A Drop of Hope

A Drop of Hope

By Keith Calabrese

This book was flat-out amazing!! Ernest, Ryan and Lizzy have always seen and heard stories about their town of Cliffs Donnelly's wishing well. But they've never really believed that it actually granted wishes... until one day they find themselves underneath the well in a small cave, able to hear every wish tossed down into the well's abyss. And for some reason it seems to connect with Ernest's grandfather's attic. Ernest's grandfather told Ernest repeatedly and sort of spookily to clean up his attic after he passes, and when Ernest does, the object that he takes out of the attic ends up doing something to grant a wish from the well. Sounds pretty crazy, right?? Well, at this point nothing seems crazy anymore to Ernest, Lizzy and Ryan. They start seeing that with a little bit of kindness and thought, wishes do come true. This book was actually filled with some mystery and a lot of suspense. And I LOVED it!! It was SO GOOD! Keith Calabrese does an amazing job describing the 3 friend's tale, and I hung on to every word and devoured this book in 2 days! If you like adventure, mystery, and basically a good book, you NEED to read this book, because I COMPLETELY and TOTALLY recommend it, for any age and anyone. :)

Island of Fire (The Unwanteds)

Island of Fire (The Unwanteds)

By Lisa McMann

Island of Fire starts right where Island of Silence left off, and Alex and the rest of the inhabitants of Artimé are shocked that their incredible home just disappeared before their eyes. Everyone is living in a gray shack, surviving on what little food and water they have. Now Alex is their leader, and he has to figure out how to make Artimé come back before it is too late. Meghan and Samheed are still on Warbler Island, in complete darkness and unable to speak because of thorn necklaces sewn into their necks. With all of these burdens and responsibilities on his back, will Alex be able to handle it all? Will the Artiméans with thorn necklaces be able to speak again? In a wonderful third installment of a thrilling and enjoyable series, Island of Fire will leave readers wanting more. Lisa McMann strikes again with another excellent novel. My thoughts: I really enjoyed this book. It was a great addition to the Unwanteds series, and I can not wait for the following books. The description was great in this book, and Lisa does a great job of making the world of The Unwanteds series very vivid and realistic. Like book one and two, I absolutely LOVE the cover art. Owen Richardson is the perfect cover artist for this series. For some reason, even though it was 464 pages long I thought it was too short. Maybe it’s because there aren’t many words on the page, or that when I read it I was on a road trip. Lisa McMann, keep writing, and I will be reading. Can’t wait to see Lisa @ #AustinTeenBookFestival! :-) I truly can not wait to read book 4 (and see the cover and title); my guess for the title is Island of Water. I bet I’ll be like, “Told ya so! :-) Also, I want to thank Emma Sector at Simon and Schuster for sending me an ARC of this book. Thank you so much, Emma!

The Real Boy

The Real Boy

By Anne Ursu

The real boy is about a boy named Oscar. Oscar lives on an island in a place called the Barrow, where he is the hand for the greatest magician in the barrow, Caleb. Oscar is shy around many other people. There is also a city near the Barrow called Asteri, but the people living inside the Barrow call it The Shining City. The people in Asteri are supposed to be perfect. The problem in the story is the City children are getting sick. Also, something is stealing magical things from the marketplace. Find out how Oscar deals with these problems by reading the book. I think the lesson of this story is to use your own power to deal wit problems without things like magic to help you. If you like books about magic, this is the perfect book for you.

i think the puppies she cares for are as cute as a little button. but i think the goblins that work for Jack Frost should get a lot smarter in order to out smart the fairies.

The Throne of Fire (The Kane Chronicles, Book 2)

The Throne of Fire (The Kane Chronicles, Book 2)

By Rick Riordan

Hey I still am not done with it but here is a summary so far In the pages 1- 384 of the book The Throne of Fire by Rick Riordan, Sadie and Carter are training young magicians, like them. Sadie and Carter have to find the book of Ra. (There are three parts to it.) The first part is at a museum, the second is in a desk, and the third is where they store mummies. Sadie and Carter went together on the first two, but not in the last. Carter wanted to find Zia, his secret crush. So Sadie went to find the scroll with Walt. Walt is a trainee magician. When they go to find the scroll, Sadie finds out something about Walt. Walt’s family was cursed! His curse was, if he did more magic he could die! When they found the last scroll, Sadie put it together and it said all the steps so Sadie and Carter fallowed them. First they made a portal on top of the Great Pyramid, and then they sailed to the fourth house with some challenges. After that the scrolls lead them to Ra. When they found Ra, he was acting like a baby. There was still one more step but they did not know what it was. When they went back to the lobby, the time was past the eighth hour; that meant they couldn’t go to the eighth house to figure out the next step. So they went to their father and mother. When they got there, Sadie and Carter told them about what happened, but they already knew. Their mom and dad invited a special, yet dangerous guest. The guest was the moon god. I don’t know what’s going to happen, but he is going to help them. My prediction is that the moon god is going to slow the time down to let them into the eighth house.

This book was a thrilling and adventurous story of mischief and betrayal. Hiccup is bullied by Dogs Breath and Snotlout while he is trying to become a pirate. When they find his Great Great Grandpas treasure (the greatest pirate of all Gimberd the Ghastly) it is full of booby traps and on top of that they are betrayed by a someone they trust. Will Hiccup survive? Who betrayed him? IF you want to know you must read the book. I would recommend this book to third graders and above. It has some minor curse words.

This book is awesome!!! I love the Ever After High stories! This one is about Darling Charming and how she doesn't like Damsel in distressing class. So she goes to Hero Training class, in a suit of armor, and she is so good at it! I totally recommend this book and its series. I checked this book out of a library but then I got it for Christmas, but I love this book so I don't care. Have a nice day and keep on reading!!😀😀
