Alcatraz #1: Alcatraz Versus the Evil Librarians

Alcatraz #1: Alcatraz Versus the Evil Librarians

By Brandon Sanderson

This book is creative. It is also a little interesting. It is about a 13-year old boy who is a klutz. He finds out he has a special talent after he gets a package of strange sands(yes, sands) for a birthday present. He meets other people with strange talents like his. One of the weird people that he meets is his grandfather. His grandfather is a little crazy and somehow convinces Alcatraz that he lives in a world controlle d by evil librarians. They go on a somewhat wild adventure after the sands that he got for his birthday get stolen by the librarians. Overall, this book is a cool but somewhat confusing. I hope you found this review helpful. Have a nice week!

Time Castaways #1: The Mona Lisa Key

Time Castaways #1: The Mona Lisa Key

By Liesl Shurtliff

Matt, Corey, and Ruby are told never to go on public transport without their parents. Simple enough, until they are late for school and their parents have left in the middle of the night without a note. In a hurry, they race to the subway and end up getting on the wrong train. Like, really wrong. When they board, they discover that the odd subway car is actually a time-traveling, shape shifting ship. The three siblings meet an assortment of random characters aboard the ship, and travel throughout time, "saving" artifacts by stealing them, with the promise that they will be returned, safe and sound. They are told by the captain that they can return home at any time, but is he really on their side? It seems like it until some deeper secret is uncovered...

The Search (Kidnapped, Book 2)

The Search (Kidnapped, Book 2)

By Gordon Korman

This book series is definitely better than the first one, although On The Run was amazingly written and I suggest that you read On The Run preferably BEFORE you read the Kidnapped series, because you won't understand Kidnapped if you haven't read On The Run. This book is better because there is less drama than On the Run. On the Run really pulls you into the story and makes you understand the urgency of the situation, and I am happy to say that Gordon Korman has not lost his touch for writing these kind of stories. I really enjoyed this book, and I am about to read the 3rd one at this very moment.

The Alchemyst - The Secrets Of The Immortal Nicholas Flamel

The Alchemyst - The Secrets Of The Immortal Nicholas Flamel

By Michael Scott

' "Okay - answer me this: why would anyone want to wear an overcoat in San Francisco in the middle of summer?" Sophie Newman pressed her fingers against the Bluetooth earpiece as she spoke. On the other side of the continent, her fashion - conscious friend Elle inquired matter - of - factly, "What sort of coat?" Wiping her hands on the cloth tucked into her apron strings, Sophie moved out from behind the counter of the empty coffee shop and stepped up to the window, watching men emerge from the car across the street. "Heavy black wool overcoats. They're even wearing black gloves and hats. And sunglasses." She pressed her face against the glass. "Even for this city, that's just a little too weird." ' (Quoted from book) 'The Alchemyst' by Michael Scott is for those who love constant action and suspense. The book is mainly a fantasy, but there are historical figures, such as Nicholas and Perenelle Flamel, weaved into the story. In fact, Nicholas Flamel's name on the cover (The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel) is what drew me to select this book. I've read a few books in which he was mentioned, and soon came to realize that Flamel was not a character in a singular story, but a real person, and I selected the book to find out what personality this author gave him. In the book he is deceptive, and yes, immortal. His deceptiveness is most prominent at the beginning of the story, where he and his wife are disguised as Nick and Perry Fleming. They own a local bookstore at which Josh Newman is employed. Josh's twin sister, Sophie, works across the street at a coffee shop. When Perry visits Sophie at the coffee shop, there is a disturbance in the bookstore, and they both hurry over to see what's wrong. When they enter, they are met with havoc. Dr. John Dee, an ally of the Dark Elders, seeks Flamel's secret to immortality: The Codex. Josh and Sophie realize that the Flemings are not who they say they are while Flamel and Dee are speaking to one another, Dee using magic to pull the book from where it was hidden. Josh seizes the book in a moment of confusion, but then Dee takes the book and Perenelle and leaves. What he doesn't realize, though, is that when he snagged the book from Josh's grasp, two very important pages were ripped from the book, and he is left with only part of what he wants. Nicholas, Sophie and Josh are being hunted, and they don't know who to trust. Flamel has helped them so far, but what exactly are his motives? An exciting part in the story was when Nicholas, Sophie, and Scathatch are struggling to fend off the skeletal army Dee has awakened. Josh is seperated from them, and the fog makes it impossible for them to find each other. It is very suspenseful. My favorite passage, though, was as follows: ' "The girl has one of the purest silver auras I've encountered in many an age. She needs to be taught some spells of personal protection if she is to survive the rest of the Awakening process. The fact that she's still sane and whole these many hours later is testament to her strength of will." ' I liked this passage because it shows just how mentally strong Sophie is, and portrays her as a tough character. I can understand what Josh feels like when Sophie gains her powers. He feels alone, abandoned. I can relate to this because whenever my sisters spend the night at a friend's house, it feels wrong in the house. It just doesn't feel right, and I can imagine how Josh feels through this connection. I highly recommend 'The Alchemyst' by Michael Scott to those who enjoy reading stories filled with action and high suspense. I also recommend this book to people who love history and fantasy, as this book tweaks the personalities of real people and spins them into tales of fantasy.

Paper Towns

Paper Towns

By John Green

This was an amazing piece of work from an already well known author. Paper Towns in very unique in the way that rather focusing on what is happening in the book's universe, it focuses on what exactly is happening inside Quentin "Q" Jacobsen's mind. From his unhealthy love for his childhood friend, Margo Roth Spiegleman to his opinion on poetry and music, Greene allows you into the mind of Q. The plot seems simple; Margo disappears and Q wants to know where she is. However, this doesn't stop our author from giving the novel more complexity and underlying meanings. Q's utter fascination with Margo is, in my opinion, the most peculiar thing about the story. Although she pays him no attention, he is interested in her life. He thinks of her as an exotic creature rather another girl his age. To my disappointment, I soon learned that Margo was NOT in fact an exotic creature. She was only interesting because no one understood her reasons, which was mainly because she kept them secret. Margo always wants something dramatic and boisterous without previous thought of ho it may affect others. If you are in search of a book that will open your mind to new concepts about life and people, this is the book for you. If, however, you crave a book that answers every one of your "why's", I must inform you the novel seems to lack that aspect. Nevertheless this is a timeless book that you will not be able to relate to, but instead grow from.
