Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Book 1

Diary of a Wimpy Kid, Book 1

By Jeff Kinney

I have read the series multiple times, and my mom was always mad about it. I don';t know why, but Jeff Kinney had m hooked on from the first page. That is not something that happens a lot with me. I have to read a few pages and then I decide whether I want to read the book or not. So this is probably one of the many books that would be my go-to if I didn't have any other books to read. If you don't know what this book is about, it is about a kid that is in middle school. He has weird people in his h=neighborhood and school. He wants to to do grown-up stuff and all the things his parents do. But when he tries, he finds out how hard it is. It shows his emotions about school, at his home, and a bunch of other stuff many kids have to deal with. I don't know how, but Jeff Kinney mixed comedy with actual life o well, you would actually think he was writing this books when he was a child. Overall, I give this book 5/5 stars. Well done, Jeff!

Griffin Speaker

Griffin Speaker

By Jan M. Flynn

Rain is an orphan grub. Sitting at the very bottom of the hierarchy, she works at her Aunt Willow’s farm helping with the animals. When she turns 13, she will be sent to spend the rest of her life working in the Tubes to collect Root for those higher up on the hierarchy. Problem being, she has Tube Terror. The dark narrow spaces of the Tubes cause her to panic, though she must hide her fear to avoid being dosed with Med, which turns grubbers into mindless, automated workers. During all this, she hears strange, piercing cries coming from her Aunt’s barn, which she has been ordered, under no circumstances, should she ever enter. You know what they say, “Curiosity kills the cat.” Rain’s curiosity gets the best of her, and upon entering, she finds… a wild griffin? That can’t be right, wild griffins haven’t existed for years. Turns out the wild griffin is being trained to help get Lady Orla, a girl at the very top of the social rung, into the Academy, where students learn to be Griffin Riders who enforce the law. Lady Orla plans to enter the Academy under the “Law Of The Chosen”, which dictates that if a griffin naturally bonds with you, you must be let into the Academy, no matter your rank. However, the griffin has now bonded with Rain, and won’t attach to Lady Orla. This, naturally, causes problems. The Griffin Land authorities hunted and disposed of all wild griffins long ago, and if this griffin won’t bond with Lady Orla, his life is at stake. A whirlwind of decisions leads to Rain deciding to take Griff (as he’s been so named) to get herself into the Academy. However, being a grub, the government isn’t so thrilled with the idea of the Griffin Land Order hierarchy being thrown into chaos. It’s a battle to survive and fight her way though challenges to prove that she, too, should have a choice in how her life should be lived. Overall, one of my favorite books I’ve read in a long time. Once started, it’s very hard to put down. Looking forward to future books in the series. 10/10, recommend for ages 10-15.

Peril at End House (Agatha Christie Collection)

Peril at End House (Agatha Christie Collection)

By Agatha Christie

Nick Buckley, a young lady who somehow survived few "accidents" that could potentially take her life as the famous detective, Hercule Poirot to suspect that the certain murderer has the target. But who? Likely to be Nick. One day while vacationing at the Cornish coast, he (Poirot) noticed a bullet hole in the young lady's hat (which is Nick's) and took up the case to investigate in order to try and stop the murderer. While doing it, Poirot also dived in the dark history relating to the young mistress of End House. And while learning her dark history, he then added up all the events that nearly took Nick's life and shocking had happened. This is lowkey really good and I would recommend this book for any mystery/murder lovers! - Happy Reading!

Mary Poppins in the Park

Mary Poppins in the Park

By Pamela L. Travers

Fourth time that we would go on another adventure with the Banks children and their nanny, Mary Poppins as we would go through another day with them. We would see Bert again, yay! We would also see other characters from the previous books. But there's something about this book that I feel like I should tell/warn you guys; this book is little bit overly dramatic than 3 previous books that I've read of Mary Poppins but this one was ok, just not my favorite, and I partly enjoyed this book but that alot. But its still good, though. - Happy Reading!

Mary Poppins Comes Back

Mary Poppins Comes Back

By P L Travers

Another day, another adventure now begins again as Mary Poppins returns to care the Banks children. Michael, who is still a mischievous boy but growing up. Jane, a quiet but also little bit complaint girl, who's also growing up, maturing. The twins, who are rarely get mentioned, also starting to get little bit older but still in their infancy. Bert, a chimney cleaner now didn't get mentioned as lot as the first book but it's noticeable that Mary kind of have the thing for Bert but don't know for sure yet. Mary, the nanny, who's still little bit cranky and strict but the kids still respect her, even if they are afraid of her which means good thing....mostly! But overalls, I really enjoyed this book so far too! - Happy Reading!

Mary Poppins Opens the Door

Mary Poppins Opens the Door

By P. L. Travers

Another adventure, but same life as Mary Poppins continue caring for the Banks children. Her strict rules for the children remain unhinged and unchanged but changed subtly so slightly that you would never notice with Michael and Jane both now growing up, getting little bit more older but still have their own mischievous selfs which you would laugh at sometime. We also met few more new characters which adds up to the whole story to Mary Poppins' life while caring the children. Another book that I also enjoyed but could be better with Mary being little bit nicer. Just saying! - Happy Reading!
