Shouting at the Rain
By Lynda Mullaly Hunt
Lyla A
Drip,Boom weather Drip, Boom weather loving Delsi was outside in a loud thunderstorm. This book is called Shouting at the rain. It is written by Lynda Mullay Hunt. It was published in 2019. The author did a really good job writing this book. She put so much evidence and it helped me to understand all the events. It was happy and sad. I loved it! In the story Shouting at the rain there was a girl named Delsi, and she wanted some friends. But when her best friend came to the cape for the summer. (Like she does every summer.) She dumped Delsi for another girl. One day when Delsi was sitting at the picnic tables she saw a boy sneaking around. Then she found him running along the beach the next day. They became friends after a while. The boy's name is Ronan. Now everyone is happy and Ronan moved next door to Delsi. This story's moral tells you to be happy with what you have. Shouting at the rain has a lot of interesting settings, and these are my personal favorites. One setting I like the best is the beach because I love the beach and a lot of cool stuff in the book took place there. Delsi loves a good run along the beach but she does not believe in shoes so one day as she ran along the beach she stepped on a piece of sea glass and did not even notice, until her grandmother saw it and fixed it up for her. Sauce Pan Lynn’s is another favorite. I like this setting a lot because a lot of funny stuff happened there. For example it is a restaurant that Delsi and Ronan went to a lot, and Sauce Pan Lynn told Ronan to flip a crepe. When he did it ended up on the ceiling, which I think is really funny. Here is what I like most about the book. What I like most about the book is when Delsi and her grandmother go to olives house on a stormy day. In the book it said that they went to Olives house to comfort her because she is afraid of storms. So Delsis grandmother hugged Olive telling her that everything is going to be OK! They stayed until the storm was over. Which I think is a really nice thing to do. I loved this book, it had happy and sad parts. I think the author did a very good job writing this story. I recommend this book to older kids because it tells you how you should be happy with what you have, also this book is 49 chapters long. I don’t recommend this book to kids 7 and under because it is very long and they will not understand the moral of the story.

I think this book will be about Nate drawing or doodling because the title of the book is Doodlepalooza and it has the word doodle in it.
Moving Target
By Christina Diaz Gonzalez
Before I say anything else about this book, I just want to say it was a decent read. Honestly, I've read worse books, but I definitely had a lot of problems with this one. First of all, I felt that the description was misleading. Where are the thrilling, heart-in-your-throat chases and adventure and fate and great evil I was promised? I didn't even feel compelled to root for the main characters. The book itself felt very forced, passive, and bland. The concept is great but the execution fell flat. I didn't get ANY sense of the peril they were in, and there were hardly ANY cliffhangers that might have helped keep me at least a tiny bit intrigued. The only part of Moving Target that I enjoyed was the last chapter, which made me wonder what would happen to poor Cassie and Asher, but that was about it. Hopefully the second book will be a lot better in comparison to this one. Overall I recommend this to anyone, as it is very mild on violence and there is no bad language.
Mark of the Thief (Mark of the Thief #1)
By Jennifer A. Nielsen
When this book started, immediately I was brought back to one of my favorite book series: Gods and Warriors. (I almost thought I had accidentally picked up the Gods and Warriors book again.) But after the first chapter I realized that this was a whole different story. Nic finds the Bulla, which is filled with the overpowering magic bestowed by one of the gods–the question is: which god or goddess? Nic's wildest dreams comes true–along with some of his worst nightmares too. Another user of magic searches tirelessly for him and his bulla, seeking to harness the magic it contains. Who really are Nic's allies and enemies? Or is there really no difference between them? In this well-paced fantasy story, Nic is pitted against the beasts, magic itself, griffins, family, and the desires of his own heart. I can't wait to get my hands on the sequel!
The Scourge
By Jennifer A. Nielsen
The definition of scourge: [skurj] “a cause of affliction or calamity.” All Ani Mells wanted was a perfectly, ripe vinefruit to eat- which requires climbing skill…. And so she had set off to climb the vines, but instead she had overheard a conversation between two wardens… Let me start off with some background history… There are the River People also known as “grubs”and the opulent citizens or townsfolk also known as “pinchworms.” They have a mutual dispute… because Governor Felling kept on pushing the River People farther away where food is not as abundant compared to Marisbane- also the main reason why is because “history shows that the River People was the pivotal point of contracting the Scourge” (which could leadt o the deterioration of many villages). However, the Governor released new information that the Scourge is back… and in order to protect those who did not have the Scourge, the victims would be tested for this disease, and if they tested positive, then they would be sent to the Colony until they lived their short life. The Colony is a former prison cell where they quarantine all citizens who contracted the Scourge. So going back to the summary… Ani is starving and she found her ambrosia, the vinefruit… and after she climbed up the vine, she did obtain her goal (to eat food), however she gets caught by the Warden by a bird- yes, a mother bird that’s surprisingly abysmal. On the way, the Wardens are stopped by Weevil, Ani’s best friend (who is a decent pickpocketer) and encourages the Wardens to bring him along suggesting that he’s contracted the Scourge. Ani is outrageously mad that Weevil is stuck in this mess, but Weevil is happy to barge in because at least he can try to save his best friend. However when they get stuck in a prison cell, Weevil uses his adroit skills to unlock them… Which leads them to their ultimate prison escape… by then Weevil and Ani had split while Ani stopped to think about whether to help a girl that looked a couple of years older than her… However her wishful thinking got her nowhere because the Wardens had captured both, Ani and Della. Inside the cell they are being placed in, there’s a huge quarrel between them… until the testing day… On that day, both girls were tested positive for the Scourge where they had to drink a liquid… which means they were both shipped to the Colony. On their way there… they get stopped by Weevil again which meant he was able to go to the Colony with them… So as they reached the Colony, everybody was given medicine which could help alleviate the pain… However Della’s medicine was lost after Ani pushed her and Della stole Ani’s medicine…. It looks like they’re troublesome girls- but they do have hearts like gold and they are very compassionate, potent, and brave- especially Ani. The only way to get inside the infirmary (which is the place where people go inside, but never comes back) is if one is broken, and Ani believes she’ll never be broken… However on her first day Ani gets in trouble for pushing off Della… Where the Wardens got to “break their friendship” which led them to escape their slashings… (I’m just glad that they are the truest of friends… because one should know that if two people are truly best friends… a dispute will only make them stronger together, not annihilate their friendship). So a couple of days later, they made “cave friends” where they found Della’s lover...and before that… Ani sneaks inside the Warden’s room to explore why they never contracted the Scourge even though they were surrounded by them… but they found no medicine… which was very bizarre… which led to another important discovery… (gasp)... I profusely apologize for stopping this summary because SPOILER ALERT…. And I covered the necessities… I know the beginning might start a little slow- but don’t dismiss it right away, because trust me… it get’s amazing… (Also one huge tip, don’t let the governor fool you!) This story shows courage and pure perseverance… This story also entails a strong friendship, which I completely adored about this book… I highly recommend… A sweet book encompassing determination and strong bonds with a dystopian scene… Please read this amazing book.... Because “We are the Scourge.”
Short
By Holly Goldberg Sloan
I really thought this was a barrier breaking book. It helped me to see people who are short in a better light. It helped me realize the world from a different point of view! In the book Short, a girl named Julia Marks wants to have a summer of just writing letters to her friends and relaxing. But this is dream is crushed, because she has to try out for a university performance, and she makes it! This turns out to be a problem early, but she meets new friends along the way, like a artistic neighbor named Mrs. Chang, and she starts to enjoy and have pride in the performance! This book helped me learn to see the world in a optimistic point of view. An example of this was when Julia met Olive, an adult who was short. Olive knew that people would look at her often, but she let it go, and didn't get angry! I would definitely recommend this book to my friends, because I feel that it would inspire them, no matter how tall or short they are. Because of the inspiration I felt when reading this book, I rate it 5 out of 5 stars.
