The Shadow Club by Neal Shusterman (Great)

I was a bit worried from the official description of The Shadow Club that it wouldn't really get interesting, but I was wrong. It definitely was good, and I'm glad I read it.  I only just now understood the cover, since it looks really weird.  Here it is:



I'm sorry, the cover's a bit blurry, but what can you do?Anyway, if you also don't get the cover after reading it, I'll give you some hints: Tyler, the lighthouse, that night, Tyler's dangerous problem. I hope that helped clear it up.

Here's my description. Jared has always been second best at track. He always gets the silver medal because of the awful Austin Pace. But Jared isn't the only second best; there are others: the second best swimmer, basketball player, singer, brain. All of the second- bests band together to form The Shadow Club to get revenge on all the unbeatables. It starts out as just harmless pranks, but even when they stop messing with the unbeatables, the pranks keep on coming, getting more dangerous as they go.

I really liked this book. It had a nice balance to it. Some dramatic things, some funny things, and acouple heart breaking things. Neal Shusterman is the author of it, which automatically means that it's stellar.

I would recommend reading it. It's not a very long read, but it's good all the same.

It has a sequel, The Shadow Club Rising, that I'm curently reading. I'll tell you guys about it soon.

I'm a bit behind on books, but I'll post with Double Identity and The Shadow Club Rising as soon as possible.

Hope you all have a nice President's Day weekend.
