Egypt Game Review

Book: The Egypt Game
Author: Zilpha Keatly Snyder
Genre: Relastic Fiction
Review by: Michele Mathis
Rating: 3 out of 5

April, touring Hollywood with her mom, watching her bing in the big lights, finds herself stuck in small town Casa Rosada with her Grandmother Caroline. Her mother left her to tour in a new production in Hollywood. There April meets a shy but bold girl named Melanie. April and Melanie become friends and uncover a secret place which they call Egypt. Then the journey begins. Thourgh thick and thin the Eygpt game sticks together to conquer the challenges. Thourgh out the book more people are watching and want to join the game. Events happen that make Egypt dissaper, there are mystries to uncover.

The book is written with some parts dry, but some fast and furious like when a child suddenly dissapers and when the guilty gets into Egypt. I, personally do not like it because it only has excitement in only some parts not the whole book, like persay, Nancy Drew. It really depends on the way you see it. Read it to see what you think.
