The Kneebone Boy

The Kneebone Boy

By Ellen Potter

Warning! This review contains spoilers. The Hardscrabbles live with their dad in a small town, where everyone avoids them besides annoying old lady. Otto is 13, and he doesn't talk; instead he uses strange hand motions. Max is 10 and is constantly sitting on the roof. Lucia is either 12 or 11 (they don't say her age) and she's constantly flaring her nostrils; it's not exactly weird, but it is annoying. When their dad goes on a business trip, they are sent to stay with their aunt, who lives in London. But it turns out that their aunt is on vacation, so they do what any sensible children would do: aimlessly journey through the streets of London. What I thought of the book: My favorite character was by-far Otto. Partly because Lucia was extremely pride full, which was annoying. And Max thought he knew everything , which was also annoying. The identity of the narrator was supposed to be a secret, but it was Lucia. I wish they hadn't made it so obvious. I kind of wish that Otto would have been the narrator because he was the weirdest. I'm glad that the author wrote it as though he actually was talking because if she hadn't, that would have been very confusing. Although the description says it's dark, it really isn't that dark. I think that there were a few curse words, though. Overall it was a very good book.

Till Death Do Us Bark (43 Old Cemetery Road)

By Kate Klise

This was my favorite book in this series. Not only do I love it because it is about a dog, but also because it really made me try to figure out the mystery. There were a lot of hints throughout the book, and so I was trying to find the answer the whole time.
