Island of Silence (The Unwanteds)

Island of Silence (The Unwanteds)

By Lisa McMann

I loved this book! It is about how Lani and Sameed get captured in a mystyresly silent isaland and become slaves. Meanwhile Artim'e has dissipeard and it is up to Alex to restore Artim'e and become the new leader. This book is for ages 7 and up if you are a good reader. It is a fantasy action packed and emotionol book full of adventure. I the character Sameed got a little more bulky because he was a slave and he was working on the ship building. He got more brave because he wasn't with his friends and he was stranded on this island that wasn't home. He became more caring because him and Lani got separated and that made him feel sad, so that made him feel like needed to be with his friends. This book is the second unwanted book so be sure to read the first one first. Hope you love this book.

The BFG

The BFG

By NA

Ho Hum.... What do we have here? The BFG by Roald Dahl is a classic for a reason. So, let's start shall we? I really loved this book. The characters are full of love and are just AMAZING. But.... there is still something going on here. Even though the story was amazing and such, I felt a tad-bit of randomness. Because of that it knocked off one star. Still four stars, nothing to worry about. Now, now , now.... let's talk about the main characters- The BFG and Sophie. Their friendship is adorable. I felt that this was a message to love someone in the inside not the outside. I know what you're thinking, just spill it out...... awwwwww❤️ Anyway, to wrap this whole thing up, The BFG by Roald Dahl is just plain AWESOME! And hey, 4 stars is not that bad.

Meet Junie B. Jones!! "The B. Stands for Beatrice. Except I don't like Beatrice, I like B. and that's all." It’s the first day of kindergarten. But Junie B. did not like riding the bus to school. She thinks its scary and that meanie ol' Jim rides that bus. Only guess what? Junie B. is an excellent hider. So, at the end of the day when everyone lines up to go home . . . . but Junie B. Jones finds her way out of riding the bus, and doesn’t get on. I really liked this book, it kind of reminded me of my kindergarten years, both of my parents worked so they couldn't take me to school. I was really scared about the bus, but I saw some of my friends on there and felt pretty comfortable. I love Barbra parks she is a GREAT author!!!!!

The Summer I Turned Pretty

The Summer I Turned Pretty

By Jenny Han

The Summer I Turned Pretty is one of the most amazing books I've read this year. Belly is finally going to be old enough to fit in with Conrad, Jeremiah, and her brother. Every summer she expects Conrad to notice her, but he never did. This summer, Conrad changed completely, he starts to smoke and stops talking to everyone, but so did Belly, she became pretty and her whole summer becomes out of control. I think my favourite character will definitely be Jeremiah because he's very friendly, humorous, and is always there for Belly to be her best friend no matter what. Whenever Belly is feeling down, he is there to solver her problems. I also love how the author uses many throwback chapters to let people know how much they have grown and to let us see what memories made Belly the person she is today. People should definitely read this book, Belly faces many problems that teens today can also experience, such as crush problems, puberty, friendship, and mostly growth. If you've read To All The Boys I Loved Before also by Jenny Han, you will love this book for sure!

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Getaway

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Getaway

By JEFF KINNEY

Christmas is almost here and the Heffley family is way behind on all things Christmas and they want to get away. Even though Greg thinks it's not a good idea as he is perfectly happy staying indoors by the fireplace all through Christmas break, his family decides to go to Isla de Corales for the Christmas and be away from the excruciating cold. They are all packed and they leave for the airport but without taking in consideration all the traffic they will get. They make it to the airport and hit snag after snag. After lots of bumps, they make it to Isla de Corales and instantly they feel better as the hot air hits them. But family holidays aren't family holidays until there is a lot of bickering and that's exactly what ensues. Greg's mother wants the family to spend time together but Greg's dad wants to do his own thing and Rowley wants to do his own thing too. Greg is looking to do lots of cool activities so that he can finally show Rowley that he had stellar time on his getaway. Let's just say that short of getting thrown in jail, the Heffley family gets in all sorts of trouble. I don't know what it is about the Heffely family holidays that they remind me so much of my family holidays. From not leaving for the airport in enough time to end up sitting on the plane in the middle of a different family to getting lost at the resort to birds eating our lunch to not be able to get a single decent family photo are all so relatable and not to mention hilarious. I loved this. 5 stars

The Misadventures of Max Crumbly 2: Middle School Mayhem

The Misadventures of Max Crumbly 2: Middle School Mayhem

By Rachel Renée Russell

I really enjoyed this book because there was a lot of drama, my favorite parts were when Max was wearing Ellie's snow costume and when they tied up the robbers together. It really scared me when Ellie's parents walked in on her own the call and almost grounded her. This was a really good book and I would recommend it if you like Dork Diaries.
