Yet To Read: Apollo 23

Yet To Read: Is about a book that i have not read yet but believe me i really want to. It is me sharing what is on my wish list and reading list. This book description is from Amazon.com

Author: Justin Richards

Pages: 256

Science Fiction

Amazon Price List Price: $11.99

Plot:'For a few moments this afternoon, it rained on the moon'. An astronaut in full spacesuit appears out of thin air in a busy shopping centre. Maybe it's a publicity stunt. A photo shows a well-dressed woman in a red coat lying dead at the edge of a crater on the dark side of the moon - beside her beloved dog 'Poochie'. Maybe it's a hoax. But as the Doctor and Amy find out, these are just minor events in a sinister plan to take over every human being on earth. The plot centres on a secret military base on the moon - that's where Amy and the TARDIS are. The Doctor is back on Earth, and without the TARDIS there's no way he can get to the moon to save Amy and defeat the aliens. Or is there? The Doctor discovers one last great secret that could save humanity: Apollo 23.

Why? The book sounds really good and i am interested to see what this new doctor will be like in print.

My Recommendation: For readers who are looking for a good laugh and a sense of humor, a fabby story and something really easy to get into.

My Thoughts: I'm so happy with this book and the whole series. Again i loved Georgia and her way of describing her life. Louise Rennison really has a very goofy sense of humor and a special way that she See's things through Georgia. This book is just a really nice story to read and it will make you laugh. It's good to read if your looking for something like that. I think we can all relate to Georgia, in the largest way or even just a small way. She's goofy and at the same time lovable. For girls, she's the typical teenage girl - in a none typical way. Her mum always cracks me up, how she's just so disconnected from her daughter, but we all know she loves her. And her sister Libby is Hillary! - she has some little girl problems that are normal. So i thought this follow up was perfect for "Angus-" and I'm just so happy how the story is progressing and i can't wait to read more of the books in this series.

Plot: Georgia Nicolson is dating the Sex God so life should be perfect . . . . . . except in Georgia's life, nothing is ever Perfect. Her cat, Angus, is terrorizing the neighborhood. Her sister, Libby (who is slightly Mad), hides her pooey knickers at the bottom of Georgia's bed. Then the Sex God breaks it off because she's too young. It's time for Georgia to become a heartless boy magnet.
