Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith

By: Ryder Windham

I love Star Wars. I learned that Utapau came before Tatooine, Frank Oz plays Yoda, and Jango Fell played Commander Cody 2. The pictures were from the actual movie and I liked that. It has everyone from Star Wars.

Keeping Secrets

By: Beth Beechwood

Because I finished it and I really liked it.

Bartimaeus Trilogy: The Amulet of Samarkand

By: Jonathon Stroud

This book was highly enjoyable. It presents the reader with a witty narrator and puts many a spin on stereotypical fictional lore. The author's ability to develop a very complex plot with complex character interaction and still add a great deal of suspense has a huge affect on the attention of the reader, taking their minds on a trip through a completely different London from what we see today.

Pendragon: The Merchant of Death

By: D.J. MacHale

When Bobby Pendragon kisses with Courtney Chetwynde, he thinks his life can't get better. Then, his Uncle Press says, "I need your help." His life is never normal again. Warping into various other worlds, Bobby realizes that it's up to him to stop an evil demon named Saint Dane, and to save a world heading into Armaggeddon. This book is the first of 10, and is incredibly original. It is wonderfully and creatively written, with a very intriguing plot. Definitely a must-read.

A Series of Unfortunate Events #11: Grim Grotto

By: Lemony Snicket

I feel this way because the book has a great plot. Also because you never know what's going on in anyone's lives other than the Baudelaires, and sometimes, Count Olaf. This is a really good book, but you have to read the other 10 books before it. There are 13 books in the series. That is my book review.

Eragon

By: Christopher Paolini

Dragons are one of my favorite animals. They are so cool and Saphira was totally awesome. The Shade was the best though. All of his magic made winning the war hard, but Eragon and the warden won in the end. Good vs. evil is typical, but in this case typical is not in the dictionary. Everything from Urgals to the Shade and his dragon to Brom sacrificing himself to the flame. In the end the story is awesome and worth reading at least twice. I highly recommend Eragon to a reader ready for adventure!

Eragon

By:Christopher Paolini

I went to see Eragon. I liked the movie a lot. It was fantastic. The magic was amazing. My favorite part was when Eragon fought the Shade because they were flying through the air. My favorite character was Eragon because he could call Saphira, the dragon, and ride her anywhere. My favorite spell was the bow and arrow spell. They did an amazing job on the effects for the movie, especially the magic.

Eragon

By: Christopher Paolini

This book was so exciting. It leads from one adventure to another. I couldn't put it down! If you're looking for a bit of magic in your reading you should read Eragon. I like books that have dragons or wars when they used swords and shields. That is why I picked Eragon.

Nancy Drew Mystery: The Secret of Shadow Ranch

By: Carolyn Keene

I felt this way because in the middle of the story there's too much scary things happening. But the author did a good job describing the characters and feelings. I really liked the dance where practically all the main characters come together. But in the end it's a little scary. I think this book was good, but not great for me.

Thirteen Little Blue Envelopes

By: Maureen Johnson

Because it took you lots of places and it was very descriptive. It really made you feel like you were really there. It was really fascinating and I didn't want to put it down. I loved it.

Wolf Brother

By: Michelle Paver

Because I love adventure books and historical books and Wolf Brother was both.

Ivy & Bean and the Ghost that Had to Go

By: Annie Barrows

Because there is no such thing as a ghost. Also because Annie Barrows is a good writer.

-Emma, 7

The House Next Door

By: Richie Tankersley Cusick

I feel this way...Emma discovers a creepie old house right next door to hers. Emma fmds out that there was a girl that used to live in the house and that that girl was almost the same as her. I love these kind of mystery books because they are like stories of history that wasn't really there.

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets

By: J.K. Rowling

I felt this way because I could relate to the characters' feelings and emotions. I love the adventure and scary sort of sense. I could not stop reading this book because I loved it so much! Now after reading this book I feel like Harry is sort of a friend to me. I love the way J.K. Rowling makes me feel like I could be in the characters' shoes and do exactly what they did and said.

Junie B. Jones

By: Barbara Park

It is funny and I like to be funny so I read Junie B. Jones. It is so funny because she does not pronounce her English correctly and she thinks she's the best and she's not even close to being the best.

Junie B. First Grader: Toothless Wonder

By: Barbara Park

Junie B. was acting silly when she had a loose tooth.

Hannah's Secret

By: Carolyn Keene

Because I learned about circumstantial evidence. And that was something I needed to talk to my friend about on this case. But not the library case.

The Littles Have a Wedding

By: John Peterson

In this book a little got married. Dinky Little and Della Kett get married and it takes an adventure to get to the house where they are getting married because they are small people. I love marriage books because there's always a happy ending.
