Pet
By Akwaeke Emezi
Great book for anyone 11 or older! This is a novel about a girl named Jam who lives in a supposed utopia where all the monsters of a city called Lucille have been defeated by angels, who now keep the city safe. However, when a drop of Jam's blood falls on her mother's painting, it releases a creature that calls itself Pet. And Pet comes with a frightening message: there's a monster in Lucille. And she finds something even scarier- the monster is in her best friend's house.
We Dream of Space
By Erin Entrada Kelly
I loved “We Dream of Space” by Erin Estrada Kelly. Reading the book from three different perspectives, I soon learned to love Cash, Fitch, and Bird for who they are. Heartbroken at Bird’s attempt to try and fix her broken family, feeling bad for Fitch when all he wanted to do was be nice but was pressured to make fun of a girl, and Cash, who is one year behind and doesn’t think he is good as anything. As the story goes on and the plot unfolds you will see the characters unfold as well. Bird looking forward to the space shuttle “Challenger” launching into space only to find out that it exploded 73 seconds after takeoff. Fitch calling Amanda Piper, who really is a nice girl, a fat ugly cow because she calls him Henry instead of his real name. Cash dreaming of being liked by his crush, Penny, only to find out she is dating a “nerd” called Charlie. The three must stick together to face all these hard problems together. This book totally deserves its Newbery Honor Medal in every single way! Have fun reading this book :)
Riding Freedom
By Pam Munoz Ryan
Though almost everyone knows Susan B. Anthony, little people know about Charlotte Darkey Parkhurst. Riding Freedom is based on her life. Born in the early 1800s, Charlotte's parents are killed in a stagecoach accident. She is sent to an orphanage. After her parents died, you would think Charlotte would be terrified of horses, but she loves them. When people say she can't go to the stables anymore, she disguises herself as a boy and runs away from the orphanage. Will She be discovered? I liked this book because it includes facts about a historical figure I didn't even know. This book is perfect for anyone who likes real facts in fiction books.

Abe Lincoln at Last! (Magic Tree House)
By Mary Pope Osborne
Jack and Annie went back in time. They needed to get a feather to undo a spell that Teddy accidentally did on Penny the Penguin. They met Abraham Lincoln. Abe Lincoln played a trick on them - he was acting like a different person. At the end of the book, they still need to go on some more missions to get things to undo the spell. I loved this book so much that I read it three times. 😍 😃 😁
