This week’s reading for me was a tense, nonstop mystery. The book that I am currently reading, The Mummy, the Will and the Crypt, by John Bellairs, is hard to put down, and it is exciting. This book is one of the top ten books I’ve ever read. This book however has some kind of violence in a way that is hard to describe. The Mummy, the Will, and the Crypt is a book more meant for kids age 8 to 11. This is because if the book is read by 13 year old it would be boring, and if it was read by a 6 year old he or she would not understand the book and what specific sentences mean. The book however is also somewhat tragic because Grandma gets a brain tumor, and Johnny’s dad also gets his plane shot down by the Koreans and they don’t know if he is dead or alive.

The part I am reading right now is when Johnny is going to sneak into the mansion and find the will. The thing with this story is that you could think it was over after something good happens, but then there is another problem that Johnny has to deal with. This book specifically is more mystery than action, and I personally like action more than mystery so that’s why it’s not my most favorite book, however, if you like mystery books I highly recommend you check this book out. It makes you feel tense and is somewhat scary. As I said before this book is tense, mysterious, and nonstop. If you like mystery books, go to your local library right now, get and read, The Mummy, the Will and the Crypt by John Bellairs. If you like it you can tell me (Alex Lim); if not than it’s no big deal.
