I think this post shows and makes people want to read this book. It shows that the book is “Easier to follow.” And the book is easier to comprehend and it pulls you  in and makes want to learn more about the skateboarding legend,  And to learn more about how he lived to be one of the best skateboarders to ever live. And it recommends it for kids who are in love with skateboarding and would like to learn more. It also talks about all the drama that was going on around tony as a young child to a teenager and then to a very successful  grown man.

I lack the strength to keep up with reading every day for at least 15 minutes or more. I also struggle with books that jump around also I can’t keep up with books that move really fast and most books frankly bore me to death. But books about music and sports really catch my eye. I worked through it by setting a timer every time I would read to make sure I at least read 30 minutes or 25 pages. A personal strength of mine is I get the job done when it needs to be and make sure I have no distractions and I usually make my descriptions short, but sweet as cherry coke.                          http://tonyhawk185.blogspot.com/2013/09/after-month-had-past-since-his-father.html

 

Jazz has just found out his father keeps killing people and the bodies are piling up and the town has no clue it's jazzes father. But jazz feels like letting go from all the guilt that his father caused. And jazzes new friend is starting to get suspicious. Jazz is the one to blame if his father disappears because of his family history and his father.

Jazzy has a new friend who still does not know about jazzes father she must be brainwashed. Jazz wants to keep a friendship for once and not let his father ruin it for him. This would be one of jazzes first friends that he could actually say they were friends.

The setting of this book is current time in a town quite like Mason. There has only been 3 characters so far involved in the book. This book has a lot of gory parts in it and a lot of cursing so I'd recommend to mature audience who are ok with slow painful deaths and gore.

I have started a new book called I hunt killers and it has 324 pages in it. I am already 52 pages in to it and from what I can tell it is a horror book. So far I know the main character is jazzy and his dad is a serial killer. And it had parts that jazzy had thought about killing to. And he does some stake outs to find about his dad.

I finished off tony hawk to a happy ending where tony goes pro at the age of 20. He goes to win 13 xgames medals and set 2 world records. The xgames let tony begin his own video games and even make a couple of movies. And finally tony got married and had 3 kids and one of them is currently a pro.

I got a little bit farther in the book but not much farther. Tony is still not getting over his fathers recent passing because his father meant the world to him. He loves his new friend (as mentioned last week.) And tony is strting to lose his interest in skateboarding but still keeps riding ever so often to keep in check.

This week i am doing book recommendations for my book. There is alot of drama from what i have read so far. And it is an easy to follow and is an easier read than most biographys and if you are into skateboarding this book is perfect for you. There is uasully only one thing going on at a time so it makes it easier to follow and you dont get confused with a bunch of things going on.

In the chapters I have been reading tony is starting to get a lot happier than he used to be. He is starting to put him self out there and rise up to the challenge. He still cannot afford to have a membership at oasis skatepark. And tony has a new best friend.

There is a new charecter to add to Tonys life. That charecters name is jake, jake would probably be Tonys friend throughout high school. Tony and jake hang out every day after school and skate in Tonys neighborhood. Tonys new friend helped him get over his fathers death.

After a month had past since his father past away Tony is starting to get back on his feet again. Tony recently had to quit oasis skatepark because his family could not afford to keep his membership with the skate park. Tony started to go into a deep depression and did not leave his room for a week he would not even eat! Then he started getting bullied at school for being so skinny and short.

I have been reading for the past week through this book and have been enjoying it. Tony's father has recently died after all the years of support for his skating. And he was finally in a commit ion at the oasis skatepark. And he is not doing very well in school because all he does is skate!he recently got sponsered by a not well known company. some new charecters are Eddie who is tonys friend through high school. the theme is depressing because Tonys father had just past and they do not have alot of money.
