This book is about three dudes going to jazz camp to get better at their instruments and I did not really enjoy reading it but some people might. The style of writing did not appeal to me that much. The start was really good but after that the story was not that interesting . But if you love music than this might be a good book because these three boys want to turn into stars and for that they need each others backs

Georgia Khatchadorian is starting sixth grade. Which means a new grade and a new school. But that’s not all that Georgia needs to worry about. Just because her last name is Khatchadorian and her brother is Rafe doesn’t mean that she is like him. But it does to all the kids and teachers of Hill Village Middle School, who don’t say a word to Georgia. Now it’s Georgia’s turn to fix all the mistakes that Rafe did, and prove that not all Khatchadorians are troublemakers like Rafe. A middle school story set in a diary format, Middle School: My Brother Is A Big, Fat Liar is about a girl trying to clear her name of all the crimes her brother committed. Will Georgia make friends, will her band play at the school dance, or will Georgia do things that will make her look more like her brother? Great for readers of Diary Of A Wimpy Kid, this story will catch readers off guard with the shocking secret that is revealed. What I thought about it: Middle School: My Brother Is A Big, Fat Liar was a great book. James Patterson is a wonderful author; I love all of his middle school books. I read the first two books in March, which I bought at the bookfair at my school. I love the front cover of this book-it’s just so colorful! The illustrations were great on the interior, and the plot was wonderful. I really enjoy the relationship between Georgia and Rafe; sometimes the hate each other, and sometimes they are helping each other with something. I also was astounded when the secret was revealed. It brought a surprising realistic twist that you never expected. This series is truly fun to read. They are great for fans of Diary Of A Wimpy Kid, Big Nate, Dork Diaries, etc. It was also nice having a different POV. Rafe is awesome and all-but sometimes it’s good to have a change, even though I enjoyed the first two books better. Overall, great read.

really heartwarming book. shows the struggles of people after one of their loved ones have died and how people cope with it. it was a little confusing to read because matthew is the narrator, but the story is about clay. also there is plenty of cursing, so don't read it out loud!

i love these books because they are funny! amy and her friends will make it super far! i also like kim wayans and her brothers! they are funny

I do not recommend this book I did not like it. It's about Mortimer going to camp. He is really excited to go to camp until he reads in the info the camp sent him that no pets of any kind are allowed. But he sneaks Plantzilla in.

Oh my goodness! I loved this book a lot! As I got more into the book I started to get frustrated with Mr. Grumply because Olive was trying her very best to be be nice to him and help him out, but Mr. Grumply continued to think it was Seymour and said he did not believe in ghosts. But when he finally believed, I felt happier. I also thought it was not fair that they thought Mr. Grumply was losing his mind because Olive was real alright, so I just wish they would believe! I thought the end was the best part, because Mr. Grumply really changed and it made me feel good. But it was very sad how he was losing Olive as a friend. But in the end when Olive said she was going to leave, I was like "SERIOUSLY! No! Olive can't leave, that would be terrible!" But I am glad she stayed and they became a happy family. So overall I LOVED this book, and definitely recommend this to a reader who wants a feel good story.

This was a really great addition to the 43 Old Cemetery Road series. It is the fourth book in the series and personally one of my favorites. Something mysterious is happening in Ghastly. The age of letters is coming to an end and the post office in shutting down. There is something in mailbox 5 writing letters to The Spence Mansion and calling itself and phantom. But the end may lead to a shocking secret, and envy. Also, the boy makes and new friend. This book is mysterious and exciting at the same way. Told in transcripts, newspaper clippings, letters, and pictures, it will leave you one the edge of your seat the whole time.

If you read the first book you know that Calpurnia is the only girl of seven children. And that she wants to be a scientist. If you haven't read the book I just told you the main parts :) In this book Callie discovers that some people think that just because she is a girl she can't be what she wants to be. Can Callie convince her family that girls can do great things to? I liked this book better than the first one.

What would you do if you lost the only family member you had? What would you do if you found out your mother didn't want you? You’ll have to read T hree Pennies By:Melanie Crowde r to find out more. Marin is a foster child that has gone from home to home, the couple of things she takes with her from home to home are her Three pennies, Her small copy of the I Ching and her piggy bank with a single dime inside. She's been trying to find her mother her whole life, she has one last chance before she loses her forever. One of the only memories of her mother is laying the grass on her blanket and her mother's head blocking the sun for hitting her head. Marin travels from foster home to foster home before possibly finding her forever home. This book will put you on the edge of your seat! Poor Marin was put into the foster system when she was just four because her mother abandoned her. Her mother is the antagonist in this story. How would you feel if your parent abandoned you when you were just four and still hasn't made an effort to see you in seven years. I’d recommend this book to 6-8 graders, it's a very sensitive topic and kids that are younger might not understand the things marin goes through like, Bouncing from foster home to foster home and not having a mother.
