The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Nightime
by Mark Haddon
View in Library Catalog
The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Nightime is a great book. It's about a dog, Wellington who was killed. But it's about more than just that. While investigating the death of this dog he realizes that his father lied to him and that his Mom is still alive. His Mom cheated on his Dad, and then moved in with their neighbors ex-husband. His Dad was so embarressed, that he kept it a secret and said that the Mom had died. But the main character finds out, and then chaos begins. Overall, an amazing book!
Lucky Strikes
by Louis Bayard
View in Library Catalog
This book is about 3 children after their mom dies and their dad is nowhere to be seen so they have to figure out a way to take care of the family buisness all by themselves. The reason why I took those two stars away is because the book didn't feel exciting. There wasn't anything exciting happening that kept me turning the pages. It was a good book, just not to my liking.
My Big Sister Is So Bossy She Says You Can't Read This Book
by Mary Hershey
View in Library Catalog
This is a cute little book about a relationship between two sisters. In the book, Maxey, the older sister, took money from the school treasurey which sends the main character Effie into a full panic trying to get it back. This is a good little book.
Pashmina
by Nidhi Chanani
View in Library Catalog
Pashmina is a very cute, and short, graphic novel. In the book the main character vists India because of a magic shawl that showed her India. A nice book.
Percy Jackson And The Lightning Thief
by Rick Riordan
View in Library Catalog
This book introduces readers such as myself into the world of Greek mythology. I found it really fascinating to hear about different creatures that consisted in these myths. I found myself in a ride of suspense multiple times as I saw the struggles the protagonists have to overcome to succeed. After I finished the book I couldn't wait to read the sequel. I would recommend this book for grades 6-8.
Are You Scared Darth Vader
by Adam Rex
View in Library Catalog
I loved this book so, so, so much because it's Star Wars and I like what Darth Vader says in the book.
Wings Of Fire Dragonslayer
by Tui T. Sutherland
View in Library Catalog
This is like one of the best books because wings of fire point of view is from dragon but know I get to see the point of view from humans.
Hour Of The Bees
by Lindsay Eagar
View in Library Catalog
I give Hour Of The Bees 3 stars. It was an okay book. The reason I didn't really like it was because it felt like nothing was moving. It felt like we were stuck at the same point in the plot. Nothing exciting was happening. The characters would get up, do their chores, talk about moving, and talk about the Grandpa and how crazy he is. It was like the same thing happened every day! The ending was pretty good though. It was very eventful, dramatic, and heartwarming (that is why it earned 3 stars). Not sure if I would recommend this.
Animal Farm
by George Orwell
View in Library Catalog
I would recommend this book for grades 8-12. I would also definitely look into the background history and stories behind the inspiration of Orwell writing this book, as it has definitely made the reading experience much better. I truly loved reading this book, and enjoyed the humor as well as plot twists of this book.
