Prediction to Breathing Underwater

I am half way through reading Breathing Underwater by Alex Flinn. So far a boy named Nick had a good life until he got in trouble for hitting his girlfriend. Now no one wants to be his friend. he is being forced to go to Anger Management classes and to write in a notebook. I left off reading when nick was about to get in a fight with Leo because Leo stood up for him and Nick didn't like that but Mario, the class teacher, told them to take it outside. I don't think Nick or Leo will do anything.Everything will just calm down they will go back to the class. This a great book to read.

Next Semester....

This semester I read Mexican WhiteBoy, Down, and Breathing Underwater. They were all really good books. Mexican WhiteBoy was about a boy named Danny who liked to play baseball but he didn't have control on the ball. Down was about a boy named Remy who was released from jail and faced more problems at home. Breathing Underwater was about a boy named Nick who hit his girlfriend and now has to spend time in an anger management class. Next semester I would like to read more mystery books. I just like finding out who was killed or how he was killed. There is just a lot of suspense in those types of books. Some books that have interested me are The Body of Christopher Creed, I Will Save You by Matt De La Pena,and Lockdown:Escape from Furnace by Alexander Gordon Smith. I hope to read those books next semester.

Mexican WhiteBoy and The Second Stringer

My book Mexican WhiteBoy can relate to the book The Second Stringer because they both are about boys that want to play the sport that they love but no one believes in them. Danny from Mexican WhiteBoy likes to play baseball but he can not control the ball. No one thinks he can do good until Uno believes in him. Kevin from The Second Stringer likes to play football but he wasnt that good. No one thought he could lead the team to the championship. The coach gives him some good advice and it was a miracle. Mexican WhiteBoy and The Second Stringer can relate in a few ways.
