Gulliver's Travels gives an account of an Englishman (Gulliver, of course) who goes on voyages but is very unlucky. He meets (famously) Liliputians, the small people; Brobdinagians (the big people); Laputans and Balinarbians; and Hounyhnms, the virtuous talking horses. Through these travels, Jonathan Swift, the Irish writer of satire, weaves in criticisms of the world during the 18th century, criticizing the following: Whigs, Hanoverians, people from the Netherlands, and Europeans. It is interesting to read all the brilliant sarcastic ways things are allegorized in this book. The sheer absurdity of some events was diverting too. For example, LIliput battles its rival, Blefuscu based solely on the "correct" method of cracking eggs, and Gulliver urinates on the place in a noble attempt to put out a fire, and is promptly sentenced to blinding and slow starvation. Of course, you will have to read the book to realize all of its brilliance. But as this book does not have dialogue, only long monologues without even quotation marks, and because the sentences are long, and semicolons put in at strange places, this is not so quick to read. This, I know, will detract from the reading experience of some. But if you are prepared, you should read these pages and bask in its deep glory, irony, and wit. I especially recommend it to people who like reading classics or are prepared to think while they are reading. Lastly, I recommend that you read it with some footnotes to understand political references, such as the Sterling Edition, which also has good printing and large font.

This book is amazing! Coming from a One Direction fan I thought I knew everything about 1-D. But after reading this book I now know everything about 1-D! I recommend this book because it gives you great info! I did some research on the facts and all of them were true! This band is the "Greatest Of All Time!"

Rick Riordan kicks off his new book series with his first book of The Gods of Asgard Series! Magnus Chase, a homeless teenager who became when his mother Natalie died, soon discovers his other parent; his father is the god Frey! He also learns that his two best friends, Hearthstone and Blitzen are an elf (Hearth), and a dwarf (Blitz). As his world gets turns upside down, his Uncle Randolph suddenly appears, saying that there family had attracted the gods for many generations. He wants Magnus to find the sword that he has lost his family for while searching. While on a bridge to fetch the sword from the Boston Harbor, a fire giant attacks, killing Magnus right after Magnus finds Sumbrander, the sword (aka Jack). Samirah, a Valkyrie, takes him to Valhalla, the land of deceased heroes, where he is told he wasn't meant to die, but cannot go back to the living because he has already seen Valhalla. As the story continues, Magnus and his friends are put on quest to stop Fenris Wolf from breaking his chains and starting Ragnarok. Riordan uses humor to smooth out all of parts that might be scary for some readers making it the perfect read! I rate this book 5 stars because it is the perfect blend of funny, scary, and , of course, mythology!

This book is one of the sadder books in the baby sitters club series. In this book, Stacey is moving back to New York City. Stacey doesn't know hoe to feel. On one side, she is happy to be returning to New York City, but she has finally started to feel like Stoneybrook is her home. One thing is for sure... the baby sitters cub will never forget Stacey.

This book represents the awkwardness of growing up. Margaret is experiences this difficulties that all of us girls can relate to. Judy Blume's heartwarming and interesting touch kept me from putting this book down. And the religious aspect, absolutely outstanding! Margaret's parents are Atheist, or don't believe in God. Margaret secretly prays to the God she felt is there in her heart, rather than what she learned from her parents. This book teaches us that growing up is difficult and that we aren't alone.

Scarlet This is one of my all time favourite books, it is mainly aimed at higher aged children 10+ and is dramatic and has a deep story line. The author writes it so that you know exactly how the main character feels. This is one of my favourite books by Cathy cassidy (I have nearly read them all!) and I truly recommend it.

4 best friends. 4 different destinations for the summer. 1 pair of magical pants. This is a recipe for a summer Carmen, Tibby, Lena, and Bridget will never forget!! The 4 friends are all going different places for the first time in their lives this summer. It’s going to be very different. On their last day together before parting ways, they find a seemingly normal pair of pants in Carmen’s closet. But when they try them on, they realize the pants fit everyone perfectly!!! They must be magic, because they all have different body types and heights. They decide to send the pants back and forth during the summer so they can each have some of its luck. Get ready for a wild ride, because this book has a lot of fun and energy inside! I personally really enjoyed this book, but it does have some mature content, so I recommend it for grades 8 and up, maybe 7th grade if you are a mature reader. What will the Pants have in store for you?? :)

The story about Black Beauty had been started when he was just a foal. He was described as a horse with black coat, along with the black mane. But once when he got older, he got sold to many different hands (people who works with horses) such like; Squire and Lady Gordon, Miss W--, Miss Anna, etc. Beauty also friends with other horses; Merrylegs, Ginger, and Captain. Even though this book is fictional but the way the author, Anna Sewell wrote about Black Beauty has just felt so real. I had really enjoyed this book and this book would be perfect for any horses-lovers. - Happy Reading!
