The Real Boy

The Real Boy

By Anne Ursu

The real boy is about a boy named Oscar. Oscar lives on an island in a place called the Barrow, where he is the hand for the greatest magician in the barrow, Caleb. Oscar is shy around many other people. There is also a city near the Barrow called Asteri, but the people living inside the Barrow call it The Shining City. The people in Asteri are supposed to be perfect. The problem in the story is the City children are getting sick. Also, something is stealing magical things from the marketplace. Find out how Oscar deals with these problems by reading the book. I think the lesson of this story is to use your own power to deal wit problems without things like magic to help you. If you like books about magic, this is the perfect book for you.

A Dog's Life: The Autobiography Of A Stray

A Dog's Life: The Autobiography Of A Stray

By Ann M Martin, Ann M. Martin

I really like this book because it puts things into a whole new perspective. Instead of writing in third person, the author makes it seem like the dog is an actual human being in a dog's body. The story is altogether a really sweet, cute and touching tale although there were sad parts where Squirrel (the dog) encountered obstacles. This book is really memorable because it's very different from the other dog novels. I also think the whole book is one big metaphor because it tells us about the obstacles in life and how we have to overcome them, so it was very inspirational for me. I totally recommend this book to all animal lovers! A must read!

Anna and the French Kiss

Anna and the French Kiss

By Stephanie Perkins

This book was so good! It's really romantic, sweet and cute, but it's so much more than that. The book was also funny and unique. Instead of a simple sweet little romance, this book has quick witted, intense humor and its characters are simply out of this world. Anna, the protagonist, has the strongest voice, and all her actions and dialogue just showcases her personality even better, even when she has flaws and insecurities. I learned that you don't have to be perfect to be a hero. There were so many things that I loved in the book. For one, the plot - Anna and St.Clair start out as friends. Anna has feelings for a co-worker back at home in the States while St.Clair has a girlfriend that is much older than he is. The author doesn't rush the plot like some other authors do, instead she lets the whole story build up slowly, and that's what I really like about this book.

Dress Coded

Dress Coded

By Carrie Firestone

Molly Frost is an 8th grader who notices injustice in her school. Mr. Dern, Dr. Couchman, and Fingertip are on dress-code patrol, but here's the problem. They are only dress coding girls. For the silliest of reasons. And what's worse is that they are only dress coding the girls with curves, while girls like Molly, who are late bloomers, or in other words, 'invisible' are completely shunned. Molly and her friends are outraged by this, so Molly decides to start a podcast. She has guest come on her podcast, and share the story about how they got dress-coded. From tampon fails, to fevers. From showing shoulders, to sunburn. The more episodes the podcast has, the more drama gets stirred up, and what's worse, is Molly's home situation. Her older brother is addicted to vaping, and her mother is always stressed. But everything that happens is actually a big help to Molly. Before, nobody listened, let alone even cared about the podcast. Now, everybody listens to it, and it even grabs attention by places outside of the school. This story also feature LGBTQ+ awareness, vaping, and smoking addiction, nicotine dealing, bullying, sibling rivalry, puberty, women's rights, friendship, and so much more. It teaches girls and boys not to be ashamed of who they are, what they wear, and what they look like. Full of soul and emotion to the point where I even felt the same emotions as Molly. I highly recommend it. This is by far my favorite book.

By Daisy Meadows

i think the puppies she cares for are as cute as a little button. but i think the goblins that work for Jack Frost should get a lot smarter in order to out smart the fairies.

The Throne of Fire (The Kane Chronicles, Book 2)

The Throne of Fire (The Kane Chronicles, Book 2)

By Rick Riordan

Hey I still am not done with it but here is a summary so far In the pages 1- 384 of the book The Throne of Fire by Rick Riordan, Sadie and Carter are training young magicians, like them. Sadie and Carter have to find the book of Ra. (There are three parts to it.) The first part is at a museum, the second is in a desk, and the third is where they store mummies. Sadie and Carter went together on the first two, but not in the last. Carter wanted to find Zia, his secret crush. So Sadie went to find the scroll with Walt. Walt is a trainee magician. When they go to find the scroll, Sadie finds out something about Walt. Walt’s family was cursed! His curse was, if he did more magic he could die! When they found the last scroll, Sadie put it together and it said all the steps so Sadie and Carter fallowed them. First they made a portal on top of the Great Pyramid, and then they sailed to the fourth house with some challenges. After that the scrolls lead them to Ra. When they found Ra, he was acting like a baby. There was still one more step but they did not know what it was. When they went back to the lobby, the time was past the eighth hour; that meant they couldn’t go to the eighth house to figure out the next step. So they went to their father and mother. When they got there, Sadie and Carter told them about what happened, but they already knew. Their mom and dad invited a special, yet dangerous guest. The guest was the moon god. I don’t know what’s going to happen, but he is going to help them. My prediction is that the moon god is going to slow the time down to let them into the eighth house.
