Sal and Gabi Break the Universe
Sal and Gabi Break the Universe by Carlos Hernandez My rating: 3 of 5 stars I don't know what I was expecting from this book, but this was a wild ride from start to finish.

The Super Life of Ben Braver
The Super Life of Ben Braver by Marcus Emerson My rating: 4 of 5 stars This is one of those books that I picked up at a Scholastic warehouse sale because it looked interesting and the little blurb I read sounded good.

Spy School
Spy School by Stuart Gibbs My rating: 3 of 5 stars I'm not going to lie, I've been reading these books out of order. I started with book 5 not knowing who any of the characters were or their backstories. Now that I have finally read the first one, it makes me appreciate what happens … Continue reading Spy School
The Fire Within
The Fire Within by Chris d'Lacey My rating: 3 of 5 stars This is the second time I've read this book. I really like this series, the ending just kind of confused me, so I'm giving it another shot.

The Tremendous Baron Time Machine
The Tremendous Baron Time Machine by Eric Bower My rating: 4 of 5 stars This series is just fun. It's one of those that doesn't even try to take itself seriously.

Competence
Competence by Gail Carriger My rating: 4 of 5 stars Um, so Prim is my favorite character out of ALL the different series. I mean, I know her mother is, well, special...but Prim takes it to a whole other level. I would really enjoy a random sub-series of the adventures of Prim. It wouldn't be … Continue reading Competence
Hello, Universe
Hello, Universe by Erin Entrada Kelly My rating: 3 of 5 stars This was a really cute book that I feel teaches important lessons, especially in today's world. The kids in this book are not your average kids. One is deaf, one is anxious, and one has family issues, but they are still just kids … Continue reading Hello, Universe
