5-0 out of 5 stars Superb!
Up Country is probably one of the most treasured books I own. I can relate to Carl's feelings and emotions, and every time I read it, the same situational segments of the story still make me laugh out loud. I would recommend Up Country to anyone, based on it's superb characterization and thought.

5-0 out of 5 stars POWERFUL!
I used to not like books this book changed my mind! a must read. Very touching and a great wake up call to life!

5-0 out of 5 stars Amazing!
I read this book for an 8th Grade book report, and I have read it over and over again. Everytime I read it I get the same feelings I had the first time I read it. Carl Staggers feels what a real 16 year old boy would feel if he were in that same situation and it amazes me how well the auther expressed that.

5-0 out of 5 stars Good book
I think that this book is the best book I've ever read, and each time I read it I get the same feeling over again.

4-0 out of 5 stars Courage from despare and hope from depression
Up Country is the story of a young boy Carl who finds the deck stacked against him. How do you find help when your Mom is an alcoholic prostitute? Carl finds it from the most unwelcome source, his upstate relatives in hicksville! How ironic that the only way he can get there is to be caught by the police for helping his mother attack a cop, and then for opporating a theft ring. Lessons from responsibilty, respect, humor, and friendship are to be found with a family that really cares. The really hard choices come when he has to choose between support for himself or helping his Mom. What should any of us do is such cornering times? ... Read more

Book Description

It’s 1993 and fifteen-year-old Brady Benson’s life is about to change forever. Brady relieves the stress of a highly academic school environment by indulging in his favorite pastimes: sports, movies, and video games. Inexplicably, Brady’s video game playing begins controlling the real sporting events! Brady and buddy Tim, nicknamed Bee-Bee and the Chief, decide to fulfill a desire to be rich by gambling. Initially, all goes well, but soon the situation turns sour. The real sports world is topsy-turvy, but worse, the Mafia is after Brady because ineffective player bribes are causing them to teeter on the brink of bankruptcy.

Bee-Bee and the Chief grope for the reason behind the dilemma. Could it be God, a black magic spell, or science? A call from Dan Patrick of ESPN gives Brady the opportunity to appear on national TV to play the Notre Dame vs. Florida State game on his Sega Genesis, but the Mafia also knows he’ll be there.

If this isn’t enough, Brady’s mother is pressuring him to rewrite a composition to improve his grade, but he can’t concentrate!

While ducking the Mafia, can Brady get Michael Jordan out of baseball and stop NASCAR from racing at the Indy 500?

Readers will delight seeing an insecure teenager become a wheeler-dealer, and movie buffs will enjoy the chapter titles which are quotes from or titles of movies. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars Entertaining and Enjoyable
Bonita Wagner's terse suspense novel is perfect if you are in the mood for a fast-paced mystery. Short chapters and plenty of dialogue add to the story's action and pacing.



Travis Bonham and Manny Ruiz are quirky Texas Rangers investigating the death of a teenage boy. They suspect a serious dope ring is living and breathing in their jurisdiction. Simon Caruthers, a powerful and wealthy man in the community, is arrested because the Rangers have strong suspicion he's involved with the sale of illegal drugs. Caruthers hires Perry Hamilton, a successful criminal attorney, to defend him from the charges.



Once teens are hooked on the drugs, the price goes up. For those who can't pay, other arrangements are made, as the strung out teens are forced by their addiction to star in pornographic movies in order to keep flying high. Things go from bad to worse, as a bad shipment of the drugs winds up killing many of the teenage addicts from one particular area. The Rangers need to act quickly to catch the drug dealer and put an end to the deaths and porno flicks.



With unsuspecting twists and turns, Vengeance is Mine, moves like a freight train. The characters are well drawn. Though the novel is short, it is entertaining, and promises to be a quick and enjoyable read.


--Phillip Tomasso III, author of JOHNNY BLADE and THIRD RING

4-0 out of 5 stars A quick satisfying read
Bonita Wagner's latest novel, though short, is a fast and satisfying read.

It's the latest fad drug and it's called 'Boomers'. It's highly addictive. Teenage girls are being talked into trying it, and when they get hooked, they gladly sell there bodies for more. When a bad batch gets out, lives are lost. Mostly young teenagers. This is when Texas rangers' Travis and Manny get on the case.

The story should be aimed at parents and teenagers. A rather moral tale that describes some of the perils of teenage drug use. There is suspense to go with the emotion. It's also laced with humor, especially when it comes to Manny and Travis. Being a short novel, as this was, it did lack some depth but it still kept me in my chair.

5-0 out of 5 stars A very timely mystery
Each book by this author gets better and better! The story is very up-to-date with the happenings in today's world. It was an adventurous mystery that kept my interest peaked and the message was so appropriate that I gave it to my teenager to read. And she loved it too! Hope there's more to come. ... Read more

4-0 out of 5 stars "Dragon Fire" Pulls No Punches
Starriders #1: Dragon Fire is the story of a group of high-school students whose lives are forever changed as they deal with the spill-over effects of the underworld’s newest designer drug. Jason, a brilliant but troubled high school senior, not only has to cope with the normal problems of teenagers â€" parents, girls, grades, etc. â€" but has to learn some very hard real-life lessons about the dark side of the illegal drug industry.

"Dragon Fire" pulls no punches as it confronts the very real situations teenagers face today, and the consequences of the choices they make, yet still tells an entertaining and enjoyable story. In addition to a cast of very real characters to whom nearly any teen could relate, the larger-than-life drama captures the teenage experience perfectly. ... Read more
