GILDA JOYCE PSYCHIC INVESTIGATOR - Jennifer Allison
In this book Gilda Joyce told her class, she as going to San Francisco for the summer. When Gilda's father died she wanted to communicate with her father. When she arrives in San Francisco at her long lost cousin's house she figures out about Juliet's aunt. They struggle to become friends and try to figure out family secrets.
Gilda the main character struggles to become friends with her cousin Juliet.
The struggle for Gilda was Juliet. Juliet broke her ankle and she would only lay in her bed and wouldn't come out of her room. Juliet even didn't come down for dinner she would eat eggs and celery. Also the first time she time they talked Gilda asked about Juliet's foot she slammed the door on Gilda's face.
Gilda change during the book because in the beginning Gilda was on her typewriter almost every second of the day typing about Juliet or her father besides at dinner time and other times but during end she started to get more and more involved with the mystery of Juliet's aunt Melanie. Also in the begging they hated each other but near the end they starred making friends with Juliet. They started to begin to solve the mystery together and try to be as sneaky as possible so Juliet's father, Mr. splinter wouldn't catch them.
Gilda struggle was becoming friends with her long lost cousin Juliet. That relates to a problem I had because sometimes my cousin are sometimes a little crazy. But like Gilda they still love each other.
RATING: ****

GILDA JOYCE THE LADIES OF THE LAKE Jennifer Allison
In my book Gilda Joyce (the main character) is going to an all girls school. Lots of people say the school has the ghost of a girl named Dolores Lambert that died by drowning in a frozen lake. Throughout the book Gilda was trying to find more information about Dolores Lambert. In the book Gilda goes around the school and tries to ask some people some questions about Dolores or they tell Gilda a time of when they saw the ghost of Dolores Lambert roaming around the school.
The main character was Gilda Joyce and she struggled with another character .
Throughout the story Gilda struggles to find out more about the ghost of Dolores Lambert and what the ghost did around the school.
At the end of the book Gilda signed up for a paper writer club to write about the ghost and what scary things it does around the school.
Gilda is like me because I think it's fun to read mystery books or to do it because it is like being a detective trying to figure out a problem.

One summer day Gilda Joyce was in the big city and she was heading up to her apartment.Gilda was spending the summer in a spy convention group.Gilda visited so many places like the science museum.Then after a few weeks Gilda got so bored the only place she visited was the spy convention.After awhile every time Gilda went to the spy museum Gilda started seeing a women who had a blood stained star.Gilda was so curios.Gilda ran home to think about this.After awhile it became dark.Gilda went to bed and then Gilda had this wacky dream about Abraham Lincoln and Gilda wanted to know what that meant.At five a'clock Gilda called her friend Wendy and Wendy answered the phone grumpily.Gilda started yelling about what happened.Wendy froze for a second and then said it was probably something weird. Gilda pondered on this wacky image but she couldn't figure it out!Do you think you know what's happening and is it fake or real?
