Jack Blank and the Imagine Nation (A Jack Blank Adventure)
By Matt Myklusch
This is a great book! I first heard about it from my teacher, and when I got it I couldn't put it down! It's about this boy named Jack Blank doesn't know who or where he comes from. He doesn't even know his real last name. All Jack knows is his bleak, dreary life at St. Barnaby's Home for the Hopeless, Abandoned, Forgotten, and Lost. Everything changes one morning when Jack receives two visitors. The first is a deadly robot straight out of one of Jack's favorite comic books, that tries its best to blow him up. The second is an emissary from a secret country called the Imagine Nation, where all the fantastic and unbelievable things in our world originate, including Jack. Jack soon discovers that he has an amazing ability - one that could make him the savior of the Imagine Nation and the world beyond, or the biggest threat they've ever faced. It's so amazing! They also have a sequel to it called the Secret War. I suggest you read this book fast because it's hard to get a copy at the library!
The Return of the King
By J. R. R. Tolkien
So far, this has been an extremely interesting book. It has been very exciting with many interesting events. I chose to read this book because I have already read the first 2 books (The fellowship of the ring and the two towers) which have been very interesting so I thought I would like to read this one. It has not disappointed me. I would highly recommend this book.
The Witch's Boy
By Kelly Barnhill
This book was very surprising, in a good way. When i first began reading it, I was a little bored, and almost considered stopping. But I decided to keep going, and so I finished the book. I am so glad I did! The Witch's Boy had an unique plot, something like which I have never seen before. The main character was Ned, who never spoke much after his twin brother. His mother was a witch, but then she had to travel away unexpectedly. While she is gone bandits show up to steal the magic his family guards. The only way to protect is to use it himself. Then he is kidnapped and must escape. Where is his mother? Why is the army gathering? What does the Bandit King's daughter have to do with anything? I recommend this book to all teens. There is violence, so it shouldn't be read by younger kids.
Blue Moon (Dead City)
By James Ponti
Although I really enjoyed reading this book, I felt like it was kind of slow. While it still kept the beautiful light mood, I found this book predictable, beautifully so. This book I found really fun and funny, while still having some depth. I found lots of 2nd books about friendships and trust being tested, and while this book is the same, I found it shown from a different perspective. Instead of the usual, where the characters started distrusting each other, but have to put that aside because of some big turn or revelation, and then come out trusting each other more than ever, this book was able to bring in more characters into the web of good and bad relationships while still testing the ones who were already in the web. I found this book really fun. Like always, I would like to thank the author and everybody else who contributed to this book. I would recommend this book to people in middle school, and especially people who don't like to read. I found this book really exciting, and I hope you do too! Thanks!

The Hound of the Baskervilles (A Penguin Classics Hardcover)
By Sir Arthur Conan Doyle
Habiba Sallam Hound of Baskervilles Book Review A book that is small in size can never meet the beauty standards of literature and possess its richness in metaphorical comparisons. However, this rule was broken in crime thriller novel written by Sir Arthur Conan Doyle and titled The Hound of the Baskerville. Sherlock Holmes along with his assistant Watson, notable for their talent in solving mysteries are called upon the moor by James Mortimer to investigate the murder of his patient and family friend. The victim was believed to be murdered by the supernatural hound following the Baskerville curse. This curse is a legend that runs through the family originating from the evil act of Sir Hugo’s when he kidnapped a girl. Upon arrival at the moor after his uncle's tragic murder, Sir Henry Baskerville decides to come back and investigate this curse with Holmes and Watson. To solve the mystery, the all collect different peices of the puzzle after meeting several suspects. One specific suspect was Stapleton whom they were able to track his history and find out that he lied about his sister who was actually his wife. At this point, Holmes digs in and even recognizes that Stapleton actually resembles Hugo's portrait, which might mean a desire for the Baskerville wealth. It has come to Watson that the Barrymore's who were the family servants found a letter signatured LL who was Laura Lyons. They decided to visit her and told her about Stapleton's marriage who spilled the beans about the hound and helped them resolve the curse. Fortunately, Stapleton trained his hound to attack the Baskerville whom was given Sir Henry’s belongings to smell but the younger sibling of the Mrs. Barrymore was dressed in Sir Henry’s clothes. The hound was found killed later when Stapleton instructed the hound to attack Sir Henry, when he was invited to the household. As a naturalist Stapleton treated others as animals as he treated his wife whom he beat after disrespecting and not participating in his plans . After spending a lot of time on the moor and on this case Sherlock Holmes and Watson are winners once again.

Rosalie the Rapunzel Fairy (Storybook Fairies #3): A Rainbow Magic Book (The Storybook Fairies)
By Daisy Meadows
this book's genre is fairy tale and it is written by Daisy Meadows. In the beginning , they are reading the Rapunzel book And see Jack Frost instead of Rapunzel! In the middle, they meet Rosalie and tells Rachel and Kirsty about her magic hairbrush missing. In the end , all three of them find his castle , Rachel and Kirsty turn into green goblins. The main character is Rosalie because she is in every page. Rosalie is an adventurous person because she likes to find flowers and put them in her hair. Rosalie is also caring to animals, people, etc. 2 key events that happened in the book and added to the plot is, in the beginning of the story they were reading the Rapunzel book. But instead of Rapunzel, it was Jack Frost! The second one is, the magic hairbrush was so powerful that whenever they got close to it Jack Frost would take it away. The changed from the beginning of the story because Rachel and Kirsty her friends are also mad at Jack Frost for stealing Rosalie's magic hairbrush. It changes at the end of the story because they realize that Jack Frost wanted beautiful long hair like Rapunzel. On page 52, it says," I only wanted the magical hairbrush so I could have long hair like Rapunzel's." One unanswered question I have for the author is, how did Jack Frost get the magic hairbrush in the first place? What I enjoyed the most about this book is when Rachel and Kirsty turn into green goblins because they had really long noses and really big feet! I would recommend this book to someone because some people like to listen to fairy tales before bed to fall asleep faster. I read it before bed and I felt really relaxed after and fell asleep right away.
