National Geographic Readers: Titanic
By Melissa Stewart
This was a very sad story. The Titanic was a beautiful ship and there was tons of people on it. You would think the captain would have more life boats so everyone could have been saved.
What Was the Titanic?
By Stephanie Sabol, Who HQ
This was a very good book because, the Titanic took several years to build and was called, "The Unsinkable." I would recommend this book to many friends. It was a sad, thrilling, informational book. It showed all the people desperately trying to get on an emergency boat. It showed many shooting stars signaling many people had died.

Atlas of the Universe (Insiders)
By Mark A. Garlick
I really like this book because it's a way that I can learn more about space and the universe all the planets, stars, zodiac signs and our solar system. This is a very good book for those who have interest towards our galaxy and Universe. You can learn about our inner planets and outer planets and how the planets in our solar system were named after Gods and much, much more.
Restore Me (Shatter Me)
By Tahereh Mafi
Wow. No words. This book though heavy on government and politics was easy to race through. I thoroughly cannot wait to read Book 5!
Shadow Me (Shatter Me Novella Book 3)
By Tahereh Mafi
Actual rating - 3.75( more of three star than 4 though) This honestly wasn't really amazing. It was pretty repetitive, especially after reading Restore Me. This is not really one of the more necessary novellas.
Fever 1793
By Laurie Halse Anderson
Fever 1793 brings the terrible yellow fever to life with a plotline full of sadness, violence, terror; the story of Matilda "Mattie" Cook. Any student who loves to learn about history will appreciate the full story of this book, but viewing as strictly an education historical fiction is not doing its suspenseful, action-packed, amazing story justice. This book has so much excitement, emotion, and adrenaline-pumping action that even a history-hating reluctant reader will devour the story. I love Fever 1793 because it lets the reader see the yellow fever outbreak in a new incarnation. Even if you're already familiar with this historical event, reading Fever 1793 will let you hear the events you know in a new, exciting, interesting way. This book, narrated in the first person by Mattie, the protagonist, makes the reader feel as though her or she personally knows the struggles of a child or teen living during the yellow fever outbreak. It gives a glimpse into the devouring fears, nightmarish scenes, and body-filled, filthy streets of some places in America in 1793. The reader will be left with lingering, longing desires to read this book again and again. If you enjoy books that are gripping, realistic, bloody, emotional, and nightmarish like I do, you will thoroughly enjoy your reading of Fever 1793. Even if violence or disease scares you, I encourage you to try reading Fever 1793. It has a value in both interesting and educational departments, and I think it could be enjoyed by any reader at all.
The School is Alive!: A Branches Book (Eerie Elementary #1)
By Jack Chabert
"School just got scarier!"- Sam Graves is Eerie Elementary's hall monitor. He has to wear an orange sash. On his first day as hall monitor, Sam Graves discovers that his school is alive and is hungry for kids! Only Sam can defeat the school, and his friends decide to help, too! The story ends like a normal book, but the middle was great! The book was very quick, but still enjoyable. The beginning was good but I think the rest is better. My favorite part is when Antonio's PB&J sandwich saves his friends.. The drawings are really good and probably took a while to work on! I would say it would take 40+ minutes to read this book. I loved how there was an illustration on every page. Jack Chabert and Sam Ricks published this book on June 24, 2014. Jack Chabert was once a hall monitor just like Sam, but his school was not alive. Today, Jack Chabert monitors the halls a different building: an apartment. Sam Ricks went to a haunted grade school, but just like Jack's school, it was not alive. He teaches illustration and design at an art institute. At the end of the book, Sam knew it would be a while before the school strikes again, so he has a lot of time to train himself before the school rises again! I think the book would be better if there was little minions that Sam had to fight, but even without them it is still an amazing book! I am looking forward to reading the second book of the Eerie Elementary series! I enjoyed this book and I give a 5/5. I recommend this book to anybody who thinks school is scary enough.
A Dog's Purpose
By W. Bruce Cameron
One dog, three different lives, and one ultimate purpose to find! I just finished this book and it was so touching and just totally great! An intelligent dog trying to find his purpose in life ends up having 3 lives to fulfill it! Each life is different, including Bailey, the perfect golden retriever pup, to Ellie, a German Shepard, who is part of the K9 unit at the police station! I, for one, got really emotional at several parts in the book! There is adventure, drama, suspense, comedy... practically everything wrapped up with a bow and handed to you in one amazing, heartfelt book. This will change the way you look at dogs forever. I would recommend it to readers 5th grade and up!
