| This is the second book about Peter and what happened to him before he met Wendy. It was very enjoyable, very well-written, and followed very much in the style and story type of the first book. If you liked the first one, you'll like this one.
A strange group of pirates lands on Mollusk island looking for the chest of starstuff that Peter and Molly had brought there. Of course, we know the starstuff has been returned to London. The pirates quickly find out and head off to London. Peter ... Read More: |

| This is a fun tale featuring a young mountain girl, Miri, forced to undergo Princess training as a potential bride to the prince. The only thing I didn't like about the book was the title, everything else was great. The characters were all complex and believable and the pacing was first rate. I couldn't put the book down and was sad when it ended. |

| VERY DISAPPOINTING SEQUEL: This book regurgitates too much of the 1st book. Worth reading? Maybe! But borrow it from a library. You will be happy to return it & not have paid to purchase it. |

| The story started off quite engagingly, though I thought I'd discovered the secret right away (chapter 4!). It turns out I'd only discovered a small secret and the big one was still to come! There's also an element of reality (yes, in a fantasy book!) that struck me. Not everyone is perfectly redeemed, people don't always do the smart thing (but they also aren't made extremely stupid just to advance the plot). Sure, some of the characters are quirky, some are kinder than you'd expect, and there are certainly plot ... Read More: |

| Midnight For Charlie Bone is full of fantasy and wonder! Charlie Bone finds out he can hear people talking in photographs. Turns out, to his disappointment, he has to go to special boarding school for children with magical talent. Charlie Bone is left with a strange briefcase from a bookshop that won't open. Will he ever find out what is in the case?
I love this book because you can never tell what's going to happen next. I think Jenny Nimmo did a great job writing this book. If you're curious and want to know what ... Read More: |

| From the moment I opened this book, I could not put it down. When I had to drive, I looked at the book longingly as it sat in my passenger seat. The writing style in the book is superb, grabbing and holding my attention. The author's prose simply is beautiful.
The main character and the story is unique for a ghost story, bringing in enough familiar elements for a teen novel, but still creating an overall unique experience. The story is told in first person, and the audience gets to follow Helen ... Read More: |

| The Artemis Fowl adventures are clever, easy reads.
The stories are fun, the characters engaging. There is lots of magic and adventure. This book is pretty similar to the others in the series. It would be helpful to read some of the earlier books first. |

| Stink and the Incredible Shrinking Kid is about a boy that keeps shrinking and he's making comics about it. His sister Judy measures him every morning and that's when he finds out that he's shrinking. If you like Judy Moody books, you will like Stink. If you like fiction, this will be a good book for you. |

| First, let me re-acknowledge that Maguire is not for everyone. This book continues that trend.
The overall concept sounds fairly airy and fun but at its heart, it's a lot darker than you might imagine. There are two story threads going on throughout the novel and each one is very intriguing. The threads sometimes intertwine and even when they don't directly touch, you find yourself wondering about the balance between the two. The story arc of the fairy creatures is highly imaginative and really a lot ... Read More: |
