Hi guys, it's me. Back from the dead, you could say. Well, my lil' bro' recommended this book to me, and I took a chance on it. I was surprisingly satisfied by it.

The Lab, which I quit after a few chapters because, let's face it, I hated it. However, he redeems himself with
Money Run.
Ashley Arthur ("Please, call me Ash") is a fifteen-year-old thief. Teamed up with Benjamin, they rely on "The Source" to send them their next targets. The book begins with them taking on their biggest challenge yet: stealing $200 million. While Benjamin is the "behind the scenes" tech geek, Ash will be the one physically in the building finding the cash. While trying to simply take the money and run, Ash soon realizes that she gets more than she bargains for: at the same time, assassin Peachy is preparing to kill the millionaire and is prepared to get rid of anybody who stands in his way.
All things considered, I would rate it
four stars. It was very fast paced, which eliminated a lot of suspense, but the twist at the end was what really made my decision. Guys will like this book as well as girls (my younger brother proved) so I would recommend it to just about anybody between the ages of 12 and 15.
So, hurry over to your local library and give it a try. I'll return it soon, trust me, and it'll be all yours.
