“The Killing” is one of Robert Muchamore`s bestselling novels. It is really great and I can really recommend it.
The story is about a teenage boy called James Adams. His mom died, so he was sent to an organisation called CHERUB where kids and teenagers are tought to be agents. All those children live on campus (the headquaters of CHERUB). One day James freaks out and beats up another child. As a consequence he gets punished by the teachers and has to clean the staffrooms for at least a month. But a very generous mission controller sends him on a mission to London. And that`s where the action starts…
The main character is America Singer. She has red hair, green eyes and is very beautiful. She and her family are fives, that means they are pretty poor. But then she gets picked by the Selection and everything changes…
I really recommend this book to everyone who likes love stories because it´s 90% romance. It´s very well written and I personally liked the ups and downs of the story. It´s also 10% civil war so not pure kitsch 🙂 It´s really one of the greatest books I´ve ever read…
I want to tell you something about the coolest book I’ve ever read! You just have to read it too. It is a novel and it is called “If I stay”. It was written by Gayle Forman, who was born in June 1970 in the USA.
But let’s go back to the book summary: Mia, a seventeen-year- old girl, who is the main character in the book, is a really good cellist and a classical music lover. She actually has everything that she has ever wanted , a family, a boyfriend, a best friend and a promising music career, but suddenly everything changes. Mia and her family have a really bad car accident, which takes her parents’ lives and seriously hurts Teddy, her little brother, and herself. She is taken to a trauma center. Mia steps out of her body and sees all the things which are happening around her. She can see her grandparents and other relatives arriving to visit her, also her best friend Kim comes to visit her. In the last moment also her boyfriend Adam, comes Now she has to make the most difficult decision.She actually doesn’t want to live anymore, but she also knows that if she died, it would hurt those who love her.
In the book there are a lot of changes between the things, which are happening around her in the hospital and her memories that she relieves until the accident happens.
Reasons why I like this book: I liked reading the book very much, because I like those books which are very emotional and I think you could sympathize with the characters feelings pretty well, although you actually don’t know how it is to be outside of your body. I like the Idea of changing between the here and now and the memories of the main character. It’s just soooooooo cool to read it, and I think it is one of those books, which you start reading and can’t stop.
I hope I made you curious to read it too and if yes, I just say: Enjoy reading it!!
