In this special edition novel of the beloved Thea Stilton series, the Thea Sisters are off to Paris! They're prepared for a nice, long, relaxing vacation - but what they receive is far from their expectations. First, on their plane ride, a storm jags the airplane up and down, scaring the cheese out of the mouselets. Then, when they arrive in Paris to live with Colette's fashion-designer friend Julie, they realize that Julie's designs have been stolen! Though their "relaxation" has been tainted, the Sisters are determined to track down the design thief in time to showcase Julie's clothing in her school fashion show. Fun and exciting, this book is great for younger audiences and people interested in interactive books.

I think this was the best book in the whole series because I feel Toriyama and Toyotarou Put a lot of work into this book and made it where it does not show just the end of the tournament of power but the beginning of the galactic prisoner arc in further books about dragon ball

I thoroughly enjoyed the reading experience of Talons of Power, never finding myself uninterested. That being said, I think this is definitely the weakest book in the second arc and most of the book can be classified as filler. 3 stars. Before I get into my issues, let me preface this by saying I adore the Wings of Fire books and consider this one of my all time favorite middle grade series. My critiques of this book do not change that, and 3 stars is a positive rating for me. Other than the last 20 pages or so, this book is the same thing happening over and over again. Turtle follows Darkstalker, waiting for him to do something evil, Darkstalker doesn’t. Repeat for 200 pages. Turtle is a very…passive character. He spends nearly the entire book “invisible” and just hanging out observing everyone else. He rarely takes matters into his own hands, which I recognize is part of his character but it makes him so much less interesting compared to the other main characters like Moon or Peril. Turtle is so infrequently involved in the story that he didn’t even feel like the main character. Most of this book is slow and repetitive. A lot of the plot serves to bridge the gap to the series finale. Though I was let down by this penultimate novel, I still enjoyed reading it. I love this series and world. The characters of this arc are extremely endearing. I’ve been reading Tui’s writing since I was very young, so I’m always happy to jump into her stories. I’m still super hyped for the finale. There are so many ways this could go, and I can’t wait to see. Not to mention I think Qibli is the main character of the final book, and he is one of my favorites!

I chose a three out of five rating because the book took a very long time to have only a little bit of action. But, once you got like three fourths of the way through, it picked up and was hard to put down. I also gave it that rating because I had a hard time focusing on the book when I was reading it. This book was pretty interesting, though. I’d never thought of some people as anti-machinists, and I don't understand how that would ever happen to people in the future. Lastly, I would recommend it to anyone from the age of ten through thirteen. So, basically fourth grader’s through seventh graders.

So Vicky Austins summer begins: Her ex-boyfriend (who wants her back) capsized in a sailboat, and a close-family friend saves him, but dies.His son turns to her seeking comfort and at the same time, her brothers co-worker asks her if she wants to come and swim with baby dolphins. each of these men are demanding her attention even when she is struggling with the knowledge that her be-loved grandfather has leukimia. She has too much on her plate but is too nice to say back off or no to anyone. How will she ever get out of this mess?

I just finished Wings of Fire, Escaping Peril, a fantasy by Tui T. Sutherland, for the eighth time (It's still awesome!) and Wings of Fire is the best series ever! It is about a SkyWing named Peril who is a firescales (meaning that her scales are as hot as fire so she is super dangerous) and was very loyal to Queen Scarlet of the SkyWings. Until she met Clay. In the first book she is a Scarlet loyalist but then Scarlet Imprisons Clay and his friends and she falls in love with Clay. This makes her realize how evil Scarlet is and how horribly she treats her prisoners. Anyway now, in the eighth book Peril is no longer loyal to Scarlet and will do anything that she could ever possibly do to protect Clay. After Scarlet threatens Jade Mountain Academy, Peril realizes that the only thing that Clay wants, the only thing that will make Clay feel like he and his friends are safe, even if he will never admit it, is for Queen Scarlet to be killed. So Peril sets out to find the missing Queen and to kill her. Peril’s plan was to kill Scarlet immediately, without letting Scarlet talk her out of it. But things don't quite go as planned…

Ninth Ward is a really interesting book about a girl ( Lanesha ) and her foster mother ( Mama Ya-Ya ). Lanesha was orphaned at birth and was fostered because her rich Uptown family is scared of her. Around the middle of the book hurricane Katrina strikes, but Mama Ya-Ya and Lanesha are stuck, unable to get out of New Orleans. I would definitely recommend this book for ages 9-12. Overall a really good book for people who like cliffhangers.

"I promise, heart to snap." Can you imagine a world where animals roamed without fear, but they were divided among two sides? On one side are the Wild Ones, consisting of rats, weasels, raccoons and pretty much everything in between - but on the other side are the bloodthirsty Flealess, People's pets who aren't as cuddly and soft as you imagined. Both sides are about to get in a bitter war about possession over Ankle Snap Alley, the most rundown, Slivered Sky-reminiscent place you could imagine - but still, a home for the Wild Ones. Meanwhile, a young, carefree raccoon named Kit thinks he's the farthest away as possible from Slivered Sky life. His parents are historians, travelling all over the world to find artifacts related to Azban, the first Raccoon. But when his parents die at the hands of bloodhounds, Kit must follow his mother's last words - he must protect the Footprint of Azban at all costs and find his uncle Rik. Kit doesn't know why his parents had to die protecting the Footprint of Azban - for all he knows, it's just an artifact, nothing important! But suddenly Kit finds out a shocking secret about his parents and the Footprint of Azban.. and suddenly, Kit finds out that he's the only one who can uncover the secret that gives Ankle Snap Alley to the Wild Ones.. but will he die at the hands of the Flealess trying to uncover it? An almost worthy successor to the great adventure novels that were Redwall, this novel has a big heart and a great bit of adventure. In one word, I think this book is refreshing. A fresh breath of spring air in an alley, you could say. I love how this book takes the "animal" genre towards a new direction, focusing not on dogs, cats, and the like, but on other animals that deserve the spotlight for a change! That being said, I love how this book has such a diverse cast of animals! Another thing I love about this book is the unlikely (at the beginning) friendship of Kit and Eeni. I'm also relieved there isn't a romantic relationship between any of the characters (except Kit's parents, of course), because it's honestly becoming cliche. I loved how their friendship was genuine, not some plot twist where one betrays the other, because honestly I've read too many of those books lately.. The character development and details really pulled me into this world of ragtag animals.. I think that the only thing that negatively surprised me was the surprising amount of violence (don't be turned away from this book because of that, there's only a little), I think I was expecting a feel-good, family book but there was actual hunting/war/violence and even a death at the beginning (not too many details) But what can you say - this book really tugged at my heart with its adventurous spirit. This book delved into a cutting-edge storyline.. but it also explored the true feelings of its characters, and that might be why I loved this book.
