The Name of the Star (The Shades of London)

The Name of the Star (The Shades of London)

By Maureen Johnson

Honestly, this book was great, but it violent and slightly disturbing. It got weird at the part where the person fixed the video feed and replayed the history. It showed the victim getting chased by an invisible person and being slashed to death by a ghost. Alright, now to the plot: Rory arrived at a boarding school in England the same day that the Jack the Ripper reenactments started. Rory almost chokes to death and then she can see ghosts. The new serial killer turns out to be a ghost. She sees him one night before he murders someone and then she becomes his next target. A ghost kills him with a weapon that destroys them both right before he kills her. The end :/

It's a story about four kids, a father, and a house keeper named Cuffy. They come up with an idea where they can all put their allowences together and do anything they want to do alone. Rush comes home with a dog,that they call I.S.A.A.C. after their idea - Independent Saturday Afternoon Adventure Club. Randy meets a lady who got kidnapped by Fortune tellers. Mona comes home with bright red nails and a haircut. Oliver though, only 6, was thought to be so young, and small. The family wasn't sure if he could go all alone. But Oliver himself had other plans, going to the circus and taking a ride on a horse and carriage. This was an excellent book and I hope you read it. I also hope you enjoy it as much as I did.

A life jacket is thrown onto Robie, and she is thrown out of the plane into the ocean where there is a raft waiting for her. Out of the three people on the plane, two survive: Robie and the co-piloit Max.

You will be hooked from the beginning to the end, and it has a lot of unexpected twists. I recommend this book to boys and girls ages 11+.

Lyddie (New Windmills)

Lyddie (New Windmills)

By Katherine Paterson

I really liked this book! My mom had read it when she was in college and she said that I might like it. And I did. It was really good. It was one of the best books that I have ever read. I think that it is sad that she has to go away from her farm. My favorite character was Lyddie. She struggled on even when times were hard. it is also sad that her brother changed so much and she barely ever saw him.

In the After

In the After

By Demitria Lunetta

This was a post apocalyptic story. It follows the tale of a what seems to be an alien invasion but after the main character reaches a safe place, she finds out the truth. I think it was really cool when Amy found Baby and Baby already had good instincts and how she learned to communicate using signs. I liked the book quite a lot, I think that the book was pretty interesting and fun. I think that it follows the journey of Amy quite well, I didn't like some parts where there was fighting and everything was confusing because I think that the author didn't explain it well.
