OK first I saw this, great cover. Looked it up. Great ratings on Goodreads, and now I really want to read the sequel to the first one. I will put in a star rating, once I have actually read this book.

I got this book at a thrift store, (my Grammie lets me pick out my own gifts) and I have to wait till Christmas to get my copy, but I really can't wait to read this!

The fourth Tomorrow Girls is full of action, suspense, and new reveals. I love the fantastic ending to this quartet, and I'm already wishing for more.

Maddie and Louisa are best friends who are living in Chicago in the middle of war. It is not a safe place for children to be so Louisa parents are going to send her to a boarding school close to the border of Canada. Maddie parents are both in the war so Maddie pretends she's Louisa's sister so she can go to the boarding school as well. On the ride there they meet a girl named Evelyn. She has a theory that the school is really a secret Alliance(the enemy of the U.S.A) training school. Louisa is not buying it because her and her new friend Rosie love the school. They have cool classes like how to survive in the wild or how to build a bomb or how time start a fire. But Maddie and Evelyn are not buying it. Though it sounds crazy, is it possible that Evelyn is right and her and her friends are being trained to work against their own country? Read the book to find out.!

Brimming with emotion, this book speaks to the heart.

Hunger is the second book in the Gone book series. It again stars many main characters in a town called Perdido Beach after everyone over 15 vanishes. In this book, everyone is now starving due to poor management of food in their town. Additionally, people are not trying to farm to get more food. The leader of the town, Sam, is trying to find food, which is the main plot of the book. I really like the premise of this book, as if I were in the same situation, I would probably do the same thing. This book shows the reality of the situation, and makes me ponder about it. Also, I like this book (and the entire series in general) for having a bit of a sci-fi twist to it, where many people start developing mutant powers due to exposure to a power plant explosion. This leads to some normal people starting to hate the people with mutant powers. There starts to be a bit of an allegory to civil rights issues, which I find very interesting, especially in a young adult book. I feel that the right demographic for this book is young adults from the ages of 12-15. This is because there is a bit of language and inappropriate content in this book (and generally in the series) This book gets a 4 out of 5 from me.

A great book! Definitely a wonderful choice for readers of all ages. Kenny Watson, an African -American boy, embarks on a few adventures, but the real major adventure is when the whole Watson must go south to Birmingham, Alabama. Why, you ask? Byron, Kenny’s older brother had been stirring up a LOT of trouble, such as setting toilet paper on FIRE, and also straightening his hair, so Kenny’s parents think he should stay with Grandma Sands for a while, since Grandma Sands will not accept any form of trouble at all. While in Birmingham, the family notices some extremely discriminatory events (segregation), but the final straw is when a church near Grandma Sands’s is destroyed by a BOMB, so they all decide to head home, even Byron. This book is an awesome realistic-fiction, and it really cracked me up some of the time. Definitely recommended.

The premise of the story is this: a person named Augusta(Gus) writes an extremely long letter to her sister Louie who's in 4th grade. The letter chronicles her journey through the first few months of middle school, where Augusta comes to this educational facility called Meridian, whereas her best friend Layla has gone to a whole other place known as Parkwood. Layla, who is overcome by an overwhelming wave of school spirit, makes a friend only known as "Jolly Jocelyn." Eek, unfortunately, Gus is not able to have this sort of luck at first. She wonders if the Meridian mascot is an armadillo, and grows unsure about her friendship with Layla. Well, eventually, Gus is able to make some friends, including one connoisseur of tomatoes who devours them with voracious delight, one mediocre soccer player, an old acquaintance who becomes a friend, and a human with messy hair. A prominent theme in this book is friendship, which it portrays reasonably well. So good. But I was perturbed by the excessive amount of semicolons in the book; semicolons are not very good; no, they are not. Really, though, 'twas a bit too much, in my opinion. Finally, I would recommend this book for people who are interested in realistic fiction or middle school. 4 stars...

I like the book. It is easy for me to read. I like the adventures they go on. I want to read more books from the author.
