Bio: Tyler
Hey! My name’s Tyler. I’m fourteen, and I attend Ontario Middle School. I have dirty blonde hair, umm… Oh, wait, never mind, that’s not important. I love to write. I’m currently working on a story that actually may have some potential. (I sent an excerpt to a publisher, and they said they loved it!) I love to read also. One of my favorite series is the Icemark Chronicles. I’m not really into non-fiction, so unless it’s an interesting non-fiction book, please don’t recommend it to me. Also, did I mention I can be pretty arrogant, leader-like, and competitive? But don’t let that get in your way. Peace.
Book Review:
Project 17
by Laurie Faria Stolarz
Project 17—one word sums this book up—Bodacious! While combining drama, suspense, and the paranormal, this book is one that you simply cannot put down. Six teens break into an insane asylum on the eve of its demolition to film a movie. Whilst there, they encounter remnants of past occupants and ones who may still linger.
