A quick and easy read that's a lot of fun. It's a madcap adventure from start to finish. Thanks to LibraryThing for the free copy! Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. Each of the books in the Seven series follows a grandson as he carries out his grandfather's last request. Jump Cut is Spencer O'Toole's story. Because he dreams of being a filmmaker, Grandpa D sends Spencer to visit aging B-movie star Gloria Lorraine and film her giving him a kiss on the cheek. Spencer cannot understand the reason behind the request, but that is all part of what proves to be an interesting journey as Spencer, as do all good YA protagonists, learns a lot about himself along the way. This is a wonderful, quick read perfect for more reluctant readers or anyone who enjoys a good YA aimed at boys. Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. This was an interesting story with a great premise and quite a cast of characters. Not entirely believable, but enough to draw interest to the other books in the series. Recommended to potential movie-makers and those who like series with books written by different people. Diese Rezension wurde für LibraryThing Early Reviewers geschrieben. I got Jump Cut in the early review program. It is a great YA book, fun and easy read. Definitely a great book for male teenagers as most of the characters are male. keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

HTML: Spencer loves movies, but real life is boring, right? When his late grandfather's will reveals the tasks he wants his grandsons to undertake, Spencer thinks he got screwed. He's not going to France or Spain or Africa. He's not even getting a cool tattoo, like his younger brother. No, he's going to Buffalo to get a kiss from an ancient movie star. Gross. And he's supposed to film it. Grosser. But Spencer hasn't bargained on Gloria Lorraine, star of the silver screen back in the day. Gloria has big plansâ??plans that involve her granddaughter AmberLea, a gun, a baker who might be a gangster, some real gangsters and a road trip to Nowheresville, Ontario. After being shot at, jumping into an icy lake and confronting some angry bikers, Spencer finally realizes that real life can be as exciting (and dangerous) as reel life.

This was a very fast, middle grade read. The story is gender neutral, which is great. There are elements that will probably attract boys more, and some that will draw girls more. But it was the gangster part of the story line that really kept the story moving along. One thing I liked most was that Spencer seems to be more of an introverted character, and not the stereotypical boy who likes sports and showing off. If you are looking for a contemporary middle grade novel that is not romantic in nature, you should check this out." ( )
