Why I chose this book and my predictions

I chose this book because I like mystery books about crime and mystery.
I think that it is a little strange because the accusation has no witnesses to the murder but I think that there is a witness somewhere because it was in a large housing estate and all the houses back onto the same golf course, where the suspect/husband of the woman who was murdered, he was at the golf course apparently when she was murdered but the accusation side say that it was all just a cover up for when he went back to the house and murdered her and went back to the golf course

Beginning of Theodore Boone kid lawyer

I started reading this book a couple of nights ago it was a little slow to get started for the first couple of chapters but once you get into it a little it starts to get pretty good.

The story Is set in a town. And there has just been a murder in a wealthy neighborhood and there is a case on trial and thirteen year old Theodore Boone who is really fascinated by law and is always in the courtroom watching court cases whenever he can be, but he was especially interested in this story because it was one of the biggest things that has ever happened in the town.

Independent reading book

I have now finished my book somebody up there hates you.

I really enjoyed the book because you never knew what could happen next and it was always leaving you wanting to know the next part, it was a really good book and I would recommend it to people who like the kind of book about people with cancer and what kind of things they have to go through but while still having funny parts.

I think that the theme of this book is that if you never give up and if you stay positive and keep up hope anything could happen could happen.

The main character in the book was Richard Casey. At the beginning of the book he was really shy and not sure of himself but he wasn't giving up on himself, as the book went on i think he became more confident in himself.
One of the best things about the main character Is that he wasn't going to give up and he wasn't going to stop living his life just because he was in a hospice with that terrible illness
And one of the worst things about him is that he didn't always trust people.

I think the way the author finished the book was very good and it left you not knowing what might actually  happen next while still giving you a pretty good insight into what might happen as it had been all the way throughout the story.

The next book I plan to read is called Theodore Boone kid lawyer by John Grisham. Because I like detective kind of books and about people trying to solve a murder.
