I am reading the book Cover-up by John Feinstein. I am currently on page 278. The plot so far is that there is a scandal at the Super Bowl and two 14 year old kids or trying to tell people about it. I am liking the book because, it is about football and that is my favorite sport. I also like the book because it is very suspenseful and keeps you wondering what is going to happen next.
The setting is in Indianapolis, Indiana at the Super Bowl. The Characters name are Stevie, and Susan Carol. They are two 14 year old reporters at the Super Bowl. They find out about a scandal at the Super Bowl and try to tell people about it through the news papers that Stevie writes for. The owner of the Dreams one of the teams in the Super Bowl tries to cover it up by paying doctors.
My favorite quote is "The bad guys win, the cheaters get to play, and Meeker [the owner of the dream's, one of the teams in the Super Bowl] gets away with his cover-up," (back cover). This is my favorite quote because, it is a classic thing that happens in stories were it comes down to the last minute. This is my favorite because, I like it when you goes down to the last minute and it makes you want to keep reading and find out if the bad guys get away with it or the good guys catch them before they get away with it. I would recommend this book to anybody who likes football or likes to watch football. This is just a great book all around.

Crackback, By John Coy Fiction
Crackback is the first book I have read this year year and it was fantastic. The quote I choose was know where your tools are at all times because, Miles stapels his finger to a matress because he works at a store that sells mattresses. That is important because, if you have an accident at work or any where else you need to have the proper tools to get out of the situation. Its memorable to me because that is the part of the book that I remember the most. The plot is if Miles will follow his friends and take steroids or will he say no and be cut off from his friends.
This was my favorite book because, it was about football and that is my favorite sport. The things I disliked about the book is that it didn't go that well into detail. I think that it is an awesome book for anybody to read that likes football. Another thing I liked is that there was a lot of tension through out the book. Miles and his friends were going at it with each other the whole book.
