The Novice: Summoner: Book One (The Summoner Trilogy)

The Novice: Summoner: Book One (The Summoner Trilogy)

By Taran Matharu

This book is just great. It's a little like Harry Potter, but way more mature (not Game-Of-Thrones-mature; this one is still for teens). It has lots of characters we just can't help but to deeply love or to hate so much we'd like to just put our hands through the book and strangle them. Of course, that means this book has exceptional antagonists, conspiracys, secrets... heck, even the obligatory magical tournament at the end of the year, which is, as in many books about schools of some sort, the climax of the book, has more to it than meets the eyes, and the protagonist's victory becomes more important than ever in books like this one (thus adding extra tension). The setting is described in a very rich way, putting in just enough details to leave us with a very good idea of the surroundings, but without getting boring. The various characters, both the goodies and the baddies, are interesting and well developed. I honestly can't think of anything bad to say about the book. Perhaps only that the final showdown is a little short for the huge amount of time spent building it up, but it still almost makes up for it in suspense, still delivering a finale I always like to read again. And of course, there's the twist in the end that'll make you run to the next library and buy its sequel, The Inquisition. Lucky you who read the book after its sequel coming out... Of course, after the way The Inquisition ends, I just can't wait for book 3!

Beauty and the Beast: Lost in a Book

Beauty and the Beast: Lost in a Book

By Jennifer Donnelly

Beauty and the Beast: Lost in a Book is an amazing back story behind the tale as old as time we all know and love. The book begins with the sisters Love and Death. The extremely competitive sisters make a bet to decide what is more powerful; love or hatred. Along the way, book-loving Belle discovers a mysterious book in Beast's library called Nevermore. A magical book that transports the owner to their dream world. In this amazing adventure Belle finds friends,meets enemies, and learns that you are the author of your own story during all the twists and turns. I would recommend this to anyone who loves the Beauty and the Beast story and understands the feeling of getting lost in a book.
