the dangerous days of daniel x

This was another one of those James Patterson collaborations that I’m not fond of. This one was written with Michael Ledwidge. It is also considered to be an “all ages” book, so the level of writing was down a few notches. That said, the story was ok. It’s about this teenager, who is not only an alien, but also an alien hunter (he’s the good guy of the story). Jake’s always complaining that there’s nothing to read, so I’m going to try to get him to read it. I think he might find it enjoyable. The problem is that he’s still reading little kids books, which he finishes in one sitting. He needs to start reading some real books. Before long, he will be at the reading level where he can read anything we have in the library. That should keep him busy.
