WILDWOOD BEACH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Last week my whole soccer team went to Wildwood beach in New Jersey for  a soccer tournament. We all got wristbands to go on the 3 piers filled with rides and waterslides!!!! Last friday, my friends and I went on a haunted ghost ship, and we had the pee scared out of us! That night I had  nighmares about it! We all lost our voice the next day because we were screaming our lungs dry! We all celebrated by screaming and running into the waves after our first time playing soccer on the beach, barefoot. We decided to go to the a different pier, where almost everyone wanted to go on a GIANT rollercoaster!
I could never go on a rollercoaster that big, so I went on a mini rollercoaster, called Flitzer, with the other people who didn't want to ride the big rollercoaster!:D Although we didn't get 1st place, we did get 2nd! That is CRAZY! I never wanted to leave. It was like Christmas morning!

Have you ever been to Wildwood or Beach Blast? Say what you think!
This was the roller

Niagra Falls

I went to Niagra Falls!!!!! On my trip we created many cherished memories! My cousins and I all went on the cave of the winds. On this activity, you could walk under the American Falls! I was the only one who wanted to get soaked, so I stood under the fall for some time! :D The Maid of the Mist was a very exzilerating ride! And I am proud to say my spit is now part of the Niagra river:D  Next we went to the Aqurium where we saw everything from Penguins to Poison Dart Frogs. But the jorney wasn't over until we stayed at our friends house. That is where we kayaked, rode horses, hunted for arrowheads, and fished! I even caught dinner, a huge bass! I'll never forget my vacation to Niagra Falls!

Have you ever gone to Niagra Falls or planning a trip there? Leave a comment!:D

The Caged Graves by Dianne Salerni

Again this isn't a published book, but a manuscript that I read! This has become one of my all time favorites! I hope that Mrs.Salerni gets a publishing company interested in publishing The Caged Graves! Keep your fingers crossed! :D

Verity Boone is a city girl who has moved back home to Cattiwissa! Her mom and aunt have tragicly passed 15 years ago (the reason that Verrity moved to Worchester):( When Verrity was younger, she was betrothed to a man named Nathaniel McClure. One day Nate unexpectly shows up at the Boone residence to meet Verrity! But everything goes wrong! Nate accidently takes Verrity to the graveyard in which her mother was buried in (or rather out). This then leads to Verrity discovering that her mother and aunt were buried with a cage enclosing their graves! Verrity is overcome with two men interested in her shortly after moving to her birth place! It seems that no one will answer Verrity's questions about her mother, and why everyone thinks that witchcraft was involved! When Ransloe Boone feels bad for Verrity, he uncovers Sarah Ann's diaries and gives tham to Verrity! Verrity is so determined to uncover the truth about her mother's tragic death, she goes to the doctor's assistant (Hadley, who has a strong passion for Verrity) to try to find out the cause of her mother and possilby her aunt's death! But there are always mysterious things happening every day! Such as grave robbing, suspisions arising, Nate discovering the passionate interest that Hadley shares for Verrity, kidnapping, guns, and the treasure hunt for the lost gold is getting hotter and hotter!

Strange Truths By Dianne Salerni

This actually isn't a published book, but a manuscript that my 5th grade teacher let me read! She has an agent for this book and is hoping to get a publishing company interested! Mrs.Salerni also has a published book called We Hear the dead. I am hoping to read it soon!

Strange Truths is a great book for teenagers or young adults! A girl named Evie Strong is from an asylum! But one day she is welcomed into the family of two rocket scientists! Who then immediately change her name to Evie Strong to "conceal her past"! Evie who is used to unusual happening has gotten used to the idea of her parent scientists being mediums! Evie even joins the club! They help find if peole are real mediums of mental physcos! In this club, Evie meets a young man named Madison Hodge (he prefers Hodge). Even Evie can't resist trying to not approve of young Hodge! But being seen together can get them both in trouble! All the mediums reconize Evie for her many talents and hold real senaces with her. But will Evie's past be revealed or will she cause a diaster with her unusual powers?

Although this is not a published book, if you give hope to Mrs.Salerni, the book might get published! So keep those fingers crossed! I really enjoyed this book in so many levels! And you can too, maybe someday! Right now the book is titled Strange Truths, but it was A Pinpoint Of Truth. So the name probably will be changed in the future! :D

Any Bookworms Out There?

I don't know about you, but I love to read! I'm an 11 year-old bookworm! As a matter of fact being a bookworm sometimes gets me in trouble. Like when I am reading instead of getting ready for school, going to bed, or listening to what my mom is saying to me.



If this sounds like you, join me and other Bookworms on this blog. We can share comments, recommend books to each other, and just have fun!
