My comment has nothing to do with this post. I actually wanted to yell at you. Haha, Kidding (of course.) You didn't remind anyone that it was your birthday! Haha. I feel so bad now, that I didn't get to wish you a happy birthday. So, I guess I will now. Happy Belated Birthday! Hope it was awesome and you got your license. Oh, and I loved your shoes today. I was talking about them this morning to my friend Rae and she completly agreed.

This is a comment in response to the book you chose to write about on Ms. Morrison's blog. I got so excited when I saw the name Jacky Faber on your post. I wrote about the Bloody Jack books to! I LOVE THEM SO MUCH! But the neat part is I only read up to In the Belly of the Bloodhound! So your mention of the newest one makes me want to start reading them again. The only trouble is I'll have to wait for summer because I can only read books for pleasure and really enjoy them, during the summer. I need peace of mind to read a book for fun. Which means no homework, no school, just me and the book! Thatnks to your post I know just what my first book of my summer will be. Bloody Jack!
