Never Mind!: A Twin Novel (Twin Novels)

Never Mind!: A Twin Novel (Twin Novels)

By Avi, Rachel Vail

Did you know that about 80% of Americans have siblings? My books is Never Mind by Rachel Vail and award winning Avi. This book takes place in modern times and at Edward And Meg's house. The protagonists are Meg and Edward they are the protagonists because they are the main characters and the story is in their point of view. They are also the antagonist because they cause each other trouble Edward tries to gross out and do whatever he can to get rid of some of Meg’s friends that way he is popular. Meg tell Edward that he is nothing like her but they are twins and Meg Leg is way smarter. Meg Leg and Edward always fight over the phone because they want to talk to their friends. Edward also tries to gross out Meg’s friends and meg gets mad at him and screams really angrily. Things get better for them when Edward goes to a new school and meg gets into the High Achievers Club and then Edward gets more friends and then he becomes more popular as you could say. Does Edward ever get Meg out of the High Achievers Club. I would recommend this to any age over 11 because there is some bad language.

Small Persons with Wings

Small Persons with Wings

By Ellen Booraem

I decided to read this book for 2& reasons. #1 is that it had a HILARIOUS title (or at least I thought so.) Anywayays reason #2 is that the glittery cover caught my eye because I personally LOVE glittery things. Here are 3 solid reasons why you should read this book. #1 is that it isn't a soppy love story I mean it does have some really ackward parts. But doesn't every book have those? Reason #2 is that this book keeps it interesting it have great cliffhangers and it has a new twist around every chapter! My #3 reason is that it's a totally original book. It doesn't go along with your normal storyline,villain,or as you can see on the cover, small persons with wings!

By Janni Lee Simner

Disappointed this book is so obscure, it's actually pretty good. Maybe if the cover art were a little less bland...

Amalee

Amalee

By Dar Williams

Amalee's dad has a group of eccentric friends. When he gets sick, all of his friends help take care of Amalee What I thought of it: Amalee was kind of annoying. When she thought none of the girls liked her, she pretty much decided to stop trying to make friends. I think that was just plain stupid. Why not try to make friends with some of the guys? The writing was kind of sloppy. The author seemed like an amateur. And apparently, she's not that good at math either because Amalee is 10 or 11 (I don't remember), her dad is apparently 42 (they said in the beginning of the book that everyone besides Amalee is 42), but yet it is also stated that her dad was in his 20's when she was born. It doesn't make any sense. And even though they said that everyone besides Amalee was 42, it's stated that one of her dad's friends just turned 40. Also, all of her dad's friends (besides 1) are women. I'm not saying that there's anything wrong with that, but it isn't very realistic. I had high hopes for this book, but it was a real disappointment. Overall, it wasn't that good.
