I am reading this as we speak it is a wonderful book and was very well written I had just purchased at the library this morning but I will say because Stevenson is from the united kingdom it was a bit hard to understand with hints of an Irish vocabulary

Island of Fire starts right where Island of Silence left off, and Alex and the rest of the inhabitants of Artimé are shocked that their incredible home just disappeared before their eyes. Everyone is living in a gray shack, surviving on what little food and water they have. Now Alex is their leader, and he has to figure out how to make Artimé come back before it is too late. Meghan and Samheed are still on Warbler Island, in complete darkness and unable to speak because of thorn necklaces sewn into their necks. With all of these burdens and responsibilities on his back, will Alex be able to handle it all? Will the Artiméans with thorn necklaces be able to speak again? In a wonderful third installment of a thrilling and enjoyable series, Island of Fire will leave readers wanting more. Lisa McMann strikes again with another excellent novel. My thoughts: I really enjoyed this book. It was a great addition to the Unwanteds series, and I can not wait for the following books. The description was great in this book, and Lisa does a great job of making the world of The Unwanteds series very vivid and realistic. Like book one and two, I absolutely LOVE the cover art. Owen Richardson is the perfect cover artist for this series. For some reason, even though it was 464 pages long I thought it was too short. Maybe it’s because there aren’t many words on the page, or that when I read it I was on a road trip. Lisa McMann, keep writing, and I will be reading. Can’t wait to see Lisa @ #AustinTeenBookFestival! :-) I truly can not wait to read book 4 (and see the cover and title); my guess for the title is Island of Water. I bet I’ll be like, “Told ya so! :-) Also, I want to thank Emma Sector at Simon and Schuster for sending me an ARC of this book. Thank you so much, Emma!

This is a little sad right now but it still is a great book! I would really recommend this to anyone 7+

The real boy is about a boy named Oscar. Oscar lives on an island in a place called the Barrow, where he is the hand for the greatest magician in the barrow, Caleb. Oscar is shy around many other people. There is also a city near the Barrow called Asteri, but the people living inside the Barrow call it The Shining City. The people in Asteri are supposed to be perfect. The problem in the story is the City children are getting sick. Also, something is stealing magical things from the marketplace. Find out how Oscar deals with these problems by reading the book. I think the lesson of this story is to use your own power to deal wit problems without things like magic to help you. If you like books about magic, this is the perfect book for you.

I love this book

i think the puppies she cares for are as cute as a little button. but i think the goblins that work for Jack Frost should get a lot smarter in order to out smart the fairies.

Hey I still am not done with it but here is a summary so far In the pages 1- 384 of the book The Throne of Fire by Rick Riordan, Sadie and Carter are training young magicians, like them. Sadie and Carter have to find the book of Ra. (There are three parts to it.) The first part is at a museum, the second is in a desk, and the third is where they store mummies. Sadie and Carter went together on the first two, but not in the last. Carter wanted to find Zia, his secret crush. So Sadie went to find the scroll with Walt. Walt is a trainee magician. When they go to find the scroll, Sadie finds out something about Walt. Walt’s family was cursed! His curse was, if he did more magic he could die! When they found the last scroll, Sadie put it together and it said all the steps so Sadie and Carter fallowed them. First they made a portal on top of the Great Pyramid, and then they sailed to the fourth house with some challenges. After that the scrolls lead them to Ra. When they found Ra, he was acting like a baby. There was still one more step but they did not know what it was. When they went back to the lobby, the time was past the eighth hour; that meant they couldn’t go to the eighth house to figure out the next step. So they went to their father and mother. When they got there, Sadie and Carter told them about what happened, but they already knew. Their mom and dad invited a special, yet dangerous guest. The guest was the moon god. I don’t know what’s going to happen, but he is going to help them. My prediction is that the moon god is going to slow the time down to let them into the eighth house.

The crowns game is a great book. Vika is a magical being on a little island somewhere of the coast of russia.

One day Nickolai and his freind Pasha go on a hunt on a little island where they acidenly discoverd Vika practincing her magic. This was bad for Nickolai because he will feel bad for killing her mean while Pasha was becoming quite smitten with Vika and went serching for her. Soon the games began and Nickolai made his first move. Then Vika did, again and again the two used their turns untill a birthday ball was anouced for Pasha and he invited both Vika and Nickolai but he didn't know Nickolai was competing to kill her. The two enchantors met at the ball where they danced and became sort of friends if you could count nice people that have to kill the other who like to be friends and understood each other friends. Then all of a sudden tradgey struck and the crown was passed on to a new ruler and Nickolai got on the bad side of the new ruler. I highly recomend this book and I'm going to stop here because you have to read the book to find out how it ends. I know you probally want to know more but if I continue I will sort of spoil it and I don't want to do that. :)

This book was a thrilling and adventurous story of mischief and betrayal. Hiccup is bullied by Dogs Breath and Snotlout while he is trying to become a pirate. When they find his Great Great Grandpas treasure (the greatest pirate of all Gimberd the Ghastly) it is full of booby traps and on top of that they are betrayed by a someone they trust. Will Hiccup survive? Who betrayed him? IF you want to know you must read the book. I would recommend this book to third graders and above. It has some minor curse words.
