With Jason Campbell suffering a concussion last week, Tanney could be in line to back up the much-maligned Weeden on Sunday against the Jacksonville Jaguars. There are no other quarterbacks currently on the Browns' active roster.
Tanney, if you remember from 2011, is a trick-shot artist. This could be the man Browns fans are pining for one drive into a home contest against a 2-8 team:
The book "Paper Hearts" by S.R. Savell was very different from a lot of stories that I have read. Although I did get lost and confused at some parts, I was really intrigued by the train of events that happened in this book. I sincerely love the main character, but she confused me a little. I didn't know if she was all around mad or just in a depressed state of mind. Same goes with Nathaniel. I understood his emotions but at the end of the story his character took a total turn for the worst. I don't understand why he beat Peter. Did something happen before that and I just happened to miss it or did Peter say something to insult Michelle? I don't know, but like I said it was a fantastic story but could use a little more re-reading.
Brook Berry in The Case of Myst River is a fantastic book. It has excitement, a great pot twist, and is great for a young children's mystery book. Being the age of 12+, the book was quite an easy read but was very enjoyable. The characters were described very well, being someone who hasn't read the first or second book. This book kept me on the edge of my seat even though the plot was a little predictable. If I was younger, the book would have been more exciting. But overall, this book is great for a kid ages 7-12 who wants a fun, Scooby Doo/Hardy Boys/Nancy Drew type of book.
The first chapter of this book got my attention immediately, though as the story went on the excitement began to fade. I kept on waiting for more to happen, but nothing did until the last few chapters.
I do appreciate that Corey’s death wasn’t quickly dismissed as sometimes deaths are in books. I saw the main characters, Savitri and Holly, struggling throughout the entire book to forget Corey’s death, and it seemed real. I also like the fact that it switched from Holly’s point of view to Savitri’s often, so I saw both of their ways of thinking. Overall, the book wasn’t bad, just a bit slow in parts.
I like this book because of the characters. They were able to be nice and even make jokes when they were in one of the worst situations ever. There was a sense of dreadfulness that hung throughout this book. The entire plot was very excellent. The contrast between ‘good’ and ‘bad’ evened out in the end. I find that it was a good book for one to learn about history and enjoy it at the same time. I don’t recommend it for anyone under the age of 13-14.
This book kept me interested, both with the action and the amazing character development. There were some overdramatized points, but they were used well to add to the excitement of the storyline. This is not the style of book I usually read, but I did enjoy it and it got me interested in similar books and authors. Overall, this book was very good and will keep you thinking long after you've read the final page.
I chose this book because I like historical fiction, and I am very interested in how disease was viewed in the past. But this story ended up being very, very different from what I had hoped it would be. It is definitely not a fairy tale or fantasy, even though the cover is beautiful and the design of the inside of the book is gorgeous, too. I read the author’s note at the end before I began to read, so I knew that the disease that was threatening everyone was syphilis. The parts about syphilis were actually very interesting to me, especially the ways that people at the time tried to treat it and the ways they thought that it was spreading.
I was not prepared for the very graphic violence in the book, which made the story more disturbing than interesting. The female characters suffer terrible violence such as rape and torture (in the case of Midi). I think that this is probably realistic for the time, but it really took away from any potential enjoyment that I might have gotten from the book. The author is a very good writer but the story itself is too dark. I would give the overall book only three stars because it was so unpleasant to read and because I think it was a mistake for this book to be listed in the young adult category. I also found all of the characters unlikeable, which made it hard to keep reading.
I enjoyed this book more than a Harry Potter. It was an interesting journey and not the normal kind of book that I would find myself reading. It's not overly adventurous, but you could relate to the heartfelt characters. At the end of the story, I found myself sobbing with joy. I read it like I was a hungry wolf. If you like stories that bring you into the past and take you on the ride of a lifetime, then this is the book for you!!!!!!
I liked this book a lot. I liked it beacuse it reminded me of the Rumplestilskin story that I know. I wish I could have a magical power too but not have to bargain for it.
In my opinion the book started off a little boring but then became a very suspensful and interesting book. Once the book became suspenseful I couldn't put the book down. I haven't read a paranormal book like this so I think it is a great addition to the paranormal genre. I would recommend this book to people who like paranormal books or like reading spooky and suspenseful books.
