This Greek saga of many heroes known throughout Greek text, includes many amazing explanations of Greek mythological beliefs and characters which many stories have been read throughout the world. Percy Jackson, a boy who was included in another series, narrates and tells his explanations of Greek phenomenon. This is a great book if you enjoy learning about other cultural beliefs and enjoy books containing fantastical creatures and unbelievable experiences.
Personally, the best part of this book is the story of a hero who faces hardship due to anger from a god. Although saved, she betrays her savior, and once realizing what she has done, she works as hard as she can to apologize. In my opinion, my least favorite part of the book is the nerve racking situations and bad decisions that some heroes make leading to their fall of turn to evil.

When he’s in the plane the pilot gets a heart attack when they are still in the air. Then his plane crashes on an L shaped island. How will he survive on this island?
Review: I liked that we get to see him struggle trying to get what he wants. If you’re at home you can go buy the fruits and vegetables but he has to do this alone finding it in the wild not just buying it. It also tells us about what kind of pains he goes through.
It is about a God named Apollo that has been punished by Zeus and his punishment is to become mortal. He finds friends that help him try to get his godly powers back but on his way he finds a lot of obstacles and the book is about his journey to the oracle.

Shall they find the murderer or shall they all die in the end? Are their deaths related to a poem? Find out in “And Then There Were None” by Agatha Christie.
Review-if you like murder and crime books this book is for you! I really did love this book. It is a thrilling, eye-catching, addictive book. It has everything you need for a murder book. The book is full of twists and turns non-stop until the end. It is easy to understand but hard to crack the code on who is the murderer. If you haven’t figured it out by the end of the book there are 2 summaries explaining everything on how what happened. I definitely recommend this book to you if you like gory.

Review: Holes is a very good book. Although it did lose me in some parts I still loved it. 9/10
This is one of my favorite books because it has many stories. There are so many different varieties of stories written for kids. They were based on original plays from William Shakespeare. There are intro pages for each story that tell you a little bit about the characters in those short stories. Some of these are “Romeo and Juliet,” “The Tempest,” and “The Comedy of Errors” to name a few. My favorite story from this book is probably “Twelfth Night. I definitely would recommend this book and give it five stars.
Friendship List Series Book #1-#4: 11 Before 12, 12 Before 13, 13 and ¾, 13 and Counting
I recommend this book for girls the age of 11 or 12. Most people will only enjoy this book if they like real life situations and drama in a way. Two girls set out with a bucket list that they must complete before each birthday or event. If you love comedy, drama, and fun then you’ll enjoy the Friendship List series by Lisa Greenwald.
It is a story of a girl who did not realize how peaceful her life really was until her family was forced to leave their home by sea and join other Japanese Americans in a prison camp in the California desert. I like it because it keeps me interested and intrigued.
