Who Was Selena?

Who Was Selena?

By Max Bisantz, Kate Bisantz, Who HQ

This story about Selena was told in this book. I learned so much about Selena to her life and to her death. It's an emotional and a happy book at the same time about Selena and how young she was to how old she got. Taught me a lot!

That's Not What Happened

That's Not What Happened

By Kody Keplinger

This book was an interesting look at the importance of religion and community after a tragedy. It is a great book about the current issues with school shootings and it also includes LGBTQ+ characters and a muted romantic story line.

Greenglass House

Greenglass House

By Kate Milford

Milo Pine looks forward to spending his winter break drinking hot chocolate and hanging out with his parents at Greenglass House, the inn they run. But no such luck. As soon as Milo finishes his homework, the doorbell rings—and in comes a strange guest named Mr. Vinge. Milo’s disappointed...but one guest’s not such a big problem, is it? Turns out, he’s wrong. Soon, guests are pouring in through the doors of Greenglass House, each with their own mysterious reasons for coming to the inn. There’s Georgie Moselle, the blue-haired girl who loves photography; Mrs. Hereward and Dr. Goverwine, the total opposites who are always arguing; and Clem Candler, a cheerful lady who claims to be a thief. When things start to get fishy, and a mystery plot set up by one of the guests sucks everyone in, Milo must find out what’s happening—and fast. Along with his new friend Meddy, he discovers more secrets—and answers to his deepest questions. Can he and Meddy solve the mystery of who has been stealing from the guests and framing them? Read this book to find out! Overall, I liked this book, and rate it 4/5 stars. I recommend Greenglass House for anyone who doesn’t mind a little slowness, but likes a good mystery book.

Mustaches for Maddie

Mustaches for Maddie

By Chad Morris, Shelly Brown

(Thanks DOGObooks for choosing me to win this book) *Deep breath* Welcome to my first DOGObooks book review of 2018. Mustaches for Maddie is a great book. It made me want to laugh, and cry, at the same time. Maddie is such a brave and imaginative person in hard times, and makes this book one of the best (It made its way onto my list of Top Books). This is the first book I've read like this. It's really, really good. I highly recommend this book for you :) You NEED to read it. Trust me, you won't be able to put it down (OR at least I wasn't able to). The only thing possibly wrong with this book is that - - well, she "Goes off on a tangeant" as a character in another book would say. She's talking about potatoes, porkiporasauruses (Not sure how to spell/say that), red hair, and I think you get my point. That shouldn't deter you though! As I said earlier, this is a GREAT BOOK. -UniPuppy reviews OUT

Claudia and the World's Cutest Baby (Babysitters Club)

Claudia and the World's Cutest Baby (Babysitters Club)

By Ann M. Martin

this book was amazing! not the best babysitters club book i have read, but i do recommend it for any babysitter club friends! its about claudia, she is having a newborn cousin! she becomes her godmother. claudias duty as a godmother is to spend every second of spare time she has with her, right? claudia starts to worry that she's spending too much time with her that her aunt and uncle don't like her anymore! if you like a book with surprises this one is for you. something i have to say about this though is that there isn't a lot of babysitting besides for journal writing. so if you are a fan of books with loads of babysitting, maybe pick a another book.

The Strange Case of Origami Yoda (Origami Yoda #1)

The Strange Case of Origami Yoda (Origami Yoda #1)

By Tom Angleberger

I origionally bought this book for my brother's birthday,but I decided to read it anyways. I really liked it because it wasn't all about some crazy intergalactic Star Wars adventure or some difficult Origami guide, like I thought it would be. It takes place in an average, boooring middle school. The main characters are a group of some dorky, some annoying, and some popular sixth-graders, and one in particular, Dwight, who is not in any of those categories. Dwight would just be classified as one thing: unbelievably wierd and totally bonkers. He walks around with a finger puppet that looks like Yoda that gives out advice. Some of the kids believe in Origami Yoda because of all his great advice, but one kid, Harvey, refuses to believe in Origami Yoda even though his life's a mess. The other kids can't decide if Origami Yoda is real and tapping into the force, or if Dwight is just trying to make them look like fools for making fun of him, so this is the case file to figure out if Origami Yoda is worth listening to. This book is absolutely FULL of laughs!!
