The Secret Lake: A children's mystery adventure

The Secret Lake: A children's mystery adventure

By Karen Inglis

*Spoiler This book was mediocre. First of all, the beginning of the story was confusing. There were too many things going on and it was hard to follow. The plot was interesting overall and I liked the characters and their personalities. For example, Jack's british accent made it fun to read aloud. One thing though is that, as the story continued, lot of things that happened were predictable like when they found out that Charlie Green was Jack's son. For these reasons I give this book 3 stars.

Midsummer Night's Dream

Midsummer Night's Dream

By Tom Robinson

So this book was really hard to understand at first. Not only was it a play, but is it also a story. There are four main characters, Lysander who is in love with Hermia. Hermia who is in love with Lysander. Demetrius, who is in love with Hermia as well. And then poor Helena, who is in love with Demetrius. As the young lovers, Hermia and Lysander flee from their homes to go and marry somewhere else, so that Hermia's father cannot object, Helena finds out, but promises not to tell anyone. Then, after the two lovers have left, Helena goes to Demetrius and tells him about their plan. She hoped that he would be upset and marry her instead, but it doesn't work out that way. Instead he chases after the couple into the forest. The rest? You'll have to find that out for yourself.

Death Note, Vol. 6

Death Note, Vol. 6

By Tsugumi Ohba, Takeshi Obata

I recommend this manga to anime lovers that like a little crime solving. Light Yagami, the main character can get you lost in his own 'perfect world' that he plains on creating with the death note he was gifted with by a shinagami. A crime solving manga with its own twists and I its way to make its readers and watchers cry.

Absolutely Normal Chaos

Absolutely Normal Chaos

By Sharon Creech

Rain

I am in 6th grade, and I read this in my free time. It isn't a hugely popular book, but I absolutely LOVE it! It has just the right amount of just about every emotion, and it is funny and sad in just the right places. I really enjoyed reading it, and it is now one of my all time favorites. I tried to read it in 1st grade, but it didn't interest me then. I think any girl (or maybe even boy, I'm not sure) 4th grade age or above will greatly enjoy this book. Like I said, it isn't totally popular, and I never would have heard of it if it weren't for my aunt. She was best friends with Sharon Creech's daughter. I only know one other book by Sharon Creech, and I haven't read it . . . yet. It's called Walk Two Moons, and I'm sure it will be just as good as Absolutely Normal Chaos.

This is a book in the baby sitters club series written by Ann M. Martin. In this book Claudia starts to notice some weird things while she is baby sitting two boys, Joey and Nathan. She thinks that Nathan and Joey's dad might be abusing them, but she isn't sure and doesn't want to step in where she doesn't belong. Read the book to find out what Claudia does. I gave this book 5 stars because it was really good and definitely one of the stronger baby sitters club books.

The Shadow Thieves (The Cronus Chronicles)

The Shadow Thieves (The Cronus Chronicles)

By Anne Ursu

This is a great book with a modern take on Greek mythology. Overall, it had strong characters and a strong, if not chaotic plotline. Comparable with Percy Jackson and the Olympians. (It's an especially good book during a long, somewhat painful Jewish holiday in which ALL of your mom's half of the family crams into your grandmother's house for three straight days and you literally have nothing to do. Oy vey.)
