The Journal of James Edmond Pease a Civil War Union Soldier (My Name is America)
By Jim Murphy
The book The Journal of James Edmond Pease is an interesting book about a distressed soldier. He is tasked by a war official to keep a journal of the war. It is filled with parts of his life in the war, a few letters romantically, and friendships in the camp. How people get promoted, and when they lose one battle only fate can decide our character's future. It is very suspenseful always having you on the edge of the seat, especially in the middle of surprise attacks. I enjoyed this book because of the adrenaline you get even if you aren't in the war. The way the author expresses the character's emotions and feelings is extremely awesome. It leaves off on a cliff hanger which I really like. There are some major unexpected reveals at the end of this magical book as well! I really suggest you read this book.
The Splendid Secrets of 66 Lilly Pilly Lane (The Faren Chronicles)
By Elena Paige
This is my new favorite book of all time!!
13 Treasures (13 Treasures Trilogy)
By Michelle Harrison
The book is a capturing story with many plot twists. It has adventure and feeling. I strongly recommend this book to anyone. It has lots of adventure, mystery, and hidden clues. It does not seem good at first but as the story goes on you cannot put it down. The story is about a girl named Tanya who can see fairies, evil fairies. As she spends some time in her grandmother's house, She goes on many adventures with Fabian( the boy next door). They dig deep into a mystery of how a girl went missing 50 years ago in the woods, Will Tanya be the next one to disappear?
City of Ashes (The Mortal Instruments)
By Cassandra Clare
After reading City Of Bones, I can't help but pick up this book and read it. I really like how the author made the realationships complicated so that conflict was happening in the book. Every chapter of the story is either exciting or heartwarming. The characters were well deleveloped during this book and everyone finally started to get along. The big change that happened in this story was shocking. I strongly recommend this book to readers who like angels and demons and all those vampire, wearwolf stuff. This series fits for both boys and girls since there is both romance and fightings in the story.
Night Night, Groot
By Brendan Deneen
This book is weird. It is a bedtime story. Also, it is a board book. I would recommend it for ages 1-3 but others can read it too!😀
Alcatraz #1: Alcatraz Versus the Evil Librarians
By Brandon Sanderson
This book is creative. It is also a little interesting. It is about a 13-year old boy who is a klutz. He finds out he has a special talent after he gets a package of strange sands(yes, sands) for a birthday present. He meets other people with strange talents like his. One of the weird people that he meets is his grandfather. His grandfather is a little crazy and somehow convinces Alcatraz that he lives in a world controlle d by evil librarians. They go on a somewhat wild adventure after the sands that he got for his birthday get stolen by the librarians. Overall, this book is a cool but somewhat confusing. I hope you found this review helpful. Have a nice week!
Unwritten
By Tara Gilboy
I have not finished it yet. but I liked the review and it was pretty cool about that girl sensing fire and feels like she is in the fire and also she gets teleported or somewhat in a story!
Time Castaways #1: The Mona Lisa Key
By Liesl Shurtliff
Matt, Corey, and Ruby are told never to go on public transport without their parents. Simple enough, until they are late for school and their parents have left in the middle of the night without a note. In a hurry, they race to the subway and end up getting on the wrong train. Like, really wrong. When they board, they discover that the odd subway car is actually a time-traveling, shape shifting ship. The three siblings meet an assortment of random characters aboard the ship, and travel throughout time, "saving" artifacts by stealing them, with the promise that they will be returned, safe and sound. They are told by the captain that they can return home at any time, but is he really on their side? It seems like it until some deeper secret is uncovered...
