Funny Business edited by Jon Scieszka

Funny Business is a great book for anyone looking for a good laugh. It has tons of funny stories to entertain anyone, like a murderous turkey, a super hero school, or an alien ghost possessed biker that stole a kid’s room. I forgot to mention that it has a lot of different authors, so I can only really mention the editor, Jon Scieszka. In many ways it is an extremely funny and entertaining book.

I can relate to many of the stories in the book because they are stories about people doing stupid things with their friends, and I do a lot of stupid things with my friends. I’d gladly recommend this book to anyone with a sense of humor. Now GO AND READ IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The Chilling Hour by Collin McDonald

Do you like twisted suspense stories that chill your bones?  Or stories that aren't what they seem?  Then I think The Chilling Hour by Collin McDonald is the right book for you.  In The Chilling Hour there are spooky, warped, thrilling short stories that make you scream.  I like this book because you don’t know where the plot is going to end.  Also because when I read this book the author hooked me by using dialogue.  In one of the stories in this book there’s a family of four on vacation stuck in a blizzard waiting for help.  Will they get out in time before the avalanche hits?  And are they lucky they met a guy named death?  I don’t know!  You find out!

Strange Happenings by Avi

Strange Happenings by Avi is a book that is scary, but yet weird.  Strange Happenings isn’t your plain old peculiar story, that all falls together in the end, no sir it has more than one story, and the only thing they have in common is that they’re all strange.  The first story starts off with a boy and a cat and things take a very unusual twist and end up even creepier.  My favorite story in Strange Happenings is Babette the Beautiful.  It’s a great story about a beautiful girl and her life. The rest of the book is your job to find out.  I recommend the book if you like bizarre messed upped stories.
