Sparrow

Sparrow

By Sarah Moon

SPOILER ALERT This book is really sweet and it's about how everyone thinks that sparrow is trying to kill herself and this book tells us about mother daughter relationships and love no matter what, that even if people think you did something that you didn't do is not an option because otherwise people will be very convinced that you did.

Absolutely Truly (A Pumpkin Falls Mystery)

Absolutely Truly (A Pumpkin Falls Mystery)

By Heather Vogel Frederick

From the author of the Mother and Daughter Book Club, Absolutely Truly is ABSOLUTELY amazing. They find a first edition copy of Charlotte's Web, and thought it would pay the loan until it went missing. Her Aunt Truly (they call her True) is the co-owner of Lovejoy's Books. Truly Lovejoy and her 4 siblings and parents move to Pumpkin Falls from Texas. They move because they are offered to run the Lovejoy's Bookstore, so their father accepts because he is looking for a job. They move out of their big house, leave their jobs, and head for Pumpkin Falls. Texas was where their relatives lived, and nobody but their aunt was in Pumpkin Falls, so everything was a bit complicating at first. But it was great after, and Truly made true friends. I think this book is worth a 5/5 rating because it really is entertaining and I never actually expected this book to be that good.

(Of course, the exceptions is ghosts. If someone dies too quickly, no Cloud comes for them.) As you catch the most important (and biased) details (to Gracie) through a diary (Gracie's), get ready to travel to the edge of the world!

A Curious Tale of the In-Between

This book is a tale of life's biggest trial; death. Pram Bellamy sees ghosts, can hear ghosts, and can talk to them. It started when she was very young, she would see the ghosts of insects. Then she met a ghost boy named Felix. Felix was her friend almost her whole life. Her aunts just thought he was an imaginary friend. She lived with her aunts because her mother died during labor. Pram never met her father or her mother. Pram died the day of her birth, but the doctors brought her back to life. Being in between life and death gave her the ability to see ghosts. One day, after being homeschooled all her life, she must go to school. At school, she meets Clarence Blue, and quickly befriends him. His mother died when he was young too. He is trying to find the ghost of his mother, which leads them to the spiritualist, Lady Savant. After that, thing start becoming strange. What will happen next? You'll have to read the book to find out.

Ghost Boy

Ghost Boy

By Iain Lawrence

This book was amazing, but really sad in the end. I ended up paralyzed on my bed for a while after I finished, because this book gives a lot of material to think about. Ghost Boy is a book about a teen named Harold. He is an albino. His brother and dad died in a war, (but he denies that his brother is dead, it is too sad for him to admit.) and his mother has become cruel. He embarks on a journey to join the circus. Several qualities rise in the people around him. Living life and accepting it, true friendship, and finding who you are are three great things that this book teaches. I can relate to Harold. There are two groups in the circus-freaks and everyone else. Harold fits into both, but can only be sorted into one. This is a must read for older kids.
