I really liked this book and would give this book 5 stars because it is set in World War 2 and has a lot of setting description. It is about a girl who has a family secret and her Fathers disappears. She is sent to her Grandmothers orphan home in Springdale, Maine.                                           ]]> 2018-09-20 17:11:45 UTC https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/284042968 25si02541 https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/284043118 I started this book on September 20th and finished it on September 22. I would give this book 3 stars because it gets a little slow. It is about four kids who survived a bus crash and got special powers.]]> 2018-09-20 17:12:02 UTC https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/284043118 25si02541 https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/286205349 This book is about two kids who lived in Guatemala. The main character Jaime's cousin Miguel gets killed by a gang in Guatemala. They want to recruit Jaime and his other cousin Angela. The family decides it is the safest to have them escape to the United States.

This was a very exiting and mysterious book and it was very good except for the ending. I would give it 4 and a half stars. It has magic, character change and lots of emotion and action.]]> 2018-09-28 16:28:32 UTC https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/287038120 25si02541 https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/297581185 I started this book on October 24 and finished it on October 27. This is a great book about a boy whose family first likes the Nazis and then realizes they are wrong. He later makes pamphlets that show that the Nazis are horrible but gets caught. I would give this book 5 starts because it is written in a very interesting way. The author writes about when he is in prison and of his memories when he was young so you read about him in two different times in his life. This book shows all the different ways that the Nazis hurt people. I would also give this 5 stars because it has lots of character change and strong emotion.]]> 2018-10-26 21:04:23 UTC https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/297581185 25si02541 https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/297789935 I started this book on October 29 and finished it on November 1. This is a really interesting book about a made up continent where the countries are at war. There country is recruiting kids to join the adolescent army by taking a test but know one knows what they will do in that army. Mathilde and her best friend Megs take the test. She knows if either of them pass they will be separated from each other and from the families. For how long, no one knows. I give this book 5 stars. This book shows the power of friends, family and strangers as well as how children have the same and more amount of bravery, creativity and brains as adults.]]> 2018-10-28 18:59:42 UTC https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/297789935 25si02541 https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/302803213 I started this book on November 8 and ended it on November 9. This book is a squeal to Beautiful Blue World. It is about how her group of very intelligent kids has to move to another country as Tyssia prepares to take over Sofarende where Mathilde lives. Mathilde does something dangerous and important and then gets separated from her group. I give this book 5 stars as it has suspense, character change, friendships and hard choices. ]]> 2018-11-09 23:30:25 UTC https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/302803213 25si02541 https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/303398362 I started this book on October 22 and ended it on October 22. I think this book is really nice. The author writes in poetic form that shows in first person how Syvia the main character lives through the ghetto in Lodz, Poland and becomes one of the 800 out of 270,00 survivors. Only 12 of those were children. She was one of them. This book is filled with a lot of descriptive emotion so that when Syvia struggles the reader feels sad and when Syvia is saved or safe you take a deep breath and are happy that Syvia is not in danger. That is why I give this book 5 starts. ]]> 2018-11-12 18:06:59 UTC https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/303398362 25si02541 https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/303910430 I started this book on November 13 and ended it on November 18.

I would give this book four stars. I would give this book four stars because it is a mystery about Ben's past and it has two different story lines. One in words about Ben and one in pictures about Rose I also like how the story lines meet but at some parts the story gets to confusing.]]> 2018-11-30 18:14:57 UTC https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/309907731 25si02541 https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/313583257 I started this book on December 5 and ended it on December 10. I would give this book 4 stars because it has a lot of suspense and many different problems that keep pilling on top of each other. But you almost know what is going to happen next because the book is very predictable. ]]> 2018-12-11 19:26:30 UTC https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/313583257 25si02541 https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/313585285 I started this book on December 11 and ended it on December 14. I would give this book 5 stars because it is about an interesting topic. Mexican illegal migrants. It is told through two points of view. One through the third person of the boy who's parents hire the Mexican workers to help on their farm and the second point of view is of the illegal Mexican girl. Her story is told through letters she writes. The book is very suspenseful because once you start you don't want to stop reading.]]> 2018-12-11 19:29:55 UTC https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/313585285 25si02541 https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/315160494 I started this book on December 15 and finished it on December 15. I would give this book 5 stars because it is has a really good story line and good writing. It shows real life problems today in other parts of the world and has lots of different characters that change over the story. The author also describes Amal's village and her feelings in great detail. This is probably my favorite book I read this year.]]> 2018-12-17 14:08:33 UTC https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/315160494 25si02541 https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/316272531 I started this book on December 17 and finished it on December 19. I would give this book 2 stars because it is a okay story with lots of unexpected plot twists but it is unrealistic at times. ]]> 2018-12-20 19:24:51 UTC https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/316272531 25si02541 https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/316934778 I started this book on December 20 and finished it on December 21. I would give this book 4 1/2 stars because it is written in a very nice way in poems. It shows a normal girl in Sudan face the problems of being a girl and the author writes about her feeling very well. It is confusing and sometimes hard to tell what happend because it is in poem form. ]]> 2018-12-31 17:35:29 UTC https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/316934778 25si02541 https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/316935221 I started this book on December 24 and finished it on December 30. I would give this book 5 stars because I liked how the author made the theme important in the story and that kept on repeating it. He also described the setting of Arturo's neighborhood well because his town was a big part of the story. I enjoyed reading about Arturo's large family and their traditions. ]]> 2018-12-31 17:42:14 UTC https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/316935221 25si02541 https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/317087843 I started this book on December 25 and ended it on January 2.

I would give this book 2 stars. I would give it two stars because even though the social issue is very interesting the way that the author portrays it is not good. The characters are also not described very well. Though some parts of the book may be suspenseful over all the book is boring. ]]> 2019-01-09 18:05:49 UTC https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/318923834 25si02541 https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/318924569 I started this book on January 9 and finished it on January 16. I give this book 5 stars. It may seem like it only has Indian mythology but it actually has lots of action and adventure, character change, plot twists and mystery. It is an adventure book but there is lots of characters feelings and emotions. I also really enjoyed how the author brought all of this together with a lot of Indian mythology.]]> 2019-01-09 18:07:09 UTC https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/318924569 25si02541 https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/322117719 I started this book on January 17 and finished it on January 19.

I would give this book 5 stars because I like how that author describes the setting. I also like how the author adds a mystery with Z, the Trepid's and the twins parents. The book is interesting because you see lots of peoples perspective.

It gets complicated when there are lots of characters with multiple/fake names so I think the author should explain more.]]> 2019-02-06 19:41:35 UTC https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/328462872 25si02541 https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/332892591  I started this book on February 15 and finished it on February 16. I would give this book 5 stars because I really like the story. It is interesting and suspenseful. It makes you want to keep reading and finish the whole book and start the next book. I also like how the author describes the different made up cities and all the other things she thought of. There are a lot of characters that are described well and all of them have a story that connects to the main problem which is very mysterious and interesting. ]]> 2019-02-19 19:32:11 UTC https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/332892591 25si02541 https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/332895142 I started this book on February 17 and finished it on February 21.

I would give this book 4.5 stars because of the topic. The topic is immigration and the author does not only write about this topic she also writes about many other problems in the time period which happen to the characters.  I also like the differetn problems that arise and how the main character deals with them.

I would rate this book 5/5 stars. The reason for my rating is that the author keeps you entertained by making surprising events. The author also makes you feel bad for the characters when something happens to them or feel good when they achieve something. ]]> 2019-04-30 19:28:54 UTC https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/355602521 25si02541 https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/359203736 I started this book on May 8 and ended it on May 10.

I would rate this book 3.5/5 stars because the whole book it about the wedding and the author does not write about the wedding, she skips over it, so that is disappointing.

I would give this book 4 stars. This rating is because it is a good story but does not build excitement for anything big that happens in the story. Any main events are very subtle and not exciting. ]]> 2019-05-30 18:23:35 UTC https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/364722396 25si02541 https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/366743172 I started this on June 8th and finished it on June 11th. I would rate this book 4/5 stars because it is interesting but confusing at the same time. ]]> 2019-06-10 16:33:48 UTC https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/366743172 25si02541 https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/367226139 2019-06-12 16:52:12 UTC https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/367226139 25si02541 https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/367226188 2019-06-12 16:52:33 UTC https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/367226188 25si02541 https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/367226310 2019-06-12 16:53:10 UTC https://padlet.com/25si02541/tsqiqzo3decy/wish/367226310
