Dead End in Norvelt

  I have reached page 70 and so far the book has been pretty fun. There was suspense and excitement. It's not a book that you would find in any library because it's weird and there are things that happen in the book that are pretty disgusting like when Miss Volker cooked her hand and the way they described how it looks after she cooked it, may give you goosebumps. But, overall I'm enjoying it, the book is about a kid called Jack and about the adventures he had during his holiday. Here is a continuation of the blog I wrote about before.

When, he shot his father's rifle he had been punished by his mum, so he has to go to Miss Volker's house to help her out because she was old if not he would do the house chores. The most interesting events happened at Miss Volker's house who is the town's historian. She was originally from the town where they lived in, so she knew a lot about it. He has to write obituaries about the people who die. Miss Volker treated Jack like a man so she allowed him to drive the car and to do nasty things like cleaning up the rats in the cellar. 

Jack met a girl called Bunny who was very nice to him and she realised that Jack was scared of dead people so she brought him to a funeral parlour. She lifted the dead man's cap and forced Jack to touch the man's neck and he didn't feel any pulse, so this freaked him out.  She was a bit weird, but was a very funny girl and she liked to play boy sports like running or playing with balls. She was his best friend.
