Waste of Space (Moon Base Alpha)

Waste of Space (Moon Base Alpha)

By Stuart Gibbs

This is the 3rd and final installment in the Moon Base Alpha series by Stuart Gibbs, and this book was a great conclusion to this series. Dash Gibson is celebrating his birthday, which isn't very exciting as you would think. But his parents are making it work, by getting him candy and letting him go on the moon to play catch, but when Nina catches them, they know they are in trouble. Only thing is, they are not. Instead, Nina needs Dash to solve a case. Lars has been poisoned, and now it's Dash who needs to solve the case before more people get sick. But Dash doesn't want. The only reason he is is because Nina is threatening him to, because if he doesn't, his family may never be able to go home. Will Dash solve the case of who poisoned Lars, or will his family, and many others, continue to be in danger of food poisoning? Stuart Gibbs did it again in this final book in the MBA series, and I give it 4 starts for the mystery and action that took place!

The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making

The Girl Who Circumnavigated Fairyland in a Ship of Her Own Making

By Catherynne M. Valente

12-year-old September gets whisked out of her bedroom window to Fairyland by the Green Wind. That might seem super fun to you and me, but September has her troubles. She stumbles upon the peculiar witches Hello, Goodbye, and Manythanks. Goodbye asked her to fetch a spoon the evil ruler of Fairyland, the Marquess, had taken. So off September goes on her quest. On the way to the Marquess's palace she meets the dragon-like creature Wyvern who September decides to call Ell. His real name is A-through-L, because when he was a young dragon he lived a an old yet homey library and only made it through the encyclopedias A-through-L. Ask him anything that begins with a letter within range, and he'll answer it. His wings are bound up in chains from the Marquess. The duo continue on the quest and arrive at a cove of cages, where only one is filled. A little boy named Saturday with pale blue skin vacates that one lonely cage. September ignores all warnings and breaks Saturday out. Saturday can grant wishes if he is beaten in a wrestling match fair and square. Now, the trio travel along to fulfill the quest. September meets the Marquess, a horrible little girl who couldn't be much older than September herself. The Marquess tries to sweet talk September but ends up sending her oin another quest, one to get a sword for her. If the quest isn't fulfilled in 7 days, they die. On this journey, September endures even more- for example, becoming a tree! Yikes! Then her new friends are captured and she has no choice but to circumnavigate Fairyland in a ship of her own making (hence the title). Shivering and starving, can September free her friends before time runs out? I really liked this book, 4/5 stars. I feel like the book started way too quickly though (she gets taken to Fairyland literally on the first page with practically no background of her life at home) Other than that, a great book!

Wimpy Kid Box of Books 1-7 + DIY + Journal (Diary of a Wimpy Kid)

By Jeff Kinney

Christopher

Diary of a Wimpy Kid is good, it is realistic fiction. They have the best series, they are Diary of a Wimpy kid, The Ugly Truth, Cabin Fever, The Last Straw, The Third Wheel, Dog Days, The Long Haul, and Old School. I like the series cause they are one of the funniest books they even have good drawings, and a lot of details. The main characters are Greg, Rowley, Mom, Dad, Manny, and Rowley. The author is Jeff Kinney, he is a good author. The book made me laugh because one time Greg did not wanted to get the shoes dirty outside so he walks on grass instead in the sidewalk. I recommend it for everyone, you should get this book. They just made a new one called “Old School”. If you read all the series you can also read Big Nate series they are good too.

Russian Roulette: The Story of an Assassin (Alex Rider)

Russian Roulette: The Story of an Assassin (Alex Rider)

By Anthony Horowitz

I thought this book was really good and I was very amazed how Anthony Horowitz still managed to make it good even though it was in a completely different perspective. I also thought that it was cool how Yassen was the hero and once actually had emotion. What happens is that his hometown, Estrov gets destroyed. He escapes to Moscow where he begins a life of crime with some new friends but quickly came to an end when he got kidnapped by a man named Vladimir Sharkovsky. He managed to escape and found Scorpia and Julia Rothman and gets trained in Malagasto. I thought that Anthony developed Yassen super well and we got to learn a lot about him. It makes me like Yassen more than before because I use to dislike him. It made me appreciate him and it also made me realize why he became such an emotionless killer. I felt that he is a good man inside or at least he was once a good man. But this was an action packed awesome novel that I loved and finished very quickly.

Scheme Spirit (Cinderella Cleaners #5)

By Maya Gold

I think this is such a great book. I always wanted to go to a prep school. For me its easy to feel like I'm in my characters shoes. By reading this book it kind of made me feel like I was really Dianna. This book made me feel nervous, thrilled and excited.

Kingdom Keepers: Disney After Dark

Kingdom Keepers: Disney After Dark

By Ridley Pearson

In my opinion, this book had some positives and negatives, so I'll be writing this review in that format. Positives: This book has a really cool, unique plot, not like anything I've seen before. Also, there aren't really any moments in the book where things aren't full of action, meaning you won't get too bored while reading this. Negatives: Since the book went quickly, it missed a few points that would have really helped to make things make sense. See, the author never really explains how things happen. The characters just set a plan to go somewhere and end up there, but there's no in-between. Also, the characters don't have much depth to them, and the girl characters are usually overlooked! There isn't much attention put on them! Also, this book was quite confusing. I think since it was quite a quick read for me, that stopped it from being anywhere near as confusing as some books I've read, but still, it's just not one of my favorites. Overall, I was expecting a lot more from this book. I've been wanting to read it for a while now, but I'm kinda disappointed. I must say though, Amanda and Finn would be a cute couple!

Drama

Drama

By Raina Telgemeier

I like all of Rain Telgermens books. This 1 is 1 of the best. I take acting and love graphic novels, so i picked it up. I flipped through the pages and it looked good. It was normal till Kelly met Justin and Jessy. When Justin tells Kelly something (i won't spoil). It gets crazy . Later on at the performance getting 1 prop ready is hard. Don't forget what Justin tells kelly when he wants to take a (still won't say) to the dance. And give or take dumps his date for someone els. Then Kelly gets the guy she WANTED she doesn't care. Then The End, Good show ppl
