Breaking Stalin's Nose

Breaking Stalin's Nose

By Eugene Yelchin

I thought Eugene s Breaking Stalin's nose was really well written. I only gave it 4 stars because the ending leaves you hanging. Warning watch out for Stukachov. Hes bad news. This historical fiction book is good enough to read again and again but I would skip the ending.Also there are lots of surprises. And there's some for shadowing to look for.Also Sasha has some trouble unavailing really serious stuff. Thats all im going to say.I highly recommend this book. Its really interesting and it teaches you about the Soviet Union. I just wanna say one more thing. Eugene is a genius!And you should try this book.It is so good it deserves the William Allen White award. I would read it instead of eating vegetables And not just because I hate vegetables. Its a really good book. I really really liked it. Im pretty sure you will to...

Flowers in the Attic

Flowers in the Attic

By Virginia Andrews

this is a very gripping tale...literally!...u just can't put the book down.....it is actually meant for a very mature audience as it is recommended for ages 14+...the cover seems rather childish but the book itself is pretty dark. Some of the dialogues are very touching as forbidden love is mentioned and portrayed.....

My Life with the Liars

My Life with the Liars

By Caela Carter

Jaydah

In my life with Liars, the compound manipulates her mind so she thinks everything outside of the compound is evil or “darkness”.This story leaves you in wonder and is very emotional.And all I want to know is, what will happen next? Some things I really enjoyed was how they kept the book interesting and how they made it have many different emotions.I wonder why they make the beginning so boring. And, that’s my opinion.

Geek Girl

Geek Girl

By Holly Smale

Geek Girl is the perfect book if you want drama! This book is a realistic fiction book narrated by a girl named Harriet Manners. It's perfect for drama because i mean a geek to an international super model? That's just way out of the league! If you love geek to super model, you're gonna love this book.

Dear Mr. Henshaw

Dear Mr. Henshaw

By Beverly Cleary

This is about a boy who is writing to his favorite author, and all throughout the book he is writing letters. At one point his teacher makes them write reports to their favorite authors and he writes the Mr. Henshaw but Mr. Henshaw writes questions and Leigh does not like that but his mom won't fix the TV and is making him write back the answers to the questions. This book makes absolutely no sense after the first few letters but it is still a good book. This I got from halfway into the book(that's how far I am in it), and I will review it more when I am done with it all. This is going to be a really quick read, I can tell.

Emily of New Moon

Emily of New Moon

By L. M. (Lucy Maud) Montgomery

I am in the process of reading L. M. Montgomery's Emily of New Moon. Emily's sweet father just died, leaving her to the mercy of her mother's family, the Murrays. Emily, shocked and heartbroken, wants nothing but to be with her father again. But instead she is taken into Aunt Laura (the sweet one) and Aunt Elizabeth's (The stern, no-nonsense, plain, sensible one) home on New Moon. Emily slowly warms up to her new environment, and discovers the pain and joy in having friends. I love this book because Montgomery is such a beautiful writer, the very one who wrote Anne of Green Gables. Her writing flows like a river! I hope you liked this book as much as I do.

Moon Over Manifest

Moon Over Manifest

By Clare Vanderpool

Moon Over Manifest is a tale of community, understanding, and family, with a little bit of mystery mixed in. Strange people and events become less strange as this well-crafted puzzle comes together by the end of the novel. At the beginning of the book, Abilene's dad sends her away for the summer to live with an old friend in Manifest, a town he lived in for some of his childhood. Abilene does not have high hopes for the summer. She is unsure of why her father sent her and feels all alone. When Abilene discovers a hidden box of old letters and mementos, Abilene finds new purpose. She attempts to solve a small town mystery with a couple of new friends. As she begins to uncover pieces of the puzzle, she finds herself digging deeper and deeper into the history of the town of Manifest. Questions arise about about her own family history, and curiosity about her father leads Abilene to continue her search for truth and understanding. This is a great book for middle-grade readers. I enjoyed the complex characters and the idea that people, places, and stories are not always as they seem.
