Prodigy (Legend)
By Marie Lu
The realistic, thrilling story of two star-crossed lovers living amidst war. After reading the masterpiece that was Legend, I was afraid to get my hopes up for its sequel—but I worried for nothing. Prodigy is just as, if not better, than its predecessor, injected with just the right balance of action, romance, and most importantly, emotion. This time, the novel follows June and Day while they are on the run from the Republic government. It's with desperation and exhaustion that they finally decide to become part of the Patriots, a group working to assassinate the new Elector—Anden—in order to replace him with Razor, the Patriot leader. The plan is for June to pretend to betray the Patriots and go back to the Elector Anden, who expressed infatuation with her when they met in the first book; while she distracts him with a fake plan, the real assassination will take place in a few days. Day, on the other hand, is placed as a Runner who roams the streets. Yet nothing comes freely. However much June and Day have sacrificed for each other, uncertainties threaten to break their relationship, ranging from June and Anden's blossoming relationship to the fact that June indirectly caused the murder of Day's mother. The mounting suspense and danger in this novel are unbearable and chilling in the best possible way! An absolute must-read for any fan of dystopian, romance, or action.
The Clique
By Lisi Harrison
This book is the first book in "The Clique" series. The story is about 4 popular girls named Massie, Kristen, Dylan, and Alicia, and one unpopular girl named Claire. The 4 popular girls were friends at first, but everything changes after Claire Lyons comes from Florida to live with Massie. Massie is super rich, and her house is huge, so her dad, who is friends with Claire's dad, invited the Lyons to live with them until the Lyons' house is finished building. Obviously, Massie doesn't like the idea of having the Lyons live with her family, so she starts bullying Claire with her other 3 girls. So in this book, there are lots of conflicts, mainly between Massie and Claire. However, one day Claire decided to get revenge and sneaked into Massie's room... I would recommend this book to people who like reading about school life and friendship, because in this book, you can learn a lot about complicated friendship and school life.
Charmed and Dangerous
By Lisi Harrison
I am loving this book so far!I read all the others before I read this one, so it is sort of weird reading about Massie being the beta instead of the alpha.(if you read this series, you will know what I mean).I didn't know when I started that you should read them in order, so It was sort of all over the place.But you HAVE to read this because this is one of the best series I have ever read and i am so sad it ended.Lisi Harrison is a great and talented author!Recommended for any girls who like designer things and girly stuff...:P
The Siren
By Kiera Cass
The Siren is a sweet and charming book by bestselling author Kiera Cass! The main character is a Siren named Kahlen. Being a Siren means serving the Ocean and having a voice that is deadly to human ears. But all that changes when Kahlen meets Akinli. Akinli is kind, caring, funny...and, unfortunately, human. Kahlen feigns muteness around him, but it is difficult for her to have to pretend. This is a whimsical story that conveys the message of following your heart despite your circumstances. The premise was quite similar to Cass's The Selection series, but enjoyable nevertheless. I would recommend this to anyone looking for a fantasy-romance read!

Dory Fantasmagory
By Abby Hanlon
I love Dory books. This one is my favorite , so far. I's super funny. It's about Dory trying to make a "real friend " at school. not a monster. Mary is still in it, and so is Mr.Nuggy. And of course, Mrs. Gobble Gracker.
The Thief of Always: A Fable
By Clive Barker
In this book, Harvey and Wendall are two kids who are really bored, and are taken to a house during holiday. They discover that the house has magic. They try to escape the house, but discover that everything in the house are illusions, including the people. Every day in the house was a year. Another character, Mr. Hood, is trying to persuade Harvey to become his Apprentice by giving him what he desires, but Harvey refuses. The book is interesting, it can be scary with lots of weird creatures. But, this may be a good experience for readers to inspire them to read fantasy titles. Fantasy books are special. *Warning* there is some language in this book...but it is still a good book.
The Mystery at Walt Disney World (Real Kids, Real Places)
By Carole Marsh
This is a kids book review of "The Mystery at Disney World, by Carole Marsh": Pros: It is a good book, showing some of the cool things at Disney World. It is an intriguing mystery for younger kids. Cons: It is a bit outdated (Extra TERRORestrial Alien Encounter, part of the map, George W. Bush, Etc.) Parts of it don't make sense, or are unrealistic (Grant and Christina have heard the story of W. Disney "hundreds of times" yet they have a ton of questions about it, the whole kidnapping "gig", etc.) Conclusion: It is a rather good book for kids 7 to 10, and I would recommend it for kids of that age who will be going to Walt Disney World for the first time.
Riley Mae and the Sole Fire Safari (Faithgirlz / The Good News Shoes)
By Jill Osborne
Pre-teen shoe model Riley Mae laces up her flaming orange Sole Fire running shoes for another ad campaign―this time in Kenya, Africa! Kenya is the perfect place for runners to train, with its high elevation and encouragement from Olympic athletes. It’s also a great hiding place for Riley and her Swiftriver friends from so-called enemies back in the United States … but for how long?
