24 Girls in 7 Days by Alex Bradley

The book is about about how Jack Grammar, a high school student, gets a prom date. When the girl he likes doesn't want to go to prom with him, he is left without a date with prom only days away. His friends find out and post an ad on the school website stating that he needed a prom date. Suddenly, Jack has 24 girls to go out with in seven days. In the end he goes with the date he really wants.

I liked it because it was a funny story on how Jack's love life turns into a "bachelor show."

Shark Wars by EJ Altbacker

The book is about a shark named Gray. Once his hunger gets the best of him, he wanders too far into the Big Blue with his friend Barkley. While they are gone, their shiver gets attacked; they get blamed for bringing the attackers and are banished from their shiver. Once they get banished, their old shiver gets attacked again and Gray can't find his mom. Now, to find her, he must go to the Tuna Run. On his mission, he loses a friend, meets new sharks, and finds out shocking news that can change his life forever.
I thought this book was too much like another series I read called The Warriors. But overall I thought the book was okay.

A Tale Dark & Grimm by Adam Gidwitz

Two twins named Hansel and Gretel run away from their parents to live in the wild. They try to settle in a new place but they encounter something dangerous and have to leave. When they go back home, something bad has happened to the Kingdom of Grimm and they have to find out what.

I liked it because it has to do with battling a lot of weird creatures and it has a lot of adventures which i like. I also like it because the narrator is funny.
