Saving Montgomery Sole
By Mariko Tamaki
This looks like an extremely good book! My friend read it and claimed that the author put lots adventure and mystery. She ironically was eating a cup of frozen yogurt while reading it one day!
The Firefly Code
By Megan Frazer Blakemore
Have you ever heard of a place named Old Harmonie? Or a road called Firefly Lane? Best friends, Morie, Julia, Benji and Theo live in Old Harmonie on the Firefly Lane. That is where the book, The Firefly Code by Megan Frazer Blakemore and it takes place in the future, that's how it gets its name because the 5 friends are special in a good way and they all live on Firefly Lane and the book is called The Firefly Code so I think that is how it gets its name. Morie, the protagonist, tries to be friends with Ilanna, the antagonist and Ilanna is the antagonist because later on in the book she hurts Morie on an accident but she still hurts her and leaves a bruise on Mori, witch I will explain more of later.They do become friends, and become close. The two girls have a secret place in the woods where they hang out. But one time when Ilanna wanted to show Mori something Ilanna was pulling Mori and she left a handprint on her. Another time Ilanna and Julia were competing with each other and when Julia won Ilanna didn't come out of her house in days. Over time, Mori begins to wonder why Ilanna acts out of character. What she finds out is disturbing but it won’t change the friendship between the two girls. The turning point in my book is when Mori and her friends find something out about Ilanna. I recommend this book to whoever is in 7th grade.
American Ace
By Marilyn Nelson
I read the book American Ace written by Marilyn Nelson. It takes place at Connor’s school and home. This book is unique because it is not written like other books. It’s written like a bunch of poems. Connor’s dad taught him how to drive when he was in Middle School. When Connor’s grandmother died, his dad found a letter from her that said his dad was not his real father. When Conner found out about this he tried to find information about his real grandfather. He did this because he wanted to make his dad happy again. Connor found out that his real grandfather was a pilot during World War II. I think that if you like to read about history then you will like this book. There was some adventure. I think Middle School kids would like this book because Connor was in Middle School.
Falling into the Dragon's Mouth
By Holly Thompson
This book means a lot to me because my teacher's sister wrote this book and I got to meet her. It was so cool. This book is a about a boy named Jason Parker, who transfers to a school in Japan, where he is a year older than his classmates and his group hates him. He is a foreigner to them and they bully him and hit him and make his year in there school the worst. This book tells me that he can get through these hard times and he doesn't tell anyone. He finally makes a friend and helps his town. This book is in a poem style and I really liked it.
