Scarlett: The Sequel to Margaret Mitchell's Gone With the Wind

Scarlett: The Sequel to Margaret Mitchell's Gone With the Wind

By A Ripley

Scarlet This is one of my all time favourite books, it is mainly aimed at higher aged children 10+ and is dramatic and has a deep story line. The author writes it so that you know exactly how the main character feels. This is one of my favourite books by Cathy cassidy (I have nearly read them all!) and I truly recommend it.

My daughter read this book. When I heard her crying from her bedroom I went to see what was the matter. As I calmed her down I started to read the last couple of chapters. The book was very engaging and the author does a great job of invoking emotion however this was my problem. The story describes a strong loving relationship about a boy and his dog "Searchlight" and goes to great length to pull you in to this relationship. With in an instant and right at the climactic point / end of the story "His heart bursts and he drops dead" WOW really he couldn't have broke a leg or pulled a muscle!?! The author is great and the story is well told. I'm not sure that young children should have to experience the devastation of death so harshly. I believe enjoyment of reading will promote more reading however not sure this book will leave the right impression on a young reader. I almost feel as it should have some sort of warning label or rating like " PG 13"

The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants

The Sisterhood of the Travelling Pants

By Ann Brashares

4 best friends. 4 different destinations for the summer. 1 pair of magical pants. This is a recipe for a summer Carmen, Tibby, Lena, and Bridget will never forget!! The 4 friends are all going different places for the first time in their lives this summer. It’s going to be very different. On their last day together before parting ways, they find a seemingly normal pair of pants in Carmen’s closet. But when they try them on, they realize the pants fit everyone perfectly!!! They must be magic, because they all have different body types and heights. They decide to send the pants back and forth during the summer so they can each have some of its luck. Get ready for a wild ride, because this book has a lot of fun and energy inside! I personally really enjoyed this book, but it does have some mature content, so I recommend it for grades 8 and up, maybe 7th grade if you are a mature reader. What will the Pants have in store for you?? :)

All This Time

All This Time

By Mikki Daughtry, Rachael Lippincott

I truly wanted to like this book. I did not. In All This Time, the protagonist, Kyle Lafferty, gets broken up with by his lifelong girl Kimberly right off the bat. Then, while they're fighting in Kyle's car about why they don't work together anymore, there's a freak storm that causes Kyle and Kimberly to get in a car crash. Kyle wakes up to learn that Kim is dead. Unable to cope, he defers his dream school, UCLA, which he was supposed to go to in September. After months of nightmares and not really living, he meets Marley, a sweet girl who shares similar trauma. Slowly, they fall in love while trying to heal together. But what first seems like an okay story takes a complete turn, and there are so many twists and inexplicable events that the story doesn't make any sense at all by the end. There are so many attempts at plot twists and shocking the reader that it's a confusing, nonsensical pile of pages. The beautiful cover and the famous authors first attracted me, but now, I can't look at this book the same way. Please do not let yourself down by reading this. It is truly confusing and overwhelming.
