Shatter Me
By Tahereh Mafi
Ok, so, to clarify, the book is really more of a 3.5 than three. The reason being, the book has so much hype built around it, receiving accolades like "best dystopian read" on platforms like booktok. And as a lover of a good book, I couldn't wait to buy and read it. And while the reader really does feel like they are in Juliette's chaotic mind, at points it also seems it's trying too hard to be deep. Which may just sound like picky-ness, but after 338 pages, it can feel like trying to put a square peg in a round hole. However, the plot is fast-paced, and keeps the fire alive without letting it fizzle out, and the dystopian world creates a sense of danger that is hard to replicate. On the other hand, the main character, Juliette, is slightly selfish, which is another reason why the book wasn't all it was made up to be. But, overall, Tahereh Mafi did a commendable job emulating a world of grays where all hope seems to be lost, but here, we have Juliette. Ready to set this dark world ablaze with her game-changing ability.

Amelia's War
By Ann Rinaldi
Amelia Grafton, a girl who lived through the American Civil War of 1861-64. Like all of those other people, Amelia had to fight through to get additional information during the war against the North (Union) and the South (Confederate). Josh Dechart, one of Amelia's good friend who you will see more often among with other characters. Jinny Pearl Beale, a sweetheart for one of Amelia's brothers but not anymore, was also a woman soldier and spy, inspired from the Belle Boyd, another woman spy and a soldier. While reading this book, I can see that the Grafton have each other's backs, feelings about the war, different perspectives from each different character. - Happy Reading!
Animal Rescue: Honey the Unwanted Puppy

This book is really sad but sweet! But so far I'm only on page 15!
Or Give Me Death: A Novel of Patrick Henry's Family
By Ann Rinaldi
Patsy and Anne Henry, daughters of America's well known congressman, Patrick Henry. But much more behind Patrick Henry's fame and inspiration to the colonial America as another war is being fought at Henrys' home as the children's mother and Patrick's wife, Sarah got out of her mind as she started acting unlike herself. Family of Henrys are breaking apart as death, wars, and friends being lost are not new to them. This is actually amazing of how we think we just know about Patrick Henry but not a lot of about his family as we read through this type of stories and this left me having the new perspective about Patrick. - Happy Reading!
The Report Card by Andrew Clements
By by Andrew Clements
Nora has a big secret. The secret is that she's a genius! Nora learned to read in kindergarten, and could easily solve jigsaw puzzles when she was a baby! But Nora doesn't like people to make a big deal about her intelligence. So she tries not to show that she's a genius. When she takes the Connecticut Mastery Test, she purposely gets a few questions wrong so it'll seem like she's an average student. Another thing Nora dislikes is how her classmates make a big deal out of their test scores. Especially her friend Steven. So on 5 of the tests, she deliberately gets D's. When Nora's parents find out, they get angry and call the school. Then, Nora has to take an IQ test, and she accidentally reveals how smart she is. What will happen then? I like this book because it's exciting and also funny. I recommend this book to people who enjoy realistic fiction books.
Journey on a Runaway Train (The Boxcar Children Great Adventure)
By Gertrude Chandler Warner
This book is really cool. Its kinda like a modern adaption of The Original Boxcar Children. The Orphans are recruited by a secret society and are supposed to return artifacts to the right place. The children go on an adventure around the globe. Its a fun and exciting book and I would recommend it to anyone who loves a good adventure!
The Realms of the Gods (Immortals, The)
By Tamora Pierce
Final adventure in the series featuring Daine and her friends. This book possibly be one of my favorites from this series, beautifully and expressive written by Tamora Pierce. As you would meet more new characters as we go through our last adventure with Veralidaine Sarrasri as we learn few of the shocking secrets that Daine never even knew about in her lifetime. Now sixteen, she started to find the romance and friendships with the characters. Again, like I said before, this book is possibly one of my favorite from this series of "The Immortal" as there'll have the plot twists, not something that you would expect from this book and you may want to sit in your comfy seat and read all day, reading and being with Daine. - Happy Reading!

Mary Engelbreit's Classic Library: A Little Princess
By Frances Hodgson Burnett
This is a book about a little girl called Sara Crewe. She had servants, closets full of clothing, and a great dad. Her mom died when she was born, but she did not miss her, because she never saw her. Sara loved telling stories and she loved reading books. She was a pretty girl, with long lashes and eyes with a queer color. Her life was better than everyone else. One day, Sara's father told Sara to go to a boarding school for young ladies. She didn't like the place because it was dull and ugly on the inside, with a very ugly and strict teacher who only cared about wealth. Before the day of of leaving each other, Sara's father bought her a doll that Sara loved, who was called Emily. In the boarding school, everyone liked her, except some of the big girls that were popular before Sara came. She cared for a mother-less girl called Lottie and even made a friend called Ermengarde. I'm not going to tell you the rest, but you can read to find out! I recomend it for 7-13 year olds.
