Code Orange

By: Caroline B. Cooney

Narrated by: Jeremy Beck

Walking around New York City was what Mitty Blake did best. He loved the city, and even after 9/11, he always felt safe. Mitty was a carefree guy - he didnt worry about terrorists or blackouts or grades or anything, which is why he was late getting started on his Advanced Bio report. Mitty does feel a little pressure to hand something in. If he doesnt, he'll be switched out of Advanced Bio, which would be unfortunate since Olivia's in Advanced Bio. So he considers it good luck when he finds some old medical books in his familys weekend house that focus on something he could write about. But when he discovers an old envelope with two scabs in one of the books, the report is no longer about the grade...it's about life and death. His own.©2007 Caroline B. Cooney (P)2009 Audible, Inc.

Mild interest

The book was only mildly interesting. Good read but no cliffhangers or surprise ending. Someone i interested in disease may like it.

So Funny

I laughed so hard at the young kid who is the worst (best?) procrastinator in literature. I’ve got to give this book full props for depicting NYC really well. I lived in an UWS coop for 8 years and the atmosphere and descriptive detail is dead on.

Interesting!

More interesting than I expected! Wasn't sure what to think, but I did end up enjoying it.

good not great

When I originally started this book I thought it was an interesting concept. As I read the book I never stopped thinking this but I did find it crony at times. The book differently caters to a younger audience but when it tries to scare or become serious it just fall short of making it seem realistic. It seems like a movie or tv show you find on Netflix or on Teen Nick.

short and good

I had this book for my book report this summer and I very much enjoyed it . Yes this is our older book but I enjoyed it . this is not usually something I will read on my own, but it has encouraged me to start reading more books like this.
