Dawn and the Big Sleepover (Baby-Sitters Club, 44)

Dawn and the Big Sleepover (Baby-Sitters Club, 44)

By Ann M. Martin

Okay, everyone! I am finally, and I mean finally, picking up speed in the BSC series. I sure do love this series. If you are not already, I highly suggest reading the entire series (the old ones not the new ones or the graphic novels). So, I am on #44 Dawn's Big Sleepover. And a little interesting fact, my mom and my sister both read this series when they were younger. My sister owns the old BSC books, so she gave them to me. Happy reading! P.S. I will tell you all about this book when I am done. I just have to get it at the library!

Michael Vey 5: Storm of Lightning

Michael Vey 5: Storm of Lightning

By Richard Paul Evans

Michael Vey: Storm of Lightning is the fifth installment in the widely popular Michael Vey series. It again stars a group called the Electroclan, a group of kids that are hunted by an evil corporation called the Elgen, because most of the Electroclan have electric powers such as throwing thunder, taking away pain, among other things. This book starts right where the last one ends, (Spoiler alert if you haven’t read the last one) where the resistance base that they stayed at was destroyed. This book is not very interesting, as almost nothing happens, and I feel that it doesn’t live up to the other books in the series, like blowing up the Ampere or rescuing the Jade Dragon. This book doesn’t really have anything like that; it’s more of a bridge to the next book, and only serves to explain some plot points that are not very interesting, nor do they have much to do with the main plot. The book introduces a new electric child, (which now leaves one more to be revealed) but this character is not used until the very end, and isn’t very interesting. This book advertises “However, I do think that Michael Vey fans should probably read this book, because it is at least a little interesting and adds a little to the overall plot. It advertises “Can the Electroclan pull together to defeat the Elgen once and for all?”, but in reality, there is barely any interaction between the Electroclan and the Elgen, making this book pretyy boring. This book gets a ⅗ for the casual reader, but a 3.5/5 for a Michael Vey fan, or at least read the other ones. I recommend this for Michael Vey fans in the 6th to 8th grade age area, as it will provide some enjoyment for Michael Vey fans, but not as much for newcomers to the series.

Michael Vey: Rise of the Elgen (Book 2)

Michael Vey: Rise of the Elgen (Book 2)

By Richard Paul Evans

"My name is Michael Vey, and I'm more electric then an electric eel. I always thought I was the only one like me, but I'm not. I just found out that there were originally seventeen of us. And the people who made us this way, the Elgen, are hunting us down. You might say we were an accident. The Elgen corporation created a machine called the MEI (short for Magnetic Electron Induction), to be used for finding diseases and abnormalities in the body. Instead it created abnormalities us." My book is called "Michael Vey Rise Of The Elgen". It was written by Richard Paul Evans. The passage I chose was " I cupped my hands together, I was making a snowball, and pulsed. To my surprise a ball of electric formed almost like a soup bubble, except with more weight, like a Ping-Pong ball." I chose this passage because I was surprised he could do that. A connection is that I have talents too. If you want a book with action this is your book. This is a five star book. I recommend this book and the first one.

Liesl & Po

Liesl & Po

By Lauren Oliver

Surprisingly, Liesl & Po was one of the best non-horror books I ever read. I normally go for horror, science fiction, or future fiction books, but this one caught my eye. It was very emotional in some parts and I even found myself feeling pity for Will (an alchemist's apprentice). I recommend this book for those who like touching stories about friendship and adventures. Enjoy if you decide to read :)

365 Days of Wonder: Mr. Browne's Book of Precepts

365 Days of Wonder: Mr. Browne's Book of Precepts

By R. J. Palacio

This is a very inspiring book that you can read over and over again. The book is a companion to the popular book, Wonder. The book is full of amazing precepts. The some of them are Mr. Browne’s precepts from during the school year, and some are the precepts that students have handed in. There is one precept for every day of the year, in total, 365. I between each month there is a passage. Some are just Mr. Browne talking, but some are e_mails Between students and Mr. Browne. The e-mail’s uncover the answer to a question that Julian, Jack, Summer and Auggie have been asking themselves since the end of the school year. This is a great book to read, and I loved reading the precept of the day each day!!!

Michael Vey 6: Fall of Hades

Michael Vey 6: Fall of Hades

By Richard Paul Evans

Wars are not won with manpower, they are won with checkbooks. That is what Michael Vey and the Electroclan is doing in Michael Vey Book 6: Fall of Hades by Richard Paul Evans. This book takes place on modern times and is in several places in the World. The Electroclan are going to carry out their deadliest mission yet, stealing the Elgen’s floating Fort Knox, the Joule which is in Tuvalu. In Fall of Hades Michael Vey and the Electroclan with the Resistance are the Protagonists, the antagonists are Admiral General Hatch and the Elgen Inc. Hatch has sentenced 2 of his electric teens, Tara and Torstyn to death and another electric teen, Quentin to a lifetime incarnation to a monkey cage. The Electroclan is also planning on freeing their former enemies Quentin, Tara, and Torstyn before hijacking the Joule because the Electroclan will need their powers to steal the floating gold vault. The turning point in this book is when Captain J.D. betrays the Electroclan and notify the Elgen and Admiral General Hatch that the Electroclan has come to free Quentin, Tara and Torstyn. Things then continuously get worse and worse for the Electroclan. Will Michael and the Electroclan successfully hijack the Joule or has Michael’s luck finally ran out? I would recommend this everyone who likes science fiction and an action packed book. Notice: Please read Michael Vey books 1,2,3,4,5, before reading Fall of Hades.

Michael Vey 4: Hunt for Jade Dragon

Michael Vey 4: Hunt for Jade Dragon

By Richard Paul Evans

Michael Vey: Hunt for Jade Dragon is the fourth book in the Michael Vey series. The book stars a boy named Michael and his friends, a group called the Electroclan. Most of the Electroclan are electric; the kids have electric powers that vary from person to person. There are 13 electric children. However, they are hunted by the Elgen, the corporation who made them electric, and have some of the electric children on their side. The Elgen recently kidnapped a autistic genius named The Jade Dragon who has the formula for creating more electric children. The Electroclan will have to travel to Taiwan to rescue the Jade Dragon and stop the Elgen from creating more of them. This book is the best in the series so far, as it is humorous at the right times, while being sad when it needs to. I recommend this book to any middle schooler that read the first 3 books and enjoyed them. This book gets a 4 out of 5 from me as it is a good book.
