Popular: Vintage Wisdom for a Modern Geek

By Maya Van Wagenen

I found this book on a trip to Michigan in a cozy little bookstore, and this ended out to be a hysterically wonderful surprise! I still have my copy, and it's taught me much importance about staying true to myself. Popular isn't a theme, it's a category, but,... not unless you're happy with being an outsider.

Stormbreaker (Alex Rider)

Stormbreaker (Alex Rider)

By Anthony Horowitz

Stormbreaker is a scientific and adventure novel by Anthony Horowitz and is the most thrilling book I've read this semester. The character, Alex Rider, is a normal teen who lives with his uncle. But after his uncle's death, he founds out that his uncle is a secret agent and soon carries on his mission. Along the way, he faces different challenges and has to figure out how to save the world before the Stormbreaker computers "invade" Earth. I really like Alex because he is really brave, strong, intelligent, and is always up for a new challenge. One of my favorite scenes is when he is almost killed by Baron, but one of the workers help him escape. I was super nervous when I was reading that chapter and it was really a cliff-hanger that I didn't expect. This book is perfect for teens that like sci-fi but more realistic than fantasies, it's an amazing book!

The Smartest Kid in the Universe

By Chris Grabenstein

The Smartest id in the Universe is a great start to the brand new series by Chris Grabenstein, the author of the Lemoncello series and other amazing books. Jake is a slacker. He is a cool kid who doesn't put much effort into school. He doesn't care about academics, but that changes when he eats some jelly beans at his mom's work. Being careless, Jake doesn't look at the label, and it turns out those jellybeans were knowledge enhancers. Now Jake knows almost everything in the world, and people are starting to get suspicious. He excels on the IQ tests, and even signs up for the Quiz Bowl with his best friend and crush. But when his crush starts to tell about a tale and how the principle is going to shut down the school, it's up to Jake to use his newfound intelligence to save his school and his crush's legacy. Will he be able to outsmart everyone in his school to save it, or will his knowledge fail him and his friends? I really enjoyed this book because of the idea and humor this book presented. I recommend this book to readers!

Seedfolks

Seedfolks

By Paul Fleischman

Brady

This is the worst book I’ve ever read. A complete and utter waste of time and effort. Literally nothing happens. There is 0 plot. It introduces characters (who are poorly written in the first place) and immediately gets rid of them. There is no conflict or even resolution. They set up one, but it’s immediately thrown out along with the character it’s set up with. It’s a hollow shell of a book with a hollow shell of a message that makes everyone love this book for no good reason. It plays the whole “be nice to people and be with your communities” message, but because of the terrible writing this message just feels so hollow. Like it was thrown in just to get people to like the book. It sadly worked. This book gets a 0 out of any amount of stars.
