Mitch True is an average person who is a high school journalist. He’s looking for a scoop that could totally change his life, and he finds one in the form of a coach not letting his star player play in a game of football. Mitch has to uncover the truth and find out who’s keeping the coach’s star player down.
My favorite character is Mitch and my favorite part of the book is when he describes the works he has made because it’s reminiscent about his past. I rate this book 4 out of 5 and recommend it to friends because it has shocking secrets.

Payback Time by Carl Deuker is probably one of the best books I have ever read. With mystery, suspense, action, romance, secrets, loyalty and friendship, this book has everything a young adult reader could ask for. My favorite character is Mitch. I admire him and his dream of becoming a famous reporter and have no doubt in my mind that he will achieve these goals. My favorite part of this book is when Mitch meets Kimi because that one event helps to shape the entire story. My second favorite character is Kimi because she is brave and afraid of almost nothing. I would rate this book with 11 out of 10 stars because it was so good. I would recommend this book to all of my friends and family and people I know because I know they will be as captivated with this book as I was!

Payback Time was a very good book. It was a very interesting book with a lot of surprises. I would rate this book 10/10 because it had parts in the story that made you feel happy, sad and even angry. Mitch is a very relatable character with big dreams and very low self confidence considering his height. He is my favorite character. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes sports, journalism and a little bit of action.
