Boost by Kathy Mackel

Boost was a realistic fiction book that is for people who like sports. It was about a teenage girl in 8th grade, like us. Except she is 6, 3.” She has is new in town. She moved from New Mexico to New England. Savvy Christopher has a strong love for basketball. When she arrives, she hears about try outs for a basketball team of 16 year olds, she goes. She meets a new friend, Gonzo. Gonzo and her become best friends. They meet Marc Sadarkis, a hot boy in the high school. Savvy develops a major crush on him, until she sees her sister kissing him. Now, Callie, her sister, is dating Marc. Savvy verses her rivalry team, Power. There is a girl names Goggles on their team who is HUGE. Goggles is a lot bigger than Savvy. She intimidates her, though. Fire beats Power. They are really happy with their victory. Next, are tournaments. They have to verse Power again, and they beat them. After the game, there is a complaint about drugs in Savvy’s locker. They are not hers, they were her sisters amphetamines. She put them in Savvy’s bag after they had gotten in a fight. Her sister tells her family, and starts at a new school. The next year their dad, a former golfer, got an offered job at a school. He took it, and Callie started there the year after her dad took the job. The story has a cute little happy ending. I recommend this book to people who have a passion for sports. It didn’t get boring, and it was a well told story.
