The Lost Hero by Rick Riordan

This was a very good book. Jason, the main character, lost his memory and found himself at Camp Half-Blood. Throughout the book he ends up fighting monsters while trying to save a goddess who has stolen his memory.

Escape from Mr. Lemoncello's Library by Chris Grabenstein

Guardians of Ga'Hoole: The Coming of Hoole by Kathryn Lasky

This book is one of a 15-book series. It is very good. This book series is about owls and they live in a big tree all together. They have a fully established monarchy, books, and school!

The Fault in Our Stars by John Green

Hazel Grace Lancaster has thyroid cancer, and she hates Support Group. But one day she meets Augustus Waters and falls immediately, irreparably, irrevocably in love. They have many adventures together, but at the end...well, I won't spoil it.

The only reason this book is saved from the one-star group is I really liked some of the characters. It had some incredibly lacking moments, and Augustus was deep to the point where I got confused. Honestly, I don't see how this book has such a big fandom.

Gone by Michael Grant

Gone is a thrilling book. All parents and teen are gone in a flash of a second. Two groups are at war & sides are being chosen.

The Cold Is in Her Bones by Peternelle van Arsdale

Snakes, salt, and farmhouses. The story The Cold Is in Her Bones is very interesting from page one. It uses relatable characters and unique sentence structures to keep any reader engaged.

Brotherband: The Hunters by John Flanagan

"Land! I can see land!" Stig shouted. This is the first line in Brotherhood: The Hunters. Despite the unassuming first line, this story makes me long to read it, even when I'm not supposed to. This story has humor, fun quotes, and an adventure that satisfies my soul and my thirst for good stories that keep me hooked. I especially like how Lydia admires Thorn, yet she chooses not to show it. Truly a masterpiece!

Aliens on Vacation by Clete Barrett Smith

A really good book about a kid whose grandmother's Bed-and-Breakfast isn't really what it looks like to outsiders. He (the kid) has to keep his grandmother's secret safe from others during his summertime stay. An amazing fiction that you should read!

Oz: The Wonderful Wizard of Oz (graphic novel) by L. Frank Baum, adapted by Eric Shanower

Basically everything in the original. Has a more detailed version of everyone's backstory. They also have to go through challenges to get to the Emerald City.

Aru Shah and the Song of Death by Roshani Chokshi

This book was very enjoyable. It has a humor and excitable energy reminiscent of a Rick Riordan novel. With a fast paced plot and a new spin on Hindu Mythology, The Song of Death serenades you with nonstop thrills and discoveries.

Checked by Cynthia Kadohata

11-year-old Conor is an avid hockey player who spends most of his time on the ice. Then, his dog gets sick and he's forced to make some tough choices about what really matters. This book really makes you think about what matters most in life and it's very relatable.

JoJo's Bizarre Adventure - Phantom Blood by Hirohiko Araki

Honestly not that many bad things to say about this. I like the history, characters, and plot, but I feel Speedwagon is underrated. Everyone knows Speedwagon is a top tier waifu, but he does not get nearly enough screen time. Because of this, I must lower my rating to 4 stars.

Peppa Pig - Shopping (TV episode)

Peppa Pig mixed up some food, but the plot was great. I especially loved the repeated and dramatic entrance of the chocolate cake.

Edgewood by Karen McQuestion

It is good. It is mystery and crime. It has some aliens which is really cool. I give it a 4. It could be a 5 but it kind of is a cliffhanger. It never ends. That is annoying.

Night by Elie Wiesel

It's a book about when a teenager named Elie Wiesel who is a Jew spent his days in Auschwitz Concentration Camp thinking about death, faith in God, and survival.
