Noggin
By John Corey Whaley
Travis Coates is alive. He closed his eyes, and when he opened them, five years had passed. His friends are five years older, and he is still the same age. His girlfriend is engaged to someone else. Travis Coates volunteered to undergo Cryogenic Reanimation after being told he was dying from leukemia. His head was chopped off, put in a freezer, and then put onto someone else’s body. Now Travis’s world has turned upside-down. Why did everything change? How can he go back to his old life—the happy life where he HAD a girlfriend? In a thought-provoking, unique story, Travis is trying to figure everything out; and reclaim the old life he once had. What I thought about it: Noggin was wonderful. It was such a quirky, fun read. This book was so weird—but incredible at the same time. This book has such an absurd concept—but you fall in love with it, and it is amazing how the author came up with this. You almost feel bad for Travis—the poor guy almost died, had to be in a freezer for 5 years, got a new body, and now his best friends are in college and his girlfriend is engaged. :O This book was very much a love story as well as a sci-fi book—it is largely about him trying to get his old girlfriend back. Poor Travis. Chasing after his past, to make it like it was before. I really loved the love (see what I did there? :-) in this book. It added a great touch to to the book. If you are a fan of YA, and/or sci-fi, DEFINITELY pick this book up. You WILL love it. I will definitely read John’s other books! Overall: 9.5 Stars

BARBIE AND THE SECRE
By Molly McGuire Woods
I really really liked this book. I like chapter books. Princess Alexia liked to read instead of gong to dance practice and the ball. A secret book unlocks a secret door in the palace garden. There she makes two friends. I dig Barbie.
Endure (Defy, Book 3) (Defy Trilogy)
By Sara B. Larson
This is the third book in the series so I'm going to assume that most people reading this review have read the first two books. To the people deciding if they should read the third book in the series: why wouldn't you finish the series? Not finishing would be like eating only half a cookie. Why would anyone do that?!? I tell you - no one! Most of us when it comes to cookies or the final book of a series are like the Cookie Monster from Sesame Street. What I thought of the book: To be honest, it was a disappointing conclusion to a series that started great. Most of the book was spent trying to build it to a climax which is not how a final book should be. It should be in the thick of the climax; not building it. What made it worse was that I wasn't engaged with the storyline or characters. Characters could die and I wouldn't care one bit. It felt like the author was giving us crumbs of a cookie not a gooey, chewy, M&M filled cookie. I could see the potential but it just didn't deliver.

Tower of Treasure (Three Thieves)
By Scott Chantler
I have read the whole series, except for PIRATES OF THE SILVER COAST, and the story is great, and the illustrations are amazing. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes action packed comics.
