Ophelia and the Marvelous Boy

Ophelia and the Marvelous Boy

By Karen Foxlee

Warning this review may contain spoilers! Ophelia finds this magical boy locked inside a room in a museum and agrees to help him with magical a quest. What I thought of it: Well, I read it awhile ago so I don't remember it very well. I do remember that everything that was supposed to be a "secret' or what not was pretty obvious. I knew from the start that the museum lady was the Snow Queen. I also figured that Ophelia was the special person (I can't remember the name they used at this exact moment). Also, I quickly figured out that Alice was going to be put into the machine. So yeah, everything was obvious. Also Ophelia was just plain annoying. She just went around saying that she didn't believe in magic because she was too smart to believe in magic. Well honestly, she wasn't that smart. She just came off as snotty. And she was boring too. The author tried to make her seem quirky and what not, but all that she did was take her inhaler. She literally took it like 4 times a day. The author must of not done much research because once you take your inhaler, you're supposed to wait 4 to 6 hours before taking it again. And this book wasn't very well written. Also, I was disappointed that we never learned the Marvelous Boy's name. Overall, it was boring and predicable. I've read a lot of books that were just like it.

The teacher put a book in the Writer's Corner. So what? Well, I'll rephrase the sentence. The teacher hid the book in The Writer's corner. And she leaves some instructions inside. The best way to rephrase it is: If you find this book, you can write anything you like. You can draw pictures, tell jokes, and pretty much anything. So the first person to find the book is Lizzy. She hopes that only girls will find it. Then more people start finding it. Such as: Milton; the class nerd who likes everyone to stick to the facts, Luke; the class clown, Jimmy; a boy who doesn't like to write, Kira; Lizzy's friend, and more. Soon enough, Lizzy gets hypercritical and makes rules that she herself won't follow. And Luke makes mean jokes even when people tell him to stop. And what about the other kids? Jimmy is deffinetly on Luke's side. Kira is no doubt on Lizzy's side, and Milton just wants everyone to stick with the facts. But the journal might have a way to bring the entire class together.

Cages: 9

Cages: 9

By Peg Kehret

I recommend that you read cages because it goes back and forth. As soon i as started reading cages it got hooked in so i just wanted to keep reading but this book can get very sad when lady die and Dorthy is in the hospital and Wayne gets in a car wreck for drunk driving. This book was wonderful and sad but you should really read cages if you like books that start out with a bunch of problems and ends with a happy ending.

The book is a realistic fiction story in Penobscot Bay, Maine.In the story it is summer and when summer ends a hurricane knocks on the front door and opens it. I loved the beautiful pictures and maybe you will too. After the hurricane was done a lot of seaweed came near their house so the girls shoveled up the seaweed to use it for fertilizer used for the garden.I hope you love it.

A Crooked Kind of Perfect

A Crooked Kind of Perfect

By Linda Urban

I loved this book so so so so so much!!!!!!! It is a great realistic fiction story!!! It is about a girl, who really wants to play the piano, but then she ends up playing the organ instead. In this story it tells how you don't always get exactly what you want, but sometimes, different is perfect. Since I play the piano, I know what Zoe means by you have to work hard in piano, you can't sit back and relax. My favorite character in this book is Zoe because she is very understandable about things like how when in the beginning when she couldn't get a piano, she learned the organ instead. I also liked how it ended, but I don't want to give it away.
