The Adventures of Tom Sawyer
By Mark Twain
The Adventures of Tom Sawyer is my favorite book. Tom is a mischievous young boy who gets into all sorts of trouble. He has a big crush on a new girl named Becky Thatcher, and would do anything for her. He witnesses a grave robbery and murder with his friend Huck Finn. He even runs away with his friends and people assume he's dead. Tom can always talk himself out of a scrape, and can even get kids to take his punishments AND pay him! This is a wonderful book about a fun and daring childhood.
Serafina and the Twisted Staff (Serafina Book 2)
By Robert Beatty
Do you know what a catamount is? It's a cougar or mountain lion! Serafina, a girl living in 1899, was the daughter of a shap_shifter. At times, her mother would be a mountain lion, the next, she would be a human. But Serafina doesn't have this ability. No matter how hard she tries, she can't do it! Up until a few months ago, she didn't even know her mother. Ever since she was little, Serafina has been raised in Biltmore, a giant estate near the mountains of North Carolina. Over time, she has almost become like its guardian. But this time, she'll have to fight hard to defeat her enemy. One night, she encounters a strange man with magical powers. He seems to be able to control animals. Even more terrifying, he has sent his spy so that he can invade Biltmore! But who is it? How can she defeat the man? I liked this book because it had a lot of details about life in 1899.
Hunger Games: Parody - The Starvation Games Starring Jennifer Lawrence! (comic books, parody books, hunger games, dystopian, jennifer lawrence Book 1)
By Parody Brothers
It is a really funny book, but is a total rip-off. I still think its interesting. This book is for Hunger Games fans. If you haven't read the first book, you should probably read it before reading this one.
Warriors: Battles of the Clans (Warriors Field Guide)
By Erin Hunter
Discover more about the Warriors series in this amazing field guide, which will surely thrill any reader! From ThunderClan’s forest hunting skills, to RiverClan’s fishing techniques, or ShadowClan’s stealth and silent abilities, Battles of the Clans has plenty of information about the warrior cats! There are four Clans; ThunderClan, WindClan, RiverClan, and ShadowClan—and they all live in the wild, hunting for themselves. If they can’t find peaceful solutions to a problem...they fight. This book shows some of their battles, and what happened in each one. I highly recommend this to all readers, and I think it is an awesome book, filled with illustrations and excitement! It’s simply impossible to put down.
The Big Shrink (Upside-Down Magic #6)
By Sarah Mlynowski, Lauren Myracle, Emily Jenkins
It's ok, by the way, that is the fifth book in the series so don't read this first actually its great!
Little Vampire Women
By Louisa May Alcott And Lynn Messina
Such an amazing book, but it missed many crucial elements of the origianal story, little women. It was still an amazing book in my eyes.
Ash Princess
By Laura Sebastian
This book is about a princess that is trying to take back her kingdom. Theodosia was six when her kingdom was invaded by the Kalovaxians and her mother, the Queen of Flame and Fury, was murdered right in front of her eyes. On the same day, she became a prisoner in her own castle and was crowed the Ash Princess; as a taunt to her mother’s legacy. She suffers through ten years of humiliation from the Kaiser who loves nothing more than to make her wear a crown made of ashes. One night, the Kaiser makes her kill a prisoner who turns out to be her father to prove her loyalty. After that night, Theo has decided that she cannot simply survive in this nightmare; she needs to fight back. This book is amazing and descriptive. The way the author describes the experiences Theo goes through; it is almost like you can see her pain and fury yourself. The abuse she has to go through makes you understand her philosophy and ideology more clearly. Be warned though; this book is the first of a trilogy so if you read this and enjoy it as I did, you have to read Lady Smoke and Ember Queen.
