My idea!

I think that this was an excelent book filled with mystery and suspense,for example when Shad and his brother are in the marsh and neither can swim.A boat goes by,but Shad suspects them to be on Kinlo's side.I think that it also taught that you should never judge a person by their first appereance,like when Shad believes that the guy who is going to help him turns out to be on Kinlo's side.I think that a lot of people would enjoy this book.

Thinkative

Smugglers' Island has a very good storyline. It has a little bit too much going on but it's very, very interesting. I was dreaded to read it but I forced myself into it. It got interesting and I couldn't get my face out of it. I would buy it but it'll take a little time to read.

This book is entense, myserious, and every thinkitive.

I like this story because, I like mysteries books. It takes your mind to other levels of thinking of what minght happen. I give this book 4 stars because this book is easy to follow and understand,and keeps our mind right on the story, and not it wonder off. I feel I would reocomand this book to people that like to read myseroies.
