The Scorch Trials (Maze Runner, Book Two)

The Scorch Trials (Maze Runner, Book Two)

By James Dashner

Scorch Trials is the second book in the Maze runner series, I actually LOVE The Maze Runner Series and I think that The Scorch Trials book is AWESOME, So anyway this story is about Thomas after escape from the maze, and he is brought to a WICKED base in a middle of a desert. After few days, Thomas find out that the WICKED is taking all the people into a experiment. So Thomas and his friend decide to escape the base and run into a crowded desert. The WICKED tries to find them, but they unfortunately they run away, they run into a old building with some very old resources in it. They have to live their or they will die in the desert. So they start to try to find resource in the old big building, When Mingho found a machine that is used to produce electrify. When Mingho turn it on, All the zombies came out and try to kill them, after they escape from the building they want to find the "mountain people" which is against WICKED. They remember what Jason(The WICKED PEOPLE) tell them. Once they get there, The "Mountain people" Somehow helped Thomas and his friend. The WICKED found them and they escape. After long time, Teresa contract the WICKED about Thomas is at the last base the the "Mountain people" So the WICKED come and gets all the people but no Thomas, Thomas decide to revenge. And then this book ends. Overall I think this book is written very well, the story making sense. I think the most interesting part and shocking part is when Teresa telling WICKED that the location of Thomas, I feel shock too. One of my favorite part of this book is when the fighting part, at the ending of this book, action going on, the most heart-breaking, betrayals. From my perspective I think Thomas have full confidence of revenging WICKED and save his friend. Me and my friend like to read this book, even adults love it, Even my grandpa likes the movie of this book. In my personal opinion, I would suggest this book to the readers who loves book about action of course, romance, mysteries and betray stories. I think I learned a lot of things and lesson on this book, for example don't betray your friend because of some purpose, or some surviving is the natural without resources and more. I enjoys this book since I start reading this book, I just loves how the story goes in this book. I STRONGLY suggest you to read this enjoyable book.

The Land of Stories: An Author's Odyssey

The Land of Stories: An Author's Odyssey

By Chris Colfer

Chris Colfer's 5th addition in his magical series is my favorite one yet. Filled with laughs and thrills it will keep you reading past your bedtime. I personally love The Land of Stories: An Author's Odyssey because it provides a glimpse into a kids (Connor) imagination and I think others will to. I recommend this book because it's such an enjoyable read and is an awesome continuation of the series and battle between the evil villains and Connor and his friends. The message I got from this book is think outside the box and have hope.Some people wouldn't enjoy the take on travelling into Connor's stories and "reading" about them but I thought Colfer used a unique writing style which made the story really fun to read. I recommend this book for ages 9+ and give it 5/5 stars. Happy readings! bean_boy12

Sophie Quire and the Last Storyguard

Sophie Quire and the Last Storyguard

By Jonathan Auxier

This was a good book, action-packed and thrilling, and seemed very interesting. I recommend this to people who like fantasy and adventure. The reason I gave the book 3/5 stars is because it had a fairytale-style demeanor, and the ending was a little “happily ever after”. Still, I liked the storyline because it was engaging.

Kristy and the Baby Parade (Baby-Sitters Club #45)

Kristy and the Baby Parade (Baby-Sitters Club #45)

By Ann M. Martin

When Kristy learns about the baby parade that is going on in Stoneybrook, she can't stop thinking about all the cute babies she knows like Squirt, Lucy, and Emily Michelle. Then an idea hits her.... She would enter all the babies she knows and go in the parade with them! What a great idea, or so she thought. The BSC girls decide to go with the nursery rhyme, The Old Woman Who Lived in A Shoe as their float. But it doesn't turn out well. The float looks like an orange blob, the babies won't stop crying, and worst of all, the BSC girls are fighting. I suggest this book because it teaches friendship, teamwork, and respect of others' opinions but in a fun, exciting, realistic way. I suggest it for people who like babysitting and friendship. Happy Reading!

And worst of all, a team called Bart's Bashers want to compete with Kristy's Krushers. And, as if things could not be worse, Kristy has a crush with a capital C on the Basher's coach, Bart. I suggest this if you like sports, babysitting, slight romance, and friendship!

Cassandra is definitely one of my top 5! Here is a quick summary in my one words Cassandra is a real fortune teller, but no one EVER believes her fortunes! That's because the godboy Apollo cursed her when they were young. Cassandra is, or was, the princess of Troy, and the Trojan Horse destroyed all of Troy. The immortals ended the war with the horse which was in a game. Cassandra hates the immortals now... I don't want to spoil the story but go check it out!
