A new student review of Stained

Personally, I couldn't believe how much this book really dragged me into it. When I first got the book, I thought I wasn't going to like it, and that I wouldn't be able to finish the book, but when I actually started to read the book, I wasn't able to put it down even for a second. I would suggest this book to anyone, it truly is a riveting book that draws you in and won't let you go.

A new student review of Gated

Gated is an excellent read which follows the true story of the Jonestown Massacre. This book keeps your interest and your heart. Parker does a fantastic job of telling you about Lyla’s life thick in lies and catches your heart as she tries to escape alive. Leaving room for a sequel, I would recommend this book to any avid reader.

A new student review of Alice Parker's Metamorphosis - Book 1 of the new adventure series for children

Overall, the book is good, but I would only recommend it to patient readers. In the beginning the book is slow and quite uninteresting. However it picks up its pace towards the middle and end of the story. Again, if you are patient enough, read it, the book gets fantastic. But for those readers who like books that start out strong, this book is not for you.

I strongly suggest this book because it is an exciting book with lots of twists and turns.  Since this is book one of this series the first little bit of this book has a lot of explaining and no action.  You have to be able to stick through it because the end is super good, exciting and full of adventure.

This story is very well crafted and well written. This book falls into the adventure fantasy type. Again I strongly recommend this book.

A new student review of The Black Stone Prophecy (Volume 1) by Alex Baj

I love this book because it keeps you suspended between two things. What will they do to get back to Earth? Also, will they choose to save this planet at the same time? It's cool because they are just kids but they have this huge responsibility accidentally put on them. It teaches kids to listen to their gut (so they do what is right).

A new student review of His Dark Ways

kanati posted a new student review of His Dark Ways . See the full review.

His Dark Ways by Naomi Canale is a sensational supernatural thriller with an abundance of exciting plot twists. Canale's eloquent writing style clashes beautifully with its dark subject matter to create an enthralling masterpiece. The contrast between Savanna and Daniel's thoughts throughout the book helped bring out the traits that made them so endearing and realistic as characters. The only thing I would have changed was the ending because it stops on a suspenseful note that could be a starting place for a sequel or simply a tortuous cliff-hanger that will never be resolved. This book is great for any teenage girl who loves a good supernatural thriller and I would definitely recommend it.

A new student review of Once Upon A Road Trip

GSracegirl posted a new student review of Once Upon A Road Trip . See the full review.

Once Upon a Road Trip by Anglia N. Blount is an adventure filled book about a girl who drives across the country and back alone.  I thought that this book was very well written.  Once Upon a Road Trip is a book that is suitable for middle school students.  I would recommend this book to a friend. This book covered every topic I enjoy, romance, adventure, and self-struggle.  Once Upon a Road Trip has some parts where not much is going on and they seem stretched out, but over all I would read it again

A new student review of Calixte: A Novel by Rosella Eleanor LaFevre

detectiveginger posted a new student review of Calixte: A Novel by Rosella Eleanor LaFevre. See the full review.

The setting was vividly decribed, it allowed the reader to totally immerse themselves into the world of Calixte. The voice of the book was very superficial and stereotypical of a teenager, it gave a very authentic feel to the narration of the story. The characters in the book are at times unrealistic and dislikeable, while this may have been deliberate characterisation, it seems as if the characters needed more depth, more relateability. However, this book is a good start for the aspiring author.

A new student review of Morlanos (The Chronicles of Guiamo Durmius Stolo)

Crazyman5 posted a new student review of Morlanos (The Chronicles of Guiamo Durmius Stolo) . See the full review.

I thought Morlanos was a poorly written book.  It didn't make much sense, and the numerous characters just confused me. It doesn't seem to express any kind of idea or theme, and the setting is not very well explained.  The use of made up words detracts from the book's message, ecspecially without an explanation to their meaning. It seemed to jump from idea to idea and overall, the book was confusing and didn't seem to have a real plot line.

A new student review of Through the Zombie Glass by Gena Showalter

I enjoyed this book very much and am looking forward to more. I absolutely loved Ali. She is strong, determined, and protects the one she loves. Her relationship with her Grandma is so beautiful, and they can always be cheerful aroud each other even with all the craziness.; however, I feel disappointed with Ali and Cole's relationship. I feel like they were speeding things too quickly and are too worryied about the visions. They've only known each other a few months and get mad so easily.  Besides that, the book is perfect with plenty of action, romance, and humor. I laughed out loud throughout the whole book, and I know you will too.
