Diary of a Minecraft Zombie Book 5: School Daze (Volume 5)
By Zack Zombie
This book is funny and for some reason he is at school and that is funny to me because zombie don't go to school the game is better but the book is still good and I love the game and this book.
Once Upon the End (Half Upon a Time)
By James Riley
If you haven't read Half Upon a Time and Twice upon a time, this story will NOT make any sense. But it is the most epic grande finale I have ever read.
Cardboard
By Doug TenNapel
What I liked about this book was because it showed how all of the characters actually felt and it was funny the illustrations were good and just the book in general was really good I liked that it showed if you believe in things they might come true which was really good because I have not read many books like that an those are the books I like to read too.
Firelight (Amulet #7)
By Kazu Kibuishi
Title: Amulet Firelight Author: Kazu Kabuishi Genre: Sci fi I would give this a 3/5 rating because in my opinion how they switch from situation to situation can be annoying for me. Whoever some of the parts are good for example when Emily turns into a bird, that's cool! Secondly this book has some interesting parts like when the shadows control the fish and they pierce through the glass. I would recommend this book for 3rd+ because if a 2nd grader read this they might not understand it or think it's real.
The Last Hope (Warriors: Omen of the Stars No. 6)
By Erin Hunter
The last book of the final series of Warrior Cats. This book is full of adventures and danger, with sadness and despair. With all of the four clans uniting to battle with the dark forest, under Firestar's lead, the four clans unite as one and defeated the dark forest's evil cats. I really admire Firestar because usually a kitty pet is not respected and treated really mean, however Firestar was treated well and other cats respect him as a true clan born, and other cats would want to follow him even the other clan leaders. I really liked this series from the starting to the end, even though it wasn't considered a happy ending. Firestar's character shows the life of some people work hard to earn their spot in society and get respected, when they started with nothing., however if you are willing to try you may succeed.
Among the Impostors (Shadow Children Book 2)
By Margaret Peterson Haddix
Have you ever imagined being an illegal third child? In addition to being an illegal child you have to learn how to blend in with new surrounding. Well the book Among the Imposters by Margaret Peterson Haddix shows just that. “Among the Imposters” is the second book in a series called Shadow Children. Luke Garner or should I say Lee Grant, all of his life he’s been hiding avoiding the population police. Population police are officers who encourage the law of illegal third children to help population levels decrease. They also invade people’s homes searching for exneys (illegal third children), executing the third children when they figure that they are actually third children. Luke was sent to the school of Hendricks with a fake I.D playing the role of a boy named Lee Grant. Hendricks School of Boys is a windowless school with brutal students who disrespect Luke, and the teachers are absolutely oblivious. One day Luke discovers a door that leads outside. Will Luke discover what lies outside of the Hendricks school? Will his question unfold? You have to read Among the Imposters to find out. I recommend this book or series for people in 5-8 grade who enjoy exciting thrillers because I feel that this has a pretty deep content. I also feel they might not understand the meaning, and purpose of the book or series. I hope you enjoy reading this book as much as I did.
Bad News (The Bad Books)
By Pseudonymous Bosch
I just finished a book called "Bad Luck" by Pseudonymous Bosch. The genre is fantasy because there are fantasy creatures in the book. I rated it " just right" on a scale of 1 to 5 of easy, going up to challenging. I think I would recommend this book for grades 4 to 6. I really liked this book, but it is the third in a series, so you should start with the first two which are really good too.
Anne of Avonlea (Second Book in the Anne of Green Gables Series.)
By L M Montgomery
This book... This book is such a beloved classic for such good reason. It was so full of imagery and brilliant plot that I was sad to reach the end. One thing I will say though, is that Avonlea seems just a little too perfect. Aside from the one disaster and some minor scrapes, everything happens so that life flows idylly. Other than that, the book was written splendidly with lots of care. Even though this book is suitable for readers of all ages, there are many profound quotes and little gems that may not be picked up by a younger crowd. It just refreshes and makes me happy every time I read an "Anne of" book because they're so wholesome and gracefully written. The author, L.M. Montgomery is a literary genius. I can't wait to follow Anne along on her journey.
The Terrible Thing That Happened to Barnaby Brocket
By John Boyne
A whimsical, strange, and absurd book this is, about a child with floating abilities. Barnaby was born on a Friday at 12 a.m. and has floated for many years. His parents are in quite a situation: they try sending him to The Graveling Academy for Unwanted Children but it burns down in a massive fire that nearly kills him. They send him to the neighborhood school; strangely, he gets in the newspapers for first being the 10 millionth person to climb the Sydney Harbor Bridge, and subsequently for his quaint floating condition. The two parents agree to get rid of Barnaby, and it is his mother who finally cuts off his sandbags, which normally prevent him from floating, and leaves him to float to his doom. Now the story starts getting interesting: Barnaby is picked up by two women who own a coffee farm in Brazil. The rest of the book is spent detailing Barnaby's attempts to get back home to Sydney. Somehow, things keep happening, thus ruining his chances of getting on the flight to Sydney. This book is so weird that it was funny: the fact that the principal would allow a teacher to take their students to climb a bridge is unbelievable. Additionally, the author's humor was fun to read. However, the book was repetitive, stressing the same simple theme again and again, which, of course, is "be yourself". Many things don't scientifically make sense: for example, it is stated somewhere that Barnaby floated up to a spacecraft–this does not make sense because he would have died before that. Also, it is just frustrating how in that same exact chapter the astronauts keep saying "We are in middle space". There is no such thing as middle space and it means that the author does not know a lot about astronomy. But all in all, THE TERRIBLE THING THAT HAPPENED TO BARNABY BROCKET was one of the better books I've read.
Among the Enemy (Shadow Children)
By Margaret Peterson Haddix
The book "Among the Enemy" is an enthralling novel that always kept me at the edge of my seat. The main character is an illegal child. Yet he sacrifices himself to save his best friends and people like him. He is met with challenges and overcomes them with the help of friends of all ages. I highly recommend this realistic fiction story and I hope you will too.
