review 1: *SPOILER ALERT*Have you ever wanted to be popular so bad that you choose the popular kids over your bestfriend then started to realise that you needed him or her that was your bestfriend? Well thats wat happen to Danny. This book is Realistic Fiction because this can happen in real life. To me this was a very good book I liked it so bad that im going to read part two of it. So there was a boy named Danny Shine he was 12 years old a 7th grader at the school Gerald Ford Middle School. He had a best friend named Jasper they knew each other sense they were very young. Danny's biggest fear was Chantel Davis,Axl and the rest of the skulls gang. Danny's crush is Asia O'Neil but no one knows except Jasper his best friend. So one day Danny was in class and he couldn't stop thinking... more about his crush Asia O'Neil he just couldn't wait to go to lunch so he could see her. When they got to lunch he was So excited to see her he went right behind her in line and started talking to her. Axl on of the people from the group skulls thought it would be funny to push him so he did. Danny bumped into Asia and made her spill her food on someone and that started a whole food fight. Some boy just Threw something at someone and everyone just started to throw stuff. Axl threw Something at Asia and Danny got mad so he picked up something and threw it at Axl. When Danny threw it Danny realised that he made the biggest mistake ever so he tried to run and Axl caught him. Axl was About to punch him and beat him up but the principal cam eand saw him and Axl got in trouble and got a detention. When Axl got out the office he saw Danny and threated him saying he go beat him up. The next day they had detention after school but Danny didn't know that Axl had Detention as well as the rest of the People in the Group Skulls. But also Axl and the group didn't Know that Danny had detention to. So when they seen him they were throwing notes at him saying he were going to die and how they were go beat him up and he was so scared. He was waiting for the bell to ring so he can run, the bell rang and Danny darted out the room and Axl and the rest of the skulls started chasing after him. Danny thought he lost them so he stopped and then Axl and his group popped out of no where and grabbed him by his arm and Axl was getting ready to punch him in his stomach. Axl rolls up his shirt and Danny spots the maker tattoo on his forearm and said's I can draw better skulls then that if u wanna see? Axl responds Really? yea I can show u and he struggles out of the grip of the skull members that were holding him and pulls out his sketchbook and shows him. Axl is surprised he likes his drawing so much that he asked him can he come over to his place and draw it for him and that got him out of his situation of getting beat up. So when he started drawing fake tatoos for the Skulls group Axl asked Danny does he want to join the group? And Danny says yes because he doesn't want to get beat up anymore by them. So after he says yes he started to hang out with them more instead of his bestfriend Jasper and Jasper was starting to get mad. So a couple days later Danny goes to Axl's house and the rest of the skulls crew was already there thinking about what they should do that day. They was all thinking then Danny started talking about what him and Jasper do when they hang out on the weekend. Then that's when they decided to just go to the comic book store to look at comics. So when they got there they was all looking at comic books. Then Danny went up to the counter to talk to the manager of the store Carrie about when is the new catmen and catwomen comic is going to release. Carrie said in a couple weeks then Carrie said "u wanna come in the back room with me I got some new comics in there I only let real good friends of mine come back her so your lucky" said Carrie. While Carrie and Danny went to the back room Axl and the rest of the group stole some comics. Then when Danny came back with Carrie they said that they should leave because it's getting boring and then they left. When Danny and the Skulls crew got outside they all pulled out a comic book from inside their shirts. Axl had got the comic book that was very delicate to Carrie and then that's when Danny got so scared I can't even explain it. OMG nooo we have put these back or we will be in big trouble!" said Danny. No if u say one word about this we will beat you up so bad" said Axl. So Danny didn't say nothing about it but the next day they went to school. While they was in lunch Axl had brought his book bag to lunch and he left his book bag at the table Danny was sitting at. So Danny was thinking about whether he should try to check and see if he had the comic book in his book bag and if he did to take it. So Danny got done thinking about it and decided to check so while Axl wasn't looking he started looking in his book bag. Danny was searching for it and then he found it and put it in his pocket. Axl came over there and was like what was u doing with my bookbag? and Danny said nothing just getting a pencil. Axl believed him and said ok then Danny started walking away and Axl was like u forgot yo pencil and Danny said keep it and left. After school Danny went straight to the comic book store the next day. When Danny got there it was the day the creator of the best comic book to ever be made was there to talk about how he thought about the idea and how he made it so it was alot of people there when Danny got there. Danny went inside the store and tried to open the case to put the comic book back. Then that's when Axl and the rest of the group found out that he stole the comic book and went there and saw Danny trying to put the comic book back inside of the case without no one knowing. Axl screamed out "he's stealing the comic book look and they all looked over there and saw Danny with the comic book. Danny was trying to explain his self but they wouldn't let him Carrie the manager of the store Danny's real good friend said she thought she can trust him and told him to leave and never come back. Then when Danny left he went to school the next day and when he got there everyone was talking bout him and going up to him like did u really try to steal that comic book? and Danny said no and they still didn't believe him they just walked away. So during school Danny and his bestfriend Jasper got a perfect idea of how to get him to admit that he stole it. So Danny conviced the most popular girls and the Skulls crew including Axl to go to the library for a meeting there. So when everyone got there Danny started talking about how he stole the comic book and all the girls was like Omg really how you steal the comic book so sneaky and stuff like that. Axl was over there getting very mad then thats when Axl just bursted out of no where and said "NOOOOO! he didn't steal the comic book I did" said Axl. Then thats when Danny went upstairs with his bestfriend Jasper and started to record Axl saying that he stole the comic book and not Danny. So that same day Danny put the record of Axl saying he stole the comic book on the school's P.A. So everyone came up to Danny and said so you didn't steal it and Danny said naw but when he was walking past the office he saw Axl and he was mad at Danny. So the next day Danny went back up to the comic book store and saw Carrie and told her I really didn't steal the comic book. Carrie says I know your principal just told me the big announcement and he said aw. "But that boy Axl is in the alley picking up everything and cleaning everything for the rest of the year" said Carrie. Danny went out there and saw Axl Axl said don't be scared i can't hit you none this year either but next year im going to beat you up so badly. The Author's purpose for writing this book is that if you do bad things bad things will always happen back to you.My opinion of this book is that this is a very good book. I was surprised when they let go of Danny when they were about to punch him in the stomach because he said he can draw maker tattos. My favortie part of the book was when Danny and Jasper recorded Axl admitting that he stole the comic book and put it on the school P.A. I didn't agree with the part Danny proved that he didn't steal the comic book but he steal had to help clean the store with no pay. The structure of this book was kinds weird but this is still one of my favorite books. I thought the ending of the book was funny because they made Axl clean the alley by the comci book store for the rest of the year and he couldn't hit Danny all year at all. But they also made Danny work for the store with no pay. This kinda reminds me of the time I did something really bad before and I had to do something for them for a long time and I didn't want to at all.My overall thoughts of this book is that I thought this book was awesome! This was like one of the best books I heard like I really liked this book. It's very insteresting and everything like u would love to read this book I advice u to read this book it's very good. If i could rate this book from 1-10 I would rate this book a 10 because this book is so insteresting i can't even explain it. I would recommend thsi book to 5th graders to 7th graders.
review 2: At first, I only picked up this book because I HAD to find a book to read. Eventually, I found myself reading that book all the time. it went to the point of me researching it and finding out it had a sequel. I would beg my librarian for the second book. I really did love this book. Even though it had art in it, I found the art to sometimes become annoying. It was also relatable because the first book is him in middle school. The next book is him in high school so I was able to relate with the characters with ease. less
