Eagle Strike by Anthony Horowitz, 322 pgs.
TOTAL: 1,883
Review: I enjoyed the book, but, just a warning, it is a very worldly book. Unfortunately, there is language, several remarks that are inappropriate, and plenty of violence. I don’t usually read books like this, but since I had it, I just decided to read it and finish it. This book is not for the people who try to avoid worldly books.

Scorpia by Anthony Horowitz, 388 pgs.
TOTAL: 2,271
Review: This is the sequel to the last book I read. Unfortunately, it was (again) very violent, there was some inappropriate content, some language, and (honestly) just flat out evil. So, I’ve definitely read better books. Just to show an example of how evil some of the stuff in the book was, this is was “Scorpia” stands for: Sabotage, Corruption, Intelligence, Assassination. Need I explain more?
