Howard (Young Readers' Edition).
Have you ever felt left out and like you can't do anything about it? Like you can't control your life? That's how Tim Howard felt in the beginning of this great book called The Keeper by Tim Howard with Ali Benjamin. Now, this isn't a story about how no matter what happens, Tim Howard will always come out on top. It's not a story about Tim Howard saving every single shot that comes his way. This book is real life. This shows how life isn't always sunshine and rainbows. Especially for Tim Howard. You see, Tim Howard has a disease called TS,(Tourette syndrome.). That makes the protagonist and antagonist of this book, Tim Howard, because when he was a kid, he always tried to hide his disease and he was always fighting with himself, trying to not let the disease control him. That's one conflict in this book that gets resolved by Tim as an adult becoming open about his Tourette syndrome, so kids around the world can have an easier time dealing with it than he did. Another conflict is when Tim gets benched for one mistake on Manchester United and he doesn't think that's fair, so he goes to play for Everton as the starting goalie. The conflict gets resolved in a game pitting Manchester United against Everton, but you'll have to read the book to see how it gets resolved. This book shows around a 35-40 year portion of Tim Howard's still continuing life. If you love soccer like I do or even if you don't this book has an amazing and inspiring story, because there's just as many bad moments in his life as good which makes this book real, true and a big recommend.About 9 years agopladay added a movie review.
