The Capture by Kathryn Lasky
  • Soren was only three weeks old when he was
    captured from his nest by other owls. He was
    taken to a prison in the canyons called St.
    Aegolius Academy for Orphaned Owls. While he was
    there, he teamed up with another owl, Gylfie.
    Together they resist being moon blinked and
    discover the true secrets of why they are at St.
    Aggies. The tow escape and team up with Twilight
    and Digger in search of their families and the
    Great GaHoole Tree. This is a good book
    because its a fun-to-read fantasy novel about
    owls.

Cannibals by Cynthia Grant
  • This comedy is a fun book. I liked it because it
    was an upbeat novel about a cheerleader who was a
    lot like mefacing everyday complications and
    problems. Just wait til you find out where the
    title comes from.

REM World by Rodman Philbrick
  • Arthur perceives himself as being fat so he
    orders a machine that will help him lose weight.
    After not following all the directions, he finds
    himself in another world and what he does there
    will affect that world and his. This is a good
    book because its about a kid that defeats his
    won fears, and helps everyone he meets.

5
Princess in Love by Meg Cabot
  • Princess in Love is a good book. I can relate to
    some of the issues in it. Its about a junior,
    Mia, who is dating a boy named Kenny, but she
    likes a boy named Michael even better. Micheal is
    Lilys (Mias best friend) older brother. Lily
    doesnt know that Mia likes Michael.. Mis
    struggles to keep this secret from Lily and
    especially from her boyfriend, Kenny.

6
Artemis Fowlby Eoin Colfer
  • At the start of his second adventure, Artemis
    Fowl is at a boarding school in Ireland when he
    receives an urgent video email from Russia. In it
    is a plea for help from a man who has been
    kidnapped by the Russian Mafia a man who Artemis
    had thought he would never see again a man he
    knew all to well his beloved Father.
  • As Artemis rushes to his rescue, he is
    stopped by a familiar nemesis, Captain Holly
    Short of the Leprechaun Fairy police. This time
    instead of battling the fairies, he will have to
    work side by side with them. It is the only way
    to save the one person in the whole would who
    loves him.

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire by JK Rowling
  • Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire is an
    excellent book. The book is the fourth Harry
    Potter book in the series. Without telling what
    happens to Harry while going to Hogwarts, I will
    say what the book is about. This year Harry wants
    to go to the international Quidditch Cup. He is
    still studying hard to become a wizard. He has a
    huge crush on Cho Chang, a girl who goes to
    Hogwarts. He constantly has dreams about her.
  • Like always Harry is in more danger than ever.
    This time it could be deadlier than ever before.
    Once again Voldemore is back, trying to find
    Harry. Harrys friends, Hermione Ranger and Ron
    Wesley are there to help him with his adventures.
    If your want to know what goes on in the rest of
    this book, than read it!

Harry Potter and the Sorcerers Stone by JK
Rowling
  • J K Rowling wrote Harry Potter and the
    Sorcerers Stone. It is the first book out of a
    six-book series. This book is fantasy. It is all
    about wizards. It is also about friends and
    romance. Ron, Hermione, and Harry Potter become
    best friends in time. Ron and Harry became
    friends from the start, but Hermione became
    friends with Harry. Ron secretly likes Hermione
    Harry knows it but Hermione doesn't.
  • Harry meets lots of wizards. Some of the wizards
    he met were famous like Albus Dumbledore. He
    learns about Voldermort and chocolate frogs. He
    meets other wizards and girl wizards. He learns
    about muggle borns and full blood wizards.
  • This book is great for both girls and boys. It
    is all about Hogwarts, the school of magic. Harry
    has a lot going for him and every one knows he
    will succeed, but others hope he fails.

The Haunted Mediatorby Meg Cabot
  • A book that I enjoyed reading was Haunted by
    Meg Cabot. The genre of this novel is realistic
    fiction with a small twist of supernatural bliss
    thrown in with it. This book is about a girl,
    Susannah, who lives in Carmel by the Sea. She
    deals with normal problems everyday. Buying the
    latest make-up, running for class president and
    of course many others, but she also deals with
    not-so-normal problems like being in love with a
    ghost named Jesse.
  • Susannah Simon is a mediator. A mediator is a
    person able to see, speak and interact with
    ghosts. Her job, as far as she knows is to direct
    the ghosts with unfinished business to the places
    where they belong. The ghost she is in love with
    is her age, which means he died young.
  • This book is mostly for girls who like
    supernatural bliss with some reality. She is
    dealing with ghosts and stepbrothers, homework,
    friends, and of course the mortal Paul Slater who
    is crushing on her and Jesse her ghost boyfriend.
    Susannah is a good example of girls in general.
    Besides the ghost part, she is average
    sixteen-year-old girl who cares about clothes and
    style and worries about love, and keeping in with
    her best friends. This is a book I recommend
    because the plot never ends and the book is never
    boring.

10
Shadow of the Hegemonby Orson Scott Card
  • Shadow of The Hegemon was written by Orson
    Scott Card and is the second book in the series
    of spin-offs from the book Enders Game. The
    genre of Shadow of The Hegemon is science
    fiction, since it takes place in the distant
    future, and deals with the themes including space
    travel and aliens. This particular book follows
    the story of Bean. Bean is a battle school
    graduate (for those of you who dont know,
    Battle school is a training center for extremely
    talented youth, created to find commanders to
    destroy the bug species that rave earth. They
    need to joint with the world government.
  • I thought this book was action-packed, and
    suspenseful throughout. I would recommend this
    book to anyone interested in or has read the
    other to books. It also has many political
    aspects, and would appeal to someone interested
    in what politics could be like in the future.

11
The Amber Spyglass
  • The Amber Spyglass is a very interesting
    book that follows in the footsteps of the last
    two books written by Phillip Pullman, The Golden
    Compass and The Subtle Knife. They both have been
    very successful books that I really enjoyed
    reading. This book, The Amber Spyglass is a very
    complicated book and if you are not an advanced
    reader it may be hard to follow.
  • In the kingdom of Heaven, there is a brutal
    battle. In its shocking outcome, it will uncover
    the secret of dust. This story reveals more
    secrets and has many unexpected events. This book
    wraps up the series nicely.
  • If there were any unanswered questions at the
    beginning of the book, they will be answered by
    the end of the book. I highly recommend the
    complete trilogy. You should start out with the
    first book, The Golden Compass, though.
