The Parent Problem (The Mortifying Life of Skye Green)
By Anna Wilson
This book is all about love and how annoying it can be if your best friend falls in love with the boy next door!! Even worse Skye's mum has decided to take up BALLROOM DANCING can Skye's life get anymore mortifying???!!☺
The Other Boy
By M. G. Hennessey
The Other Boy is a heartfelt story about a transgender girl, Shane, who struggles to open up to her acquaintances about her 'secret'. This story talks about other things as well such as bullying. I like how the book includes little comic strips at the end of each chapter. I would definitely recommend this book to 11+. I also think this book should be read in middle schools to show kids how everyone is perfect the way they are and to show that there are always different prospectives.
Duke (Dogs of World War II)
By Kirby Larson
i just finished Duke and some parts get really emotional and made me cry and some parts made me jump up at my desk and and some times i made a little noise. I really loved this book,it really touched me because a few months ago my dog passed away and this showed me that there is worse things in life. Kirby Larson is a very good historical fiction writer and is very descriptive and makes me want to keep reading,but I have to go to bed instead of staying up and reading until 11:00 and I get in trouble. I really love this book and I hope you read it.
Nightmares!

Whether your nightmares are clowns or the dark, Nightmares! Is a book you wanna read, it has a great plot with well thought out characters, it has also some humor injected into it, like when Dabney, a clown, told Charlie, the main character, to not kill anyone when he borrowed his car. It is also full of suspense which makes it a real page-turner, unlike the other books I have read. I have recently finished the book and cannot wait for the sequel coming out in the Fall of 2015. In conclusion the book has earned 2nd place of my all time favorite book list. Good job Jason and Kirsten!
The Single Shard

I never knew this book was about 12th Century in Korea, and I'm Korean. At first, I thought the story was from China, because they made celadon potteries too. I wanted to learn more specific facts about long time ago in Korea, not only about Se-jong King who made Korean. I love this book, but the only one I disliked was when the end was sad.
Charmed Life #1: Caitlin's Lucky Charm
By Lisa Schroeder
I think this book is an awesome book because it is the life of a 6th grade girl and how she realizes that when she is desperate to find friends in her new school it is important to be friends with people who accept you for who you are, like the 4 friends she had at camp, and how they accepted her for who she was , and didn't judge her for reading a poetry book she had.

Council of Mirrors (Sisters Grimm #9) (Sisters Grimm, The)
By Michael Buckley
Warning this review contains spoilers. Two years have passed since Sabrina and Daphne’s parents had been kidnaped and put under a sleeping spell. They have been rescued and awoken now, but their problems aren’t over yet. The Scarlet Hand has over run Ferryport Landing! Also Mirror took over Granny Relda’s body and is trying to break the barrier that traps all the ever-afters in the town, so the rest of the Grimms (besides Jake), puck, Mr. Canis, and Red seek shelter with Charming’s army. Then the Bunny Lancaster a.k.a The Wicked Queen shows up to help, she fixes the broken magic mirrors, and they revile a prophesy that only Sabrina and Daphne can defeat Mirror and The Scarlet Hand. Naturally Daphne is all for it, but like all always Sabrina has her doubts. Will the Army of ever-afters listen to a couple of Kids? How will they defeat The Scarlett Hand? Will puck ever take a bath? (Ok I think we all know the answer to the last one is, NO) Find out in The Council of Mirrors. What I thought of the book: Just when I thought Puck couldn't get any awesomer (yes that's a word) he surprised me. But like always, Sabrina never failed to annoy me. I also didn't like Basil (their little brother). He annoyed me even more than Sabrina, even though he barely said any thing. Although I used to think Veronica (their mom) was kind of cool, this book made her seem like an annoying cry-baby. I think that Daphne might have married Pinocchio. I can't believe Sabrina and Puck went like 5 years without seeing each other. They ended up getting married, so I'm not complaining, but I thought they would be at least friends their whole lives. It was a pretty good ending to the series, but over all, I liked the books before their parents were awake better.
The Inside Story (The Sisters Grimm, Book 8)
By Michael Buckley, Peter Ferguson
Michael Buckley is hilarious. I love how he take characters from a bunch of places (like Alice in wonderland and the Wizard of Oz) along with all the classic fairy-tales, throws in a dysfunctional family and a sausage loving dog, creating the best (and funniest) series anyone could possibly read.
