I am a BIG fan of the Harry Potter series! It’s about this boy named Harry who lives with his mean aunt, uncle, and cousin. Then, on his birthday, he learns the truth about what really happened to his parents, and found out he was (and still is) a wizard! He gets to go to Hogwarts, a school for witchcraft and magic! On his first day, he picks Gryffindor, the brave, which is one of the four houses. He makes friends with Ron and Hermione, who are also in his house. He also learns about You-Know-Who, aka. Voldemort (who, by the way, has no nose 😂), and is determined to find out the secret behind the evil antagonist/villain. I would recommend this book, and the whole series to people who like fantasy and adventure! I’ve read all the books so far, and I’ll give it a five star! 🤩

It is the summer holidays and soon Harry Potter will be starting his fourth year at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Harry is counting down the days; there are new spells to be learnt, more Quidditch to be played and the Hogwarts castle to continue exploring. But Harry needs to be careful – there are unexpected dangers lurking… I absolutely love the Harry Potter books and out of the seven I'd probably say that The Goblet of Fire is my favourite, and this is mostly down to the creatures and other wizarding students we meet in the novel. As a lover of Hogwarts it's interesting to know what other wizarding schools are like in the world of Harry Potter, and to explore further the seemingly endless list of creatures. I can never find a boring or uninteresting moment in The Goblet of Fire and I never get sick of reading it again and again as it's so easy to lose myself in Harry Potter with the astounding events and distinctive characters. I really like how Hermione Granger strives through in this book as not just a clever girl, but as a girl with passion and determination. I like her complex personality; normally she is typecasted into just being 'intelligent', but Hermione is shown with a more girly and emotive side in this book, giving her more depth than just being Harry's clever friend. She is well-rounded and is more accessible as a regular person (though a witch) with feelings and a personality. In this book we regularly come across Cedric Diggory, a Hufflepuff, who allows us to see the Hufflepuff house in more depth rather than just briefly touching upon it as it has been in other books. I like how we can see the fairness Cedric strives to uphold throughout this book, showing us the value of Hufflepuffs. Anyone who hasn't read up to The Goblet of Fire should definitely re-think that decision as this is the book where it all changes and it's then impossible to not continue reading the rest of the books. The Goblet of Fire definitely deserves a 5/5 in my opinion.

Can a female teenager survive the school year. Read the book to find out. I hope you will enjoy this book the way I did. HAPPY READING!

I won this book through A DOGO book giveaway, and I absolutely loved it! I finished the entire book in one day because it was really captivating! There were so many facts about money I didn't know, and I got to earn all kinds of cool things like mining for cryptocurrency and new money robots that are being built! You even get to learn about how space will use money in the future and how back in the olden days, there were 1,000 dollar U.S. bills! I recommend this book to anyone willing to learn about their money, because not only does this book teach you what you need to know, but it also captures your attention and makes you wonder more about our economic system, as well as the rest of the world!

I decided to read the book because I like the other books in the series. This is the first one from George's point of view. I would recommend that you read them in order. Very good.

Wonder was a book I first read 2 years ago, and over the years, I just couldn't stop re-reading it. The kids at my school call this book "childish", "horrible," and "weird just like the kid in the book." I think just the opposite. August is a normal kid on the inside, but not on the outside. His face has a 'deformity', which is pretty much one of the best words I could think of to describe it. Wherever he goes, people get frightened of him, scream, and run away. August always wanted a normal life and a normal face. August has always been homeschooled, but now he has to face a new challenge - actually going to school, surrounded by his peers. He was shown around by three of the 'nicest kids in school,' Jack, Julian, and Charlotte. August later finds out that Julian is not very nice at all. Once he starts going to school, August becomes best friends with Jack and people quickly start getting used to his face after weeks and months go by. He also becomes friends with Summer, and they make their lunch table, a "Summer-Only Table." At Halloween, August goes to school in a Bleeding Scream costume, when everyone thought he was going in a Boba Fett costume. August overhears Jack talking to Julian about their friendship. Jack said some very uncaring remarks about August, which he didn't really mean. But August got hurt and decided to not to be friends with Jack anymore. He was so hurt that he wanted to quit school, but his sister Via, convinces him not to. His sister Via was the one who had stuck up for him through thick and thin. Jack is very confused to why August doesn't talk to him anymore (since he didn't know it was August in the Bleeding Scream costume.) He asks Summer (who August had confided in) and Summer says, "Bleeding Scream," but Jack doesn't understand. Later, when Jack and August are paired for a science project. Jack pieces together the whole thing and realized that August was the person in the Bleeding Scream costume. Then, when Jack is talking with Julian and Julian calls August a freak, Jack punches Julian, defending his friend. Julian's mom takes it out on August instead, saying that August shouldn't even be in Beecher Prep. Meanwhile, August learns that Jack stood up for him and they become friends again. There are many characters, and each character takes a turn telling the story, so there are many chapters about the characters, side-stories, kind of. In these chapters, August and Via's dog, Daisy, dies. It is very sad and whenever I read it, I keep crying because of their sadness. Via also stars in a play and makes up with her friend Miranda, who she had separated from earlier in the book. Near the end of the book, the whole fifth grade (the grade that August is in) takes a trip to a nature reserve park. While August and Jack are in the woods, some seventh graders insult August, calling him "Gollum" and "Freddy Krueger", which was similar to the insults my friends said about August. Miles, Amos, and Henry, who were formerly friends with Julian, stood up for him. This reminds me when my friends and I all stood up against a bully, who was a common enemy. In the end of the book, we learn that Julian will not be returning to Beecher Prep in the fall. Also, as the school year finishes, there is an award ceremony. In the award ceremony, the principal gives a speech on how someone in this room accomplished great things, and overcame a lot of things. The last award in the book was given to August because he overcame everything, even with so many obstacles thrown in his way. I also want to give a special mention to the quotes in the back of the book, and one (said by August) especially moved me. "Everyone should get a standing ovation at least once in their life, because we all overcometh the world." It was beautiful. To conclude, this book moved me to tears. It was heartwarming, it was beautiful, it taught a wonderful lesson, got me emotional, was hilarious at some parts and was very touching. "This book is a wonder." - Myself.

This heartwarming children's novel tells the story of Ivan, a silverback gorilla who has spent 27 years in captivity at a mall, living a life confined to a cage. Ivan is an introspective and artistic gorilla, spending his days painting and watching the world around him with a sense of detachment and quiet acceptance. Ivan shares his space with other animals, including Stella, an elderly elephant, and Bob, a stray dog who often sneaks in to keep him company. Despite his confined existence, Ivan harbors a deep-seated optimism and a longing for something more. His perspective shifts dramatically when Ruby, a young and inquisitive elephant, joins the mall. Ruby's presence reignites a sense of purpose in Ivan, compelling him to take action to secure a better future for her. This novel is celebrated for its profound themes of friendship, hope, and the quest for freedom. It has received widespread acclaim, including the prestigious Newbery Medal for its contribution to children's literature. Overall, I loved reading this book. You should read it too!

The Land of Stories is one of the best books I have read so far, and that's saying a lot, because I read all the time. :D Anyways, it's about two twins- Alex and Conner- who are different in many ways. Alex is the smart kid and Conner is the lazy kid. They travel through a book into a realm called 'the Land of Stories', which is the FAIRYTALE world! They meet many new friends and discover shocking secrets. This is the real-deal book- great plot, realistic characters, and the thing I like most are all the COINCIDENCES and how you actually get to know what happens to the fairytale characters after the story! Reading this, I just found out so many things that I've be longing to know about fairytales! It explains everything- why the villians did what, and this book is only telling about a small, small section of fairytales! Don't forget though- it's a GREAT book that you MUST read or you will seriously miss out! I mean, why isn't this more popular? It totally crushes the Hunger Games in terms of awesomeness! Anyways, Chris Colfer is a great author. I've already read all the 5 books, so instead of rating each one I'll just say that YOU REALLY SHOULD READ ALL 5 BOOKS!!! Everything makes perfect sense! There are explanations for every, single, action that every single fairytale character has ever done! All wrote into 5 great books that have great action, drama, and twists! (I'm still waiting for the 6th book.) And YES, the series gets better and better after every book! :D

I loved it I read all the books so good I have all of them they are so so good and that is it thank you
