Tween Tuesday: Eruption

*Tween Tuesday is a weekly meme hosted at GreenBeanTeenQueen to highlight great reads for tweens. *
 
**Conclusion of the Trilogy**

Chase, his father, the TV crew, Tomas, and Nicole head for Mexico after the hurricane.  During the hurricane that hit the east coast, an earthquake hit the west coast.

A volcano's about to erupt. Nicole's family and the circus animals are missing.  Tomas's family lives near the volcano. 

They make their way there and split up. Tomas, Chase, and Cindy head for the volcano and Tomas's family while the rest search for Nicole's family and the missing animals.  

The roads are gone. Landslides make traveling almost impossible - unless your John or Chase Master.  They travel through ash, cracks in the Earth, communication blackouts, and with a hungry tiger on the prowl. Will they find their loved ones?

My Thoughts: I loved this series for all the action, the danger, and the suspense. I liked the multiple perspectives in this one - including the tiger. I love Chase. I love John and his sense of adventure (which makes more sense when we uncover a little bit about his background)  A great ending for the trilogy.


Cover Thoughts: Great- really eye-catching!

Tween Tuesday Review: Storm Runners The Surge

*2nd book in a trilogy*

Chase and his friends Nicole and Rashawn have reached shelter from the hurricane. But they aren't safe yet.

They're stuck in a barn - with an elephant about to give birth. The lights are powered by a generator which is nearly out of juice. There is no extra gas in the barn.

Chase and Nicole believe they can make it to the truck where Chase's Dad keeps his supplies. They set off in hopes of returning soon.

A leopard is on the loose. They soon discover the lions have escaped their cages. Treading carefully to avoid the animals and mother nature, they make their way towards the supplies.

Will they be able to gather the gas and return safely to the barn?

My Thoughts: Just like the first book in this trilogy - this book is addictive, fast-paced action and danger kept me turning the pages. A wonderful book about battling Mother Nature, quick thinking, and working together against all odds. The short chapters and the changing of perspectives make this impossible to put down!

Cover Thoughts: Captures the danger and intensity of the book. It's perfect,

Chase and his father travel across the country chasing storms. His father, a master carpenter, works hard to protect buildings from hurricanes and tornadoes. After the storm, he helps rebuild.

Chase and his father settle in Florida. A hurricane is fast approaching land. No one knows where it’s going to hit. Chase’s father has a good idea and he heads to Saint Petersburg.

He leaves Chase behind with friends, who have a daughter his age. Chase enrolls in the school.

All day the news swirls about when and where Hurricane Emily will land.

As the sky darkens, Chase isn’t sure he wants to get on the bus. He tries to stop the Principal from sending everyone home on the bus. He isn’t successful.

My Thoughts: STORM RUNNERS is a fast paced addicting read. With short chapters, tons of action, and danger around every corner, I couldn’t put this book down. I can’t wait for the next installment.
