Prophecy of the Sisters (Prophecy of the Sisters Trilogy, Book I)

Prophecy of the Sisters (Prophecy of the Sisters Trilogy, Book I)

By Michelle Zink

No one else has read this book either? :'( This is a good book! It is set back in the late 1800s, so I can see how a lot of people wouldn't be interested...but still. There are many plot twists in this book. But here is a summary (AND MANY SPOILERS): Alice and Lia are rich twins. Their mother died when they were children, and their father died more recently. After his death, Lia notices a strange mark on her wrist. Lia then discovers a book about a prophecy: A Gate, Lost Souls, a Guardian, Samial, Keys, and an Angel. Lia was born first, but Alice was always obviously in charge. Alice-the more popular of the two-is starting to act stranger and not like herself. Lia - the one less socially acceptable-follows Alice and one of her friends after escaping from a book shop on a school field trip. They head to a mansion, and inside they find a girl who can communicate with spirits. The girl speaks with their father, turns white, and ushers them back outside. Lia dreams that night that she is flying. Dark creatures appear and give chase. Sonia (the girl who can communicate with spirits) tells her to run. Lia joins her soul back with her body and Sonia comes to visit her. Sonia explains that it is called "traveling the planes". Sonia starts taking apart the prophecy with Lia, and they figure out Lost Souls are angels turned bad and cast from heaven. When Lia and Alice go back to school, no one looks at Lia except for a girl Luisa. Luisa is not socially accepted because she is from a different country, so Lia and Luisa start to be friends. They discover more about the prophecy with Sonia. They meet Madame, a french woman who is an expert in witchcraft. Madame shows them different books that help them continue to learn. Alice uses a knife to cut through a circle on the floor that was protecting Lia from the Lost Souls, and Samuel, the world Lost Soul, who wants to enter the earth as a shadow through Lia. The gate turns out the be Lia, the guardian turns out to be Alice (who wants to let the Lost Souls come in and destroy the world) and the Keys are Sonia and Luisa. Two other girls are the keys but I don't know yet because I haven't read the other books. This is a really good book, and more people need to read it, but I am not going to write any more because I am not sure if this has a word limit.

Bailey M.

I think that this book is a really fun book to read, I have read this book like 5 times. I liked how she described their friendship and how her parents were acting like children. This book is one of the best books that I have read since 5th grade. I also liked how the author put the book into the form of all of the letters they were writing back and forth.

Oliver Twist (Penguin Readers, Level 6)

Oliver Twist (Penguin Readers, Level 6)

By Charles Dickens, Penguin

This book is very special. Not only it tells the story of the lone orphan, Oliver, but also unfolds the harsh reality of the hardships faced by the children & orphans at that time. From the time Oliver was first introduced into the story line, to the time the story had a happy ending, the story was never low on suspense and impacts, Hence I recommend this book to all teen readers(it may be hard to understand for children).

Books for Kids: Diary of a Farting Kid: Fart Battle (fart books)

Books for Kids: Diary of a Farting Kid: Fart Battle (fart books)

By Kawaii Chan

Ugh. Was not funny or good at all. Diary of a farting kid? The minute I heard about it, I knew it was going to be awful. I mean, seriously, fart jokes aren't really that funny anymore, and actually never have been. Putting fart jokes with a parody is not in the least funny. The illustrations are really bad, and the plot of the story is BAD. I don't know what else to say about this. It's just plain awful. Replacing an actually well-made book series that has been popularized and has been a good book from a child's perspective and replacing it with Minecraft and farting jokes is just a bad idea. Yet, they still make these, as if it's a GOOD idea. Like, seriously, please stop with these.

Binny for Short

Binny for Short

By Hilary McKay

I got to keep this book from my public library. I just sat on my bed reading, and got REALLY into it. It is AMAZING! I can relate to Binny in so many ways-from Max to her little brother to Gareth. (I swear I didn't spoil anything) I also CANNOT BELIEVE no one has added a review yet! PEOPLE NEED TO READ THIS BOOK!
