I have enjoyed his book because of the deep characters,intriguing plotline and humor. Basically Magnus has to stop Surt a fire demon from freeing Fenris wolf. If Fenris wolf is freed he is fated to start Raganarok. If Raganarok is started it will spell out doom for the nine worlds. Overall I highly recommend this book it is a very enjoyable book.

I enjoyed this book because of the action. Veronica Roth, the author made me connect and understand the characters so well that when my favorite character died almost cried. This book is about Tris Prior finding out that her city is actually part of a whole world. Her city is actually in Chicago. My favorite part was when Tris volunteered to die instead of her brother. I think that she was really brave. 
This is a great book but you have to read the first 2 books in the series to understand it.

This is one of my favorite books ever because it has an intriuging plot and mysterious characters. My favorite part was when Ruben explored the Smoke's mansion near the climax because in that part, he discovered so many secrets about the Smoke/Counselor.  
I also like the part when Rueben was exploring the caves/tunnels by P. William Light. I loved this part because I couldn't put the book down. Overall, I highly recommend this book for someone who likes mysteries!

I was on the edge of my seat while reading this part, and kept thinking what I would do if I was up on that ledge. I myself, am terrified of heights! I think Trenton Lee Stewart did an amazing job, (as always)!

 I would rate this book, 10/10! I would definitely read it again. ]]> 2016-12-12 00:04:06 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_dayto/k3bingbj1pk1/wish/143026858 Halts peril-Eliot https://padlet.com/elizabeth_dayto/k3bingbj1pk1/wish/143970622 Halts peril is about halt, will, and Horace going on an adventure to stop a group called the outsiders.

It was really engaging the whole entire book. It was really interesting that some gods like Bast, Anubis, and Osiris were helping Sadie and carter because gods are supposed to remain neutral. The whole goal of this book was too destroy the red pryamid that set was building. One bad thing though is that when their uncle Amos came back it was really suspicious, and I figured that he was being controlled by set and I was right.

The way the author used there words to enjoy the book was incredible. This book gave me a insight on morals, doing the right thing and thinking for yourself. I rate this book a 8/10 mostly because it was amazing but I didn't quite understand some points which is something I have to work on.]]> 2016-12-19 23:14:17 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_dayto/k3bingbj1pk1/wish/144398793 Land Of Stories #5 - Shreya https://padlet.com/elizabeth_dayto/k3bingbj1pk1/wish/144401018 I just finished reading the latest and fifth book of the Land of Stories series. It is written by Chris Colfer. I really enjoyed this book because it had a mix of fantasy, adventure, love, and humor. 
I think that the author made it entertaining by writing dialogues really to go with the character saying them. It makes you feel more sucked into the book! (if you have read land of stories you would probably get my pun.) 
I love the author's style of writing. He makes it engaging and uses description a lot! I believe that the writer shows way more than he tells. I would recommend this series, because in my opinion it is extremely interesting and creative. The main characters Alex and Conner are around our age and that makes how they think, what they say, why they choose certain decisions, etc. more relatable! Also, the book is all about fairytales and I feel that makes it even more exciting because most of us when we were little grew up around fairytales  and the way Chris Colfer uses his creativity to fit everything in is incredible. I definitely recommend people of all ages to read this book.

It is part of the Lunar Chronicles series. It's about a cyborg mechanic who lives with her stepmother and her two stepsisters, Pearl and Peony. And then Prince Kai comes into play. Kai's father is suffering from letumosis. There have been outbreaks all throughout the city. But when Cinder and Kai's paths cross things get interesting. This book is an amazing mix of fairy tale and sci-fi. I would rate this book a 9/10. It's a little confusing in the beginning but once you get used to it the book is quite enjoyable. ]]> 2016-12-20 02:32:21 UTC https://padlet.com/elizabeth_dayto/k3bingbj1pk1/wish/144406480 The Bamboo Sword- Adalyn https://padlet.com/elizabeth_dayto/k3bingbj1pk1/wish/144526247 Last night I finished reading the Bamboo Sword also by Margi Prues. I loved the way this book took me back in time and was just enough detailed to let me see what it was like, but still be able to imagine my version of it. Over all this book was ver well written and I highly recommend this book to you.

It follows Kino, a man who lives with his wife and one son, and right off the bat, the young son is stung by a scorpion. Panicking, the wife takes the son to the doctor, but, because they are poor, refuses to help them. Desperate, kino goes looking for pearls so he can get the son to the doctor. He end up finding a massive pearl. They bring it back home, but the pearl seems to be more of a blessing than a curse...
I would recommend this book to anyone who is looking for a short, sad story to read.
