The Egypt Game

Genre: Realistic Fiction
Rating: 1 out of 5

Genre: Realistic Fiction
By Haley Glandorff


The Egypt Game is about the first real friendship that Melanie had, and it happened to be with April Dawn. April Dawn is a girl "visiting" her grandmothers while her mother is on tour. Through their friendship they find likes, dislikes, interests and most importantly, there passion for Egypt. Together they create the Egypt Game in a mysterious backyard. The game participation triples from 3 to 6. When mysterious things start happening has the game gone to far...

The Egypt Game was defiantly NOT the best book ever. I did not like the book because the book was not exciting or interesting. There were some chapters that were as slow as snails but others were fast and furious. The parts thar I did like was the tragity, Dorthea, and the new members of the Egypt Game. The book over all was not the best.
