My top 3 picks of the twain 21


     My top 3 favorite books from the
Twain 21 Challenge


1.Counting by 7's
2.In search of Goliath Hercules
3. The 14 Fibs of Gregory K.



I chose these three books as my 3 favorite books off the Twain 21 Challenge because some were intense and meaningful and that just made me really love them. 
I liked Counting by 7's.  It was really intense what happened to Willow because it seem like everything was right but then that car crash with Willow's parents and it seems like her whole life was gone but she made some nice new friends and they helped her through the hard times and then they adopted her along with the taxi driver and it all worked out in the end even though Willow didn't have her parents.
I thought that In Search of Goliath was kind of boring in the beginning because nothing interesting really happened but then Onri/Henri (the main character) found a bug circus and then it got pretty interesting because it was weird ,have you ever heard of bug circus and Henri could speak to bugs well insects so he could talk to the boss and tell them what to do so ringmaster for the bugs well technically he was sidekick and then he went out n search of the Goliath Hercules he found them but they were quite vicious and even though he could talk to them they didn't really want to listen or talk to him or even be friendly so this one Goliath Hercules the one the rest of them called the new one said he could go and then when Mrs. black who disguises herself as a bunch of different people start seeing that Henri is turning into a bug she seeks to expose him but she can't yet cuz he's so popular and Mrs. black tries to kill Henri she doesn't she accidentally killed the Goliath Hercules because it flies in front of the hair clip Mrs black was trying to use to kill Henri and she accidentally stabbed the Goliath Hercules and she's all no no because she wanted to capture the Goliath Hercules but Henri found it first and got it to come back with him and she kills him well the Goliath Hercules and the Goliath Hercules last words were Henri "I'm your father " which I thought was pretty ironic because Darth Vader says that to Luke before he dies so I thought that was kinda funny.
I liked The 14 Fibs of Gregory K because he used math well the Fibonacci sequence in a way I would have never thought of, I love writing and like math so both of them combined was a really good combination for me it was really cool to me how the author thought of how to make Gregory think of that so that was cool . That's why I loved these 3 books and I'm so glad that I read these books .

UTOPIA by Grace Bennett

Hello! I have written a novel and I'm going to tell you what it's about. It is called 'Utopia', which is also the main city. The main character is Whisk the fox, he has amnesia and has lots if power, but he doesn't know how to control it. It all started when Whisk wakes up in the Utopia Woods, he runs into Jessie the Chipmunk, Ty the Tiger, Raskel Raccoon, and Misty the Lioness. They have been protecting the people of Utopia from Dr. Hissnotizing's monsters. Unfortunately the barriers that  surround the city are wearing down because Shade (the magician who powers the barriers) power is running out. So they set off on a crazy journey to find the Lord Diamond, one of the most powerful items on Kistonious(which is the planet.) They run into dragons and other monsters. Two other Kistoniouns that have strange powers-and appearances. But will they get to the Lord Diamond? If so, will they get past the guardian? Read 'Utopia book 1' to find out. Coming soon (hopefully!) to everyone!
I'd recommend this book to anyone with a good taste for adventure.

I want to thank the SEGA team and Archie comics. I got almost all my ideas off their comic series, Sonic the Hedgehog. So you would like this book if you like Sonic.

The 14 Fibs of Gregory K. my opinion

Okay. I'm going to make this clear, this is NOT a book review. I just wanted to say what this book means to me . In The 14 Fibs of  Gregory K; he hates math, but loves to write poetry. I can relate to this. I hate history, and grammar, and sometimes math. But I love to cartoon. Please do not get mad at me all you history-grammar-math lovers, I'm not saying that they are terrible subjects. But why do we study them? I guess after reading this book, it kind of tells you why these things are so important. In my eyes, I've always asked: 'When I get older, I'm going to draw comics for a living. History and math doesn't help with that. And sure grammar is important with any kind of writing, but I'm drawing! Why does it matter if you know this or not?' Well, I guess if your life goes a different way, then these things are important to know.  If you've also got trouble with one subject, and don't know why it's important, I suggest reading The 14 Fibs of Gregory K.
