The Land of Stories: The Wishing Spell

The Land of Stories: The Wishing Spell

By Chris Colfer

The Land of Stories is one of the best books I have read so far, and that's saying a lot, because I read all the time. :D Anyways, it's about two twins- Alex and Conner- who are different in many ways. Alex is the smart kid and Conner is the lazy kid. They travel through a book into a realm called 'the Land of Stories', which is the FAIRYTALE world! They meet many new friends and discover shocking secrets. This is the real-deal book- great plot, realistic characters, and the thing I like most are all the COINCIDENCES and how you actually get to know what happens to the fairytale characters after the story! Reading this, I just found out so many things that I've be longing to know about fairytales! It explains everything- why the villians did what, and this book is only telling about a small, small section of fairytales! Don't forget though- it's a GREAT book that you MUST read or you will seriously miss out! I mean, why isn't this more popular? It totally crushes the Hunger Games in terms of awesomeness! Anyways, Chris Colfer is a great author. I've already read all the 5 books, so instead of rating each one I'll just say that YOU REALLY SHOULD READ ALL 5 BOOKS!!! Everything makes perfect sense! There are explanations for every, single, action that every single fairytale character has ever done! All wrote into 5 great books that have great action, drama, and twists! (I'm still waiting for the 6th book.) And YES, the series gets better and better after every book! :D

The Battle of the Labyrinth (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, Book 4)

The Battle of the Labyrinth (Percy Jackson and the Olympians, Book 4)

By Rick Riordan

I rate this book a 5/5 because it has a VERY INTERESTING plot, amazing characters, and it's even a bit funny as well! And the theme is awesome as well, I mean, greek mythology? SO cool! I definitely recommend this book to all ages (except like, preschoolers or kindergarteners of course)!! But there is one flaw.... When you start reading it, you'll want to read more and more and more! XD! So, that is why you must read percy jackson immediately!!! And guess what, if you finish this series, there's even the other series: Percy jackson and the heroes of olympus!!! And others as well that all relate to greek mythology! Like The Kane Chronicles, Magnus Chase, and Trials of Apollo!

The Wearle (The Erth Dragons #1)

The Wearle (The Erth Dragons #1)

By Chris d'Lacey

The Wearle are a group of dragons coming from their home planet to investigate Erth. They want to find out what happened to the colony before them. The Wearle quickly establish their dominance with the men(a tribe called Kaal) and take over the mountain. They also create a scorch line as a border. Meanwhile the Kaal hate the dragons and the fear and boundaries. But Ren is different from his people. He is fascinated by the dragons, and wants to learn about them. One day Ren figures out a way to cross the scorch line safely. Gabriel is a blue dragon who lost his father from the first colony. One day he is fighting for the right to be the guardian of Grystina’s eggs when a rockslide starts and kills her inside. Gabriel is immediately blamed, and one of his punishments is the loss of honor of his name. Now he is Abrial and must work as a sweeper along the scorch line. One of Grystina’s dragonlets survived-the other is missing, taken for dead. Soon Garbriel and Ren will find themselves crossing paths in a way neither could have ever imagined. It might bring their family together. Or it might destroy them all. The book has different terms for many things, and the groups have different terms for each other. For example, Homs are humans(from the dragon's point of view), and skylar's are dragons(from the human’s point of view). At the beginning of this book I had a lot of trouble keeping up, and understanding what was going on because I didn’t understand certain terms, or exactly how the dragons ranked and that sort of stuff. However, now I know about two important resources that I wish I had known about before. At the beginning of the book there is a list of characters and a short description. Then at the back there is a glossary of many of the terms used. I would recommend that you reference both while you read. I also love that the point of view changes. That way we get the different points of the story, which is especially important in a story like this where there are multiple species. I am very excited to read the next book, and I can’t wait to see what happens with these characters! I recommend this book to dragon lovers, and fantasy lovers and fans of Chris D’Lacey. I rate this book 5 out of 5 stars.

The Dark Hills Divide: The Land of Elyon, Book 1

The Dark Hills Divide: The Land of Elyon, Book 1

By Patrick Carman

I read this for the first time a long time ago, and i just finished reading it again for the second time with my little sister. this book is very interesting and it has a very eerie feel to it at times. I enjoy the writing style of it, as it's very descriptive in a way that's not too clunky or hard to read. Would definitely recommend for anyone 9+ who enjoys a slightly eerie fantasy!

Scythe (Arc of a Scythe)

Scythe (Arc of a Scythe)

By Neal Shusterman

The future has been very prosperous. Humans have conquered nature. The government has been replaced by a powerful A.I. called the Thunderhead. Death and disease have been eradicated. In a world where there is nothing else to discover, people live just for the pleasure of it. However, manual death must replace natural death. Thus, the Scythedom is born, consisting of people experienced in the art of killing. The time for new scythes roll around and Citra and Rowan are chosen as apprentices of the same scythe. In an unfortunate turn of events, Citra and Rowan, who have come to like each other's presence very much, are made to fight each other for the name of the scythe. However, there is a catch. The newly welcomed scythe has to kill the loser. This book has quickly become one of my favorites. This is the first book in a series written by Neal Shusterman, called “Arc Of Scythe.” Neal Shusterman is an efficient writer. He writes the story in such a way that it embraces you and pulls you into the book. My goal was to read 100 pages a day but this book fascinated me so much that sometimes I would end up reading 170 pages. It is the first book in the series and I must say, it is written well. The story has a fair amount of unexpected plot twists. Sometimes I just keep reading and forget that I am reading a book, not a living one. The sentences are not hard to understand either. Fairly simple sentences. I also saw some new words but was easily able to figure them out by reading the sentence. I would recommend this book to people above the age of eleven. Children below the age of eleven won't understand it fully as there is a lot of death and some swearing. Science fiction and dystopian lovers must read this book as you cannot take your eyes off of it. If you plan on reading small series I would recommend you start with this one. Overall, it’s a great and amazing book. 5/5 star.
