The Boy on Cinnamon Street by Phoebe Stone

Louise Terrance has a secret admirer who she thinks is the pizza delivery boy because notes and chalk hearts show up soon after he leaves.  All through the book Louise and her friend try to find the boy but are surprised when they find out who it is.

I liked this book because it's dramatic, mysterious and girls my age can relate to it.  I can truly recommend this book to students, mostly girls.

The Boy at the End of the World by Greg Van Eekhout

A boy is introduced to the world when he was thirteen.  He eventually realizes that the world is a dangerous place, nothing compared to his birth pod.  But there is much more to learn about.  Earth is now his home.

I liked this book because it has a lot of adventure.  While you are reading this book you will feel as if you are in it and you are doing all these difficult things.  This book may scare and hurt you sometimes, but it was the best book I have ever read.  I definitely Highly recommend it to you!!!!

The Peculiar by Stefan Bachmann

In the slums of Bath, "Don't get yourself noticed and won't get yourself hanged," are the words the half-bloods must live by to survive the hatred from the humans. Everything goes wrong when a lady in Plum shoes up and takes the Buddelbinster Boy (Bartholomew's neighbor). This book is told in two stories following a half-blood named Bartholomew and a wealthy man that goes by the name of Aurthor Jeliby. Both of them join forces to stop evil Mr. Lickeresh. This compelling book teaches themes of segregation between different creatures.

I loved the book because it was kind of scary and was full of action, and when you read one part you would think that things could not get any worse, but they would. I also liked the way the author wrote the series of the events. That was following 2 main different points of view. A boy named Bartholomew and a man called Aurthor Jelliby.

I loved the book The Peculiar because it is mysterious and scary. It has tons of adventure and it's very exciting. The author is amazing with his words.It's a great book for points and will keep you reading.

The Key by Michael Grant

 
In the Mag 12 series, seemingly ordinary children discover they are part of an ancient force of magical warriors who must first find all 12 members of the Magnifica and then save the world from the pale queen and her army. The Key is the third book in the series. Mack and his friends must find the key to help understand their powers. While they are racing around Europe, Mack's Golum is home filling for him at home and school.

Some chapters are a little slow but the parts with the Golum are so funny and sarcastic.I also like the character Sylvie and how she is described. People who like Mr. Johnson's sarcasm will love this book.

Nevermore: A Maximum Ride Novel by James Patterson

Nevermore is an adventurous, exciting, and also romantic book about 6 extraordinary kids who are 98% human and 2% Avian-Bird. Nevermore is the eighth book in the Maximum Ride series, and all eight books are about Max, Fang, Iggy, Nudge, Gazzy, Angel, and Dylan. Dylan is introduced in book 6. Max and Fang finally get together, and Dylan, who was very close to stealing Max's heart, lost it all once Fang comes back to the flock. Fang leaves the flock in book six and returns in book eight because Angel, who is trapped in the "school," sends Fang a telepathic message, which convinced him to go back to Max.

I liked this book because it has romance, action, and adventure. The Maximum Ride series is my favorite because I love how James Patterson introduces and describes the characters. He is my favorite author and I wish he could write many more books that are similar to the Maximum Ride series. Thank you for reading my review.

The Great Unexpected by Sharon Creech

Two girls, Lizzie and Naomi are both foster kids.  They live on Blackbird Street.  One day while they are playing by a tree,   a boy falls out of nowhere.  Then a couple days later the Dingle-Dangle man comes and asks a bunch of odd questions about the boy.  He seems very suspicious.  Read The Great Unexpected to discover the amazing mystery of the boy and how his story changes Lizzie's and Naomi's life.

I really liked it because the main characters Lizzie and Naomi would be people I would be friends with.  Lizzie likes to sing and Naomi would just be a fun person to be around.  I also liked it because it is a weird book with the Dingle-Dangle Man, Witch Wiggins and Crazy Cora.  You should really read this book.
