Needle and Thread (Main Street (Ann M. Martin))
By Ann M Martin
I saw this book and book 3 of this series at a used bookstore and I wanted to try them because I love Ann M Martin's other famous book series aka The Baby-Sitters Cub. For anyone who hasn't read this series yet, I'll give you a synopsis. Main street books are about Flora and Ruby Northrop who are two girls who've lost their parents in a car crash, and move to Camden Falls Massachusets with their grandmother, and the adventures they have with your friends. There are some complex topics, like a character's abusive alcoholic father which may be intense for some readers. All in all I recomend this book for ages 8+
Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Getaway
By JEFF KINNEY
Christmas is almost here and the Heffley family is way behind on all things Christmas and they want to get away. Even though Greg thinks it's not a good idea as he is perfectly happy staying indoors by the fireplace all through Christmas break, his family decides to go to Isla de Corales for the Christmas and be away from the excruciating cold. They are all packed and they leave for the airport but without taking in consideration all the traffic they will get. They make it to the airport and hit snag after snag. After lots of bumps, they make it to Isla de Corales and instantly they feel better as the hot air hits them. But family holidays aren't family holidays until there is a lot of bickering and that's exactly what ensues. Greg's mother wants the family to spend time together but Greg's dad wants to do his own thing and Rowley wants to do his own thing too. Greg is looking to do lots of cool activities so that he can finally show Rowley that he had stellar time on his getaway. Let's just say that short of getting thrown in jail, the Heffley family gets in all sorts of trouble. I don't know what it is about the Heffely family holidays that they remind me so much of my family holidays. From not leaving for the airport in enough time to end up sitting on the plane in the middle of a different family to getting lost at the resort to birds eating our lunch to not be able to get a single decent family photo are all so relatable and not to mention hilarious. I loved this. 5 stars
Sisters
By Raina Telgemeier
I love this book out of all I think that this book is my 2nd favorite book. I love that there are flashbacks, I think it's really cool that it tells you the past that connects to the future. I also love that it shows that sisters never get along all the time. It also shows that even if sisters usually disagree they can always come to an understanding sooner or later. I think that this a great book and I love all her books. I love the art style. In conclusion I give this book a 5 stars.
Sweet Valley Twins: Best Friends: (A Graphic Novel)
By Pascal, Francine
This book is amazing! How two sixth-grade-twins take on middle school and grow apart a little. And it adds a twist of laughter ever time.
My Vicksburg
By Ann Rinaldi
Claire Louise Corbet, thirteen years old girl who lived during the American Civil War in 1860s. She would often end up in the hospital full of the wounded and sick soldiers in her hometown of Vicksburg, writing letters. Met one of her brothers' prisoner, but how would the war prisoner and Claire Louise end up, enemies or lovers? Would the Corbet family stay united through the years of war? - Happy Reading!
The Bluebird and the Sparrow (Women of the West #10)
By Janette Oke
Berta Berdette, who always felt like she's just a plain and unworthy compared to her younger sister, Glenna who was very outgoing and beautiful. This also had caused the girls' parents to treat them differently due to their personalities. But everything would change, deaths too plus also finding the suitors for both of the girls but delayed for Berta herself. This story is kind of depressing than of what I read of Janette Oke's other books but still I still do enjoy because it gives me the different outlook of how people live due to their past of growing up, their personalities differences but can still set the differences aside and learn and possibly love them for who they are. - Happy Reading!
Journey on a Runaway Train (The Boxcar Children Great Adventure)
By Gertrude Chandler Warner
This book is really cool. Its kinda like a modern adaption of The Original Boxcar Children. The Orphans are recruited by a secret society and are supposed to return artifacts to the right place. The children go on an adventure around the globe. Its a fun and exciting book and I would recommend it to anyone who loves a good adventure!
The Warden and the Wolf King (The Wingfeather Saga)
By Andrew Peterson
Oh my goodness guys there is no possible way i can recommend this book enough!! This book is a book from the Wingfeather Saga book series and my favorite book of all time. It is so full of adventure and is often a roller-coaster of emotions (if you are an emotional person, this book will make you cry!). In this book Janner and his brother are separated from their family (on purpose) mostly due to Kalmar's "terrible secret". Leeli stays in the Hollows and helps the people there the best she can through the power of her music. Meanwhile in Skree, Sarah Cobbler, Maraly, Gammon, and Arthrum are helping orphans from the fork factory find there parents, but there's just one problem: why can't they find Sarah's? Will Janner and Kalmar make it on their jorney? Will Leeli's music be enough? What if Sarah Cobbler never finds her parents? The only part I would say I don't like about this book is it's bittersweet end (it's a little more bitter than sweet). I hope you found this review helpful!!

The Chronicles Of Narnia (7 Book Series)
By C.S. Lewis
Yesterday I read Silverbell. It talks about a girl named Jill Pole to rescue a long lost prince. The prince’s father is sad because there’s no prince to become king after him. The girl travels through an underground world called The Land Of Bism where gnomes roam, eating diamonds.Gnomes are critters like humans, but have a hundred toes. My favorite part is when she gets to the house of the ManChomping Giants, giants who eat men for dinner. First, some lazy men were sleeping nearby. Jill picks the men up and tosses them into the ManChomping Giants’ house. The giants’ house was a big stone fortress, but it had windows on the floor. That part was the funny bit. Then, the girl goes to the Land Of The White Witch, and finds the prince by breaking the witch’s spell. They broke the spell by breaking a silver bell. Finally, they must battle the witch. That part was the scary bit. The moral of the story is to keep trying, even when things look hopeless. I like the story because they had a grand party at the end. If you want to see if they beat the witch, read the story!!!
