Timmy Failure Mistakes Were Made by Stephan Pastis

For some reason my blog posts weren't posting but here is an actual blog post. I've read this book before but I like to reread books sometimes.

Summary [Little spoilers :/] :

Timmy Failure is the founder, president, and CEO of the best detective agency in town or even the world, or so he thinks. This first book in the series is a look through Timmy's mind and what happens. Timmy has a business partner (pet), who is a polar bear and his name is Total. Timmy does own his own detective agency trying to solve people's problems for a little money. The two go on solving cases even though Timmy is not always right. Timmy of course goes to school and has a friend named Rollo who is a very studious child. Timmy isn't friends with everyone as there is an opposing detective agency owned by a girl 'who shall not me shown'.

I didn't feel like spoiling too much but still...

Rating: 8/10 quite humorous.
Something I liked?: I like the humor in how Timmy thinks and especially how he has a polar bear?

Or a cat go moo.

Middle School Just My Rotten Luck by James Patterson

Another book from James Patterson sticking to the high school theme. Basic summary [SPOILERS :p] This time following a boy named Rafe Khatadorian we find our main character back at high school and now taking extra classes that will help him. The bully, Miller the Killer, has made a deal to make Rafe for him to join the American football team in trade of him not bulling him. When Rafe scores for the school in a long time, the school celebrates. Meanwhile, Rafe has decided to do an art project called Operation S.A.M which stands for secret artist man. He plans to paint famous masterpieces and stick them around the school as S.A.M. S.A.M makes a very controverisal piece of artwork called Bnice which are pictures of bullies beating up kids replaced by silhouettes. It was so controversial that news Channel 5 came to interview students in Hills Village Middle School. Rafe starts to score more goals and eventually ask Miller to stop bulling the kids in his extra classes. Miller also figures out that Rafe is S.A.M because of some comics Rafe made on the same website used to post the 'Bnice' artwork. Half the year is gone and thing are workkng out better than expected for Rafe. Notice: This is thea seventh book in the series so if you want to know more, perhaps read the first 6 books. Rating?: 7/10 I like the series and it's definetely a RK book. Review: I like it for its humor and Rafe's ways of solving problems. Although I must say, it has a similar general plot to most of the other plots. Of course Rafe does something that is artistic because he is an artistic person and art is his favourite class. Including Rafe play American football for the first time is quite unexpected but then again I didn't know what to expect. All in all it's a good boredem read.

I Funny by James Patterson

Basic summary [includes spoilers :p] I Funny is about a kid named Jamie Grimm who is in a wheelchair. He wants to be a kid comedian and so he has entered a competition. This is a competition that continues on to the finals. Sincd Jamie lives on Long Island, he enters the competition for Long Island. Before the competiton, Jamie is still in school and lives with his uncle, aunt and cousins. All of them of which he calls "The Smileys". Not because the smile a lot, it's because they almost never smile. However, Jamie has Uncle Frankie who is a supportive character who helps Jamie along this adventure. Jamie also has friends Gaynor and Pierce and kind of crush Golda. Since there are 2 more books in the series its easy to assume that Jamie wins the long island competition, in which he does. Jamie wins and moves on to the state competition which is continued in the next book and blog. Short Review?: It's a very humorous book, with some funny jokes in there. Also the story of Jamie going through his everyday struggles like him beijg in a wheel chair and being bullied is really quite a deep one even though its a comedic book. James Patterson is a good author and he writes similar book with the theme of middle school. Rating: 8.5/10 I like it a lot good read

The Killables by Gemma Malley

Since on this blog I have posted about the two next books, I guess I should explain the first book. If you want to read the book don't read this, [SPOILER ALERT] Basic summary: A girl named Evie feels very trapped with evil thoughts. She lives in a city that had a system which would monitor it's citizens. This city was established after a big war. The system gave it's citizen tags from A-D. There is a secret behind the leader of the city. As well as what happened to citizens that were given a K tag (Killable). Soon Evie and Raffy escaped the city with the help of Raffy's brother, Lucas. They escape and soon outsiders find them and take them to their city where they live there now. Rating: 8/10 Intresting dystopian world. A few complex words that I didn't understand. Although it had a bad review on some websites, I think it was alright.

The System by Gemma Malley

Pretty good, I would rate it a 8/10. I made a blurb here: Evie and Raffy aren't safe, they have escaped the city but the still fear for their lives. They have only a stranger, Frankie, to help them. Will they finally escape the madness?
