I really enjoyed reading this book. It was very well detailed and interesting. This book falls into my top 10 books ever read, probably in the third, fourth, or fifth spot. Another reason I liked this book is because it just kept me hooked and I didn’t ever want to stop reading it. Some examples of me loving this book were, when Steel tricked his mom to go see his dog Cairo. I love dogs, and I like the idea of being able to trick my mom. Another one of my favorite parts in this book was when Steel uses his dog to track down someone. This is because when Cairo picked up the scent of this bad person, Cairo just randomly started to sprint, and Steel let go of the leash from such a big tug. So when that happened Steel and Kaileigh had to go on a crazy dog chase to find Cairo. But somehow during the chase Steel and Kaileigh got split up from each other and Steel was all by himself. Somehow Kaileigh managed to find Cairo, but Steel wasn’t so lucky. He got scared, stopped running, and slowed to a slow walk. He had found himself in an abandoned part of town, no one around, just some cars abandoned on the street every once in a while. Steel was freaked out. Then Steel, thanks to his photographic memory was able to find Kaileigh and Cairo. He was so happy to see them, but he was still scared. Out of nowhere this lady came up to them and said that they needed to leave the part of town they were in because it was too dangerous for them. Steel disagreed and thought it was a trap. Steel didn’t go with, but he told Kaileigh to go with Cairo to the subway station with the woman. Steel went to go investigate himself. It was a mysterious, interesting, action packed, fun to read book. I do recommend this book to everyone! I recommend it mostly to people who like to read an easy to read book that is very good at the same time. If someone were to be reading my blog, then yes I think they should read it. Steel Trapp is such a good book, and I don’t want it to be left unspoken of. People would love this book and I know I did.

Required Category on Steel Trapp
My main character’s name is Steven Trapp, but people call him Steel for a nickname. He is a thirteen year old boy and is very smart! The book says that he has a photographic memory. It doesn’t describe his physical appearance but I picture him as a very skinny athletic boy. Not very strong but very fast. I also picture him at about five foot one. His personality consists of being very kind, mysterious, curious, and smart. Some goals of his are to win the science challenge in Washington D.C., which he gets invited to during the book. His thoughts are very well thought out, intelligent, and reasonable. Steel is definitely self assured, and most people also agree with what he says. An example of him being self assured is that when this lady leaves a suitcase on a train Steel, comes out to give it to her, and she declines it to be hers. But Steel knows that it is hers. Steel is confident. An example of him being confident is near the end of the book he finds a way to prove that someone has rigged the lottery, and he is totally confident in his theory and reason of why and how it happened. He ends up being right, but luckily the plan he thought of, worked and he stopped the person from winning the lottery. Steel is admirable; this is because he is very smart but he doesn’t brag about it, and he is just a really good person. One example of him being admirable is when he helps his best friend Kaileigh with a problem and she was very thankful for his help. There is no way Steel is self absorbed, he is always helping other people. A reason that Steel is not self absorbed is he goes on a rescue mission, with a very dangerous person after him. He ends up rescuing the lady and gets her to safety! Again, Steel is not self centered, he is again always trying to help people. A different reason that he is not self centered is more than once he was willing or did help someone else with a problem. Steel is not inconsiderate. He is never rude or mean to anyone and never would be. Steel is different from others by being very smart, and he has a great imagination.
