The Mostly True Adventures of Homer P. Figg (Newbery Honor Book)
By Rodman Philbrick
I liked how I could picture the characters in my head. The author was able to give great details to the reader and it helped my imagination. The story was action-packed and very enjoyable. I listened to the audiobook while following the story in my paperback book. This made the book more exciting because the audiobook used different voices.
Fairest
By Marissa Meyer
I recently wrote a book review for the third book in the Lunar Chronicles, "Cress", and in that review I said that all the books in the Lunar Chronicles series were just as good, if not better, than the previous ones. I had spoke too soon, that statement does not apply to "Fairest." Just to clarify, "Fairest" is not part of the main Lunar Chronicles series, it is an add-on book/short story and it is read after "Cress" but before "Winter" so technically it is book 3.5. The main series is Cinder, Scarlet, Cress, and Winter, but Fairest is a book on the main villain, Lunar Queen Levana, and should be read as book 3.5. Now back to me saying that "Fairest" wasn't as good as the previous books, I would even say it is my least favorite book from this series. Now I know that since this is a book on a villain, I should expect it to be kind of dark and evil and I did, but not as much as it was. (Dun dun dun!) This book was still a wonderful read, and I think maybe I wasn't used to reading books about the evil people in the world, or in this case, the moon. Some people say that they don't want to read this book before the finale of the series, "Winter", because they are worried that they will feel bad for Levana. Let me tell you, even after reading this book, I still think that Levana is super evil and cruel. I guess that after reading her backstory in this book, I could say that some of her "evilness" is due to her childhood, which was pretty horrible, but Levana made some pretty bad decisions and you can't blame all of them on her upbringing. I haven't read "Winter", the last book in the series yet, but I'm pretty sure it is necessary to read Levana's backstory before "Winter" because Levana has a big part to play in the last book. "Fairest" was alright, but it put a big spot light on beauty, and that is because all Lunars have a special power called glamour, which is the ability to manipulate brain waves and make people see you different than you are. Levana uses her glamour all the time to make herself prettier than she is, because of what her sister did to her when they were younger. I didn't think it was possible, but Levana's sister is even more evil than Levana grew up to be. Levana also uses her glamour to make her childhood crush fall in love with her, forcing their marriage and dooming herself to a lifetime of forced and fake love. Being the reader of this book was kind of hard, because I could see all sorts of things that Levana didn't, due to her being figuratively blinded by using her glamour to force power and love on other people and herself. Overall, I would say that this is a pretty dark book since it is based on a villain, but I would still recommend it to teens who like the lunar chronicles, because it is necessary to read if you want to understand the last book of the Lunar Chronicles series. I hope this review was helpful!

Family Tree Book One: Better to Wish
By Ann M. Martin
Abigail Nichols who known as just Abby. At beginning of the book, Abby is a fourth-grader along with her best friend, Sarah Moreside, and her another friend, Orrin Umhay in Lewisport. Her sisters, Rose, Fred, and Adele, along with Mama (Nell) and Pop (Luther). But Pop is not nice father to his kids and his wife. Pop has even forbad Abby to be with Orrin and Marie. In few chapters later, when Abby and her family has moved to Bargent Point (sorry if I has spelt this wrong) and met her future husband, Zander Burley, who was a Army soldier along with Richard, and former high-school/college student when Zander has married Abby in the ending. And shortly after, Mama became so sick since that Pop has sent Fred, who is a crippled boy to the special school just for the crippled kids/adults, probably just about few weeks later, Mama dies. Later in the book, when Abby was just now in the high school, she met two girls, Maureen and Darcy, and she also met; Wyman, Richard, and Helen March. In the nearly ending of the book, Helen married Abby`s father, and became her stepmom. Would recommend this book! - Happy Reading!
Scarlet
By Marissa Meyer
Just like the previous Lunar Chronicles book, "Scarlet" is based on a fairy tale, more specifically, Little Red Riding Hood. I loved the mix of the old classics and the futuristic sci-fi in this wonderfully written novel. The main character, named Scarlet, has lived with her grandmother on their farm for as long as she can remember, but unbeknownst to her, everything is about to change. One night her grandma disappears, leaving only her ID chip behind. Scarlet knows that she has been kidnapped, but the police are convinced her grandma just ran away of her own accord, so Scarlet decides to find her grandma herself. She meets a very suspicious character named Wolf who earns his living participating in street fights. They run off together because Wolf claims to have information on her grandma's whereabouts, and Scarlet is desperate. Right when Scarlet thinks she has finally figured out Wolf's character, he turns out to be not at all what he seems. But still Scarlet still feels drawn towards him, even after he betrayed her, and lied to her. Wolf wants to change so he can be with Scarlet, but someone else is controlling him, turning him into an animal, with thoughts only to hunt and kill. Through many highs and lows, and ups and downs, many different stories intertwine when the characters find out why they are connected, and why they have been brought together. This book is a great read for teens who love pretty much any genre.

By Marissa Meyer
I Loovvveeed the Lunar Chronicles. It’s now one of my absolute favorite book series! I LOVE how the author made the series based off of Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Rapunzel, and Snow White. I just finished the first main 4 books, so now I’m reading the extra book-epilogue-sequels, Stars Above and Fairest. I would definitely recommend this series to anyone who likes a fantasy-sci-fi-adventure-romance packed book. I do wish the series was a bit longer, though :( But anyways, lovveeed it! 💖💖💖
Cress
By Marissa Meyer
This third installation to Marissa Meyer's Lunar Chronicles did not disappoint. Unlike most book series in which the books get worse as the series continues, all of the books in the Lunar Chronicles are just as good, if not better, than the previous ones. And just like its previous books, Cress is a wonderfully written, futuristic, sci-fi, retelling of a classic fairy tale. As you can probably guess by the title, Cress is based on Rapunzel, and just like Rapunzel, the main character Crescent (Cress for short) has been trapped up high for a long time. But unlike Rapunzel who was trapped in a tower, Cress' prison is much higher. Cress is trapped in a satellite orbiting the moon high up in space. Being trapped in a satellite for so long has resulted in Cress being an excellent hacker, just the thing that the fugitive crew traveling together on the Rampion would need. And yes, Cinder does know about Cress because she is the one on the other side of the D-Comm chip that Cinder found in the Prince's android. The Rampion Crew (Cinder, Scarlet, Wolf, and Thorne) attempt to rescue Cress, but in the process they lose some members of their crew, and gain some new ones. The crew is trying to stop Kai from marrying Queen Levana and get Cinder on the Lunar throne as Princess Selene, the rightful heir. There is also a tiny hint of romance in this book between Cress and Captain Thorne, but Cress is nervous it might be going only one way, because she has done a lot of research on him, but he doesn't seem to know anything about her. She thought that he was a wonderful hero, but when she learns the whole truth from him rather than what she found on the internet, it turns out that he may be what everyone thinks he is, a sarcastic fugitive with a big ego. But even after learning this, Cress cannot get rid of her feelings for him. This book has so many hidden connections to Scarlet and Cinder, and they do a great job of tying the whole story together, and keeping you turning pages. I would totally recommend this to teens who like sci-fi, romance, and fantasy added to the classic fairy tale. I hadn't even finished the second book before I knew that this was one of my favorite series, so I would encourage other teens to try it too.
