Warning!! THIS REVIEW CONTAINS SPOILERS.!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! The jungle book is an amazing book! If you are an animal lover, love action, fighting, and suspense then the jungle book is for you. I loved how the author keeps you at the edge of your seat the whole book. In my opinion my favorite part about the jungle book is when Mowgli kills Shere Khan and proves him self. There are 5 different stories in the book itself. My favorite out of all is Rikki-Tikki- Tavi, it is about a mongoose who is trying to protect his family from combra and is amazing. All in all and awesome book!!! Highly suggest reading the Jungle Book.

This book redefines summer fling... definitely a summer read for any teen girl! I seriously hates liana by the end of the book....... read to find out who she is!

Omg I love pink

The Mother Daughter Book Club book 1. By Heather Vogel Fredrick. This is such an amazing book! The Mother Daughter Book Club focuses on the lives of Emma the book worm, Jess the smart one, Cassidy the sporty one, and Megan the fashion lover. They live in Concord, New England. Their lives are going great until their moms decide to create a mother daughter book club. To kick off the start of the book club, their moms pick Little Women. From bullies to stolen diaries and secret crushes, the girls can’t help but wonder what would Jo March do? This is definitely an amazing book for anyone that likes action, but it is not a world adventures kind of book. Most of the characters were highly likeable. You feel like you know the characters. I would highly recommend the whole series for anyone that is looking for a good book/ books! Anyone from age 9 and up could read this book. I would give this book a 10/10 because it’s fun to read, has multiple characters, is not like Percy Jackson where they have to go on life quests, and it’s a series of 7 books so it gives you something to read after you finish the first book.

It has been one year since The Mother Daughter Book Club began, and the four friends are meeting again! This time they're reading Anne of Green Gables. There is one problem: The mothers invited mean and sassy Becca Chadwick and her mom to join. No one is thrilled about this, but there is a much bigger problem: Jess's family might have to give up the Half Moon Farm! Everyone knows that Jess's family belongs there, and that it just wouldn't be right for them to leave. The girls strike up a plan to save The Half Moon Farm, but they whole Mother Daughter Book Club girls have to get along and work together, even with Becca. In Much Ado About Anne, the four girls learn more about working together, even with people the never thought get along with. As soon as I started reading it, I could not put it down. It was amazing. I recommend this book to girls ages 10+.

"In wartime, nothing is safe" In Berlin, 1932, Thirteen-year- old Gabriella Schramm lived a happy and privileged life. As Hitler rises to power, everything suddenly became quite unreal as though nothing could have any consequences. People who were once trustworthy are now Nazis. Gaby and her best friend Rosa seemed to realize the transformations of their lives and the agonies of their country during the rise of Hitler. To face the reality, Gaby turns to the comfort of her books, but suddenly those are in grave danger of disappearing as well. To Gaby, holding on to the one thing she loved the most was never so hard. "I could still see Berlin faintly, its buildings rising like a scratchy calligraphy, words in a sentence strung across a page. A page I couldn't quite read" Through a young women, Kathryn Lasky describes a personal and political history that will haunt readers. I would give this book a 101/100 if you ask me to rate it. Reading this book, I imagine myself as Gaby. I smelled the ashes she smelled and I felt my own eyes stinging as Gaby saw the sea of brown uniforms. I really enjoy this page-turning book because every word from this book affected me deeply. I recommend this book to all ages and genders because Gaby's gripping story will haunt everyone.

The best book it is AWSOME AWSOME if you like daIry of a wimp kid you'll love this it has a good ending its all so a series of 30books😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀😀

After the exciting, rather exhausting adventures of "Finding Serendipity", Tuesday McGillycuddy is more than happy to lead a "normal" life - that is, until her slightly overprotective father, Dennis, rushes in with shocking headlines: "SEVEN WRITERS GONE MISSING." A frantic Dennis warns his wife and daughter to stop doing the thing they love most: writing, as to avoid being the next victim - but he is not able to stop the imaginative Tuesday and her loyal Winged Dog, Baxterr, from getting whisked away by her friend, Vivienne Small, who desperately needs Tuesday's help. After a Winged Dog's death, Vivienne's world has been turned topsy-turvy - and she blames the mysterious "G", who writes in his note that, "I cannot keep the worlds apart much longer." Without his power, the two worlds of story and reality will collide - and only Tuesday can save both worlds.. But will Tuesday and Vivienne be able to solve a mystifying mystery and save the world (again) at the same time? Poor Tuesday.. First of all, I would like to say that this book was oh-so-terribly cheesy at times, but I suppose I warmed up to it after a while - in fact, I would say that this book's "cheesiness" is what made it really pop out for me. Most books in the fantasy genre have plenty of angst and gruesome battles, but never really focus on more subtle themes like friendship and family - and they should. When I finished "A Week Without Tuesday", the ending was bittersweet - it left me yearning for more adventures with curious Tuesday and spunky Vivienne, who I had grown rather fond of. This book was written in a "childish" manner, with parts that made me smile cheekily, but was also overly descriptive, fitting as much detail into a page as possible - it was wonderful. When I finished "A Week Without Tuesday," I sighed with contentment, flopped over in my bed, and immediately went to make some blueberry pancakes and started working on my abandoned stories again. My hat is off to authors Heather Rose and Danielle Wood (Angelica Banks...) for a lovely sequel :)

Gary Soto, the author of the Taking Slides, takes his reader to meet the boy, that go to new school, and face the challenge.The main character in Taking Slides is Lincoln talent guy: Ms. Mendoza, Tony the boy with jealous guy, Flaco dog that hyper. The setting of Taking Slide take place in San Francisco. When the story starts, the reader is in Mission District of San Francisco, an urban barrio, to Sycamore, pleasant suburban town with tree-lined streets. Taking sides is realistic because Taking sides can be real to the world like people who go to new school and facing new thing kind of school. “ The trash cans were buckled, but no candy wrappers or potato-chip bags scuttled across the campus… Lincoln opted to live. His bologna sandwich, along with an apple and some chips, sat in his backpack, crushed between his geography and math books”. Taking Side made me have confidence of myself because Lincoln is very talented people. Taking sides can help people to have confidential.

In Home for the Holidays by Heather Vogel Fredrick, the character who faces the most problems is Becca. In every Mother-Daughter book club book, there is always 1 girl out of the 4 girls who has a family problem. In the book, Becca is still feeling a little uncomfortable about being friends with Emma, Cassidy, and Jess. Megan is her friend, so she is fine with her. She is uncomfortable because she used to tease Emma and Jess a lot, and she always hated Cassidy. Even worse for her, her family is having money issues, because her dad lost his job. I think that the main thing in this book is about their friendship together, and how they kept it together. Along the way, Becca messes up a few times, like stealing one of Megan’s friends, and playing mean pranks out of selfishness. In this book, I would say is when Becca is having sort of a self-conflict, because she still feels a little guilty about used being mean to all of them. She seems to really want to become their friends, but sometimes, her old habits still get in the way. Christmas was coming up, and Becca did not want any of her friends to know that her family was broke, so was always in a really bad mood, and never explaining herself, causing the other girls to get mad at her, because it seems likes Becca is jealous of something, or mad. Meanwhile, Emma and Jess, friends who have never fought before are now fighting, right before Christmas. Jess is mad at Emma, because Emma keeps listening to what Jess’s cousin, Felicia is saying about her. All of the girls keep fighting because people around them are playing pranks on them, causing them to blame each other. The story switches around to multiple points of views, and I realized that they all just misunderstood each other when they got into fights. Like what we used in class, I think the author’s goal is to show a character’s motivation, but by using different points of views for the reader to find out what was happening. The goals the author showed were what made the story interesting, in my opinion. This review was also for my home log.
