Shadow Wave

For this reading check I decided to read Shadow Wave Its a book about a cruel governor who tears down islands to build hotels and get richer. It is also a book in the oh so famous Cherub series. I feel that I am becoming too old for this series and style of books because I can literally read one of the cherub books in 3 hrs. Shadow Wave is the final cherub book with James Adams as the main character. James's friend comes to campus to hang out and James tells him about the governor. James's friend Kyle did an earlier mission that involved this governor and decides to catch him in the act. James is torn between following the law or his loyalty to his best friend. I think that this is sometimes what peer pressure is like, it's either following the law and letting your friend down or breaking the law and helping your friend. It is a very tough decision even though it sounds like a very easy one. I think that this book didn't portray it well because they made it seem like a small decision. Another thing I found kind of dissatisfactory about this book is that in the middle of the book a flashback occurs and it is relevant but extremely boring. I would recommend reading this book if you have read all of the other cherub books, but if not I wouldn't pick this one up.
