The Legend of Luke
Hey! I read another one of the mousey stories! Now, this story is about a mouse warrior named Martin and his father named Luke. Martin travels back to his birthplace to find out the full story of how his father had led his tribe and what had truly happened to him. When Martin was born a slave ship had came to Luke's tribe and killed many. So The Legend of Luke is his epic story of vengence toward the evil slave master and how Luke, his 3 survivng shipmates, and a mad black squirrellmaid led the captive slaves on a ship to victory. This story is pretty gory so i would rate it a PG-13.
The Vigrinity Club
Hi! This is a new book, that will soon be available for you to read. Well, I know that a lot of you will be thinking that this is strange and gross because of its title but, i am going to fix that!!! This book is about how 4 girls are competing for a scholar ship. But, one of the requirements is that they have to be PURE, and well, they need to show how they are pure. It is a good book with some good humor, a little bit of sad, plenty of excitements, and a good dose of romance, if you are looking for something fun and enjoyable, read THE VIRGINITY CLUB.

Pure Dead Magic
I'v been reading this series of books by Debi Glilori. It's rather nameless, though the titles all begin with Pure Dead, unless you live in Europe, which we don't. The first one is called Pure Dead Magic. It's a fusion of Addams family, Roald Dahl, Lemony Snicket, and a tiny sprinkle of Mary Poppins. Fans of any of the above will love it.
It's about a Scottish family-Signor Luciano Strega-Borgia, Signora Baci Strega-Borgia, Titus, Pandora, baby sister Damp, griffin Sab, yeti Knot, dragon Ffup, tarantula Tarantella, rat Multitudina +babies, and cyrogenically-preserved great-great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandmother Strega Nonna. And that's not including the help. Luciano has vanished, baby Damp has disappeared into the computer, and Baci is going crazy with her classes in wizardry. New nanny Flora McLachlan will have to save the day.

I first heard about this book after a friend of mine read it. I wasn't really sure at first if I should have read it but in the end it turned out to be a really good book. It talks about the main character, Eddie, who works as the maintainer for an amusement park called Ruby Pier. On his birthday, he loses his life while saving a little girl from being crushed by one of the rides called Freddie's Freefall. He goes to heaven but its not how he expects it. He meets five people in each of their own heavens and they teach him something about his life and how they contributed to it. In the end he creates his own heaven and waits for his person to come so that he can tell them about their life. I recommend this book to kids and adults of all ages because it can teach you something important about your life.

A Jar of Dream By: Yoshiko Ushida
A Jar of Dreams is about a young Japanese eleven-year-old girl Rinko who lives in California and wants to be like everyone else. This book many focuses on believing in yourself and following your dreams through hard work. This is a story about a Japanese family that lives in San Fransisco, California in the 1930`s. They're having problems with paying their bills. So they use their dreams and hard work to get money. This book teaches you a life lesson. It says you cannot just give up you have to stay with your dreams and hopes. You will not make money if you do things the way you do not like it, and when the book told me this I know that it's realistic fiction because things happen like that today. You should read this book because it displays history, irony, sadness, and your past that could and might happen. So if you like this kind of stuff you should read this book. It is AWESOME!

Maximum Ride
There's a trilogy called Maximum Ride. It's about these 6 kids who are 98% human and 2% bird......weird. The main characters are Max, Fang, Iggy, Nudge, the Gasman, and Angel. They have wings and can fly. They also have strange powers. Max is a 14-year-old girl who everyone considers the leader. Fang is the calm and collected one who rarely ever talks. Iggy is blind, because the villains (the School, Erasers, and White-coats) made him that way when trying to enhance his night-vision. Nudge is an African-American girl who is the exact opposite of Fang.....she talks too much. The Gasman... well, his name must be pretty self-explanatory...he farts...a lot. Angel is basically a little angel, she's only about 6, 7, or 8. This book is a cross between science-fiction, fantasy, and if you look at it one way, it's kind of like a chic-flick. It's great!!! Violence, comedy, love, and action all rolled into one book!!!!!!!! READ IT!!!!!!!!!! (or the Erasers will get you........^ . ^;;)

New Moon is the book you want to read if you love romance and suspense! It is also the second book of three. It continues to tell about a human girl, named Bella Swan, and her strong but dangerous relationship with a gorgeously beautiful vampire, named Edward Cullen! The story tells about how their jeopardized relationship lingers, takes its turns, and how it turns out. Especially when it's gotten way past the point of when Bella get so hurt physically and her heart gets broken emotionally. Until she wakes up and starts all over by becoming the best of friends (or maybe more than just friends) with Jacob Black, who actually turns into a werewolf, after. Bella's life gets even more challenging when she remembers that werewolves and vampires are arch enemies. But, whenever she plans to do something reckless or stupid and breaks her promise to Edward, she has "hallucinations" and hears what she'd longed for for months-- his soft, velvet voice warning and pleading. But for her to save the one she's in love with from doing the worst mistake in his and her life, as well as keeping her other strong friendship/relationship with Jacob, she must go through many hard times and take many sacrifices. BUT, to fall deeper into this dreamy fantasy, as I have, and know the details, read it!! AND YOU'LL THANK ME!!! ;D |

The Princess Diaries
This Fall Break, for lack of a better thing to do, I read the eight Princess Diaries books by Meg Cabot. They were in the style of diary entries. I guess they were okay, but I think that the main character has a very annoying personality. She never said what she meant to and she never stood up for herself, but she was always whining about something or other in her diary, and that frustrated me. Recommended only to kill time, and only for girls.

The Shamer's Daughter
The Shamer's Daughter is the first book in The Shamer's Chronicles (1.The Shamer's Daughter, 2.The Shamer's Signet, 3.The Serpent Gift, 4.The Shamer's War). This book is a "must read" book and once you start you might not be able to stop till you reach the end. I hope that anyone who reads this book will enjoy it as much as I did. :-)
The Daughters of the moon series
I think the daughters of the moon series is great. Its about four girls; Vanessa, Catty, Serena, and Jimena and they all have a special secret. Vanessa can become invisible, Catty goes back and fourth into the future, Serena reads minds and Jimena has premonitions. The series is great and if you like romance, comedy, and action this is the book for you!

This series by George R. R. Martin is the best! It's about royals that lived in a fantasy world, and how they all live just to live or, in some cases, to rule. It's a really interesting series, because each person in the books have different stories from different points of view. If you like war, fantasy, secrets, and romance these are the books for you!

Hello everyone!
The Sister Hood of The Traveling Pants is a story about 4 best friends who are going away on their first summer apart. They are really worried about leaving each other, but a shared pair of pants help to keep them all together. They believe that these pants are magic and so with the magic pants, there are rules that go along with them. Here are the rules:
1- You must NEVER wash the pants.
2- You must never double cuff the Pants. It's tacky. There will never be a time when this will not be tacky.
3- You must never say the word"phat" while wearing the Pants. You must also never think to your self "I am fat" while wearing the pants.
4- You must never let a boy take off the pants (although you may take them off yourself in his presence).
5- You must not pick your nose while wearing the Pants. You may scratch your nose casually while really kind of picking.
6- Upon our reunion, you must follow proper procedures for documenting your time in the pants:
-on the left leg of pants, write the most exciting place that you have been while wearing the pants.
-on the right leg of the pants you must exciting thing that happend to you while wearig the pants. for example( "I hooked up with my cousin Ivan while wearng the pants. ")
7- you must write to your sisters through out the summer, no matter how much fun you may be having with out them.
8- You must pass the pants on to your sisters according to the spcifications set down by the sisterhood. failure to comply will result in a severe spanking upon our reunion.
9- you must not wear the pants with a tucked-in shirt and belt. see rule #2
10-Remember: pants = love. love your pals love yourself.
lot of rules, but hey that is the sisterhood. these books were really good. so try them enjoy them love them, if you are in to that sort of romace thing.
enjoy and happy reading-
romance lover.

This book is from a sieres called, Hawai'i Chillers. It takes place on O`ahu and Hawai`i Volcanoes National Park. The main characters are Mark and Malia. Mark was the pilau one and Malia was the decision maker. It all happened on a trip to Hawai`i Island.

Everybody knows that you are not suppoesed to steal any of Pele's children( volcanic rocks) from the park. Right! But Mark took her children!

Missionary's Ghost

This book took place in the Old Lahaina Inn of room 13, I thought Missionary's Ghost was a very chilling and exciting book to read. When you get more into this book the missionary ghost is evil and needs Nani and Kimo's help which are the kids that are staying in room 13. But the twist is that the missionary doesn't want eternal peace, the ghost wants revenge... I definitely recommend this book if you like scary Hawai'i stories.This would be a really good Fall Break or even Summer book to read!

Gate Keepers
Nightrise is a book about a pair of twins with powers. That's all I know because I didn't read it yet. Nightrise is the third book of a series called The Gate Keepers or The Power of Five. I read the first two and they are awesome!!! The first book follows a boy named Matt, who learns that he is one of 5 kids who have powers to close these gate things. The second book still follows Matt, but he travels to Peru from England to find the second gate keeper, whose name is Pedro. Matt has a kind of power that only activates when he can smell something burning. Pedro can heal someone just by being near them. For people who like books about adventure, suspense, and fantasy, the Gate Keepers series is right for you. The first book is called Raven's Gate, the second is Evil Star, and the third - which I am about to read - is Nightrise. You should read it. IT'S AWESOME!!!!!!!!!!!

Harry Potter And The Prisoner Of Azkaban

Harry Potter And The Prisoner Of Azkaban is a the third book of the Harry Potter series. It is the young Harry's third year at the magical school of Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. Harry's god father Sirius Black escapes for the wizard prison Azkaban and comes after harry when he is at school. Dementors which are the guards of Azkaban are stationed at all of the entrances of the school. When you are near them it is like all happiness is sucked out of the earth. Harry uncovers the truth about the betrayal of his parents friend Wormtail. Whom is responsible for his parents murders. Harry concures the potronus charm and saves his god fathers life. I am not going to tell you detail so you will have to read it to enter the magical world. BUT you have to read the first 2 books or you might not get some parts.
The Daughters of the Moon
Hey book peeps! So at the moment I'm really into fantasy "slash" horror books. When I was in Borders at the beginning of this summer, I saw this really cool looking book out of the corner of my eye. I picked it up, and the title was The Daughters of the Moon. It's a series about four girls, Vanessa, Catty, Serena, and Jimena, who are desendence of the goddess of the moon. They each have a special power to help them to defeat the Atrox and its Followers. The Atrox is kind of like the darkness in the movie Twitches (I hope that I'm not confusing you guys if you haven't seen the movie). The Atrox's main goal is to defeat the daughters of the moon and to rule the world!! I believe this is a must read series for all fantasy lovers!!
The Golden Compass
So. I was at the movie theater, when I saw the previews for the Golden Compass. I thought it looked interesting, so I decided I should read the book before I watched the movie right? Well, the book was so interesting! It had a very confusing plot line, but it was entertaining! It starts off with Lyra and her daemon, Pan, sneaking in to a room that they weren't allowed in. They see the Master put poison into Lord Asriel's Tokay, so they tell him when he comes in. This catapults them into an adventure they've never known, and the destiny they do not know they will have to face. Read it! It's awesome!!

Pride and Prejudice
I'm reading this book called Pride and Prejudice. It was written in 1813 in England, so it's really kind of old and Britishy. It's funny, in a British way, and it's really kind of romantic at some points. It features things that we wouldn't think of today, like when Elizabeth Bennet stays all week in her sister's room because she has a bad cold. People want other people to go to balls, and associate with each other there, everyone's sole purpose is to find a husband or wife, and they have very long, complex conversations and arguments. It can be hard to follow, but it really is a good book.
