The Giver (illustrated; gift edition) (Giver Quartet)

By Lois Lowry

this book was absolutley and truly and fantastically just amazing. it really captures the light of Jonas' life as a kid in the future and the Giver-to-be. it honestly saddens me that he and his friends never got to experience color or feelings or even their own memory.:0

Regarding the Fountain: A Tale, in Letters, of Liars and Leaks

Regarding the Fountain: A Tale, in Letters, of Liars and Leaks

By Kate Klise

BVP

Regarding the Fountain, by Kate Klise, is a funny book. He problem is when the water fountain does not work then they need a new drinking fountain, but they don't have any water left. Then they need to get a water fountain but they need to find out where all of the water went. The characters are different from other books because this book has many funny characters, and usually books only have one or two. For example, one of the characters goes all over the world for stuff for the fountain and gets a lot of crazy things like one flower all the way from Africa. The characters have funny names like Dee Eel, Sam N. and Wally Russ. Another reason the book is so different and unique is because it is written in letters instead of narration and dialogue. Most of the kids liked it in my books club. If you like funny books, you will like this book.

Scarlet

Scarlet

By Marissa Meyer

Scarlet lives on a farm with her grandmother. She works as a delivery girl back and forth from the farm to the Rieux Tavern, to deliver vegetables and fruit. But now, her grandmother has gone missing, and the police have called off the search for her. Then she finds her dad looking for something, tearing the whole house apart for it, to give to the kidnappers so he and his mother are safe; and the only thing he remembers about the kidnappers are tattoos on their elbows with LSOP and then a few numbers. At the tavern, Scarlet finds a man with a tattoo on his elbow and he is being really kind to her, so Scarlet does not know if she can trust him. On a loyal search to find her grandmother, Scarlet and Cinder’s paths intertwine as they both face problems big enough to not be able to handle alone. As Cinder is on the run from the government with another outlaw, the queen’s army is getting ready to attack in the thrilling second book in The Lunar Chronicles penned by Marissa Meyer. What I thought about it: Scarlet was amazing. I loved how much of the fairy tale, Little Red Riding Hood, was incorporated into the book. Scarlet is Little Red, and her grandmother is missing and she goes looking for her. At first, I wasn’t so thrilled that the whole story wasn’t going to be about Cinder, but as I started reading it I loved how the stories of Cinder and Scarlet blended together, and at the end they faced their problems together; as a team. I loved how Marissa really brought the fairy tale to life and made it realistic and believable in the real world. Also, the cover is just so amazing! That red cape is just so flowy and wavy, and I love that you can see part of Scarlet. I think that the struggles between Luna and Earth will be more tense as we go on, from the attack and because Levana is just so evilly terrible! Oops, terribly evil, my mistake. I can’t wait for Cress!

My FANGtastically Evil Vampire Pet

My FANGtastically Evil Vampire Pet

By Mo O'Hara

I thought that the My Big Fat Zombie Goldfish series was really good, this series is even better! It has a few puns in it, like when Sami said that the polar bears hat are to small (she meant ice CAPS). It is about Tom's older brother Mark, who is an evil scientist. This book is about Mark going to Camp Mwhaaa-haa-ha-a-watha with his friend Sanj and his kitten, Fang, but it does not go as planned. It has nice (I mean evil) pictures throughout the book. I recommend this book.

Belle Prater's Boy

By Ruth White

So i read this book as sort of as an assignment and it was ok i guess. It could have been more exciting and i don't really like "classical literature." Overall, not bad, but i wouldn't read it for pleasure.
