Savvy

Savvy

By Ingrid Law

"Climbing into bed on the night before my very own most important birthday, after an evening of Miss Rosemary's meat loaf and interference, I did not pray for a powerful savvy like Rocket's or X-Ray vision or the ability to run super-fast or to breathe underwater. I had just two simple wishes - the first one was for Father to be alright and the second wish, the second wish was that no one - no one - would come to my birthday party." Mibs Beaumont is no ordinary teenager. From her brother Rocket who can control electricity to her brother Fish who can control water telepathically, each member of her family has a special power - a savvy. Mibs had always wished for a powerful savvy, like Fish's savvy and Rocket's savvy. But disaster struck when her father was injured severely in a car crash, and there's no way to tell if he's going to live or not. All Mibs wishes for on her thirteenth birthday (the number 13 is important in this story because it's always when a member of the Beaumont family gets their savvy) is to have a savvy that can wake her Papa up. But when the interfering and meddlesome priest's wife, Ms. Rosemary, plans a birthday party for Mibs in the church (with almost every teenager and child in the town attending), Mibs believes that her savvy is waking up people and animals because she thought she woke up her little brother Samson's turtle and her baby sister in the morning. But more importantly, maybe her savvy is saving Papa! Mibs climbs onto a tour bus delivering pink Bibles, with Fish, Samson, and the priest's kids, Will and Bobbi in tow. The tour bus is driven by Lester Swan, who has a weak heart and can't say no when the kids tell him that Mibs is going to see her father in a hospital in Kansas. But as she hears tattoos on Bobbi and Lester begin to move and talk, Mibs learns that her savvy is just making ink-based marks on skin speak and move. Now they're in serious trouble - her savvy isn't going to wake up Papa after all! As they travel on towards the hospital, Lester picks up Lill Kiteley, a kind, fun woman who's car was broken down and she couldn't get to her job in a restaurant, so Lester offers to drive her there. On the long way to the restaurant and hospital (getting delayed, huh..) the children and the adults warm to each other and they become a sort of a family. But do some of the characters have secrets? Will's hiding something from Mibs, what is it? Is Bobbi such a tough, harsh girl on the inside? Do Will and Mibs have "feelings" for each other? And what happens when the police catches up and thinks Lill and Lester kidnapped the children? How will they ever get to the hospital now? And if they get there, will Mibs' papa ever wake up? Hmm.. I don't know quite what to say about this particular book. It made tears well up and drop on the pages, because it was so sad. In some bits, it made me laugh jubilantly because it seemed like they finally got their happy ending. This book was full of many twists and turns and it surprised me so many times! I love that Mibs is a strong, independent, witty, reckless, and overall amazing character. These are characters you'd see once in a lifetime in books - they are so defined, they have their own personalities, they seem so "alive" and three-demensional.. I love the relationships between the different characters too... most of the characters are great role models, since they are kind, charismatic, and plain funny sometimes! :giggles: But most of all, it made me cry - it wasn't particularly a sad book, but it made me really sad because I could relate, and I knew all the problems Mibs was going through. It seemed so realistic that I wanted to reach out and comfort her. In the end, the lesson was that EVERYONE is special in your own way - you all have savvies. It doesn't have to cause earthquakes, control electricity, or make you fly. It just shows who you are and you should be proud of that. It is a charming book about uniqueness, faith, and growing up. Read! It just might change the way you look at the world :)

Guts

Guts

By Raina Telgemeier

Guts by Raina Telegeimer astounds me! Mainly because this book goes on a more personal level when talking about fears and anxieties. It an absolutely amazing story that is a must-read! Raina is in fourth grade, she is a shy self-consious nervous girl! After the rounds of stomach bug hit her school she gets a new fear! A fear of throwing up. Because of that she would get sensitive on conversation topics, and it didn't help that at the time fourth grade was a "gross out contest" But her fear of vomit made a new problem. She wouldn't eat!! AT ALL!?! Beans make you gassy and that would embarrass yourself! Cheese wouldn't be good either! AND DEFINITELY NOT ARTICHOKES. And with a family that has Tacos almost every day her parents start to notice, taking her to a therapist to help her out, her new therapist tells Raina everyone has fears! And you shouldn't be afraid! This book is truly wonderful and I'd hate to spoil it! So you should definitely check it out! And the best part its a true story about the author Raina Telegeimer herself! As she says! "It takes guts to face your fears!" So if your feeling afraid of anything this book can definitely help you get some self confidence 😁❤ Happy Reading!!

Dog Days (Diary of a Wimpy Kid)

By Jeff Kinney

This book is very fun to read with. In this book, there are many stories. It is the main character, Greg's diary so those are all talking about Greg's daily life. Like what he did and what happened to him. Like for this book, Greg's family are going to buy a puppy. And they call it Sweetie. But Sweetie doesn't really like Greg, even Sweetie is greg's dog. Also it talks about what happened in Greg's birthday. For this book, other than Greg's birthday they will have the story of over the summer vacation and going to the trip with Rowley. In this book, there are many kind of stories not just only about one story. So if you don't like one of the story, you also can skip that story and go to other page and find the story that you like. So you can enjoy with this book. I will suggest you to read this book. I won't be suggesting you to read the Diary of wimpy kid from the beginning . Because you still can enjoy reading this book withour reading from the beginning.

Moon Rising (Wings of Fire, Book 6)

By Tui T. Sutherland

This is for sure one of the best books in the series! It follows Moonwatcher a Nightwing with mind reading abilities who is attending Jade Mountain Academy a school started by The Dragonets of Destiny. This book is wonderful for fantasy lovers! Moonwatcher has to hide her abilities in fear of other dragons not liking her, and that makes her shy, but at her new school there all so many potential friends in her winglet! Maybe some more than friends ;) But while she has her new friends and she is shy she is also hearing a voice... A mysterious voice she must find out who it is, but she also gathers information that Queen Scarlet is still alive and is coming back, she has to save the day! At all costs. I recommend this book for ages 10 and up for violence, other than that it is a wonderful stay up all night book!!! Happy Reading!
