Hoot

Hoot

By Carl Hiaasen

Hoot Is a great book with lots of adventure. I'd have to admit is is a little hard to follow because it is two stories in one book. This book makes you laugh, get mad, and just be scared for the characters. Hoot is a story that will make your day. The chapters are quite long so this is not a book for beginner readers. One of the stories is about two nemisises, Roy and Dana. Roy get Dana arrested. Mullet fingers is Roy's other friend who turns out to be Roys worst enemies step brother. ( Worst enemy = Beatrice). This is an amazing book and I recommend it to all readers who like a mystery with some rebellion mixed in.

This book features a 14 year old spy named Alex Rider swinging back to action. During this book Alex face up a man called Dr. Grief, and Mrs. Stellenbosch who runs an finishing school in French Alps.

In this story, the animals are not happy because the bear is stealing their trees. This book is interesting. In the book, all the characters live under a tree. It is like a secret underground house. I think you should read this book.

Bad Luck (The Bad Books)

Bad Luck (The Bad Books)

By Pseudonymous Bosch

Como C. Llama is the best! We loved this series!!!! 6 year old only wanted to review this series. 8 year old started collecting llamas because of Como, a beloved character. 11 year old and Mom all loved this series, many laughs were had, a bit of nail biting, but mostly just adventure and mystery and we didn't want it to end. My, now 9 year old has written reports on this series, because it was truly a joy to read.

We Were Liars

We Were Liars

By E. Lockhart

We Were Liars is fascinating. The writing style is very concise, and while there is fabulous description of the island that the Sinclairs occupy every summer, there's also an underlying eerie note that makes it all the more interesting to read about. The setting seems intricately real, what with the shimmering waters and the seashells and ice cream. Cadence, Mirren, Johnny, and Gat are easily distinguishable and entertaining. The gradual family tension among the Sinclairs is well-developed, and the plot twist at the end had me reeling. However, I definitely didn't like this book right from the start. The writing is a bit peculiar and jerky at times, and Cadence (who narrates the story) seemed quite whiny. I did warm up to the novel once more problems were woven into the plot. Sometimes, though, there was a weird feeling, as if these problems weren't as big as they really were. For example, the twist at the end was executed in an almost anticlimactic way. It's sort of just...confusion for a few chapters or so. Once I understood, though, I really liked the ending. Overall, I would definitely recommend this book as a lighter read, though I did have a few problems with it. The descriptions are marvelous and the overall idea is very unique.

Thea Stilton and the Mystery in Paris (Geronimo Stilton Special Edition)

Thea Stilton and the Mystery in Paris (Geronimo Stilton Special Edition)

By Thea Stilton

In this special edition novel of the beloved Thea Stilton series, the Thea Sisters are off to Paris! They're prepared for a nice, long, relaxing vacation - but what they receive is far from their expectations. First, on their plane ride, a storm jags the airplane up and down, scaring the cheese out of the mouselets. Then, when they arrive in Paris to live with Colette's fashion-designer friend Julie, they realize that Julie's designs have been stolen! Though their "relaxation" has been tainted, the Sisters are determined to track down the design thief in time to showcase Julie's clothing in her school fashion show. Fun and exciting, this book is great for younger audiences and people interested in interactive books.
