Warriors: Fire and Ice by Erin Hunter

Cats scratching, hissing and dead cats everywhere. Arraw is all you can hear it's a war zone. Let's rewind it to the beginning. There are a bunch of different clans such as the shadow clan, riverclan, thunderclan, windclan, cats outside clans. So far those are all the clans except for the cats outside the clans. There are cats in each of the clans; there are leaders, hunters, elders, and medicine cats. All of the mess happened because prey was getting low and the weather was starting to change into winter and the hunters were having trouble. The hunters of each clan decided to take the prey of the other clans. The leaders of the clans got sick of stealing each others prey and so they decided to have a war.

Thinner by Stephen King writing as Richard Bachman

Life was good for overweight lawyer William (Billy) Halleck until he accidentally hit a Gypsy woman jaywalking across a street who died from her injuries. Billy's trial was presided over by his friend, Judge Cary Rossington, who absolved Billy of any guilt. The dead woman's father, Taduz Lemke, felt that justice had not been served and takes things into his own hands by putting a curse on Billy by touching him and uttering a single word- "thinner." Billy begins to lose weight immediately and continues to do so until he becomes so thin that he begins to look like a walking skeleton. He takes a leave of absence from his job and sets out on the Gypsies' trail convinced that he can get Taduz to remove the curse if he could speak to him. However, things do not go as Billy Planned, and the ending takes the reader by surprise.

This book makes for good summer reading.
