The Legend of the Shark Goddess: A Nanea Mystery (American Girl Beforever 1941: Nanea Mystery)
By Erin Falligant
I really love this book! In the book this mysterious boy came to Nanea's grandfather's shop. Nanea is the main character. He brought an empty sack and when he left it was full of stuff. Nanea thought he was stealing from her grandfather. She teams up with her friend to figure things out. I love the American Girl dolls too!

Sleepover Sleuths (Nancy Drew and the Clue Crew #1)
By Carolyn Keene
Nancy drew and her friends are like kid detectives, There always trying to solve crime at there school. The books are really amazing there cool and adventurous, and there can be a twist to the story at times and they don't know what to do. I think that these books are perfect for 7+.

Requiem (Delirium Trilogy)
By Lauren Oliver
All of Lena's adventures have led up to this moment: breaking Portland free of its cured "Zombies." However, with Alex alive, she is still fighting a battle with amor nervosa deliria. Alex says he never really loved her. Lena doesn't dare to hope and rebounds to Julian. But when Alex strikes up a relationship with the lovely new girl, Coral, Lena can't deny her jealousy. Venturing through the Wilds with regulators means death at any moment, though, so Lena tries to push all of her feelings out of the way. The stakes are increasingly higher; regulators are now infiltrating the Wilds to kill all the Invalids. There is a traitor hiding within the Invalid group. Thousands die in the process. With her previously-thought-dead mother back, Julian and Alex fighting physically, and the Wilds a place filthier than she ever imagined, Lena wonders if it was a mistake ever joining the Invalids. But she made a choice. And without the cure, you are free to choose, even to choose the wrong thing. This book was dazzling, but the only thing I was opposed to was the open ending. I would not recommend starting the Delirium Trilogy at all if you do not like open endings, because this final book ends with one, and there is no fourth book. At the end, you don't really know who Lena ends up with, or if the Invalids win, or if Fred Hargrove dies, or if Portland simply becomes more corrupt. But the open ending is also a symbol: you, the reader, get to choose and interpret what will happen in the end, just as Lena and the Invalids get to choose because they are not cured and turned choiceless. Overall, I loved this book, I just am not a fan of indefinite endings.
