No. 6 by Atsuko Asano

 

I love this book because it is so action-packed and detailed.  The main characters Rat and Shion are complete opposites.  Rat is the tough one, he has experienced a lot of things and knows his way around No. 6.  And Shion is a goody two shoes who has absolutely no street smarts and thinks No. 6 is a perfect world and the ideal city until he meets Rat, then he starts questioning the city of No. 6.

Yolk by Mary H. K. Choi

 

This book is one of my favorite books because it is extremely detailed and does not have a necessarily happy or sad or cliffhanger, it has a happy melancholy ending.  When Jayne's sister gets stage 4 cancer and then she couldn't get surgery so she had to use her sister's college insurance and then her sister had to move to her house and she eventually finds out that her sister has cancer, read to find out what happens next!?

The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V. E. Schwab

 

This book brought many emotions: sadness and hope are just a few.  It is a great novel depicting the dangers of wanting too much and making the wrong decisions.  I highly recommend this book to everyone.

One of Us is Lying by Karen M. McManus

 

If you love thrillers then this is a great book for you.  This book always has you on the edge of your seat.  This book is one of my all-time favorites and is a definite must read.

One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest by Ken Kesey

 

I really enjoyed this book.  It has many underlying themes and symbolism.  I thought it was well-written as each character had a role and added to the themes of the story.

It Ends With Us by Colleen Hoover

 

This book was a masterpiece, it made me go through so many emotions, I cried at least three times.  So many shocking twists and turns.  I'm so glad Lily got out of that relationship, I felt like a proud mom.

The Legend of Zelda: Twilight Princess by Akira Himekawa

 

Amazing!  Best book I've ever read!!!

You've Reached Sam by Dustin Thao

 

You've Reached Sam is a great story and takes you through an emotional rollercoaster.  The story follows a girl who grieves the death of her boyfriend, when one day she is able to communicate with him again.  There were a few things that I wish were displayed differently, however, that isn't a reason to stop yourself from reading this book.  :)

You'll Be the Death of Me by Karen M. McManus

You'll Be the Death of Me is a murder mystery book.  This book follows Ivy, Mateo, and Cal.  This book takes place when one of their classmates is killed.  I love the books written by this author because in all of her books the characters are always hiding something and it is fun to uncover exactly what their secrets are.  The reason I didn't give this book a full 5 stars is because it can be a little confusing at times and a little hard to follow the story in some parts.
 

Daughter of the Deep by Rick Riordan

 

Daughter of the Deep follows a girl named Ana.  Ana's world was turned upside down two years ago when her parents mysteriously died on a mission in the ocean.  It's turned upside down again when her home, a marine academy named Harding-Pencroft, along with everyone who goes there that isn't a freshman, is blown up, including her brother.  The freshman class was on their way to their final evaluation when the school was destroyed so they are the only survivors of Harding-Pencroft.  To survive they must face their rivals, the Land Institute, and race to get the ultimate weapon first.  It's the same thing that killed Ana's parents.  All throughout the book you follow revelations and betrayals during the quest.  THIS BOOK SETS UP FOR MORE BOOKS BUT IT IS A STANDALONE!!  WHY?!?  WHY?!?

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

I haven't finished it yet, but so far it's great.  I love the plot and the characters.  In this book Harry is accused of being the heir of Slytherin.  Harry, Ron, and Hermione try to prove that Harry is not.  But the evidence is against him.  Is it Draco Malfoy, Harry Potter, or someone else - who could it be?
 

With the Might of Angels by Andrea Davis Pinkney

 

Dawnie is an intelligent African American girl who meets the standards of an all-white school.  It was written referring to the mid-50s and she had gotten made fun of.  I like this book because it talks about her struggles in that school, and also she plays baseball too.

Aru Shah and the End of Time by Roshani Chokshi

 

The Aru Shah series is based on Hindu mythology, specifically the Pandavas, the five warrior princes.  I would give it a 4, because the mythology isn't really accurate, but it is still very interesting.

An Emotion of Great Delight by Tahereh Mafi

 

This book was one of my favorite books and I 100% recommend it.  This book shows all the aspects of emotions.  The main character's brother died, shortly after her dad had two hear attacks.  Since her dad is on the verge of dying, her mom has been self-harming herself and was sent to the hospital.  The doctor thought she was her older sister, and told her news she didn't want to hear!

Super Fake Love Song by David Yoon

 

This book was one of my favorite books of all time because it was really descriptive and showed all of the aspects of lying.  I liked this book because it was relatable and the author, David Yoon, is one of my favorite authors.  This book is about a character, Sunny Dae, and his parents' friends' family moved to the city and Sunny tells a lie to their daughter he would regret for his whole life!

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone by J. K. Rowling

This book is about a boy named Harry.  He didn't know he was a wizard, but when letters start coming addressed to him things get weird.  His next step is Hogwarts where he meets Ron Weasley and Hermione Granger.  They later find a mystery to uncover: is it Professor Snape or someone else?
 

Refugee by Alan Gratz

 

Refugee is about three different people from different periods of time and places.  One character is from Israel, trying to escape the Nazis.  This perspective is my favorite with a close tie from the other perspectives.  He talks about how his dad is suffering from the traumas of getting beaten by the Nazis, and what difficulties his family went through.

Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck

 

This is an amazing book that fit a lot of action and emotion into a short story teaching us about the importance of friendship and struggle.

Keeper of the Lost Cities by Shannon Messenger

 

I really enjoyed the book.  It was a fantasy fiction and is definitely competing with Harry Potter and that's saying a lot!

Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire by J. K. Rowling

 

This book is perfect for people who like fantasy.  It involves a little bit of creepy too!  Harry Potter gets his name picked from the goblet of fire!  Except he didn't put his name in there.  This book keeps you on your toes the whole time!

Five Nights at Freddy's : The Silver Eyes by Scott Cawthon

 

Really great book any fan of Five Nights at Freddy's will enjoy.  There's lots of creepy details and action, it's a really great storyline and thee are two other books in the series that are also amazing.
