The Lost City of Faar (Pendragon, #2)The Lost City of Faar by D.J. MacHale

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


This book was a heck of a lot better than the first. At least that's what I thought. We pick off right where Bobby has finally woken up from his nap. He goes back to his house to find out that all there is, is an empty lot. There is no sign that Bobby had ever lived here. His family is gone and his home is gone. So now he is going with his Uncle Press to the territory of Cloral. Cloral is where Saint Dane has gone and now Press and Bobby are on their way there. When they reach they see that there is no mortal terror that has arrived. Yet. Soon enough, all of Cloral's crops have been poisoned. And the only way to stop this disease, is to find the missing city of Faar. Will Bobby save Cloral's population, or will all of Cloral die out? Like I said before, this book is a lot better than the first. D.J MacHale has captured the reader's attention and now, more than ever, MacHale has sucked me and many others into the world of Pendragon.

Amanda is about to turn eleven. She is so excited about everything. Except for one thing. This will be the first time she doesn't spend her birthday with Leo. Leo was her best friend until last year when he said he wasn't her friend behind Amanda's back. So the next morning, she wakes up to a new day. Or is she? Her birthday seems to be repeating itself over and over again. Is there a way to stop it? I liked this book. I thought that it was fairly well written and i think that younger kids will love this book a lot.

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Jeremy Fink is about to turn thirteen but isn't quite sure that he has what it takes to be a teenager. He isn't really out going and he doesn't really like surprises. His best friend Lizzy, is the total opposite of that. She is an extrovert and loves to do anything adventurous. When a mysterious box arrives at Jeremy's door, he is surprised to find out that ihe is supposed to open it on his birthday. This box says that is contains the meaning of life! But the keys are missing to open the box. Jeremy and Lizzy go on an adventure to find the missing keys and learn the meaning of life. Wendy Mass is wonderful. This was the first book I had read by her and I must say that she is one of my favorite authors. I hope you enjoy just as much as I did.

The Angel Experiment (Maximum Ride, #1)The Angel Experiment by James Patterson

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Maximum Ride was a well-written, sci-fi book that will excite the readers of those who love experiments. And DNA transfers. Actually that's what this whole book revolves around. Meet Max, Gasman, Fang, Angel, Izzy, and Nudge. They are all one big, normal family. Not. They may be family but they are 4 percent bird. Shortly after the birth of these six children, scientists implanted DNA from birds into these children. These people now are living on their own trying to survive and not get caught by the Erasers. Unfortunately, Angel happened to get caught, and now, everyone is on the run trying to get Angel back. Will they survive? This book is great for anyone who needs a twist on the classic sci-fi stories.

The Merchant of Death (Pendragon, #1)The Merchant of Death by D.J. MacHale

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Pendragon is a fast-paced, action-packed novel filled with every ounce of detail combined to create a magnificent book. Pendragon is about a young boy named Bobby who's Uncle Press, is not you average uncle. He is a traveler, meaning that he travels to different territories through flumes. What Bobby doesn't know is that he is also a traveler. When Bobby's uncle shows up at his house one day he takes him through a flume into the territory of Denduron. In Denduron there is trouble and Bobby is the one who is supposed to save civilization. If he doesn't all the territories will fall into destruction. Will Bobby be the one to save the world? Or will he let it all tumble down? This book is truly amazing. Even those middle school boys who say that reading is for nerds will love Pendragon. Pendragon is the next big thing.
