An Unlikely Friendship: A Novel of Mary Todd Lincoln and Elizabeth Keckley
By Ann Rinaldi
It's ok
This book will be good for people who like happy endings but also like a interesting story. Me personally would recommend this book to people who like the limes of the civil war but not the actual wars themselves. I enjoyed reading this book and I would give it a 3.5 out of 5 stars.

Journey to Nowhere
By Mary Jane Auch
This book is the best book for read aloud. When my teacher read this to my class, we all were on the edge of our seats. This book is about Mem, a girl who is very frustrated about moving from her beloved home in Hartland to move to the Genesee country. One trait for men in the beginning is stubborn because she refused to move from her true home. In the end Mem is independent because she survives on her own in the wild with a little help from Artemis Ware. The other books in the series are outstanding, too.The most heartbreaking one is frozen summer. I am currently at the end of the road home, and this series will never let me down and that's a fact. So read this book to find out about mem's journey and see if she'll be capable to make it in the wild, making it to NY, and see for yourself how her locket has helped her.
Crispin: The End of Time (Crispin (Balzer & Bray))
By Avi
This is an example of another reading-the-last-book-in-a-trilogy mistake of mine. Even though I did that, I seriously thought that Crispin: The End of Time was awesome and a great book. Though why it didn't at least get a NEWBERY HONOR, I don't understand. It was that good!
