Student Saturday - Discordia - Dena K. Salmon


Student Saturday is a day I post reviews written by other students.  The review that follows is written by  Zack M.

Discordia is a book about a new dimension where three characters Adam, Lance and Reyve are gamers who were sucked into the game (literally). They were stuck in Discordia and lived the life of their characters. My favorite character in this book is Lance, because he is the tallest and likes the video game the most, though he does have a bit of a problem where he turns into a zombie. Still my favorite character is lance because I can relate to him and our personality is similar. I like this story’s plot because it is exciting and actin packed. It was one of the best books I have read in a long time. Eventually they find their way out but end up losing their new friend Reyva when their supposed ally yanks her back through the portal that leads to reality. The end of the story leaves you wondering what happens next, do they find Reyva, and is there another book? Is Reyva okay? So, I suggest that you read this book because I deeply enjoyed it and hope you do because of its relatable characters, plot and action packed adventure. All in all it’s a great book. I hope you’ll enjoy.

Off the Grid



To all of you who have been participating in the Spring Reading Challenge or who have been following my blog, I will be off the grid until this weekend (fingers crossed).  We are moving today and we will not have internet until sometime on Friday they tell us.  We hope.
