Al Capone Does My Shirts (Tales from Alcatraz)
By Gennifer Choldenko
This was a decent book. I was reading it with my reading class, lol. So Moose is forced to move to Alcatraz Island for his dad's job: which is a guard for the jail. Moose's sister: Natalie has autism and is hopefully attending the Esther P. Marinoff school soon. Moose also meets Piper; the Warden's daughter who is bossy and comes up with risky plans. The criminals on Alcatraz are also required to make dinner and do the laundry and Piper comes up with a plan: a laundry business at Moose's and her school. Moose also meets Theresa who is a sassy yet cute girl who always follows Moose and Natalie around. So Moose tries to stay out of trouble on the Island, but that's pretty much impossible with Piper and her plans and his sister Natalie who he always has to keep his eye on.

Wilder Boys
By Brandon Wallace
I enjoyed reading Wilder Boys. It's about these two brothers, Jake and Taylor, who's mom is really sick and who's dad left their home in Pittsburgh several years earlier to go explore the wilderness in Wyoming. When they discover a dangerous secret that Bull, their mother's boyfriend, is hiding, they decide they have no choice but to go find their dad with only his old letters and journal to help them. It's a long and dangerous journey in the wilderness, and, what's more, people are looking for them. I thought it was really exciting and adventurous.
The Cupcake Club: Peace, Love, and Cupcakes
By Sheryl Berk, Carrie Berk
I loved Peace, Love, and Cupcakes! I thought it was so cool that a mother and daughter wrote it. The characters in the club are all so different but they got along so well. They all helped each other so much. I didn't like Meredith and her club. I couldn't stop reading it. It's not hard and a short book. Now, I'm on to the 2nd one!

Paper Things
By Jennifer Richard Jacobson
This book is talking about a brother and sister, they promise their mother they will always be together and help each other. This is four years ago, their mother’s last wishes before she die. Even after so many years they still remember this deal. The older brother Gage decided to move out when he was 18, he still take his sister Ari with him. I choose this book because it was interesting and touched. After so many years they can still remember the deal with their mother. And I was interested about after they moved out, where can they stay, and where they get money. If you like to read this kind of touching story, I will suggest you to read it.
The Sands of Shark Island (School Ship Tobermory)
By Alexander McCall Smith
DDDDD
she book is so cute and interesting
Shark Girl
By Kelly Bingham
I read the book Shark Girl by Kelly Bingham. The book Shark Girl is about a girl who gets attacked by a shark. Jane has to live without an arm now. She faces many challenges with her new disability, but through it all she is the same Jane she always was. I liked this book because it showed that anything can happen to anyone. It wasn't Jane's fault that she lost her arm but it did happen and there is nothing she could have done. I really like this book because even though she let everyone around think she gave up art, on the inside she never did. This book is realistic fiction because it can happen to anyone. It might not seem very common or realistic but it really can happen. Jane was in the wrong place at the wrong time and that happens to everybody. I think it is more of a girly book because it is about a girl but, anyone can read it. It's more for teenagers because it is kind of disturbing in the beginning. Also if you like sharks or heroic stories you would like this book. When Jane got attacked by a shark that was showing external conflict because it was man vs. nature. She also faced a lot of internal conflict, losing a part of her was very hard for her and she struggled trying be be normal again. She knew deep down that she would never be treated the same.
Bras & Broomsticks (Magic In Manhattan)
By Sarah Mlynowski

I thought this was a really good book and I was very thankful that I read it. It is about a kid named Jayson Barnes, and he is really good at basketball. But unfortunately, something really bad happened to him, his mother died from using drugs and his mother's boyfriend, Richie abandoned him, leaving him alone in his apartment. He does good living by himself, stealing to eat but one day, his teacher asks him when he will get new basketball shoes. So he attempts to steal new ones, but get's caught. He is put in a new rich family, and now has to live with them. He gets put in a new team in a new school, and a whole new environment, but many new opportunities have come up. I really liked it and it was a very interesting book.
