Boom by Mark Haddon

Jim must agree that some of his actions are just plain stupid.  Jim sometimes just does things, without even thinking.  Usually things end up well, but this time, Jim isn't really sure.  Charlie might be one of the reasons.  Charlie likes to take risks.  When you ignore your best friend, you will always come crawling back.  That's what happened to Jim.  He knew that going into his teacher's house was not a good idea, just because he was suspicious that she talks a strange language with one other teacher alone.  He just went along with Charlie because ignoring your friend is a hard thing to do, so you just give in.  After that moment, when they went into their teacher's house and found things, weird stuff started to happen.  This book will keep you on your toes!
