3rd Quarter Reading List

I read 3 books, the equivalent of 7 books.
  • Pride and Prejudice
  • The Adventures of Tom Sawyer (336 pages)
  • Deception Point (464 pages)

It was a dark, dreary night when Tom and Huck entered the graveyard. They entered with the intention of seeing some demons drag the newest buried body down to Hell, and left with the knowledge of a murder. Injun Joe, out of fury, killed another man, not knowing that Tom and Huck were hiding in the bushes. The two boys watch as Injun Joe lays the knife in his partner's hand, framing him for the murder. Tom and Huck make a pact (sealing it with blood, of course), and move on with their lives, adventuring as pirates and getting lost in caves. As the village awaits the trial of the "murderer", Tom and Huck must decide whether their lives are more important than the innocent "homicidal" person sitting in jail, awaiting his death for a murder he didn't commit. Tom reminded me of myself when I was younger. I used to look for trouble and go on "adventures" to lost places.
