A new student review of 100 Cupboards by 99 Unknown Email

100 Cupboards is N.D. Wilson's first installment in his new fantasy trilogy. He brings to life many new and different characters and this added to my enjoyment of his book. When you read as much as I do you can see similarities in characters from completely different books. I appreciated the uniqueness of Wilsons characters and enjoyed their adventures. One thing that stood out and was impressive was how I was able to connect, and sometimes even feel like, I was participating in this story.

I would say that this book is the best book I have read in months. I would recommend that any kid that is mature, or the age 11 and up should read this book. It was hilarious and often made me crack up. There was romance; there were scary spots; there were things that I did not expect. Humor, romance, suspense, and a ton more came with this book. I give it 5 stars!

The cast—including Craig and his Bond Girls Naomie Harris and Bérénice Marlohe—sat down at this week's press junket for the film and discussed all things Skyfall, so we've compiled five burning questions whose answers are even hotter.   This is a test.

A new student review of Disneylanders by Kate Abbott

Disneylanders by Bob Mclain and Kate Abbott was an overall good book. Casey, the main character, was very relatable and in no way portrayed as “perfect.” Through this adventure, you’ll laugh and swoon over the romantic moments between Casey and Bert. I think this book would be even better for someone who loves Disneyland, because the author obviously knows a lot about it and incorporates all of its wonders in this book. There were a couple places where the plot moved slowly, and a couple parts seemed unrealistic, but overall it was a great book that I’d defiantly recommend to anyone that’s looking for a light, fun read.

A new student review of Trading Faces by Ann Herrick

This was a great book. It switched perpectives a lot; that was one thing I really liked. This showed how each individual charcter felt. I also liked that two girls who were nothing alike were able to work together to fix a problem they had. Along the way they learned how to help others.This was such a good book because of the way it related to me with everyone trying to fit in and have fun. I believe many people would relate to this and would enjoy this book very much.

A new student review of Homicidal Aliens and Other Disappointments

In my opinion, this was a good book for kids ages 11-15.  It was a little difficult to get into, but once you do, you can't put it down.  I liked how it was semi-humorous, and it had a strong ending.  I dislike books that leave the reader hanging.  Keep in mind that there is some adult language used as well as a tremendous amount of deaths.  This book was okay, but definitely not one of my favorites.  I would read the first book, Alien Invasion and Other Inconveniences before reading this one.

A new student review of Lion

Anjel posted a new student review of Lion . See the full review.


This book is an exciting adventure full of mysteries and action packed cycling adventures. I think people who like fantasy, mystery, and biking adventure would enjoy this book. Just by reading this book I know that I'll be watching for and reading all by this author. If you compared The Lion to any other book, compare it to The Key of Koryna. When I wasn't reading, I was daydreaming about the settings about Chinatown and the Golden Gate Bridge. This book is the second in Out of the Ashes series.

A new student review of reGUARDing GRACE by Karen Leppert

This is one of the few books that many teenagers can relate too.  The setting takes place at what seems like a regular high school, paralleling an everyday school day that contains gossip, drama, teenage angst, and even family problems.  What I really liked about this book is that it made me think.  I noticed that the main characters never fully communicated with each other and told the truth about their thoughts.  Personally, I know I have the same struggle and that just added to the fact that I can relate to the person even more.  Leppert does a fantastic job at creating a book that captivates the attention of its reader beginning on the very first page and ends the story in a way that gives the readers satisfaction.  I recommend this book to teenagers that are in dire need of a good read.
