I Text Dead People by Rose Cooper My rating: 3 of 5 stars This was a fun read. The characters had more going on than the reader is initially led to believe, and their intentions seem sketchy at best most of the time. Part of me has to wonder why Annabel kept the phone for … Continue reading I Text Dead People

Return
Return by Aaron Becker My rating: 2 of 5 stars This is the first picture book I've ever seen that is actually part of a trilogy. I kind of wonder how that works. I checked this one out at the library without knowing that there are two previous books, so I'm sure the story line … Continue reading Return
The Hero’s Guide to Saving Your Kingdom
The Hero's Guide to Saving Your Kingdom by Christopher Healy My rating: 3 of 5 stars I like reading new spins on classic fairy tales, and this book was a good one. In a way, it kind of mocked the classic stories. The classic stories have the princesses who are protected and saved by Prince … Continue reading The Hero’s Guide to Saving Your Kingdom
The Worst Witch
The Worst Witch by Jill Murphy My rating: 3 of 5 stars I started reading this series after I had already watched the first season of the Netflix show. I have to say, this is one of those raw times when I can truly say that I like both. They have their differences, but I … Continue reading The Worst Witch
Ivy and Bean
Ivy and Bean by Annie Barrows My rating: 3 of 5 stars I'm pretty sure a friendship like these two have is what every little kid really wants. This book shows kids that first impressions are not always correct, and you are capable of creating your own magic. Of course, a bunch of worms never … Continue reading Ivy and Bean
The Chicken Squad: The First Misadventure
The Chicken Squad: The First Misadventure by Doreen Cronin My rating: 3 of 5 stars I read the first book in the J.J. Tully series before reading this, so I did have some background on the characters before I started. I found that this book provides enough background that the reader does not have to … Continue reading The Chicken Squad: The First Misadventure
Wade and the Scorpion’s Claw
Wade and the Scorpion's Claw by Tony Abbott My rating: 2 of 5 stars So, this book was kind of difficult to understand because I have not actually read The Copernicus Legacy series. Turns out my library doesn't even have that series, but for some reason, they have The Copernicus Archives. If you can figure … Continue reading Wade and the Scorpion’s Claw
Fizzopolis: The Trouble with Fuzzwonker Fizz
Fizzopolis: The Trouble with Fuzzwonker Fizz by Patrick Carman My rating: 4 of 5 stars The world Patrick Carman created for this series is really cute. The illustrations help bring the story to life since Fizzies are not normal everyday creatures. The juxtaposition between good and bad candy companies is great, especially since Floyd seems … Continue reading Fizzopolis: The Trouble with Fuzzwonker Fizz
The Battle Begins
The Battle Begins by Tony Abbott My rating: 3 of 5 stars I'm really glad this book is the first in a series. I feel like it would have been really rushed if the whole story was in one book. So far, the story line is interesting, and I can't wait to see what happens … Continue reading The Battle Begins
How to Train Your Dragon
How to Train Your Dragon by Cressida Cowell My rating: 3 of 5 stars After reading this book, I really want to watch the movie again. I know there are a lot of differences between the two, but I can't remember if some great parts of the book are in the movie. If I remember … Continue reading How to Train Your Dragon
