The Guinevere Deception by Kiersten White

A decent twist on an Arthurian legend. The characters were good and had a nice amount of complexity. The setting and descriptions were fairly good. Overall, an enjoyable read.

Blended by Sharon M. Draper

Blended is an amazing book. Once you start you will not want to stop. :) Her mom is white and her dad is black. She faces many challenges growing up but the best is yet to come.

It's a great manga! Mostly about a kid who is a jinchuriki and how everyone hates him and he wants to be a hokage!

The War That Saved My Life by Kimberly Brubaker Bradley

It was a good book. It was about a girl that had a foot that was twisted. There was a war in England and she had to evacuate the city and went to a foster home. There she met a horse and her foster mom.

The Watsons Go to Birmingham - 1963 by Christopher Paul Curtis

The Watsons are really funny and go through adventurous things every day. Most of the Watsons are kind or funny or else brave enough to go on dangerous adventures. When their oldest son behaves bad they go on a trip to Birmingham, Alabama. They go through bad events then (the church getting bombed).

45 Pounds (More or Less) by K.A. Barson

This story was very interesting and I really liked parts where she was at work and with her family. There were sad and very happy parts. There were also parts of revealing different things about people. This book was about bullying as well, which I could kind of connect to. I think this story was very interesting.

Fire Emblem: Three Houses (video game)

In Fire Emblem: Three Houses, you take the role of Byleth, a mercenary-turned-professor at Garreg Mach. You get to choose 3 houses, the Golden Deer, the Blue Lions, and the Black Eagles, each with their own people. I enjoy the gameplay and character interactions. The game is very fun and it deserves 6 out of 5 stars.

Red Queen by Victoria Aveyard

It is a very interesting book filled with action. It is about a girl who ends up having lightning powers. This book is one of my favorite books.

Blended by Sharon M. Draper

Blended shows how much racism goes through the world. Isabella’s parents are divorced. Her mom is white and her dad is black. This novel also shows what life is like for people with divorced parents. This book is a great representation of the difficulties that many people go through in everyday life. I highly recommend this book for many people struggling with the same difficulties.
