Murder on the Orient Express

Fifteen peculiar personalities on the most bedazzled and famous train, the Orient Express.  Hercule Poirot is one of these people and is a famous detective.  This book is by Agatha Christie and has 283 pages.  This train is traveling through Europe in the winter.  Poirot is on vacation, but he is suddenly called to London on  important business trip.  So, he rides the Orient Express to get back to London when a murder occurs.  Since, the train is stuck in a snow drift the passengers are stranded on the train and no one can go anywhere.  Thus, the murderer is stuck on the train and Poirot finally nabs them, it, him, her, the couple, the trio, the quartet, the quintet, et cetera, (I do not want to give it away so it can be any of those or the et cetera).  A very good recommendation for anybody who loves mysteries or just anybody. 

The Lost Symbol

The Lost Symbol has 639 pages, and is the third and final book in the Robert Langdon trilogy by Dan Brown.  This time Robert traveled to Washington D.C. for an appointed lecture, but instead he found a thing most peculiar.  He traveled all through Washington D.C. to find the Ancient Mysteries, but he had to hurry because one of his friends life was at stake.  This is a suspenseful novel and a very good recommendation, BUT even though this story is not as bad as The Davinci Code . I would ask my parents first before reading this trilogy!!!! 

A Dream Fulfilled

                                                                        A Dream Fulfilled
                                                                           by Anthony




What happens to a dream fulfilled? 


Does it shine like the morning sun?


Or flow like a silk handkerchief in the wind?


Does it dance like a firework in mid July?


Or soothe like a mother comforting a baby?


Maybe it soars like comets up in space.


Or does it motivate?
