My favorite book I read in Mrs. LaRow's class is The Fire Game. It is about a group of teenagers in a small town. They are looking for some exciment. During the story a large chain of events occur. Their friend Gabe moved from Soccer City. It turns out Gabe is into lighting fires. In the story they burn down a broken old caretakers house. Then Gabe's car is burnt in the park's parking lot. Then Gabe thinks it is Max that burnt the car because Gabe was ridiculing him when they burnt down the caretakers house. Gabe and Andrea were on a date when his car was lit on fire. Then Jill and Andrea receive a note saying, "Go to the abandoned house on Fear Street." Nick and Max received the same letter. When they all went to the house it was on fire. The note was in blue ink off a computer. Andrea was the only one with a blue ink cartridge. So everyone thought it was Andrea. Her father had bought the computer for her so she could improve her school work. There is a big get together at Andrea house to get to the bottom of the fire at the aboanond house on Fear Street. There is a big argument and everyone leaves with a chip on their shoulder.From that point on the book gets very intreging. So, in conclusion, I think you should read this book today. If you are a R.L. Stine reader and appreciate mysteries then you will enjoy this book greatly.
