Solitary: Escape from Furnace 2 by Alexander Gordon Smith (reviewed by Zach Fields)

This was a well paced book that was even better than the first. I look forward to the third. This book mixed suspense with a little bit of comedy. It was a thrilling book to read. I didn’t want to put it down. I can’t wait to find out what happens next. Even though most sequels aren’t as good as the first book, this one pulled it off! Keep it up!

Hoorah for new reviewers, thanks to Zach for his first contribution! You, too, can review for this blog. Send us your reviews today and next thing you know, they'll be up here on the blog. You might even get lucky and get the chance to review an ARC like Zach did.

Zach reviewed an ADVANCE READER'S COPY (ARC) of this book, meaning he got a chance to read it before it was published. (FIVE MONTHS before it was published!) and he had a chance to let the library know if it he thought we should purchase it for our shelves or not.

Do YOU want a chance to read and review books before they're published? Do YOU think you could give your opinion on if the library/other people should buy these books? If so, you can ask at youth services or send us an e-mail for more information on how you can get a chance to be an advance reviewer.
