The Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan

 It is a good book.  It has plot twists, it is very detailed, it has a nice mission and a great journey between the whole book.  It has lots of action and drama and a very great setting/mood.

The Golden Spoon by Jessa Maxwell

 The Golden Spoon is a murder mystery that takes place in competition sort of like the Great British Baking Show.  This book was about 300 pages long and it took 250 pages for a murder to happen.  This book was very slowly paced and there was an unnecessary amount of character backstory.  The ending was very rushed and predictable and very anti-climatic.  Overall I wouldn't recommend this book unless you like slow paced books and aren't actually looking for a murder mystery.

All These Things I've Done by Gabrielle Zevin

 This book is set in 2083 where Anya's dad died and he was in charge of a big coffee brand.  In this time, coffee and chocolate were illegal and through spending time at high school with her friends and taking care of her siblings, she is put through many hardships that eventually she overcame... or not.

I Fell in Love with Hope by Lancali

 A beautiful and devastating story about life, loss, disease, death, and love, this story follows five chronically ill kids as they attempt to steal back every memory disease has taken away from them and the hope that connects them all.  A sensitive, thoughtful, heartbreaking, and uplifting novel that will make you feel all emotions.

Sing Me to Sleep by Gabi Burton

 This book start revealing a terrifying truth: Saoirse is a siren.  She has dangerous powers and is constantly fighting the urge to attack and kill.  If this secret got out, she would be put to death.  Slowly, the web of lies she is surrounded in gets more tangled and Saoirse is forced to make impossible decisions.  This book is great for teens who enjoy fantasy and suspense. 

The Great Gatsby by F. Scott Fitzgerald

 I think that this book gave a very interesting insight into the location and time period the book took place.  The ending of the story also had a very unique plot twist.  I also believe that this book teaches many lessons.

The Lemonade War by Jacqueline Davies

 This book in my opinion is a good book because it teaches kids more about business and some business phrases.  It also teaches kids about competitors and competition between businesses.  It is a good book to learn about businesses for kids.
