In this very strangely structured but good novel, a powerful entity, Death, tells us about strange humans. How they are very peculiar, for example, words. They are evil and extremely dangerous, yet beautiful. Death then proceeds to inform us of a story that perfectly embodies the humanness of humans, a story of book thieving and Germany. In 1939, it seems that a girl by the name of Liesel Meminger moves into a quaint town named Molching, based on Olching, near the great city of Munich. So days go by, and being very perturbed by her lack of reading-ability, the Book Thief–Liesel practices reading in the basement with her foster father Hans. And that is how the Book Thief learns about the power of words and books. But the lives of the Hubermanns, Liesel's foster parents, get turned upside down when a mysterious Jew by the name of Max Vandenburg arrives. Apparently, Hans has sort of rashly decided to help the son of his dead friend. Much pain and suffering and bombs and death and war follow. The writing style is like nothing I have seen before. There are many long, metaphorical sentences. And short ones too. The author, Markus Zusak, is clearly very good at this because the storytelling is awesome. Though I wouldn't recommend this for people in need of short and easy reads, as it takes concentration to read. But overall, I think you should probably read this if you are interested in Germany or historical fiction or a thought-provoking book.

This romance made me feel like I was in the clouds. I actually read this as an e-book, and that says something. If you know me, then you'll know that I prefer a physical book to words on a screen, but this book was so captivating, I couldn't just leave it there on my tablet! Three cheers for Kasie West!

Jane, Mark, Katherine, and Martha are having a boring summer until one day, Jane finds a coin on the sidewalk. When she inadvertently wishes for a fire, she discovers the coin's secret: it grants wishes! But you have to wish two times your wish, otherwise, it will only grant half of it. Soon, they use the magical charm to go on adventures, including meeting Sir Lancelot and going to a desert! What will happen next? How will the coin change their lives? This book was great, and I liked how the author told the story. Also, it was super funny! I recommend this book to people who like hilarious books with a bit of fantasy.

“This Summer, Billy dickens will fly across the country, hike a mountain, float a river, dodge a grizzly bear, shoot down a spy drone, save a neighbour’s cat, save an endangered panther, and then try to save his own father.” As soon as I saw these words I knew this was the book for me. And I was right! I love Carl Hiaasen’s books, he is such a creative writer and I loved Billy, his sister Belinda, and his mom who was this weird obsession was eagles, and his dad who has this super dangerous catching poachers job and Little Thunder-sky, “Lil” for short, and lastly, my favourite, Summer. She’s Lil’s daughter and also Billy’s father’s daughter. You should definetely read this book!

This book perfectly captures life in middle school! Rachel Vail gets everything; revenge, new friends and old friends, relationships. And the not so cool stuff, too; bullying, in person and on line, backstabbing and all that's in between. A great read for both guys and girls, from several different points of view, this story will never let you put it down!!!

This is an amazing book! Already read through the series 5 times. Highly recommended. If you like fighting books and books about training and stuff this is the book for you.

Stormbreaker is a scientific and adventure novel by Anthony Horowitz and is the most thrilling book I've read this semester. The character, Alex Rider, is a normal teen who lives with his uncle. But after his uncle's death, he founds out that his uncle is a secret agent and soon carries on his mission. Along the way, he faces different challenges and has to figure out how to save the world before the Stormbreaker computers "invade" Earth. I really like Alex because he is really brave, strong, intelligent, and is always up for a new challenge. One of my favorite scenes is when he is almost killed by Baron, but one of the workers help him escape. I was super nervous when I was reading that chapter and it was really a cliff-hanger that I didn't expect. This book is perfect for teens that like sci-fi but more realistic than fantasies, it's an amazing book!
