The 13th floor...

Two orphans get lost in between floors in a mysterious old building and end up in the midst of a family drama several generations in their own past. Dare they save a family member wrongly accused of witchcraft, when doing so might irrevocably alter, or eliminate, their own existence? Anyone who enjoys stories about orphans, pirates, sailing lore, time travel, historic fiction and witches will get a kick out of this salty yarn.
For me, I would give this book the rate 3/5 because I don't really this kind. Pirates, past, witches...doesn't really catchy for me :D but this book is really interesting too.

Double Eagle

Mike is spending the summer with his dad, per usual. But unlike years past, this summer the 14-year-old is not in Florida.
This year, he’s on an Alabama island, where his dad is teaching at a marine lab. Mike’s not too excited about the change at first, but it’s not long before he and his new friend are exploring an old Civil War fort. They uncover more than they bargained for, though, and when a hurricane bears down on Shipwreck Island, tension mounts.

My opinion:
Mike and Kyle are nicely drawn characters. I love the book’s historical and scientific aspects. I don’t often find the sciences portrayed in a fun yet accessible way. 
Double Eagle is not a wave-making book, but it is definitely a fun read. A great adventure story set in a well-drawn Southern setting against a great back Civil War backdrop.

Song That Is Special To Me... ♥

This song is special to me because it give me the message that: you shouldn't worry about how you're looking. You can have your own style, your own way to be beautiful.
In this song, there is a part that they're saying:
I think I'm ugly
And nobody want to love me
Just like her I wanna be pretty, I wanna be pretty
Don't lie to my face, 'cause I know I'm ugly
This is mean that you hate yourself because you're ugly. But people always lie to you, saying you're beautiful.
You think you are ugly, you think you are left out, you think you are don't need to be in this world...and you always hate yourself because you're ugly, and you think people lie to you by saying you're ugly.
But you're wrong!
You're not ugly! You have your own beauty, and maybe a lot of people notice that, but you didn't. If you learn how to love yourself, you will know that you're beautiful, in your own way. If you accept yourself, you will know that you're beautiful, and the world around you will full of color. This world is not perfect, and nobody is perfect.
