Skeleton Creek Ryan's Journal by Patrick Carman

5 out of 5 stars is what I would give my book. My book is skeleton creek Ryan’s journal. It is about a boy named Ryan and a girl named Sara they are best friends. Ryan and Sara have are obsessed with going to see the dredge number 43 dredge a machine that digs up gold and separates it from the ground. It has giant gears the size of a car tire. A guy named old Joe Bush worked on the dredge.  Sara and Ryan found out that old Joe Bush got sucked into the gears. They end up sticking their noses were they don’t belong. After a couple more visits Ryan was next to a puddle and he fell into the puddle but it was no ordinary puddle. The puddle he fell into was the one that old Joe Bushes body fell into. Ryan broke his leg in the process. This made the kids parents mad and made it where they could not see each other again. But that did not stop Sara she kept going to the dredge and finds some creepy things. Ryan and Sara still broke the rules and snuck out and kept seeing each other. So if you want to find out what happens at the end read Skeleton Creek Ryan’s journal. This book is a series with four books.
