The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate

The Evolution of Calpurnia Tate

By Jacqueline Kelly

This was an interesting story about a young girl in the early 1900's who is learning her place in the world. In this story Calpurunia is the only girl in a family with six brothers. As she comes to understand her grandfather as a teacher, she also struggles with her mother. Her mother wants her to become a domesticated wife, who knows how to sew, cook, knit, etc. But Calpurinia is not interested in these things at all. She just wants to study science and nature with her grandfather, and maybe become a scientist herself, not a housewife. As Calpurnia tries to keep her family together she learns lessons of trust and self-confidence, and being who you really are inside. I recommend this book to older people, however there aren't any action scenes, and some people may become bored with the storyline if they do not enjoy this type of book, setting in the past.

Fake Blood

Fake Blood

By Whitney Gardner

This is a hilarious read with many unexpected twists and turns, yet I didn't get what the overall message was. To me it was just a one-time read if you want something light and easy that you don't have to think about. When the main character AJ goes back to school for 6th grade he feels left behind. In his trio of friends he is the only one that didn't grow, the only one that didn't do anything exciting over the summer, and he still has the same crush he has had for years, and his crush still doesn't notice him...........but maybe this year will be different. One thing AJ knows about Nia, who according to AJ is the most perfect girl on the planet, is that she is totally into vampires. AJ hatches a far-fetched plan for him to dress up as a vampire to get Nia to notice him......and it backfires........badly. He goes all out, with messed up hair, sunken in eyes, fangs, sunglasses, and blood on his teeth, and Nia definitely notices him. He catches Nia's bus and when they get off on the same stop, Nia corners him in the woods, and AJ learns that she is a SLAYER. This book will be a wonderful read for kids who like graphic novels, coming-of-age books, or easy, light reads. Definitely read this book to find out the result of AJ's crazy plan, and Nia's dream.

The Mermaid's Mirror

The Mermaid's Mirror

By L. K. Madigan

loved this book but to bad the author died before she could write a sequel, tons of people were left hanging to see what happens between Nix and lena and if she sees her mother again or if nix cant hold i his feelings for lena anymore and decides to go to shore and spend the rest of his life with lena ... ug i wish someone would just decide to write the sequel for her.

Eventown

Eventown

By Corey Ann Haydu

When Elodee and her sister, Naomi, move into a supposedly "perfect" town, Naomi fits in perfectly. But Elodee? Elodee had always been quirky, so it was no wonder that she didn't fit in. Here in Eventown, it never rains. No one makes mistakes. Nothing bad ever happens. No bad memories are kept. But something seems wrong in the town, and Elodee is the only one who feels it. Can she discover the hidden secret behind it? I thought that this book was written really well, but the only thing I didn;t like about it was that it got kinda slow later on. It also ends with loose threads. Other than that, a really good book. The first chapter got me hooked and I finished it in a single day!

Demigods & Magicians: Percy and Annabeth Meet the Kanes

Demigods & Magicians: Percy and Annabeth Meet the Kanes

By Rick Riordan

All of Rick Riordan's books are amazing. He is so creative and imaginative with his books. I am pretty sure no other author wrote about Greek mythology in the view of a 16 year old kid who finds out he is a some of one of the major gods, Poseidon or 2 teens who find out they are related to Egyptian gods or even I homeless 16 year old who finds out he is related to Frey And now Egyptian and Greek mythology clash... Simply Amazing!..

The Legend Trilogy

The Legend Trilogy

By Marie Lu

Legend is one of my favorite series of all time, if not my absolute favorite trilogy. Marie Lu is a fantastic author, and I believe she deserves two thumbs up for this series. The character development is absolutely phenomenal (seriously, after reading I wondered how long it took her to plot out the characters!) and the plot is fantastically well planned out. I loved every single page of these books, and the details and characters in this book are amazing. Lu is by far one of my favorite authors of all time, and if you have not read this series please do!

The Villain Virus (NERDS Book Four)

The Villain Virus (NERDS Book Four)

By Michael Buckley

The fourth book in this series has an awesome cliffhanger! It is a must read! Agent "Flinch" is observing a virus that seems to turn everyone into villains (hence the title of the book). When he too gets the virus, he discovers that he beat it and he is now immune to it. Unfortunately, the same cannot be said about his teammates. When his teammates turn against him (and themselves), Flinch has to go in the body of Heathcliff's (their former teammate) body to turn off the source of the virus. But there might be another traitor in the midst...
