Fablehaven-Brandon Mull

Fairies, demons, giant cows! Oh my! These are just a few of the things you will find in Fablehaven by Brandon Mull. This is a wonderful fantasy book about Kendra and Seth Sorenson, and their adventure to Fablehaven, a magical preserve. To find out all of the adventures they have as they try save Fablehaven, after they break the rules and release evil, you have to read this fascinating book. I definitely give this book five out of five stars, and you'll know why when you read it.

Faking 19 - Alyson Noel

The title of the book I read was Faking 19 and was written by Alyson Noel. I recommend this book because it is very funny and also explains what someone from the real world would do. The teenager was put in some situations that I could be in and solved them in ways that I would normally do. BB

The Red Pyramid- Rick Riordan

Anybody out there like Egyptian mythology? If so, then The Red Pyramid by Rick Riordan is the perfect book for you. This is the first book in The Kane Chronicles. Personally, I don't know a whole lot about Egyptian mythology, so I was a little lost while reading this book. But I liked how The Red Pyramid was jam-packed with adventure and action. In this book, Carter and Sadie Kane go on a typical trip with their father to the British Museum. Everything was completely normal until their father blew up the Rosetta Stone and released five of the most powerful Egyptian gods. Everything went downhill from there. I'd give this book four out of five stars.

Queen of Babble - Meg Cabot

Meg Cabot's books are always great, and this one was no exception. Lizzie Nichols can't keep her mouth shut and when she flies to England to stay with the love of her life (which she has only met a few times), things get complicated. Because she can not keep her mouth shut, she winds up in many bad situations, but a few good ones too. I would give this book five stars .

Just Take My Heart- Mary Higgins Clark

This book is classic Mary Higgins Clark: adventure, mystery, and suspense... but I was disappointed in the book. It had such a long build up and then seemed to end very quickly. Emily is an assistant district attorney who is hired to put Gregg Aldrich in jail for killing his successful actress wife. The only proof they have is from a career criminal though. Emiliy doesn't believe that he did it but must prove that he did. I would give this book 4 out of 5 stars.

Spin Control - Niki Burnham

Valerie moves to England with her dad when her mom and dad get divorced because her mom is seeing someone else. Well she meets Prince Georg and starts to date him. But when she goes back home to Virginia for winter break she starts dating the boy of her dreams, David, whom she has dreamed about dating since Kindergarten. But when she starts dating David she feels like she is cheating on Georg. So when her mom tells her she has the choice of staying in Virginia or going back to England she really starts to realize what true love is all about. I liked this book because it was different.

Dairy Queen - Catherine Murdock Gilbert

D.J. is flunking English in school because she has to take care of her family's farm. Her dad broke his hip so D.J. has to take over plus she finds out that a family friend is sending over a boy, named Brian, to help over the summer. Well Brian doesn't have the best attitude about working on a farm. D.J. doesn't enjoy it at first either but she soon comes to realize that maybe working with Brian isn't that bad after awhile. But then she realizes that she is falling in love with him and that changes a lot of things. D.J. decides to start playing football and soon realizes that she will be playing against Brian's team. I definitely liked this book and would recommend it to others.

Shift - Jennifer Bradbury

This book is about two high school friends, Win and Chris, who decide after their senoir year to take a bike trip across America. Their starting point is in West Virginia. Their halfway point is Seattle and their ending point is back home. When Chris returns without Win, the trouble starts and the FBI gets involved. I liked this book because there was a lot of suspense.

Far North - Will Hobbs

In this book Gabe Rogers goes to visit his dad in Canada. He ends up taking a scenery tour on an airplane while he is up in Canada. During the ride the plane has a malfunction and goes down in the middle of nowhere. This book tells about what they do to survive and get back home. I liked this book because there was never a boring part in it. There was plenty of action and adventure the whole time.

George's Marvelous Medicine - Roald Dahl

Dahl has done it again! The Chocolate Factory author has made a book about a boy, his wicked grandmother and 1 potion. His granny treats him bad and George decides to edit her "medicine."
I recommend it to magic lovers and fantasy fanatics!!!
