Poor Marin was put into the foster system when she was just four because her mother abandoned her. Her mother is the antagonist in this story.

The Rescue (Kidnapped, Book 3)
By Gordon Korman
This book was an amazing grand finale to a breath-taking series. It made me sweat with anticipation and fear what was about to happen, as you never know when you come to the last book, as there is a reason that it is the last book of the series. This book did not leave me disappointed or sad. I really enjoy Gordon Korman's writing, even though it is a bit short.
Hollywood, Dead Ahead (43 Old Cemetery Road)
By Kate Klise
Hollywood, Dead Ahead is the fifth book in the 43 Old Cemetery Road series. It features a man named Ignatius B. Grumply, a ghost named Olive C. Spence, and a boy named Seymour Hope, all of whom are living together in Spence Mansion as each others' adopted family. The book starts with film producer Moe Block Busters, who wants to make a movie based on their book. But when the trio arrives in Hollywood, they find some serious problems with the script, the casting, and most of all the contract Ignatius signed. Soon Olive digs up some dirty secrets, involving the frightening plans of Moe and his team of directors. Those plans, however, will soon go astray, because Olive is exactly the right person (or ghost) to come up with some creative schemes of her own. I definitely thought this book was darker than the other four in the series, particularly because of the despicable plans of the movie producers. This wasn't necessarily a bad thing, especially for older readers, such as me. It's possible their frightening intentions have the capability of scaring younger readers, but for me it made the story the most fascinating and captivating of all. This book was really creative and unique, as is the rest of the series and other books by Kate and Sarah Klise. I very much enjoyed the way it was written in letters, newspapers, contracts, plane tickets, post cards, drawings, and other paper materials. The addition of a ghost who can only communicate through writing definitely helped with dialogue, which I can see being a very difficult thing to deal with in this style of writing. Overall, I loved the book's fast-paced and creative style. It was a quick read, a great book to blow through as soon as I get a few hours of alone time. I would recommend this series in general for 10-12 year olds, but even older readers like me can definitely get a kick out of them.
The Landry News
undefined
When Cara Landry discovers that Mr. Larson, her worst teacher that does not want to teach them anymore, once won multiple best teacher of the year rewards before, she starts a newspaper that badmouths him. But after nearly costing him her job, Cara learns an important lesson. So I have a little backstory. I read this book a really long time ago but then I decided to reread it, which refreshed my memories of what happened.... After I finished this, I thought like, maybe I can start my own newspaper agency. I presented the idea to my friends, who were a little uneasy at first, then agreed to it. Since I was homeschooled, my only option to release it was at church. There we left it in the rooms, because we wanted to keep our identity a secret. Many people liked it, so we, or rather I, worked on it. I had teamed up with a no k-pop group because that time I was against it and our next issue was about how Kpop was bad... stuff like that, and many people were unhappy with that issue so they told us to stop and never write any issues again. I had already planned another issue but that one was never released. So the newspaper fad, caused by this book, ended, and so started many other fads. Now I am neutral about Kpop and we don't have a fad right now but that memory was really exciting and fun to refresh by reading this book again.

Ramona Forever
By Beverly Cleary
I like this book because it was so interesting that mrs. Quimby is having a baby and aunt beatrice is getting married at a time her big sister was having another baby. Ramona on the other hand is worried that her mom is going to have the baby at the wedding. I'd recommend this book to kids that like classic adventures with Ramona Quimby. You would also like the other Ramona classics in the series "Ramona And Beezuz ( Beatrice)"all by Beverly Cleary.
