Bad Luck by Pseudonymous Bosch My rating: 2 of 5 stars It's really hard for me to keep everything straight in this series. You never know from one moment to the next who is good and who is evil. In a way that's good, but I don't know. It makes it hard for me to … Continue reading Bad Luck

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. Adding time travel into the mix just made it that much more enjoyable, especially when things like the great wall of China was explained. … Continue reading The Tremendous Baron Time Machine
The Map to Everywhere
The Map to Everywhere by Carrie Ryan My rating: 3 of 5 stars This is one of those books that I randomly picked up at the library because the title sounded interesting. So, score one for drawing a reader in before they even know what the book is about. I'm not really big into high-fantasy, … Continue reading The Map to Everywhere
The Odd Squad: Bully Bait
The Odd Squad Bully Bait by Michael Fry My rating: 2 of 5 stars This book was a fun read, but I feel like it's one that is more enjoyable if you are in the target age range.

Time Jumpers
Time Jumpers by Brandon Mull My rating: 3 of 5 stars This is one of those books that I'm going to have to read over again to figure out how I really feel about the ending. Ending a series is hard, but Brandon Mull has always managed to do it wonderfully. I own all of … Continue reading Time Jumpers
Falling Over Sideways
Falling Over Sideways by Jordan Sonnenblick My rating: 3 of 5 stars I applaud Jordan Sonnenblick for taking on this book. The subject matter is not happy go lucky like a lot of books written for this age group, but it is real, which I feel is really important. There are plenty of fantasy novels … Continue reading Falling Over Sideways
