Page turner for boys and girls alike! Tom spends a weekend in Peru with his crazy Uncle Harvery, running away from Otto Gonzalez, the finger cutting crook. Car chase scenes and mountain top gun battles are contrasted with the search for Sir Francis Drake's gold on the coast of South America. Will Tom ever make it out of there? Will Harvey regret brining him along, or is Tom's clever thinking just the ticket to get them both home!

Everyone knows that if you lend something to a villain kid, it won't come back unscathed - or, even more realistically, it won't come back at all. The same is to be said for Mal, Evie, Carlos, and Jay, the four VKs chosen to visit Auradon. Maleficent, Mal's mother, gives them her spell book to cast the necessary spells to get Fairy Godmother's wand in villainous hands, and Mal doesn't hesitate to scrawl all over the spells. She writes down plans, communications, and other things for the other VKs to decipher. But when her feelings about her mother's wicked plan change...well, you'll have to see it for yourself! Following along with the award-winning plot of the Disney Descendants franchise, this is a zesty treat perfect for fans!

school according to humphrey is the best book, well the whole series is great. i think it is way too easy for me but it is so good i keep reading it.

3.5 stars---Since I'm a person who gives books second (and sometimes third) chances, I decided to read the fourth book in the School For Good and Evil series. (I'm talking about second chances and all that because I didn't really like the third book). So, "Quests for Glory" was good, but not great. It was much better than the previous book in the series, The Last Ever After, but I just couldn't enjoy it as much as I wanted to. Again, the book was longer than it needed to be, and I felt like too many new characters were introduced all at once (You know, Nicola (even though she has now become one of my favorite people in the series)? Rhian? All the other minor characters whose names I forgot?) Anyway, I just couldn't keep track of who was who because of this. At least Sophie (everyone's FAVORITE character, I'm being sarcastic) seems to have gotten better. She isn't as vain or self-obsessed as she used to be (oh, wait, I take that back. I guess hosting a party EVERY DAY IN HONOR OF YOURSELF IS vain and self obsessed after all). But I mean it about Sophie's personality improving a tiny bit as the story progresses. After meeting Rhian, she somehow snobbed down (I don't think that's a word, but...). I don't know how it happened, though, since she normally gets even MORE annoying than usual (if that's possible) when she has a boyfriend. Also, Tedros. (We're all going to release those exasperated sighs we've been trying to hold in). I had problems with him in the third book too, and HIS personality, unfortunately, has NOT improved. NOT ONE BIT. Despite being crowned king of Camelot, he's still brash, arrogant, and selfish (I mean, other kingdoms are in trouble, and he has the power to help them but he doesn't? Because he acts like he's worried about the bankruptcy of his own kingdom, though he does absolutely NOTHING to help the poor people? No wonder they liked Rhian better, even though he was the villain all along). And then, there's the plot. Though the plots in the previous School for Good and Evil books were unique and intriguing, this one didn't really hook me. People going on valiant quests that quickly spiral downward because of some unseen villain, while a hero swoops in and tries to save everyone? It sounds kind of stereotypical to me... So I know that all the stuff I've mentioned so far makes the book sound bad, but that's not what I'm going for. I really did think "Quests for Glory" was good, if not amazing. As I mentioned earlier, I loved the character of Nicola--she's smart, resourceful, and worldly. I didn't expect to like her that much, but I did. Rhian is also a pretty well-developed character. I know, he's the villain and we don't know anything about his past, but he still manages to be a cunning double agent whom (admit it) we all liked (as a character, not like THAT). The world building was awesome as usual, and I can tell Chainani works hard on that part of his books. The twist at the end added some drama and suspense, though it was kind of predictable. So I did like the book, and I might read the next one (there's something strangely addicting about a book series that you've started but not finished yet).

I give two thumbs up to this one

Gosh, I REALLY love this book! I don't usually read comic books....I'm more of a scifi and fantasy person. But Awkward, well, the title drew me in and I thought why not give it a shot. TURNS OUT I LOVE LOVE LOVE IT! I checked it out from my amazing local library and read it like five times in three days and then kept visiting my favorite parts. I think why I really like it is because Peppi's emotions are so dramatic but it also is like a regular middle school. There are rival clubs, fairs, sweet field trips, and friends! Even if you don't like comic books, I would TOTALLY give this one a try! --BKS reviews

tells you everything about the characters

I love this book! The movie is awesome, but the book is even better because you get to know what the characters are thinking, how their feeling. I like Rex, and Ahsoka is my favorite.

This is an absolutely amazing book by beloved author Laurel Snyder. Many of my friends said that they didn't like the book because of how it ended, since it ended on a total cliffhanger with many questions left unanswered. I personally love this book because of how it ended, I felt it was necessary to end the book where it did because otherwise you are left with nothing afterwards. This book leaves you wondering long after you have closed its pages, because you get to make up your own ending and answer your own questions. If all the questions that might have arose while reading this book were answered, it would ruin the mystery that the whole story is written around. Now that I have talked about the ending, let's go to the beginning. This book starts on a very important day, "The Changing" where the little green boat floats up to the island, carrying a small snot-faced child, who then gets replaced with the Elder on the island, who floats away to the horizon, never to be seen again. This is how it has always gone, and this is how it will always go, because it is what the rules say, "Nine on the island, orphans all. Any more, the sky might fall." But Jinny doesn't follow the rules, this year she is the Elder, and this year she has a Care, and this year she is holding on. Ever since Deen, Jinny's best friend, left, Jinny as been lost, the island her only grounding point. So when it is her turn to step into the little green boat, she doesn't. Things start going wrong all over the island, things that have been so predictable in the past, suddenly turn unpredictable, things on the inside of Jinny, and on the outside. Even though Jinny is confused, she is the Elder and she has to fix this, because it was her that caused it. I love this book because it covers topics that aren't usually mentioned in books aimed towards children, but are bound to happen no matter what. I think there is a deeper message to this book, which is that you can't hold on too long to your childhood because life will keep on moving on around you and within you, and you have to become more responsible, because you will get more responsibility. This book is good for kids 10 and up, and even if you think you won't like the ending I still encourage you to read it because there is still the whole book left that can get you thinking and get you questioning.
