Its a good book to read on Christmas eve beofore you go to bed

Getting close to the end and I'm sad. In this book we learn a lot about Cricket and her life before she met her friends. We learn why she's different and how she really feels about Blue. Lots of twists and turns abound in this installation of the story, and there is no lacking for suspense in this one either. My favorite part only gives away a small portion of the plot line but I have to mention it. They end up caring for a baby dragonet that hatches on their watch and it becomes attached to the grumpy Sundew. So much cuteness and hilariousness ensues! I so love that part of the story! Can't wait to see how it develops and if it does in the next book, which I could only get in hardcover and is sitting next to me. A wonderful series and I love it. For such a short Wings of Fire book, I found myself clinging to the pages, eager to see what was going to happen next. This series hasn't disappointed me yet, and this book certainly didn't let me down. The characters are all so lovable, especially sweet bookworm Cricket and Sundew, who grew on me as the book progressed. But what I really like about this particular arc of the Wings of Fire series is just how serious these books get. This one deals with slavery and neglectful parents in a way that I believe any reader could understand and draw their own conclusions from. And of course, what I always love about this series are the epilogues. This book's epilogue was chilling, and I cannot wait to read book 13 to see what happens next.

BEST SERIES EVER!! Book 6 was kind of a continuation of Book 5, where it suddenly twists it at the end - like in the movies, where the guy you think is the good guy turns out to be the murderer in the end! Well, it turned out like this kind of in the book (although not with murderers but with taking over kingdoms and castles and locking people up and stuff like that!) Well, Will calls on the help of his friends Halt and Horace to round up an army to retake Castle Macindaw! Except, if they don't have enough men all they can do is use some brilliant genius to make up a big trick!! (Or hire some Skandians to help!... or is it Skandinavians... I forgot... ;P) Or maybe he'll do both! Really, read this book!! (and check out my other reviews on books earlier on in the series!)

In this book, six sixth-graders form their own secret society devoted to Egypt-related things. In the beginning, April moves from Hollywood to an unspecified Californian city famous for its university–her mother is busy pursuing a career as an esteemed actress. April, considered eccentric by many, makes friends with Melanie, who lives in April's grandmother's apartment; they discover their shared interest for imagining, and they invent the titular Egypt Game. Melanie's younger brother, a girl living in the apartment, and two boys from school all become involved in the Egypt game. But soon, a murder occurs, and the children are all cautioned to stay indoors–and the main suspect is the Professor, the reclusive man, in whose storage yard the Egyptians worship Egyptian Gods. Who is this strange human? And, who is the real criminal? This is a great book, full of good dialogue and realistic characters. It's witty and the writing is good too, but at times it seems a little dated, such as when the characters say "fink" and other weird words (this was written in 1967). I would recommend this book to people who like realistic fiction, as it focuses more on the friendships developing between the Egyptians than the actual mystery, though it is still important to the plot.

This book was incredible. I cannot believe that the sequel will pass this up! For fans of Skyward, Defy the Stars, or space romance!

I like this book because the Zombie is looking for a date for the ball. he looks for one from day to night and still can't find one. Spoiler: He goes to the ball anyway and he finds one he was in love. so that is why I give this book five stars.

In the finale of this amazing series there are a number of amazing events. First, Aragorn leads the dead to help Gondor, second the ring is destroyed and lastly the king is restored.

I would have never opened this book if it wasn’t for my fourth grade teacher, who read Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH to my class. At first, I was hesitant to start reading, but soon, I found myself astounded by Robert O’Brien’s writing and how he describes each detail. I really loved the characters, plot, and heart-pounding adventure that was in this book, and so did my fellow classmates. By the end, I was laughing, crying, and simply loved this book! Summary: Mrs. Frisby is a mouse who has three children and lives in hiding. If she comes out of her hole to do something other than look for food or move to a different place, the people who live on the nearby farm might find and capture her. If she takes one wrong step, she’ll be in danger. But luckily, she knows how to survive and stay safe...or so she thinks. One day, when she comes upon a crow and helps him escape from a cat, everything turns upside down. She finds a group of highly intelligent rats called the rats of NIMH, who have a mysterious connection to Mr. Frisby, her dead husband. This unexpected chain of events takes Mrs. Frisby on an adventure that she will never forget. Can she do it? Read this book to find out! Overall, I liked this book, and rate it 4/5 stars. I would definitely recommend it to people who like animal fiction and fantasy!
