"Looking for Salvation at the Dairy Queen" by Susan Gregg Gilmore

In Looking for Salvation at the Dairy Queen by Susan Gregg Gilmore, a young teen girl lives in a small town, but thinks she would be better off in a large city.  Why does she think that?  Does she go to a large city?  This book is okay.  I liked all the characters and the story line.  (Gerard's review, 4 stars)

"Sunrise on the Reaping" by Suzanne Collins

Sunrise on the Reaping by Suzanne Collins disappointed me.  I was hoping Katniss would return as a mentor, but no.  That did not happen.  Haymitch, the main character was good, but not as good as Katniss was.  I couldn't help making comparisons.  The first part of the book pretty much dragged along for me and I didn't care for all the poetry in it.  I liked it a lot though when they finally got to the arena, but was very disappointed in the ending.  (Karen's review, 4 stars)

Gerard's review:
In Sunrise on the Reaping by Suzanne Collins The Hunger Games are back.  A young teen boy and a young teen girl try to outwit and survive the 50th annual Hunger Games against twice as many tributes as before!  Haymitch from District 12 understands he has been set up to fail, but there's something in him that wants to fight.  I was into this book from the start.  It has good action and twists and turns.  I LOVED IT!  (5++ stars)

""Three Wild Dogs (and the truth) by Markus Zusak

I had to wait a long time to read Three Wild Dogs (and the truth) by Markus Zusak, but it was worth it!  The author tells the story of his three dogs.  These dogs were active to say the least.  If you have or had a dog, you will love this book.  I LOVED IT!  (Gerard's review, 5++ stars)

"Last Dog on the Hill" by Steve Duno

I have not read a good dog book in a while so I really enjoyed Last Dog on the Hill by Steve Duno.  It is about a dog named Lou told by his owner.  This book tells the true story of Steve Duno who befriends a dog named Lou.  What a great bond they had!  Steve really trained Lou well and Lou taught Steve a few things as well.  Lou is a great dog who reminds me of how blessed I have been to have two wonderful dogs:  Abby and Roxy.  (Gerard's review, 5++ stars)
