The Rithmatist

The Rithmatist

By Brandon Sanderson

The book I read was Rithmitist by Brandon Sanderson. The book was about a non-Rithmitist student named Joel and his friend Melody. Joel attends a Rithmatist school called Arimduas, only because Joel's mother is a night maid and works there. After students start disappearing is up to Joel and Melody to find the kidnapper and stop him. The atmosphere of the book is sorta Harry Potter esc and a little bit of steam punk mixed into it. The rate I would hit the book is 4 1/2 out of 5 stars. The reason being is because there are some slow parts of the book that was really boring. They tried to lead to a romance but that just took way and sidetracked the reader. For example the Ice Cream parlor was just a wast of time. Non of the information in that scene was of any use except maybe the dollar. Over all thought the book is still fantastic and you should read it.

Hunger (Gone)

Hunger (Gone)

By Michael Grant

This was a really amazing great book. I enjoyed it a lot and this got me to read way more than I usually do. This is what it's about. Since Caine Soren, the leader was actually evil and wanted a lot of destruction. And after being sick for 3 months, him and his crew finally go and try to kill Sam and take over The FAYZ (fallout alley youth zone). Unfortunately, that wasn't the worst. Many kids were very lazy and completely refusing to work, and one of the results of that was starvation. Some people who didn't get powers were jealous and falsely accused someone of murdering, causing many people without powers to turn against them (the people with powers). The FAYZ seems to be going down and nothing is going well. I thought this was a really great book and the author did an amazing job adding suspense and I was really attached to this book.

The Adoration of Jenna Fox (The Jenna Fox Chronicles)

The Adoration of Jenna Fox (The Jenna Fox Chronicles)

By Mary E. Pearson

I found this book at my school library and picked it up because I needed a book to read. It turned out to be so much more than a time-filler, however. The story begins with Jenna Fox, who has just woken up from a year-long coma. She now lives in a house in California with her parents and grandmother, who do not let her leave. Jenna is regaining her memory and she starts to find herself again, find out what happened to her, and who she really is. A great book for middle-grade readers who love a mix of sci-fi and realistic fiction.

Inside the Walls of Troy

Inside the Walls of Troy

By Clemence McLaren, Joel P. Johnson

In this historical story, retold by Clemence McLaren, we are introduced to two characters; Helen - the most beautiful and famous female alive, who is the cause of the Trojan War; Cassandra - has the gift, or curse, to predict the future. When Cassandra foresees the ruin of her family and city that Helen's arrival in Troy will cause, she is outraged. While this happened, Helen gets wife-snatched by Cassandra's own half brother, Paris. Helen and Paris fall deeply in love but when they sail to Troy, they do not know the chaos that will happen. Soon, the Greek people call for war for stealing the king's wife. I'll leave it off here because it's pretty good and I think you should experience it yourself!

Waterfire Saga, Book One Deep Blue (A Waterfire Saga Novel)

Waterfire Saga, Book One Deep Blue (A Waterfire Saga Novel)

By Jennifer Donnelly

The book Deep Blue is written by Jennifer Donnelly. I really like this book because it is full of magical creatures. In the book, there are different languages that mean the same thing. The book is talking about the adventure of the mermaids. In this book, the main character is the mermaid named Serafina. She was supposedly engaged to Prince Madhi. But when she heard that over the two years, Madhi had changed a lot. He had become a playboy and even had a girlfriend. When Serafina first heard this, she was very sad. But her best friend, Neela, cousin of Madhi, cheered her up. When the day to announce Serafina as the new queen, an attack appeared and maybe had killed Serafina's mother. Since that day, Serafina and Neela had been going through different difficulties and getting into several problems. Serafina and Neela met different mermaids from different places. Each one of them had to leave their home and family to save the ocean. The thing that I like about this book is that the characters in the story have great confidence even though they were at their worst times. I think the story is very heart-warming and exciting at the same time. I would really recommend this book to people that like to read or watch action books or movies because there is a lot of different adventures in this book that are super surprisingly fun and dangerous.
