Real Mermaids Don't Hold Their Breath

Real Mermaids Don't Hold Their Breath

By Helene Boudreau

I read this book because I'm actually interested in the idea of mermaids. I think like how did these people get the idea of a Half fish half female. This book was amazing. It was very interesting. I thought it was fascinating. There was this girl with her first kiss with a not that was actually a merman I guess is why they call it. That part of the book kinda was weird cause it was a male. Then she thought her mom drowned in an ocean. She discovers her mom was actually a mermaid. Then she finds out she must have been half mermaid . She went swimming in oceans and acually was looking for her mom. Do you think she found her?

The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian

The Absolutely True Diary of a Part-Time Indian

By Sherman Alexie

This story is about an Indian teenager named Junior (also named) Arnold Spirit who met a lot of tragedies and obstacles. This book taught me an important lesson: “Life Is Not Perfect”. Some parts in the story were sad and some parts happened so sudden that I wished that I could make changes to it. Also, Junior in the story was really brave, braver than anyone I met before. If I was him, I would never go to that all-white school and I would never join the basketball team. Even if I transferred to the all-white school, I wouldn’t have the courage to meet my one and only friend Rowdy, and I wouldn’t have the guts to talk to my crush Penelope. His persistence determined me that everyone could cross the border and do the same thing that he did. This is a hilarious, sad and awe-inspiring story.

The Uncommoners #2: The Shadows of Doom

The Uncommoners #2: The Shadows of Doom

By Jennifer Bell

I read this book and the first one which is called The Crooked Sixpence. I really liked this book where a girl and her brother Seth continue their adventure in Lundinor with their Grandma this time. The only thing that I did not get was why the title is The Shadows of Doom because it doesn't have anything like that in the book. Maybe I just didn't notice it, but it does sound pretty scary.

Me and the Pumpkin Queen

Me and the Pumpkin Queen

By Marlane Kennedy

Mildred's mom died when she was a toddler. Her mom wanted to try to grow a giant pumpkin and enter it into the Giant Pumpkin Contest at the Pumpkin festival, but never got the chance to. So Mildred has been trying to grow one for years, but every year something bad happens and her pumpkin never makes it to the festival. Her aunt thinks that Mildred is unhealthily obsessed, and that she should stop, but Mildred refuses to. With the support of her dad and her best friend Jacob, this year Mildred hopes to win the prize. What I thought of it: Let's start with the cover. It looks like it was made for a toddler book. It really annoyed me. Not to mention the fact that on the cover, Mildred looked nothing liked she was described, even though they didn't say much about the way she looked. In the book, Mildred says she has bangs, but on the cover she doesn't seem to have bangs. Also, on the cover, Mildred looked like she was about 7 or 8 years old. I found Mildred pretty annoying overall. In the beginning of the book, she was 10, then after a little while she turned 11, and then at the very end of the book she turned 12. The entire book, she sounded as if she were 7. A few times, she said things that a 7-year-old wouldn't necessarily say, but she still sounded really young. I didn't like the way it was written. I found the way Mildred talked very annoying. It was even more annoying when she said something, but (based on the other things she said) it didn't sound like something she would say. Jacob was my favorite character. I thought he was pretty cool, and not at all annoying. I liked Mildred's dad as well. Despite all of it's flaws it was an all right book.
