Flashback (Keeper of the Lost Cities)
By Shannon Messenger
I loved this book! It is my favorite in the series so far! Sophie needs to learn to fight, because she knows that her abilities can be avoided by the Neverseen. But afetr Alvar's tribunal, Sophie and Fitz suffer series damage from shadows. Illusion is the villains new weapon. Because of her injuries, she can't fight, but she can train with Fitz, that is, when he's conscious again. Fitz was attacked on the Heart, unlike Sophie , who was attacked on her arm and forehead. Things are changing quickly. Silveny is pregnant,Sophie needs to heal with Fitz, they need to figure out how to stop the shawdows, make them go away, and control them to use for themselves. Most importantly, they need to stop the Neverseeen. Tam is one hope. He's a shade, and he is very good at taking control at the shadow-flux. He's scared though, and that makes it harder. The Neverseen have revealed that they will attack when the newborn trolls hatch. That's a bad idea. The trolls are most dangerous when they hatch first. Sophie starts to train a bit to late, and she can only throw with her left arm, her bad arm. How will they stop the Neverseen if they aren't ready?
Unlocked Book 8.5 (Keeper of the Lost Cities)
By Shannon Messenger
I DEFINITELY recommend Keepers Of The Lost Cities to person looked for a very intriguing series that’s IMPOSSIBLE to put down! I really like that Shannon added the comprehensive guide to the Lost Cities in the first half of Unlocked( Book 8.5) because we really needed all the details and loose ends to be tied up. And that map in the front cover is absolutely gorgeous! Also a LOT of game-changer stuff happens including Keefe and the cache (No Spoilers😉). Also this book picks up off of the cliffhanger in the end of book 8 (Legacy). I really like that it changes off from Keefe’s perspective and Sophie’s, cause it really gives you a deeper insight on the plot, story, feelings, message etc... I totally recommend anyone to start reading this series and Unlocked if they’ve read the other books! I would say that these books should probably be for readers ages 11-12, and maybe mature 10 year olds/6th grade and up! Like and follow me please! Bye!

By Margaret Peterson Haddix

Goosebumps Hall of Horrors #1: Claws!
By R.L. Stine
This book is so good I borrowed it from my friend About the Book- SPOILER ALERT! A boy named Mickey is asked to take care of a black cat named Bella. One day, Bella runs out of the house and is hit by a truck. Mickey and Amanda feel really bad but when they look on the street, Bella is GONE! They decided to go and steal a look alike cat from a mysterious store named Cat Heaven, when they go into the employees only door, they find a lookalike of Bella, furthermore, it was Bella. That was because the store name itself (Cat Heaven) means a heaven for cats. The front cats are real, but the ones in the back are ghosts! When the owners come back from their vacation, Mickey and Amanda confessed, but instead, they learned that Bella died 3 times already. They also told them that they shouldn't of picked it up because if not picked up by the rightful owner, the cat would be evil. That was why ghosts cats have been haunting Mickey. To get them away once and for all, he sacrifices his mouse's life in order to get all of them by Cat Heaven. Some time later, Mickey finds a store called Mouse Heaven, and he picks up his little mouse that he sacrificed. A really good story. If you don't really understand me and want more details, you would have to read the book!
The Hunger Games (The Hunger Games, Book 1)
By Suzanne Collins
"May the odds be ever in your favor!" After a bloody war, twelve districts rose from the ashes of what was formerly known as North America, lead by a glorious Capitol. As revenge for the districts' betrayal in the war, the Capitol requires one young man and woman from each district to participate in an annual televised fight to the death, commonly known as the 'Hunger Games.' And when Primrose Everdeen, an innocent twelve-year-old from District 12 gets selected to participate in the Hunger Games, her sister, Katniss, is shell-shocked - and in a life-changing decision, volunteers to take her place. Her fellow tribute from her district is announced as one Peeta Mellark, who helped Katniss and her family in their time of need.. and there will only be one survivor. In order to survive, they are presented to the frivolous citizens of the Capitol as "star-crossed lovers", and must play the part to stay alive.. together. Prepare for an action-filled adventure of betrayals, poisonous berries, unexpected allies, bloody deaths, wildfires, heartbreak, and maybe even true love..? I highly recommend this book - please give it a try! This book fit right in the "dystopia" label, honestly - even though I completely fell for this book my first time reading it, I grew a little more critical the next few times around.. I felt like the "star-crossed lovers" cliché didn't exactly "fit" Katniss and Peeta - I felt like Katniss would be better off with her sister, Prim, even in the absolutely terrible conditions of District 12 - that would have been a "happy ending" for her. Instead, Katniss is stuck in a confusing love triangle between basically useless Peeta and her long-time friend, Gale, and I feel like even though the bloody Hunger Games is supposed to be the "main" storyline of the series, the whole overwhelming romance thing just pushes everything else aside. Aside from the cheesy "romance" side of this series, I absolutely loved some parts of the book - the sacrifice Katniss made for Prim felt so.. so heartbreaking, but I was absolutely devastated when a specific friend of Katniss died in her arms.. The emotional aspect of such an event was so well captured in this book, how heartbreaking it would be to lose your family or friends.. I could not stop sobbing. This outshone the "romance" storyline for me, and now, I am happy to say that I believe that Suzanne Collins wrote an absolutely breathtaking novel.. thank you.
Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone (Book 1)
By J.K. Rowling
I am a BIG fan of the Harry Potter series! It’s about this boy named Harry who lives with his mean aunt, uncle, and cousin. Then, on his birthday, he learns the truth about what really happened to his parents, and found out he was (and still is) a wizard! He gets to go to Hogwarts, a school for witchcraft and magic! On his first day, he picks Gryffindor, the brave, which is one of the four houses. He makes friends with Ron and Hermione, who are also in his house. He also learns about You-Know-Who, aka. Voldemort (who, by the way, has no nose 😂), and is determined to find out the secret behind the evil antagonist/villain. I would recommend this book, and the whole series to people who like fantasy and adventure! I’ve read all the books so far, and I’ll give it a five star! 🤩
Rebel Genius (Rebel Geniuses)
By Michael Dante DiMartino
12 year old Giacomo lives in a Renaissance-inspired world where art is feared and has been outlawed. Giacomo has been living on his own for several years after escaping the orphanage. He spends his days hiding in the sewers and evading Nerezza guards, the evil ruler of Virenzia. The only thing he actually does for fun is to draw in his sketchbooks. Then one day a Genius shows up-his Genius. This is extremely rare, as a Genius (which is a birdlike creature that represents an artist's creative spirit and essence) is supposed to come when you are a baby. Not to mention all the Geniuses are supposed to be extinct. He is even more surprised when three other kids show up to find him, also with a Genius each. They tell him about a secret studio where they are trained to use their energies as weapons. Giacomo thinks he has finally found a safe place. But an evil artist is looking for something, the three Sacred Tools. With them he could destroy the world. So Giacomo along with others must set off with their Geniuses to stop him. There were so many details about this world that I wouldn't know where to begin. I love how as the book goes on you learn little pieces that fit the whole puzzle together. I also loved the suspense and mystery, there was also a lot of action. There were very few, if any, dull moments in the book. Every scene had a purpose. There were some intense parts in this book. Part of the story is told by a man-made creature who has four arms, and his whole purpose is to follow the bidding of his master, which is usually to threaten or even kill somebody. Another aspect of the story revolves around the Lost Souls, which are the artists who are dead. Because of some of those parts I would recommend this book to middle grade and up, not elementary. I rate this book 4 out of 5 stars.
