Hunting a Dinosaur Skull

Teddy Fitzroy is surprised when his friend Sage reveals that he found a Tyrannosaurus Rex skull on his ranch. But now that skull has gone missing. It’s large and heavy, so who could have stolen it? And how did they do it? Meanwhile, he’s gotten a call from the Barksdale twins about their new exotic pet. Who is selling these dangerous animals?

This book really does have two storylines, and it balances both well. We do get a couple of lectures about endangered animals, but they don’t slow down the action for long. And with everything happening, there is plenty of action. When Teddy pieced together the clues, I couldn’t believe I missed them myself. The characters are great as always, and some of the situations Teddy found himself in made me laugh out loud. These books are aimed at middle schoolers, but anyone who enjoys a fun mystery should definitely pick them up.

Kudos

The Fallout: The Franchise That Never Stops

Mission: impossible - fallout, is the six instellment of the mission: impossible franchise. So my rank of the films goes 3, 6, 5, 1, 4 and 2. This one is really good, the greater good is a highly steak. Plus you have Henry Cavill as the villian. So thats a plus and that mustache. Hopefully that doesnt get GCI away in anethor movie. Cough "Justice League".

The plot: Ethan Hunt and the IMF team join forces with CIA assassin August Walker to prevent a disaster of epic proportions. Arms dealer John Lark and a group of terrorists known as the Apostles plan to use three plutonium cores for a simultaneous nuclear attack on the Vatican, Jerusalem and Mecca, Saudi Arabia. When the weapons go missing, Ethan and his crew find themselves in a desperate race against time to prevent them from falling into the wrong hands.

Its a great, excellent and phenomenal franchise. Alot of action, stunts, running, suspense and thrills.

Sara Cox (1845 KP) rated Alia Tero: The Many Lives of Darren Datita in Books

The concept of this books was interesting. It’s the future. There are different “zones” people get moved to each rotation. At each zone they get different roles. The purpose I suppose is so people aren’t settled and therefore cannot plan or rebel the system. Reproduction is pretty regimented and planned. Throughout most of this book I thought we were following the main character through his different rotations and the various roles this has given him, bin man, orderly, dad. Towards the end he starts a revolution so he doesn’t have to rotate anymore and can be with the woman he loves. How he reaches this point it fairly interesting, but I feel like there could have been more of a build up to it. It seemed like a thing a lot of people were thinking about and his luck enabled him to put a plan in place. I don’t know, it felt like something was missing from the narrative.
