In my reading group we’re reading a book called peak It is about a a fourteen year old named Peak Marcello. He is a climber and one day he decides to climb a skyscraper, but gets arrested and he’s going to get a fine and 3 years of juvie which is a jail for minors, but then his dad comes and tells him that they are moving to Thailand, but really he wants him to be the youngest person to climb Mount Everest. Right now they’re going to advanced base camp so their blood cells get used to the high elevation. And they can attempt the summit.
Hope you enjoyed and comment if you have read this book or a book similar.

Libby i enjoyed reading your post. But why did Peak Marcello get arrested and what time period is he living in?

Dear Isabel,
Peak Marcello got arrested for climbing the skyscraper because he did not have any permission and this is taking place in current time.

Hi Libby,
I really enjoyed reading your blog post. Peak is a great novel and I really enjoyed reading it. Roland Smith has a couple of other novels such as Ascent that you may enjoy reading as well.
Best,
