The Forgetting Spell (Wishing Day)

The Forgetting Spell (Wishing Day)

By Lauren Myracle

This is the second book in the wishing day trilogy and it is told in Darya's perspective. I really liked the first book and it ended in a cliffhanger which is why I decided to read the second book. I definitely liked the first book way better than this one. In "The Forgetting Spell" I felt like the same things were just happening over and over but in different ways. The story also moved along really slowly and I felt like most of it was just Darya being mad or feeling sorry for herself. The main character Darya does not model good behavior at all, and I understand that she might be acting this way because of the situation she is in, but she takes her anger and frustration out on the people that love her the most. Most of the book was this happening again and again, and I didn't really get what the plot was. I felt that this book was a bit unnecessary, and the series would have been better if it just went from the first book to the third book with a little modification. Overall, it was an okay book and just wasn't my favorite from this author. I liked the first book better and I am reading the third book currently and it is pretty good. All of this is just my opinion and I think the book was still written really well, it was just that the story and plot line didn't hit the mark for me.

The Return to the Kingdom of Fantasy (The Quest for Paradise)

The Return to the Kingdom of Fantasy (The Quest for Paradise)

By Geronimo Stilton

It was a very engaging adventure and fantasy story. The main plot of the story is deeply interesting though there are many teensy tiny problems along the way. Even though it is just a story that you might read , you should be ready at all times to find yourself in an a new world of book imagination.

The Mark of the Dragonfly

The Mark of the Dragonfly

By Jaleigh Johnson

Piper has never seen the Mark of the Dragonfly until she finds the girl amid the wreckage of a caravan in the Meteor Fields. The girl doesn't remember a thing about her life, but the intricate tattoo on her arm is proof that she's from the Dragonfly Territories and that she's protected by the king. Which means a reward for Piper if she can get the girl home. The one sure way to the Territories is the 401, a great old beauty of a train. But a ticket costs more coin than Piper could make in a year. And stowing away is a difficult prospect--everyone knows that getting past the peculiar green-eyed boy who stands guard is nearly impossible. Life for Piper just turned dangerous. A little bit magical. And very exciting, if she can manage to survive the journey. It is an adventurous journey.

Ada Twist and the Perilous Pants: The Questioneers Book #2

Ada Twist and the Perilous Pants: The Questioneers Book #2

By Andrea Beaty

This is a fun easy reader on my STEM list this summer. There are two additional books by this author, Andrea Beaty in the set I received. Iggy Peck, Architect and Rosie Revere, Engineer, I will read and review later. The young girl in this book has soooo many questions, just like me. I laughed because my parents always stopped what they were doing to answer my questions and that encouraged me to ask more, now I am a junior scientist with even more questions that I am answering on my own. Great book for young kids, but older kids can enjoy.

A Wonderlandiful World (Ever After High)

A Wonderlandiful World (Ever After High)

By Shannon Hale

I loved this book because it shows passion and empathy. I can't stop laughing at the cards that Lizzie's mother gave Lizzie. I mean like her mother calls people worms and says you should not listen to worms. Now that is confusing and funny. I do also feel sad that the people who live in wonderland can't be with their children because the portal to Wonderland got shut down. i do have a question too. If the children could go to Ever After High, then how come the parents can't come with them. How come Maddie and the daughter of Chester, can talk to the Narrator, but the others can't. Now that isn't fair!

The Princess Imposter

The Princess Imposter

By Vivian Vande Velde

The Princess Imposter is written by a special author, Vivian Vande Velde. This story is about two girls that their lives have gotten switched. Not all girls can be as special as that, experiencing two lives! Princess Gabriela is a princess that lives in a really big castle, as Phelg is a fairy that lives in a really poor fairy family. Gabriela gets switched to a very poor fairy family, while on the other hand, Phelg gets switched to a very rich royal family. Gabriela has to learn how to do chores, that she never really does-because she has servants- while Phelg needs to learn how to be a proper princess and need to learn proper manners. A conflict that they both have to face is that they have two boys that they meet. The fairies, princess, and prince start to know one another, and in fact, they start to like each other. When Princess Gabriela gets transported back to her kingdom, she finds a big problem, bigger than the one where lives are switched. She finds another girl looking exactly like her. When after they sort things out, Prince Frederick stays with Phelg, because he loves her just the way she is-even though she's a fairy. The same thing happens to Princess Gabriela and Parf, but without the 'just the way you are'. After Prince Frederick confessed his feelings for Phelg, Parf shyly-and slowly because he doesn't really understand love-confessed his feelings to Princess Gabriela. Both Phelg and Princess Gabriela are surprised because they didn't know that these two boys have a crush on them. Another way they got surprised is because of their height. In the book, it states that fairies are shorter than humans. I rate this book 5 stars because of it's magic and funny love.
