Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard, Book 2 The Hammer of Thor

Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard, Book 2 The Hammer of Thor

By Unknown

This Norse mythology masterpiece is written by Rick Riordan, the king of mythology writing. Unlike most of his books which are Greek mythology, this series Magnus Chase and the Gods of Asgard is Norse . I found it really unique that Mr.Riordan is writing Norse because it's something that took most of his readers (including me) by surprise. The Hammer of Thor is filled with laughs, action, and little tidbits from Norse mythology which makes learning about it fun, and is (in my opinion) better than The Sword of Summer Book 1. The one thing that blew me away was how Mr.Riordan incorporated his characters (Percy and Annabeth) from other books into his newest instalment of books, something I think is really hard and amazing and made the book even more fun to read. My friends described this book as "litty" but I call it a masterpiece (one of Riordan's best books yet) and is beautifully written. I do suggest reading the first book and of course reading the third book after #2. I recommend this for ages 9+ and die-hard Rick Riordan fans and give it 5/5 stars. HAPPY READINGS! Your fellow bookworm, bean_boy.... (look for my other book reviews!)

All things bright and beautiful

All things bright and beautiful

By James Herriot

"All things bright and beautiful, all creatures great and small, all things wise and wonderful, the Lord God has made them all." Dedicating this book to his wife, Helen, James Herriot takes the reader through the Dales of England to his and Siegfried Farnon's veterinarian practice. Newly married and now an official vet partner with Siegfried, James begins his new life with Helen close by his side. With humor, grace, and wisdom, James describes the interesting days he had healing animals. Like the first book, "All Creatures Great and Small", Herriot weaves in humor but also shows the daily struggles a vet had. I enjoyed how, still, James is so matter of fact. He is not embarrassed to tell of his mistakes. Still keeping the same format and layout of the first book, James rekindles the essence of old characters like Tristan, Siegfried's lovable, little brother who is a fresh graduate from veterinary school and who constantly is getting into trouble and briefly introduces new ones like Pip, a once stray border terrier who was adopted by a nice elderly couple. Also, through this book you can see how much James loves Helen. He adores her and respects her. Helen, still headstrong and confident, is loved by everyone who meets her, and it is apparent through the way James Herriot illustrates her with his words. All and all, I think this book is exceptional. So far, this book is not half as bad with foul language, but I would still suggest this book for 10 and up for some language. I hope you enjoy this book just as much as my family and I are. It truly is heartwarming, sensitive, and sweet but still exceptionally funny. Totally a great sequel to the first book. Happy reading!
