Summary: Written Critique on Losing Joe's Place
Comment: Losing Joe's Place was the best book I ever read. I thought it was the best book because it was three boys who had and apartment to themselves for the whole summer and they end up messing up everything. It was funny to see them mess up the apartment they were in, not get the girls, and not even have enough money to pay the rent. Not only was that funny but when they first got to the apartment it was nothing they expected. They thought it was going to be beautiful and big but it was in the ghetto area, one room apartment, over a deli, and the paint was peeling off.

When reading this book I did not lose interest once. Every page you turn there is something happening that makes you want to read what's going to happen next. The author was going from bar fights to two guys going out with the same girl at once and it just grabbed my attention. Not only were the events in the book making me want to read more, but also the characters.

Out of the three characters I liked Don the best. I liked Don because he tried to get all the women but was never successful but he never had a negative attitude. Ferguson and Jason would always say we have no chance but Don would also be the one who said we do have a chance. Also I liked Don because he was the leader of the group and he took charge of everything. The author did a very good job in creating the characters. I liked all three of them but Don more than the others.

In conclusion Losing Joe's Place was a very good book. I learned many things from reading this book. For example don't take two friends with you if one of the friends hates the other. This caused many problems in the book and instead of Jason's plan to get them to be better friends they ended up hating each other more and more. I would recommend this book to anyone who enjoys a humorous book or a book about teenagers. If I loved this book I think everyone would love it too.

Summary: Losing Joes Place
Comment: Losing Joe's Place was a pretty good book. It seemed like everytime you turned the page something new happened.
It is about these three boys who leave for the summer to live in the big city. They are able to stay at a friend's borther's apartment. Once they arrive at the apartment complex they find out its nothing like they imagined. First of all the apartment complex is located in a dull and dumpy part of the city. Then they meet their landlord Plotnick, which is not a pleasant experience. He is a grumpy older man who has a major attitude problem. which is not a pleasant experience. After they are all settled in their apartment they go out for the night and have a good time, but in the morning they find out that they have a very large bill. After paying the bill they are flat broke. The boys get a job at Plastics Unlimited. One of the three boys figure out a way to design an automatic feeder system. So that eliminated the need for feeders, the other 2 boys. The boys spend most of their summer jumping from job to job.
Throughout the book the three boys have little feuds with the landlord, Plotnick.
The three friends conquer obstacles everyday such as finding their stolen car or paying a hefty bill. But whatever it is it will keep you turning the pages.
I would definitely recommend this book to younger people, though adults would have fun reading it also.
