The Hangover: A Review by Nick Brad rode home with his best friend Alden Whitlock, who was the son of a judge and one fo the richest families in the entire town. Even though Brad doesn't remember it, he has a feeling that something happened on the car ride home. There is no proof on the car, but Brad thinks that Alden hit something on the way home. And he knows that it was something living, but now its not anymore. Brad uses some detective clues to find out but when he comes up with nothing, a woman comes into town and is looking for her lost father. Her father is homeless and left her and her mother when she was a little child. Brad and Ellen find out evidence and convict Alden. I liked a few things about this book, and yet there were a few things that I didn't like about this book. I liked how this book started out and how Brad had a strange feeling in his gut about the previous night. Also, I liked How Brad was a well known guy and his parents were out of town. And, His Best friend was Alden Whitlock, the son of a judge and in one of the richest families in the town. But, I didn't like how the ending was predictable and sort of boring. There were ups and downs in the book, but I liked more things then I disliked. This book was pretty realistic and seemed like it could happen to some people I know. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes a good mystery, but doesn't make you think too much about what next is going to happen. It has a really good beginning but a satisfactory ending. Overall, I think this book is a fairly good read but isn't the best it could've been.
How Drunk Driving can lead to a lot of trouble!: A Review by Bree Alden Whitlock and Brad accidentally hit a homeless man while driving drunk on their way home. Brad returns to the crime scene the next day to find a blood stained watch with the initials P.H.S. engraved on the back. Ellen Hansen came into town to visit her father. When Brad and Ellen meet its love at first site. Brad is now challenged to tell the truth to Ellen knowing she might leave him. He could also hide it from her knowing things might or might not work out. Either choice could result to loss and grieving for both of them. I enjoy reading mystery books of any sort. "Coverup" appealed and related to me in a way I least expected. Drinking and driving is a common problem with many teenagers. It shows how fast a simple situation can change from fun to drastically serious! "Coverup" is a real page-turner! From the beginning it starts our so incredibly descriptive that you are begging for more time to read! "He awoke in a cold sweat, pale and trembling, his eyes wildly trying to pierce the black night." I would strongly recommend this book to anyone that doesn't enjoy reading. It is a fairly short book that races by page after page. After completing the book I looked back on it asking myself if I actually read that book. "Coverup" gets you hooked on reading. The vocabulary can easily be understood too. Bennett's writing is clear and precise. I enjoyed this book and so will you!

Coverup: Jay Bennett an author of suspense has written the book about two best friends who got drunck at a party they drove home and on their way home they had an accident.One of the two friends denied that an accident happened. the other friend was sleeping in the car and did not know what happened.When he woke up he had a weird felling that something had happened and he did not know what it was.This non-fiction book kept me reading, I just coudn't put it down.I like the book because it was very interesting and I coudn't wait to see what was going to happen at the end.Jay Bennett has written a series of suspense books. I would recommend it to people who have patience.The theme of the book is that friends should be honest with each other or really bad things woud happen to ruin your friendship.
COVERUP REVIEW: The book that I have chosen for my project is called "COVERUP." My likes about this book are that it is a mystery and it sounds believable. This book sounds believable because it has political situations in it that could possibly happen. My dislikes are that the book wasn't very suspencful, in that, it gives away the end too soon. It also goes along very slowly. I think that the worst part of this book is in the beginning when Brad can't remember what happened to him after he went to a party with Alden, his best friend. This is because it moves along too slowly and it has a dark setting. The best part of the book is at the end because it's suspencful and it has an unsuspected person involved. The two most vivid parts of this book are the characters and the setting. The author uses very specific descriptions and pictures. I can see many scenes in the story.
