I am a BIG fan of the Harry Potter series! It’s about this boy named Harry who lives with his mean aunt, uncle, and cousin. Then, on his birthday, he learns the truth about what really happened to his parents, and found out he was (and still is) a wizard! He gets to go to Hogwarts, a school for witchcraft and magic! On his first day, he picks Gryffindor, the brave, which is one of the four houses. He makes friends with Ron and Hermione, who are also in his house. He also learns about You-Know-Who, aka. Voldemort (who, by the way, has no nose 😂), and is determined to find out the secret behind the evil antagonist/villain. I would recommend this book, and the whole series to people who like fantasy and adventure! I’ve read all the books so far, and I’ll give it a five star! 🤩

To be honest, I absolutely love the I Survived series. The whole series is basically in the point of view of a person who survived a war, a horrible event, a terrorism attack, etc. It's basically a history book, but it sounds like a narrative and it's really to-the-point. This book is about Lucas, who loves football. When he gets a concussion during practice, the doctor says that his concussion is really bad for an 11-year-old. Lucas' parents decide that the sport is too dangerous, now that he has a concussion. Lucas has to talk to Uncle Benny, who taught him everything about football. He hopes that Uncle Benny can change his parents' mind. So, Lucas skips school and visits Uncle Benny (who is a firefighter in New York) and his dad, who works with Uncle Benny in the fire department. While they are talking, they were heading toward the Twin Towers when the first plane crashed! Uncle Benny and the firefighters (including Lucas' dad) tries to save as many people as they can. Lucas, on the other hand, tries to help as best as he can, but the room they are in collapses! Will everyone (or anyone) get out alive? Read this book to find out. I would not recommend this book to younger readers, because this is a very serious topic and not appropriate for them. Even though this was a short read, it made plenty of emotions rush through me - fear, angst, horror, and even happiness and relief. It kept me on the edge of my seat and I wept a little wept occasionally. One more thing: terrorism is an awful, awful thing, and I just hope that we can achieve world peace one day. Even if we do have one golden minute of world peace, I feel everything would crumble down again.. I'm sorry. I love this book, but I would subtract one star for not having a very good base or anything I can connect to.

The Summer I Turned Pretty is one of the most amazing books I've read this year. Belly is finally going to be old enough to fit in with Conrad, Jeremiah, and her brother. Every summer she expects Conrad to notice her, but he never did. This summer, Conrad changed completely, he starts to smoke and stops talking to everyone, but so did Belly, she became pretty and her whole summer becomes out of control. I think my favourite character will definitely be Jeremiah because he's very friendly, humorous, and is always there for Belly to be her best friend no matter what. Whenever Belly is feeling down, he is there to solver her problems. I also love how the author uses many throwback chapters to let people know how much they have grown and to let us see what memories made Belly the person she is today. People should definitely read this book, Belly faces many problems that teens today can also experience, such as crush problems, puberty, friendship, and mostly growth. If you've read To All The Boys I Loved Before also by Jenny Han, you will love this book for sure!

Christmas is almost here and the Heffley family is way behind on all things Christmas and they want to get away. Even though Greg thinks it's not a good idea as he is perfectly happy staying indoors by the fireplace all through Christmas break, his family decides to go to Isla de Corales for the Christmas and be away from the excruciating cold. They are all packed and they leave for the airport but without taking in consideration all the traffic they will get. They make it to the airport and hit snag after snag. After lots of bumps, they make it to Isla de Corales and instantly they feel better as the hot air hits them. But family holidays aren't family holidays until there is a lot of bickering and that's exactly what ensues. Greg's mother wants the family to spend time together but Greg's dad wants to do his own thing and Rowley wants to do his own thing too. Greg is looking to do lots of cool activities so that he can finally show Rowley that he had stellar time on his getaway. Let's just say that short of getting thrown in jail, the Heffley family gets in all sorts of trouble. I don't know what it is about the Heffely family holidays that they remind me so much of my family holidays. From not leaving for the airport in enough time to end up sitting on the plane in the middle of a different family to getting lost at the resort to birds eating our lunch to not be able to get a single decent family photo are all so relatable and not to mention hilarious. I loved this. 5 stars

The book ''Blubber'' is a book that I think kids of every age and grade should read in one point in their life. It tells kids how it feels to tease somebody else and feel how exactly like to be the target. The book was ok, it was not one of my favorites but I still think it should be reccomended. In this book I will be telling you in this bok review, about some of the things I liked and did not like about this book. One thing that I liked is that the way how Linda one of the characters that got bullied handlded it. Linda would indeed cry when some of her classmates teased her but there were times when she was brave to keep on comming to school. If it was me I don't think that I would ever want to go back. In order to support this statement, it says in page 133 ''...my mother is going to drive me to school from now on'' Linda said after telling her mom about getting teased. A next thing that Iliked about this book was Jill the main character and her friend Tracy and how they are best friends. They both are best friends and I love it how they just know that they are meant to be best friends and to be honest with you it kind of reminds me of me and my best friends. But to prove Tracy's and Jill's friendship it says on pages 155-156 ''Some people are always changing best friends. I'm glad me and Tracy aren't that way.'' Those are two of the very few things that I liked about this book. I have a few negatives dealing with this book and one of them are is that Jill's parents don't exactly punish her the right way. I will prove this statement on page''But you will have to face the consquences.'' Jill's dad said after Jill put rotten eggs in someone;s mailbox. But I felt Jill should of at least of gotten grounded to make it more realistic. One more negative thing is that Jill at first was a little nice to Linda but then got way too mean. In order to prove that Jill was becoming to mean it says''Tracy had a blue chalk with her and she snapped it in half and both of us laughed like crazy as we wroteBlubber lives here all over the street.'' Blubber is Linda's nick name. Who knew a 5th grader could be so mean, right? Even though I personally did not like this book all that much, but I think people of all ages should read it becuase it will tell them how it may feel like your powerful teasing somebody but you could also be in a spot where you are the one being teased non-stop. So... let's all help the world stop with the terrible situation with bullying!

I won this book through A DOGO book giveaway, and I absolutely loved it! I finished the entire book in one day because it was really captivating! There were so many facts about money I didn't know, and I got to earn all kinds of cool things like mining for cryptocurrency and new money robots that are being built! You even get to learn about how space will use money in the future and how back in the olden days, there were 1,000 dollar U.S. bills! I recommend this book to anyone willing to learn about their money, because not only does this book teach you what you need to know, but it also captures your attention and makes you wonder more about our economic system, as well as the rest of the world!
