My opinion is that this novel is interesting because it talks about a teenage girl with dyslexia. I think if you like love/romance novel you should get this book.

This is an amazing book that I hope you all get. I particularly enjoyed being able to make homemade gifts. It is good for ages 10 and up. Maltsky did an awesome job at making this book have atmosphere while you are still learning something useful. Although it is not fiction, you will still find yourself not able to put it down. Sticky Fingers is one of the best crafting books out there. So go get some duct tape and start crafting!

A new student review of Where Beauty Lies by Blair Fowler Elle Fowler

Where Beauty Lies is a decent book with a captivating plot. The story kept me entertained until the end. However, the beginning of the book was dragged out and uninteresting. I felt as if many of the details were unnecessary to the context of the story.  Towards the end, there are many twists in the plot which adds suspense and interest. It is also important to point out this book is very unrealistic. However, I would recommend this novel to young teenagers who enjoy being taken to a dream world.

 

A new student review of Paradox by A. J. Paquette

I really liked this book, and I love the depth that A.J. Paquette put into it.  This book was so hard to put down that I read it in one and a half days.It was scary, surprising, and fast-paced.  Ana, the main character, is smart, intelligent, and brave.  Todd, her boyfriend from earth, is friendly, kind, and takes risks.  I liked all the characters, but my favorite is Ana.  I would recommend this book to ages 11 and up because of some bad words and bloodshed.  A.J. Paquette made such a good book that I hope that she will write a book two.  

A new student review of The Iron Traitor by Julie Kagawa

I really enjoyed this book, and I think any other teen who enjoys fantasy would like it as well. In this action packed story, Julie Kagawa tells an engrossing and suspensful tale that kept me on the edge of my seat.

I had not read all the previous books in The Iron Fey series, but it did not affect my enjoyment of the exciting story. The events from the other books were summed up well and concisely in the first few chapters, and you learned more about the characters' past adventures as you read.

The characters were diverse, and while I felt some of their interactions were cliche, they still had some very realistic and complex emotions that I could connect with. Kagawa uses great details in her writing, and I could clearly picture every character and setting.

Though it took me a little time to get into the story, I had lots of fun exploring the mystical lands and intriguing characters I met while reading, and I will definitely be reading more books in the series. 

A new student review of Alpha Goddess by Amalie Howard

The description of the characters is amazing, it feels like if you look up, they’ll be right there.  The setting was pretty good although it could have been a little bit better.  If you are thirsty for action, adventure or just something good to read, this would be a great book for you. I like how it actually includes real Hinduism stories but with a twist. The description of what was actually happening seemed so real, you could have been running or fighting with Sara. I would recommend this book to all action, adventure, and romance (there isn't a ton of romance, but it is present) seekers.

A new student review of Nine Days by Fred Hiatt

This was a great book full of action and adventure! This book starts off kind of slow introducing the main characters and plot, but once Ethan and Tianna decide to go to Hong Kong the action doesn’t stop until the last page.  There is a lot of suspense while the characters travel the world.  This is a great book because it was based on the true story of Tianna’s father.  I would highly recommend Nine Days to anyone who likes an action and adventure story.

This is a pretty adventurous book. What I don't like about this book is that it leaves out all the other characters and makes you wonder where they have gone, what they are doing, and if they are okay.

A new student review of Bullied by Christopher Smith

I really loved this book because it was so much like a real teenager's life. I was sad at the end because Bullied is one of those books that you have to read the next book in the series to find out what happens next, but besides that it was such a great book, and I cannot wait to read more books by the same author!!!
