In this book, six sixth-graders form their own secret society devoted to Egypt-related things. In the beginning, April moves from Hollywood to an unspecified Californian city famous for its university–her mother is busy pursuing a career as an esteemed actress. April, considered eccentric by many, makes friends with Melanie, who lives in April's grandmother's apartment; they discover their shared interest for imagining, and they invent the titular Egypt Game. Melanie's younger brother, a girl living in the apartment, and two boys from school all become involved in the Egypt game. But soon, a murder occurs, and the children are all cautioned to stay indoors–and the main suspect is the Professor, the reclusive man, in whose storage yard the Egyptians worship Egyptian Gods. Who is this strange human? And, who is the real criminal? This is a great book, full of good dialogue and realistic characters. It's witty and the writing is good too, but at times it seems a little dated, such as when the characters say "fink" and other weird words (this was written in 1967). I would recommend this book to people who like realistic fiction, as it focuses more on the friendships developing between the Egyptians than the actual mystery, though it is still important to the plot.

This book was incredible. I cannot believe that the sequel will pass this up! For fans of Skyward, Defy the Stars, or space romance!

In the finale of this amazing series there are a number of amazing events. First, Aragorn leads the dead to help Gondor, second the ring is destroyed and lastly the king is restored.

I would have never opened this book if it wasn’t for my fourth grade teacher, who read Mrs. Frisby and the Rats of NIMH to my class. At first, I was hesitant to start reading, but soon, I found myself astounded by Robert O’Brien’s writing and how he describes each detail. I really loved the characters, plot, and heart-pounding adventure that was in this book, and so did my fellow classmates. By the end, I was laughing, crying, and simply loved this book! Summary: Mrs. Frisby is a mouse who has three children and lives in hiding. If she comes out of her hole to do something other than look for food or move to a different place, the people who live on the nearby farm might find and capture her. If she takes one wrong step, she’ll be in danger. But luckily, she knows how to survive and stay safe...or so she thinks. One day, when she comes upon a crow and helps him escape from a cat, everything turns upside down. She finds a group of highly intelligent rats called the rats of NIMH, who have a mysterious connection to Mr. Frisby, her dead husband. This unexpected chain of events takes Mrs. Frisby on an adventure that she will never forget. Can she do it? Read this book to find out! Overall, I liked this book, and rate it 4/5 stars. I would definitely recommend it to people who like animal fiction and fantasy!

Title :The Spiderwick Chronicles Book 2-5 Author : Tony Diterlizzi & Holly Black Genre : fantasy and fiction I chose 3 for my rating because it's just right for me. One thing that I found interesting was all the illustrations, they were so realistic. I would recommend this book to grades 3-7.

Dang. I keep reading these books, and thinking, "Books can't get any better than this. This has got to be the best one yet!", but these books are getting better and better. If, you haven't already, read this series. Seriously.
