The Brotherband Chronicles book 2: The Invaders

This book is the meat of the 3 book series.  It is about chasing down Raven to get the abdomal back.  They catch up in Limmat...but do they catch Raven.  Find out for yourself.  This book is a 4 1/2 of 5.

I.Q. The White House

The second book in this series is about finding the mole in the white house.  So follow Q and Angela as they pick through the White House to find out who's good and who's bad.  I give it 3 1/2 of 5.

I.Q. Independence Hall

The first book in the series was a little cleshe in its story but not bad.  In this book Q and Angela join the illusive S.O.S team to stop terrorists.  I give it 3 of 5.

The Brotherband Chronicles book 1: The Outcasts

This book is the companion series to Rangers Apprentice which are both by John Flanagan.  The main story is about the Brotherband training to become a Skandian warrior.  Brotherband training essentially where he and his fellow Brotherband members compete in a series of events in competition of 2 other teams.  This book was so amazing I read through it in a day!  Totally a 5 of 5

The Fault in Our Stars

I read this book in a matter of hours and decided that it was worth the 4-5 hours of my life.  This book is captivating from front to back with its...entertaining story.  In this wonderful book Hazel appears to be depressed in the eyes of her parents so they send her to a support group in the "literal heart of Jesus."  In the support group Hazel meets Augustus.  She and Augustus start seeing each other but not quite in the dating way.  As the book progresses they go through a series of ups and downs but they stick together through it all.  Even though there are s's, d's, gd's, misuse of God's name, one or two f bombs, and a's (in multiple forms of a such a clown) I give this book a 4 of 5

A Tale Dark & Grimm

This book is "the true story of Hansel and  Gretel."  As the story goes through Adam Gidwitz gives his personal option on different parts of the story.  His options and thoughts are in bold (so you know if you read the book).  One thing I found annoying is that throughout the beginning there were multiple "The End"'s but on the next page it would say something like "Almost" or "Well not really".  That bugged me because I never knew when the real chapter would end.  It was not what I expected (in a good way) so I give it 41/4 of 5

The legend of Jimmy Spoon

This book is one I read because I needed points for my local summer reading program.  But I'm glad I read this one over any other book because it was a good little book.  The book centers aroind Jimmy, an avarage boy who had no friends.  But one day he met some Native Americans, and from that day on his whole life changed.  The score is 3 1/2 of 5.

Allegiant

This book is the worst book EVER!!!!!!!!  The beginning-middle was ok.  But the end was horrible!!!!  Once the master plan is revealed stop reading and let your imagination run wild.  Don't read the end because it WILL RUIN THE WHOLE SERIES!  I'll give the book a generous 2 of 5 

Insurgent

This book is the follow up of Divergent.  It to is a great book.  I highly recommend it.  The ending is something I didn't expect.  But it was a good ending non the less.  4 1/2 of 5 just because to wasn't all I wanted it to be.

Divergent

This book was recommended to me by a friend so I had to read it.  And I'm so glad I did because it was a great book.  By great I mean AMAZING!!!!  The book is about a 16 year old girl who decides to transfer factions.  The first book itself is about her surviving initiation.  Easy 5 of 5.   

Conspiracy 356: Hunted

     In the most recent of the Conspiracy 356 series Hunted picked up where Missing leaves off.  In this book the mystery of the "Paradise Island" is still left hanging as this series often does.  5 of 5 because of the action, the plot twists, and the end of book cliff hanger.

Spirit Fighter

     This book was one given to me for Easter.  The author, Jerel Law, is a pastor of North Carolina.  The book has stories from the bible that make you remember them or want to read them for the first time.  The story is a great one and the background is better than most books.  The end sums up the main story pretty well but leaves room for a next book.  5 of 5

The Throne Of Fire

     This is the second book in the Kane Chronicles.  It has the same story type and Sadie and Carter still trade off the microphone (as usual).  "Riordan combines hard-hitting action scenes, powerful magic, and comic relief with the internal waves of love, jealously, and self-doubt that makes his young heroes so very human."-Booklist.  The book itself shares quiet a bit of Egyptian gods and some history.  I'm glad the author didn't add to much history but he didn't add enough so it makes me want to learn more about Egyptian gods.  It has a few weird twists but definite 5 of 5. 

The Red Pyramid

     The Red Pyramid is the first book in the Kane Chronicles.  This book is about the british kids Sadie and Carter Kane and their quest to save North America but ultimately, the world.  As soon as they learn their bloodline their lives change forever.  In this book nothing is as it seems.  Some of the stuff in the book is a little confusing but 4 3/4 of 5 

The Lance of Truth

     This book is the second in the series and it still is amazing.  I say this because people usually lose it at two.  The quest in book This series is very captivating.  I give it a 4 1/2 of 5

The Sword of Light

     This book is about King Authors daughter, Rhianna Pendragon finding Excalibur and bringing it to the place where she spent all her life, Avalon.  But things go a little hay-wire when she finds out Mordor is also after Excalibur.  Things get even more complex when Merlin tells her to meet him at the Saxon infested Camelot.  Through all the chaos I give it a 5 of 5.

Conspiracy 365:Missing

     Now this is where the series revives itself.  Missing is a great story that I think makes a great first book in the Black Ops series.  The story is just so amazing I don't even know how to put it into words.  You have to read it or yourself to comprehend its coolness.  It's not a tough choice 5 of 5

Conspiracy 365:Malice

    Malice is pretty confusing.  For one reason and one reason only, it is a first person view from Winter's side of it. In the normal series it's Cal's view of things.  But I guess it makes seance the normal series is about Cal and Malice is about Winter.  But its still confusing so 3 of 5

Conspiracy 365: Revenge

    Revenge is the first book after December and is pretty good.  But it is also the first book staring Boges and Winter.  The book puts Boges in the spot of story teller.  This gets confusing because you get so used to Cal narrating the story.  It also seems much shorter than the other books prior to it.  Even though its a little confusing its a 3 3/4 of 5  

Conspiracy 365:The main series

    Sorry but I have to sum up January-December in one post so I can move on in the series.  This review is going to be a  short one but hopefully you should want to read it for yourself. The whole series is a big mystery.  And a good one at that.  Action packed and mysterious, easy to guess 5 of 5.

Inkheart

     "Delectably thick and transfixing fantasy..."- Publishers Weekly, starred review.  I couldn't agree more, especially the part about the thickness!  It's 534 pages long!  But this book was SO amazing I read it all in 3 days.  As you could guess its a real exciting page turner with a pang of mystery as Meggie tries to find out what Capricorn is up to and stop him.  All the while she's also trying to find the truth behind all the lies that are told to her by Mo, Dustfinger, and most if all Capricorn.  Cornelia Funke is amazing at what she does as an author.  5 of 5 without a doubt.

The Giver

     I just finished this book so I'm pretty pumped about it.  I hate the ending though and am so glad there are sequels to the book.  The world itself is a little messed up, and you picture something to describe the "community" but then it shows you it's bad side and makes you go, "WHAT IN THE WORLD JUST HAPPENED HERE!!!!!!"  In summary it's a book about a guy in a messed up community getting a rare "assignment" and learning things that only really exist outside their community.  Due to its weird setting, ok storyline, and people getting "released" I give it a 3 of 5.

Swiss Family Robinson

      So I decided to read Swiss Family Robinson.  I think the author did a pretty good job on the into.  Bit he put a lot of names in the middle, even though he did that the middle was still my favorite part of the whole book.  The ending was pretty cool.  *Spoiler*. They find a girl and are rescued in a very typical way for that kind of book.  For its amazing middle covering anything bad about the book, I give a perfect 5 of 5.

Stranded 3: Survivors

     Stranded 3: Survivors is the final book in its series so of course the obvious happens.  They get rescued in the last 5 pages or something.  Typical, but I like how the author adds one last journal entry to the book.  It's a nice little touch on his part.  What would have made the whole book series better is if there were Hardy Boys style pictures.  Like a rough looking sketch of the lucky star or Buzz making/tending the fire in the second book.  But overall I'd give this typical ending last book a 4 of 5.

Stranded 2: Trail By Fire

    The second Survivors book is about the kids getting settled in to their new home, Nowhere Island.  They struggle to find food and water and are still looking for a safe shelter after a few run ins with the neighbors.  This book keeps you on your toes with just about everything they do.  The author does a great job of making a realistic book.  There are some unexpected twists like buzzes vast knowledge of wilderness survival technics.  I think it's a well deserved 4 of 5

Stranded

     The name is kind of self-explanatory.  It's a book about four kids whose ship the Lucky Star crashes on an island in the middle of nowhere.  Not a very original story type in my option.  I'd rate it a 3 of 5.
