Alonso Sandoval-Curse of the moon children

The book was intriguing at first, but it quickly lost its charm because of chases and its weird chapter endings, i wish they had more time to explore some ideas like how the collector feels, the animals, the confusion for the main characters and others, so that the chapters could more than just a chase scene to keep you interested.
Overall i would say it suffers because it is a fiction express book that could have been done so much better with much time and a free range of ideas from the author.

Alien Isle is a book that may look like a simple sci-fi story but I believe it managed to briefly touch upon more important themes. This book references immigration, racism and refugees by suggesting very specific things about the main character. However, they aren't the main focus and you may just want to pay extra attention to details to catch the hints. Overall, the book is very entertaining and unique, it manages to develop characters well for the its short extension, and to maintain the reader's attention.

I truly enjoyed reading this book, I found it really unexpected and entertaining because of the amazing plot twists and unique characters. Some themes this book deals with are social injustices, how people need to leave their homes because of war and deal with the separation of their families. I believe that a person that enjoys reading fiction but at the same time with a bit of reality would truly enjoy reading this book.

Between the lines is an action-packed story that follows the war-time adventures of Karl and Louis. It's full of unexpected plot twists and captivating scenery. On the other hand, some details of the climax aren't very realistic, which shadows the powerfull message of the story. Otherwise, the topics developed in the cousins' adventures are family, friendship, loyalty and respect. Finally, I would recommend this story to anyone interested in a book similar to Hidden.

I read the book Alien Isle, and overall it was disappointing. While the themes of the book relate to inclusion and family, the author tried to include mystery and fiction, which in my opinion drifted the focus away from the initial plot. Furthermore, I believe the plot itself was very predictable and the mystery part was useless. On the other hand, there was not a good character construction, since you cannot tell much about the characters' personalities. I would recommend you this book if you like more sci-fi books, without a thought-provoking analysis.

Curse of the Moon Children- Alexia

aburmester — 2021-09-10 16:50:21 UTC

Curse of the Moon Children was addictive and creepy at the same time, the plot was amazing and the mystery was very entertaining and captivating, I can assure you will not get bored with it. The book deals with friendship, determination, courage and perseverance. If you like to be part of crossroads, suspense and horror then this book is for you. However, keep in mind that it is a little bit sinister and twisted.

I quite like the story in general, especially because of the intense development of the characters throughout the plot, and the problem of the story. On the other hand, I also liked the inspiring message that the story gives as it teaches us about empathy.

SLEEPERS- Fabiana.S

fsantacruz1 — 2021-09-10 16:53:35 UTC

In general the book I read (Sleepers) seemed super interesting to me, especially for the plot, since in this book an experiment is created to clone people and I really think that with how advanced technology is nowadays, it could be possible to clone a person. I'm not going to lie, I'm a little scared that it will happen because in the book things don't end up going as planned.

The first to chapters weren't interesting enough to engage you with the lecture. However, the authors creativity is well shown during the next three chapters. Because of story is partly guided by the readers, it became really unpredictable and at the same time intriguing.
Another great point that the author take in conscience is the variability of the characters, which aren't common or classical at all, specially the protagonist who's hereditary disease is part of the story main problem in many times.
I really recommend to read this book, considering the facts previously mentioned.

It was a very intriguing book, there are creepy and twisted moments in every chapter; you never know when the characters are safe, you never know when to trust someone. It dealt with futuristics topics, the bad use of science and technology, strong friendships and bravery, most of all. I can assure you that this book can be read by anyone who likes suspense, books which are unpredictable and thought provoking ends.

At first it was one of those book who just expresss the basic idea of her protagonist at her teather school with some vague arguments for the story like she being the main role or all the lights focuses of her. Basically what every performer dream of.
However, as I continue things for the protagonist were only getting worst, all the things she wanted were just so far to reach even if she dreamed for them which makes the story rich and easier to empashize with.

It was interesting that the author go further and talked about her friends realities and perspestives at the same time as the protagonist. The fact that it uses a coloquial language make the lecture more enjoyable. Challenges were not easy and most of the time they were portray in a way that feels human :)

The book was a bit predictable after some chapters, so all the intriguing atmosphere created by a kidnapped at the beginning of the story become bored. Furthermore the author try to create interesting main characters, however most of them didn't catch my attention and I would said that story would have the same end if they weren't there. However, I would say that if you like mysterious books like this, at the end maybe you will enjoy it.

Alien aisle - Mariafe

Imagine having to flee from your own nation without your parents or family, only your brother to get to a strange town where you don't know anyone or anything, and you have someone totally strange to you as your caregiver. This happened to Parvaneh and Nasim in the Alien Aisle book which I really recommend reading. This little tale is quite unpredictable and creepy, as it deals with fantastic and a bit unrealistic themes. However, it also addresses issues such as bullying, racism, loss of loved ones, overcoming fears, among many others. My opinion about the book is really controversial since I feel that it was an acceptable and entertaining book just not for me, it was not really my style. If I had to recommend it to someone in particular, it would be someone who likes fantasy, fiction, and unexpected endings. I hope you read it!

I think the book was a little relatable since now we've all been through something similar. Also everything that happened seemed kind of predictable because everything was told in a way you could undestarnd the main characther because you could just feel what he was going through. Also in the book you can see what most people can feel once in their life which is someone judging you simply for who you are, which made everything even more realistic. Finally, I would recommend this story to anyone who enjoys some mystery as well as reading about real life issues.

Sleepers is a well-twisted drama about three friends that were kidnapped for a creepy project. It has some funny, sad, and intriguing moments where these friends developed their friendship and start working in a team to survive.
I like this book since it was not predictable at all. The five chapters have unexpected events, so this makes you have a powerful sense of continue reading the next chapter.
Finally, I will highly recommend this book to students that like science-fiction and unpredictable adventures.

Reading this book was such a delight. I would normally stick to romantic or nonfictional books, but the way of how the author makes the book wholly.-absorbing made me forget about my likes and keep reading. The theme is presented in the book is skillfully handled and the lessons to take from it are really powerful. The main character connects with several unique personalities whose experiences and views deeply affect her own. Also, the unexpected ending is a fitting denouement to an epic and memorable path to solving the mystery. It was touching, outstanding and brilliant.

The book had a catching begging but, as it continued, the captivating details that kept me engaged to the story disappeared. I think the main idea that the author should have been focus was the racism and refugees but, while trying to include action scenes, it kind of drifted to another direction. Even though, I think most of the chapters were interesting, but the end was kind of expected.

When I first read the book I didn’t like it, It was like a copy of Glee and I didn’t find it original and authentic. Then, my opinion didn’t actually change, everything was happening too fast and every moment was too predictable. I hardly believe someone would enjoy it. Moreover, the final was respectable, the plot twist was necessary and satisfied the reader to accept the ending.
To finalize, I will give it a 7 out of 10. Taking in consideration the time and other circumstances the author had to face.

Sleepers-Diego

I thought the book would be predictable at the beginning because nothing flashy would happen on a train with 3 friends. Now I can say that none of the audience will expect that a “weirds individual” kidnaps the train and subdues the passengers to a clone machine. I consider “sleepers” is about friendship by the way the friends escaped from the enemies which is an intense battle with the main villain. It had a unique finish because it seemed to be so unrealistic with the things that happened while the character escape. All in all, I would recommend this book to anyone who is guided to read a book by its captaincy

BOOK: Curse of the Moon Children

2021-09-10 17:13:10 UTC

This book was definitely very entertaining and interesting in a way that you can truly engage yourself with every scenario thanks to the detailed and very deep descriptions the author gives them. Apart from this, I really liked the idea of having different perspectives from each character; in some parts of the story, you can even know the reasons and thoughts of the antagonist, which I consider important. On the other hand, there were certainly some things like the development of the story at the final parts, that I didn't enjoy as much since it was kind of confusing and twisted.

First of all, i really enjoyed that the lenguage was so easy to understand, however, it was also a downside because it was hard to find words for the vocabulary journal. About the book in general, things happened quite fast, and even events could just last 1 or 2 pages, which obviously meant that details weren't as much as i would wanted it too. The characters were well developed, i really liked the fact that the author decided to pay attention to the others and not only the main one. To sum up, I think the idea of the book had a quite a good potential, but it wasn't exploded to its 100%. A solid 7.5/10

Curse of the Moon Children- Aranzazu

2021-09-10 17:35:30 UTC

The book was pretty much interesting since the beginning. First, the book cover called my attention to choose the book, because I thought it was related to a scary story and it was.
The story is based on a man who lived in the forest who recollects kids to turn them into dolls with a curse, it was when the man sprinkles a powder on the child with the moonlight, finally, the victim is turned into a doll. He recollected kids with a trap, that was to attract them with different kind of desserts so they could enter to his cottage and make his plans works.
During the chapters, we could realize that each character has different interests, Brandon wanted to find his mother who faced the course. Here is when all the characters decide the best choice with discussions where everyone could give opinions.
The language is easy to understand and I really enjoyed spending my time reading the book. All the characters faced different problems but always leaning on each other. I definitely recommend you this book if you like creepy stories :)))

Sleepers-Noelia Benavente

nbenavente — 2021-09-10 18:17:31 UTC

I read the book Sleepers by Mark Wright, and overall it was pretty disappointing. First of all, the author tried to write this science fiction story complementing it with an important topic like friendship. However, he couldn’t do it properly since the circumstances that the main characters were in ended up being totally repetitive. Furthermore, the topic of cloned people is not something innovative nor the idea of a powerful organization who wants to take control and look for world’s domination. Therefore, the whole intriguing atmosphere created at the beginning since the protagonists were kidnapped ended up being boring. Moreover, the author had all the tools to create a good story using the futuristic and technological aspects, but in the end it was just something traditional.
