Here’s my review for the ARC I received of New Lands. Thank you Penguin for providing me the ARC! Enjoy! After Egg’s standdown to Pembroke, he is going away. He knows Pembroke will try to find him and get the map from him, so he travels with Guts to Pella Nonna in the New Lands. In just three weeks, Guts has become a famous guitar player whom everyone knows, but that is proving to be a distraction to finding the treasure before Pembroke does. But then something happens after meeting an Okalu girl that leads to a major turn of events; and they get kidnapped. In a fast-paced, adventurous sequel, will Pembroke make Egg give up the map, or will Egg resist? Will the impossible happen, where Egg finds his family? Rodkey pens a delightful read with thrilling action, and does not let readers down. What I thought about it: Geoff Rodkey amazes me once again. Once again, the action is unstoppable in this sequel, and the description is very vivid, painting a bright picture in your head. The cover art for this sequel in my opinion is amazing, and I think it is better than the first book. New Lands is pretty much a wild goose chase, with Egg, Millicent, Guts and Kira being chased by all of Pembroke’s men and the Moku tribe. I can not stress enough how much I love Geoff Rodkey’s writing, it is just…WOW! I mean, I don’t have any other words to describe it, really. I also loved the twists and turns in the plot, and they just catch you off guard. Geoff Rodkey; KEEP WRITING!

This is a super fun book to read all about pirates. You will learn the truths and lies of piracy. Read at your own risk!

I just watched this movie again recently. This book is based on the movies. It is very saddening but also joyful. The cartoon is sadly less known or talked about along with Pinocchio. This is the same thing for the live action and Cinderella live action .

West by Edith Pattou is the second book that comes after the amazing East book. I really enjoyed both of these books and this one especially was just so untterly incredible! I loved the adventure, the courage that the main character, Rose, showed, the excitement, the love and the beauty of the whole story all together. I would totally recommend it to anyone who loves amazing stories about journies into the unknown!

West of the Moon by Margi Preus is a really good book that is sort of a play on the folktale "East of the Sun, West of the Moon." It is about two girls who try to run away from their evil goatman master. It's really amazing and I really liked reading it. "I want to do what's right. But how can I, when I am faced with only impossible choices?” ― Margi Preus, West of the Moon

This is a nice book that shows that everybody can accomplish something if they want. One boy in an Indian tribe can not do things other people can do, so he goes up a mountain everyday and tries to paint the sunrise to see the future of everyone.He keeps trying and can never find the right color. Will he ever be able to find the right colors, or will he remain empty-handed everytime.

This book is great! It is the guide to the Disney villains. I like how they have The Queen Of Hearts in it. I would recommend this book.

Splintered was absolutely amazing and the second book, Unhinged, was just as spectacular, if not more. The descriptions were so vivid and the characters haunting. The relationships are so well woven that I didn't mind for the first time in a while that there was a love triangle. I've reread the first two book at least five times each in the last two years. A. G. Howard has landed her book at the top of my 'Books That Have Changed My Life' shelf... There's only two other books... I can't wait for the third book, Ensnared, and I pray that A. G. keeps writing more and more and more for years to come!

The classic story of Beauty and the Beast, infused with modern times. Kyle Kingston, a pretty boy with a famous news anchor dad is turned into a beast, due to his ego. In the harsh environment known as school, looks do matter, but what do they say behind your back. I just hope you didn't miss the beauty boat. With his twisted attitude, he'll have to do something he has never done before, be nice. Can he win the girls heart with that face and personality, or is there something deeper within him?

The Sleeper and the Spindle is a book written by Neil Gaiman. In this book, the perspective is of Snow White! It is near her wedding to the prince, but a spell is going through the kingdom, a spell that makes everyone in it's path fall asleep. Not wanting the spell to ruin her wedding, she decides to get to the bottom of it. Will she stop the spell in time? Read the book to find out! I gave this book 4 stars becuase even though the plots were really hard to understand, the illustrations were good!
