Lodestar, the fifth book in the Keeper of the Lost Cities series by Shannon Messenger, is another epic page-turning book. The fight with the Neverseen is still ongoing. Sophie Foster doesn't know who or what to trust. With her friend Keefe gone and life a blur, there is a possibility that the lost cities will never return normal again. But there is a new clue, and that clue may lead Sophie, her friends, and the Black Swan to the answer of the mess. It leads to dangers, risk-taking, and maybe even failure. But Sophie isn't going to let the Neverseen win. She isn't giving up without a fight. This book was so exciting for me because every chapter constantly left me in suspense. I also loved how Tam and Linh Song were introduced in this book. Just saying, this is from the #1 KOTLC fan.

This is my favorite book series EVER! I really wish they'd make a movie of the books. (Not anyone but Universal, otherwise they'd mutilate it) It has betrayal, battles, war, queens, friendship, romance, action, jokes, Hunger Games-style arena warfare, prophecies, secrets, and characters you love (Hello, DoD, and you too, Jade Winglet. Also Darkstalker, Deathbringer, and Riptide. 'Cuz they're too awesome) and characters you'll hate. (coughcough Scarlet, Morrowseer, Blister, and Burn cough) I can not believe that Warriors is more popular than this. I mean, Warriors is okay, but it kind of "lost the magic," by the time the second series rolled around. This one is still going strong. And it has DRAGONS! Not to mention, when I reread Warriors, I thought "I read this in the second grade?" (When I was in 2nd grade, I was OBSESSED with Warriors. I don't really recall why.) Long story short: 2nd grade. Bedtime. Couldn't get to sleep. Pulled out A Dangerous Path. Mom made a 'no Warriors at bedtime' rule after that. (What? Those dogs were scary as heck.) Now, this does have some violence. (Mostly in the first book, because, hey, when much of the plot revolves around an arena where dragons fight to the death, not everyone's gonna make it out alive) But unlike Warriors, you usually won't be lying awake at night because you're afraid to go to sleep. (Though I did have a couple of nightmares about these once.) All in all, this series is five stars out of five!!!!! (For age rating, I would read this to a MATURE 3rd grader and up. Don't read it to younger kids unless you know them well and they are very hardy. I mean, like, 2nd grade. Don't read these to kindergartners. They probably wouldn't get it anyway.)

I LOVE Caraval! It’s my absolute favorite book series! It’s about this game called Caraval that blurs between reality and fantasy. The other two books in the series are just as good! I would highly recommend this trilogy to readers that love fantasy, adventure, mystery, and a hint of romance! Go check it out! You’re gonna love it!

I think this book was great!!! It has everything a good book needs 1. good name 2. a good cover 3. a GREAT story

This book is very cool! Two kids named Travis and Corey come to visit their grandmother for summer. They soon find out that the inn is said to be haunted. You know kids. They cant resist a good prank. While Travis and Corey are dressing up as ghosts and scaring the socks off guests, they awaken a ghost. Actually, more than one ghost. The three ghosts, Caleb, Ira, and Seth are awakened along with their playmates and their murderer. Miss Ada. The history of Fox Hill is so thrilling. Apparently, two people bought the inn and sheltered people. Unfortunately, they were mean. Seth, Ira, and Caleb stole cheese from the owner's quarters and were punished. Miss Ada beat them and left them out in the freezing weather to sleep for the night. Little did she know, the next morning these mischievous little kids were dead. Caleb, Ira, and Seth were ghosts and slept for the next years until, Travis and Corey woke them up AND Miss Ada with their pranks. Just so you know, Miss Ada can still torture the kids while they are ghosts because she hanged herself in the grove next to the inn. Now, Travis and Corey must put an end to what they did by helping the ghosts. Thrilling, exciting, and erratic "All the Lovely Bad Ones" is a great book and i suggest you read it

"Have I told you how hideous you look tonight?" Now that is just a taste of Cardan's personality, like a crumb of bread. And do not fear for this book does not follow the life of Cardan but of Jude, Jude Duarte. Jude has lived in Faerie for a very long time and if you're wondering what type of superpowers she has, well, no, she doesn't have one, she's not even Fae! Is she a troll or a pixie? No, she is a perfectly normal human. Other than the fact that her half sister, Vivienne, is Fae, her guardian killed her parents, she makes her archnemesis aka Cardan the High King of Faerie, wait what? *coughs* Pretend i never said any of this...... ahhh, now I've got you interested huh? Well, to bad, because you have to read the book! Trust me, this book will get you hooked. I recommend this book for ages 11+. Happy Reading!

This is definitely one of my new favorite books. I love all of the main characters, they all have depth and flaws but are still lovable. the plot was never once boring I enjoyed finding out the main characters backstory, and the main story held suspense. This book centers around war in a fantasy world with almost very slight dystopian aspects. I would recommend for fantasy lovers ages 13+.

Again, our time and adventure with Vesper Holly isn't calm, as usual. But what is our reason to be with Vesper Holly again? Holly has the overdue library book...by FEW YEARS by her late father so she and her guardian, Brinnie setting out to go to the Bel-Saaba which is in South Africa. As usual, their trip to South Africa isn't calm as dangers, obstacles, and even people coming in their ways, having to battle their ways out. Our same question over and over again after each book; would Vesper Holly and Brinnie make out alive like they always do? - Happy Reading!

It has been a year since the Artemis Fowl Incident, abduction and ransom of LEP recon officer Holly Short, led by the notorious, brilliant, twelve-year-old Artemis Fowl the second.

Immediatly suspecting Artemis, Holly returns to Fowl Manor to consult and accuse Artemis. But Artemis has his own problems. An e-mail is sent to him from Russia, an e-mail featurng his dying father. He is sure a ransom will be sent soon. Now, for the first time, Artemis and the LEP must work together to prevent the Lower Elements and the human world from colliding, and to save Artemis' father. But these are uncharted waters, with unsuspecting enemies and traitors.

What an amazing way to end the series! But I don't think he should have brought back Opal Kobai for the fourth time! He should have brought in a new bad guy instead. I do think he should make a series about the childhood of one of the other main characters in the book. I would still recommend it for tweens.
