Otis and Will Discover the Deep: The Record-Setting Dive of the Bathysphere
By Barb Rosenstock
In this very exciting book, you will travel to the deep beyond with Otis Barton + William Beebe and see many odd creatures. Will the journey go smoothly or will something go wrong? Join the duo as they discover the deep. I would recommend this for ages 7+ I liked how there was a bit of background info for both of them because it was very cool. This was super fun to read and if you liked this book then I would also recommend The Hen Who Sailed Around the World.
20,000 Leagues Under the Sea: The Young Collector's Illustrated Classics/Ages 8-12
By Jules Verne
This is an amazing version of the real book. It is a great exploration book and read aloud. It tells stories from a crazy ship and is an amazing book for 2nd graders.
The Island Stallion's Fury (Black Stallion)
By Walter Farley
this book is a wonderful story about a boy named Steve and his horse. The main conflict in the book is the fight between a man and a wild stallion. And of course, the stallion won. But it is also about the unlikely friendship between a boy and his horse and the cruelties that can come from being in a herd of horses.
Obsidio (The Illuminae Files)
By Amie Kaufman, Jay Kristoff
great ending to a very interesting series. i love how the books were put together so that it was not only text, but also files, reports, and other communication.
Gemina (The Illuminae Files)

Maximum Ride: The Manga, Vol. 5
By James Patterson
Okay, so the first thing I'm going to tell you about this book is that it is very addicting. ( Like for the whole series is so far). ( Angel and Gasman are soo cute!) ( My favorite character is Maximum Ride. I also like Fang a lot.) If you like books or series that are very addicting, exciting, and full of fantasy characters ( Werewolves, humans with wings, etc) then you will defiantly love this series.
Maximum Ride: The Manga, Vol. 9
By James Patterson
Loved it.... It was exciting.... I can't believe that Nudge stayed behind at that school... though... She might be kidnapped. ( Even though the school is supposed to be safe and everything... I'm pretty sure that it would be easy for them... the scientists... or that new guy who shot Maximum Ride.. ) But who knows....
Rise of the Wolf (Mark of the Thief #2)
By Jennifer A. Nielsen
The last book (Mark of the Thief) left us on a horrible cliffhanger, and just when you thought Nic's life couldn't get any worse than that, it does. In the form of a deal that will seal his and Rome's fate forever, a chariot race in which he can't use his magic, or someone he cares very dearly about will die, a grandfather who wants the magic of the bulla to himself, the reappearance of his mother, a lot of other curses from the gods (as if he isn't already cursed enough), oh yeah, and a dragon that wants to rip him into shreds. Will Nic ever get his freedom, his family, and his magic? Whenever he gets one, he is forced to give up another. Too bad he may not live long enough for us to find out...
The Wanderer
By Sharon Creech
So this book was VERY disappointing. Sharon Creech's books were always good but this was an exception. My sister warned me not to read it because she said that it was boring and now I'm sorry that I didn't listen. The plot was really (was there even a plot?) hard to figure out and everything just dragged. You couldn't feel the character's feelings very well. Once I pick up a book I have to finish it. I don't know why. It's just like an instinct. I wish I don't have that kind of instinct or whatever you call it. But I would NOT recommend this, unless you want to be bored.
The Icebound Land (Ranger's Apprentice #3)
By John Flanagan
Ranger51
Before I write this, I'd just like to first of all start out with saying that THIS IS MY FAVORITE SERIES OF ALL TIME!!! Book 3 (this one) and 4 of this series were so... just crazyyyy!!!! Like it was so intense and so like I NEEDED to get past certain parts and just needed them to find Will and Evanlyn!!! AGH it was INSANE!!! But it was really good, too! - I read the first 8 books in the summer (with a crazy schedule due to ballet and vacation and camps and stuff) and literally gobbled books 1-4 up!! I LOVED it!! Seriously, read these books!!! Just so much suspense and it was just SO intense!!!
