The Egypt Game is about some kids playing a game that has to do with Egypt. My book review it has a brief summary and my personal opinion of the book.

The book is about Melanie Ross meeting April Hall and they become friends they find out that they both like anything that has to do with Egypt. They decide that Melanie, April and Marshall (Melanies little brother) would make a game about Egypt they assured that they were going to play in the back yard of a mysterious man nicknamed professor. After a while they got a new member of the game named Elisabeth Chung. One day the Egyptians got there 5th and 6th members of the Egypt Game it was Ken and Toby it was fun until strange things started to happen . . .

My opinion about this book is that I spit upon it! Its supposed to be mysterious but it isnt like in pg. 103 it says the figure sprang toward the land of Egypt guess who was the figure?! A boy! BORING!!! Then the author tries to make it more mysterious and it includes murdering like in pg. 70 it says a little girl in the neighborhood had been killed I think that is too much!

I think the author didnt achieve her purpose at ALL! She wasnt mysterious and it wasnt interesting. It bored me to sleep! The writing was boring, ugly and when you are done you want to step on it! Because it wasnt a good theme and she gives to much details but not juicy ones but plane ones which makes it frustrating. The strengths of this book are that is a good way to go to sleep fast and it has good challenging words but not to many. The weaknesses are everything else and its boring theme and also its false intrigue and mysterious. I found it quite dull because it talks too much about that boring theme they are also so many good themes and she had to choose the boringest one!! No one deserves to read that waste of paper (garbage)! Because its too boring the theme and the writing

I conclude that its the worst book Ive ever red and Ill burn it some day! Or also throw it to a pool of sharks for them to eat it. I HATE THIS BOOK!
