Books in Sixth

How cool is it to uncover clues and solve puzzles that would lead you to hidden books throughout your city?   After reading this book, I’m wondering why we don’t have a game like this, because I would be the first to join. Book Scavenger is an online game where players hide books in different cities in different places throughout the US.  The book scavenger must complete puzzles/ciphers to reveal clues to find the books.  I was immediately drawn to this Pokémon Go for Book Nerds and thought how cool it would be to actually play and participate in this game.  Of course, there are a bunch of other rules and such, but I’ll leave that for you, the reader to discover. This is not a book I usually pick up when I’m browsing through the library or bookstore, but what a pleasant surprise. The whole premise of this story was just…. well…..AWESOME! The Creator of Book Scavenger, Garrison Griswold, has been seriously injured and at a time that he was to release a new, unique game

My big question is... WHERE has this book been hiding all these years?!  What a GEM!  The futuristic world in this book is so unique and different from anything I have ever read, yet made so familiar through masterfully crafted, vivid descriptions.  In other words, this author can WRITE!! My mind is swimming with pod-fighters, Ghengis borgs, The Golden Turrets, Fit Mix, plastic flowers, Awen the Dog?, The Shadows, Mutants, and giant Hawks. What a wild ride!  Mika lives in futuristic London behind a concrete wall designed to protect this overcrowded population from rabid animals; apparently animals carry a deadly Plague.  Mika has a twin sister who disappeared, presumed dead to most, but not to him.  A mysterious organization infiltrates Mika's school and begins recruiting kids for virtual reality pod-fighting games offering huge rewards to the winners.  Maybe this is Mika's opportunity to finally find his sister or at least uncover the truth of what's really going on be
