The Last Song

The Last Song

By Nicholas Sparks

The last song is a story about a girl named Ronnie miller that is angry and frustrated with parents especially her dad. She stayed that way for 3 years until she decides to visit him over summer break at north carolina. Ronnie met a boy at the beach he was a volleyball player, he accidently bumped into her and quickly became really good friends. Ronnie finds herself falling for the boy and they started dating. Ronnie is also a very good singer and pianist, but her dad is the one who taught her the piano so after her parents divorced she stopped playing music because it reminded her of her dad. Ronnie is very disappointed in her dad because he did something at the church and people got really mad about it. The ending was very sad because her dad ended up dieing to Ronnie playing the piano and singing to him as he looks at the sky. I think Ronnie understands that her dad was sick but still wanted Ronnie to come to his house at North carolina. This story was really sad and i think i would be a good book for people that likes emotional stories.

The Eleventh Plague

The Eleventh Plague

By Jeff Hirsch

Endy

This book overall really got me inspired to write my personal dystopian story of the rebelling of Androids in Detroit because of how well it described the world around the main character and all the challenges that lay ahead of him as well as the fight to become civilized in a world that won’t allow it. Stephen is just a 15 year old, but he did things that even the toughest man would shed blood and tears just to do them. He is the prime example of someone who was raised in -and accustomed to- hell who also went through the greatest possible pain of becoming less savage. Though the ending was not as nostalgic as I thought it would be with all the bulging sadness before it, I liked this book and I recommend it to you all, especially for those looking to find out how teens flirt during apocalypses.

Utomia: The Legend Beyond

Utomia: The Legend Beyond

By Caitlin Scholl, Neil Mullins

Laoch the Iguana has always been a scientist from the start. In his school, he is known as the troublemaker and the student who never pays attention, which gets his teacher mad all the time. Laoch is training to be a Master Grower in Talamh, but would rather leave to the city of Utomia as an inventor. One day, when a science experiment of Laoch's goes wrong, it sets his school up in mysterious purple flames, which no one has ever seen before. This sends multiple armed forces to Laoch's small town, while Laoch and his friends are off to Utomia to discover the reason of the purple flames. He also finds out about why Utomia has a heavily guarded shield around it. What is Utomia protecting? Will this adventure bring Laoch and his friends together, or will it separate them? Can they figure out how to save their families? To find out, read Utomia: The Legend Beyond. I loved how the main characters were lizards and how the aspects of the plot were interesting. I give this book a 5 out of 5 stars, and recommend it to anyone who loves a good adventure and a mystery.

Guitar Notes

Guitar Notes

By Mary Amato

When I saw Guitar Notes on the shelf in the library, I picked it up without a clue what it was about. I had no idea how much I would love it. Tripp Broody loves to play the guitar, but his mom took his guitar away. When he plays his guitar, he always feels happy and in his own magical place. So he uses the practice room on odd calendar days. Lyla Marks is the best cellist in the school, and has won multiple awards for her spectacular playing. She, however, isn't happy when she plays, but with the pressure of her dad, best friend Annie, and her reputation of being the best, continues to enter contests and play the cello. She uses the same practice room as Tripp on even calendar days. Soon, Tripp and Lyla start leaving notes for each other, and those notes grow into a big friendship between them. Both of their lives are changed forever because of the friendship that no one would have thought Lyla and Tripp could have. Guitar Notes is a great book. I really like how it shows how two very different people connect in such an amazing way. I would recommend this book to boys and girls ages 10+.
