The Complete Chronicles of Narnia (The Chronicles of Narnia)
By C.S. LEWIS
This book is a great book. I think you should read it. This book is about a lion who is the king of Narnia and his name is Aslan. He meets 4 children. The children's names are Peter, Susan, Edmond, and Lucy Pevenski. They together solve the problem of the evil ice queen and after they scare her away, Peter, Susan, Edmond, and Lucy become kings and queens of Narnia for many years. They grow old in the land of Narnia but in the real world only a minute has passed. This is the story of the Land of Narnia. (Edmond might not be spelled right.)
Bridge to Terabithia
By Katherine Paterson
"A amazing book, heartwarming, sad and wonderful in so many ways." Is my words to discribe this beautifully written book. Tradgedy. That is the main theme here, however it's mostly in the end. Jesse Aarons made a new friend, Leslie Burke. They raced together, talked, fought against a common bully, and built the secret, and magical world, Terabithia together. But now, after disturbing news, it's all for nothing. When Ms. Edmunds took Jesse out, he found out that Leslie died. He couldn't believe it at first, but she had hit her head on a rope, and then drowned. Leslie. Gone. Forever. Jesse is so upset, he still can't believe it. But near the end, with help from everyone, he overcomes his grief and sadness. And even though she's gone, she will still be in his heart, giving him advice. She might not be there physicly, but she's there mentally. A wonderful book, and it is very sad, however very well written, Katherine Patterson. I loved this book, 5/5.
The Outsiders (M Books)
By S.E. Hinton
"Stay gold..." I read this when I was younger, but I never really understood it... due to the fact I read this book when I was in third grade, and I was too young to realize what it actually meant... I read this book earlier again during the summer... and wow... this book is really heartwarming... the book's setting is around the late 1960's and it starts off with the Socs short for Socials and the Greasers who are usually proud of their long mane while they grease it back... Meet Ponyboy Curtis, the protagonist of the story, yes... his name is actually Ponyboy and yes, you can check his birth certificate... and his two brothers' names are Darry who's twenty years old who support the gang and was a quarterback in his high school and his second oldest brother Sodapop, who is loved by the girls, is in a relationship with Sandy, and is a high school drop out, but works in an auto shop... (Don't you love how Ponyboy and Sodapop are very original names??? :D) Ponyboy's parents passed away in an auto accident, and they lived together with the gang ever since... Two-Bit is the oldest who is sarcastic, funny, but wise... then there's Steve who Ponyboys thinks that Steve does not like him and is Sodapop's best friend, also there's Dally who is the wildest, reckless of them all and has a soft spot for Johnny, and Johnny (the pet's gang)... he came from a rough background, getting bit by his father while his mother did not care... and Ponyboy and his brothers all make up this gang... or group... They are like brothers and they got each others back yo... I think some of their slang... kind of make me talk in slang...lol...but WARNING: There is slang in the book...it's not really that bad... to be honest... you can either tell what they are trying to say... because it's obvious or CONTEXT CLUES....Now back to the story there is another set of group called the Socs and they wear madras (kind of like plaid clothing) and ride Mustangs... they're more... I guess upper class than the Greasers... but the reason why they have this huge feud, because the Greasers thing the Socs are "living the life" while the Socs think the Greasers are having the dream life... which causes their resent towards each other... So one day Ponyboy, Johnny, and Dally end up going to a drive-in movie theater... and guess who's next to them???? I hoped you guess right... but two girls... who were Socs were next to them... Of course Dally being Dally... he was a jerk to them... and end up leaving the theater earlier... Cherry(because of her hair color...it's red) and Marcia (the Socs) end up talking to Ponyboy and Johnny.... Later on Two-Bit comes along and charms the girls.... but Ponyboy and Cherry had this huge discussion...they realize that the Greasers have emotions while Socs just fake their emotions... to the point they don't feel anything... but even though they "live in different worlds" they still watch the same sunset... which is the beginning of their friendship... One day... Bob (Cherry's boyfriend) and his friends jump on Ponyboy and Johnny (Johnny has this huge fear from the Socs because they once jumped on him... to the point Johnny could've been dead), where they try to drown Ponyboy, and the quiet, shy Johnny strikes back and stabs Bob, which causes the other Socs to run away and Ponyboy saved...but Johnny's action causes Ponyboy and Johnny to run away with the help of Dally, while the police is looking out for the murderer... So now what's going on(if you read it, you'll know the ending)???? Through this adventure you'll laugh, cry, smile, and feel different emotions.... because all of these events that happened are something we can all relate to.... This is what I really enjoyed from the author; you could feel the pure and raw emotions from this short story.... and that's what makes the whole story to be a memorable story we cannot forget. It's surprising even though this story was writhed around the 1960's, this author lived it, and we still have problems like this in this world... no lie... So I hope you read this sentimental, suspenseful adventure.... READ!!!!!
Skyhunter
By Marie Lu
This is definitely one of my new favorite books. I love all of the main characters, they all have depth and flaws but are still lovable. the plot was never once boring I enjoyed finding out the main characters backstory, and the main story held suspense. This book centers around war in a fantasy world with almost very slight dystopian aspects. I would recommend for fantasy lovers ages 13+.
I Survived The Sinking of the Titanic, 1912 (I Survived Graphic Novel)
By Lauren Tarshis
This book is about a boy named George and his little sister. They are on the titanic with their aunt and they love it there. The service and the food and everything. George keeps getting into trouble but tries to remember that his father has threatened to send him to military school if he doesn't behave. Later the tragedy that we all know as the " Sinking of The Titanic" happens. And I don't want to spoil the ending but I definitely recommend for kids 8-11. It is a very good book, and Lauren Tarshish is an amazing author for kids so any "I Survived" book is great to read especially the graphic novel ones. Bye!
Sisters
By Raina Telgemeier
I love this book out of all I think that this book is my 2nd favorite book. I love that there are flashbacks, I think it's really cool that it tells you the past that connects to the future. I also love that it shows that sisters never get along all the time. It also shows that even if sisters usually disagree they can always come to an understanding sooner or later. I think that this a great book and I love all her books. I love the art style. In conclusion I give this book a 5 stars.

Dork Diaries 1: Tales from a Not-So-Fabulous Life
By Rachel Renée Russell
Personally, i think this book is pretty good. im in the 5th grade, and ive been reading since 2nd grade. (thanks to my older sister) alot of people dont like how the protagonist, Nicki talks alot about boys and crushes and romantic teenager problems. But personally i think its just sort of realistic, Nicki is not in the 4th grade, shes a teen. This book isnt technically about a fun adventure with no worrys or stress, its realistic "slice of life" book. it speaks about growing pains and i think its interesting since i like books with drama and realistic ideals, usually. even in manga i like it when for example, attack on titan isnt all just about the titans but also shows the characters personalities and personal goals and stuff like that, friendships being broken and stuff that hurts the reader because of how realistic it is, but also has fiction like titans. Back to dork diaries, this is one of the only non-manga books i like, i will say Nicki can get a bit whiny and makes it a bit less enjoyable but overall i really like the idea and plot of this book, no its not a Diary of the Wimpy Kid "rip-off", its different in its own way because its more grown-up and usually girls struggle alot more with growing up so its natural Dork Diaries feels grown. I love this book! It can be very stereotypical tho, just because Nicki is a new "nerdy girl" who gets picked on, and on top of that her enemy is Mackenzie Hollister, the most popular girl in school. I like how much the book has so many twist and turns.
Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Long Haul
By Jeff Kinney
Diary of a Wimpy Kid (The Long Haul) is about an ordinary teenager named Greg who’s just trying to enjoy summer break, which had just started. Unexpectedly, his mom planned a surprise road trip. Most of their family members were unsatisfied with what she came up with and showed a reluctant attitude, yet they still went on that trip. Throughout the trip, events that happened were unexpected, none of them actually imagined anything like it would happen on their road trip. I can somewhat understand Greg’s feelings towards the trip because I had experiences of unexpected trips and unwilling to go to the trip as well. Also, his personality is just like any other teenagers, who wants to spend summer break on activities that interests them the most. I enjoyed the parts where their family had to deal with the pig that Manny got, it was exceedingly entertaining and I actually laughed out for a few parts of it. Overall, this is an interesting novel and I’ll recommend this to readers who likes to read about teenager’s life.
