    snicker9's book review was featured in Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard Book 1 The Sword of Summer.
    Mangus Chase: The Sword of Summer was as equally entertaining and well-spun as Riordan's other series. He puts a modern twist on Asgardian gods, adding to the collection of his Greek, Roman, and Egyptian series. This time though, Riordan took a fresh new spin. For one, the POV was a mix of first person and second person, which really drew me into the story. Another thing that was really awesome was that within the first few chapters Magnus Chase, the main character, dies! And yet his story continues in an amazing way, as he realizes he needs to go on a quest to avoid Ragnarok (which is the end of the Asgardian worlds). But it was such a unique way to tell Magnus's story, and I love how Riordan gives us a new perspective on the regular structure of an adventure story. I recommend this book to middle grade and young adult age groups, especially those who enjoy adventure stories in the modern world, and to those who enjoy Riordan's other books. I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars.

    snicker9's book review was featured in The Penderwicks: A Summer Tale of Four Sisters, Two Rabbits, and a Very Interesting Boy.
    The Penderwicks was a very interesting book. It is not the type of book I usually read, but I still loved it. Usually I read books about adventure, mystery, magic, etc. This story was more classical, and set in earlier times. The Penderwicks was about a family of four girls who go on vacation for three weeks and meet a boy who needs help. He is about to be sent off to military school, and his mother is going to be married to a horrid man. Nothing is going his way, and the Penderwicks decide to help. There aren't really breath-taking scenes, and it is not an action-packed book. However I recommend this book, especially those who love classics such as Little Women and the Secret Garden. I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars.

    Anybody else excited for the summer reading prizes to be sent out? I can't wait since I have nothing to read, I finished my whole book shelf and since we moved we put my other books in our extra closet, and it takes a long time to get the books out and we just switched my books a few weeks ago. I can't wait :D

    1. I love to swim, and also sometimes I love looking for shells at the beach, one time me and my cousins got a bunch of shells we found. 2. I just moved to the south so its like 80-90 degrees. It use to be 65-80 degrees in the north where I lived. 3. we use to visit my grandma's house every year but its a long way. we have to take a plane there and ever since we moved we sorta got busy and never got the time. We may go next yr tho. For now I'm doing cheerleading tumbling and I talk to my friends on facetime.

    swirlycool's book review was featured in The Ultimate Book of Sharks.
    The Ultimate Book of Sharks is filled with amazing facts and pictures! Every page you see in this book is guaranteed with a new fact, a new picture, and color. I was not interested in sharks that much, but when I read this book I was amazed by the pictures of these beautiful sharks. I also was very interested in the facts, and this is actually the first time I've picked up a shark book in 3 years. This National Geographic book is one of the best I've probably read so far. I rate it 5/5 and recommend it to ages 7-16.
