One choice can transform you—or it can destroy you. But every choice has consequences, and as unrest surges in the factions all around her, Tris Prior must continue trying to save those she loves—and herself—while grappling with haunting questions of grief and forgiveness, identity and loyalty, politics and love. Tris's initiation day should have been marked by celebration and victory with her chosen faction; instead, the day ended with unspeakable horrors. War now looms as conflict between the factions and their ideologies grows. And in times of war, sides must be chosen, secrets will emerge, and choices will become even more irrevocable—and even more powerful. Transformed by her own decisions but also by haunting grief and guilt, radical new discoveries, and shifting relationships, Tris must fully embrace her Divergence, even if she does not know what she may lose by doing so.

I have immensely enjoyed enjoyed The Hobbit by J. R. R. Tolkien. The Hobbit is about Bilbo Baggins, who is a hobbit, which is a person who is rich and highly respected. Hobbits are known to live a good life, enjoy their riches and not supposed to go on adventures, but Gandalf and his dwarf friends tell Bilbo of an adventure of his lifetime and that this adventure has a generous reward at the end, which is why they choose him for the job. As they set off, they find themselves in trouble with the orcs, who are like goblins. Bilbo finds a magic ring and they make many enemies along the way. Their adventures are dangerous and nerve-wrecking! They must go through a black forest with giant spiders that are poisonous, and the King of the Forest, who puts them in prison for disturbing his royal subjects. Bilbo helps the dwarves escape and he finally reaches his treasure, but the adventure does not end there. They then have to defeat an evil dragon that has been plundering all the people of the towns near his mountain and takes their valuables. Bilbo finally defeats the dragon and gets his share of the reward, which is a handsome sum of money and treasures. He heads back to his home, but finds that he is no longer respected because he went on an adventure rather than live his life as a hobbit like everyone expected him to. I recommend this book to higher level readers because it is a challenging book to understand, although it is quite interesting.

This book looks so good for kids like late elementary schoolers and middle schooners.

This book... Isn't my favourite. It is like the hunger games, but with everything that made the hunger games so good taken out of it. (the gore, sadness, etc.) I read on one site that is was more optimistic, but it isn't! Cia, although resourceful, is too perfect for me... she doesn't have any flaws made clear to the audience. The characters don't have that much personality and description is sparse. It was alright, but could not be compared to the hunger games, Marie Lu's Legend, and all other books of this sort.

This is a really funny book about how Mr. Popper, a very eccentric and interesting fellow, gets a pet penguin in the mail. This may sound like a weird book, and it is, but in a good way. Mr. Popper's penguin, who he names Captain Cook, is getting a little lonely so they decide to get another penguin, and they end up with a bunch of little baby penguins! Now these penguins aren't exactly the cheapest of pets, and the Popper family isn't exactly rich, so they decide to use the penguins to their advantage. They put on a show called "Mr. Popper's Penguins" and they go to lots of different theaters around the country. Now this did not toll well on the penguins so Mr. Popper finally gets his dream in the end (read this book to find out what it is.) This was a pretty easy read, so I would recommend it to elementary level readers.

Brian is going to his dads,when the plane crashes in the uncivilized wilderness of canada. Brian is left with nothing but a torn windbreaker,hatchet that his mom gave him. Can Brian survive the harsh wilderness? Will he man up? Will he get found? I do recommend this book for people who like adventure and survival. The rest of the series is great too!

I thought this book was good but not usually the type of book I would read. It has good storytelling but doesn't have a lot of action scenes. When I was reading it I felt bored sometimes because nothing excited was happening in that part. I liked this book because it always had questions running wild in my head. It is a book about a girl named Opal that just moved to a new town with her father. She feels very alone because she has no friends and her father is spending to much time on his job and not enough on her. Then she encounters a dog named Winn-Dixie and he changes her life. One of the things I most disliked about this book is I felt it took too long to get the climax and that the climax was really the only part with a lot of action and was exciting. The book itself is more intriguing than excited. One of the things I liked most about the book was how it always made me guess if something were to happen next or what was happing with a character that made him/her the way they are. I also liked how they kept teasing the return of a certain character and the result of the tease. All things considered, I would say the good thing outweighs the bad and it wasn't perfect so I think a 4-star rating if fair.

I gave this book a 4 because Abraham Lincoln was my favorite president and he was one of the best in my opinion. The books talks about Abraham Lincoln's presidency, life , and struggles. He lived during the Civil War, and had to try to stop it. He had 4 kids one died at age 4, and he was very sad. He didn't let it stop him from doing good in life. Finally he fought in the war to serve his country.

Who Was Ben Franklin?, by Dennis Brindell Fradin, says that even if you have had sad times, you can still live an accomplished life. Benjamin Franklin was born in 1706 at Boston, Massachusetts, died in 1790, and had a miserable childhood. When Benjamin was still a teenager, he was an apprentice at his brother’s printing shop. His brother, however, was cruel to him, and he didn’t like his work. However, he moved to Pennslyvania and started a new life. He became a founding father of the U.S.A, and one of the best American inventors of all time. I recommend this biography for boys and girls, grades third to fifth.
