Genre: Young Adult /
suspense
Sam Sanderson is an
independent, resourceful, high-tech cheerleader. She dreams of becoming an
award-winning journalist like her mother, and so she's always looking for
articles she can publish in her middle-school paper (where she secretly hopes
to become editor). And with a police officer for a father, Sam is in no short
supply for writing material.
It seemed like the perfect
opportunity.
When an explosive device is
found in the local theater, Sam gets the lead on this developing and
controversial story---controversial because the movie theater has recently come
under attack by a renowned, outspoken atheist for allowing a local church to
show Christian movies. Sam's police-officer father happens to be heading the
investigation, and Sam can't resist doing some sleuthing of her own with the
help of her best friend Makayla's techno-genius. But when Sam's theories end up
being printed in the school paper, she lands in big trouble---and danger!
SAMANTHA SANDERSON AT THE MOVIES is for tweens so I let my tween daughter review it.
She says: It started
slow, but it got a lot better at the end. Most of the story was about a bomb,
and trying to find a suspect. This one guy in the story was getting threats. It
was kinda scary at times.
This was a mystery/suspense
for young adult readers and if you like that genre you might like this
book. $8.99. 272 pages. 3 stars.
