The Gypsy goodbye

I finished reading "Enola Holmes:The case of the Gypsy goodbye" By Nancy Springer.I liked it alot and I am pretty sure it was the last book in the series.In this case it starts out with Sherlock going to Enola's home "Ferdinand hall",to find a letter left on the doorstep with Gypsy writing on it.He realizes that the letter is meant for Enola becuase there is a christhamsumum with ivy surrounded by it,on the envelope.Enola is in Londen trying to find the missing "Lady Blanchfleur del Campo",who mysteriously goes missing in the underground helping a old lady.Sherlock is also looking for the Lady.The book is filled with mystery and twists and turns that finally end up making Enola closer to her Brothers and finding out what happened to her Mother.

The wide awake princess

I started reading "The wide awake Princess" By E.D Baker Monday,and finished it last night.It was amazing I loved it.The book is about "Annie" a princess whose sister "Gwenie" was cursed to sleep for a hundred years until her true love awakens her.The most beautiful Princess in the world,tuff for "Annie" right.The big problem is that after "Annie" was born a fairy gave her the gift that no magic can affect her which is a gift and a curse becuase when "Princess Gwen" falls asleep along with the whole castle "Annie" is left awake to figure out how to save her Sister.Along with the young palace guard "Liam" "Annie" will go on a amazing journey collecting Princes to kiss her Sister she meets allot of friends and amazing surprises.The whole point to this book is that you don't always need magic to save the day in fact sometimes no magic is allot better.My favorite part of this book was that it always had something interesting going on.

The fire opal

I finished "The fire opal" about a week ago.The book was okay but I hated the ending,well I guess you could call it a ending.The book never said if Francisco came back to Muad or if her Father and Brothers ever came home.There will obviously be a sequel.

Darklight

I finished "Darklight" By lesley Livingston last night.The book was so good I read it late into the night like I do with all my favorite books.The book was about "Kelly" finally reuniting with "Sunny" but everyone keeps messing it up.The bad guy in this book is the Leperchuan that Bob stole the good luck charm from.Anyway not to let all the good stuff out it was a very good book although I hated the ending becuase it completely left me hanging.I cannot wit for the next book to come out.

Beastly

I had started reading "Beastly" By Alex Flinn yesterday.I liked it allot although a "Kiss in time" was allot better but this was good too.In fact I like it soo much that I read it in a day.The book was about Kyle Kingsbury a selfish rude vain teenage boy.When he made a witch at his school mad she changed him into a beast.The only thing I did not like about it was that it never mentioned what happened to silent maiden.

Wondrous strange

I fineshed 'Wondrous Strange" last night.Great book.

Monday, July 26, 2010

Wonderous Strange

I am now reading "Wondrous Strange" By Lesley Livingston.I got this book because the front flap made it sound allot like a series I like "The fairy path" By Frewin Jones.The book was surprisingly not at all like the book,some parts of the book are allot like "The fairy path" but its still very original.The book is about Kelly.A girl who dreams of being a actress.The book is also about Sonny.One of thirteen Junos who protect the secret gate between fairy and the mortal realm.That is all I know right now I am only in chapter eight.So far it is okay.

Anastaisa's secret

I stopped reading "Anastasia's secret" on Friday.I had gotten to a certain chapter in the book where I immediately stopped reading.The book was boring and vulgar.

Thursday, July 1, 2010

Anastasia's secret

The book I am reading now is "Anastasia's secret" By Susanne dunlap.The book is a fictional story about Russia's last Princess.The story is written about why they did not find Anastasia's body among the rest of her family.Before this book was written I was fascinated with Anastasia as a little girl,I even had my own theory of what happened to the grand duchess.Caution to people who are not patient and cannot withstand a long winded book,because it will take a while for it to get interesting.So far tho a very good book.

Saturday, June 19, 2010

The sword of mercy

I am now reading "Peter and the sword of mercy".The fourth to the series "Peter and the starcatchers".The books are a rewritten version of Peter Pan,explaining how Peter Pan was able to fly and be a child forever also how he came to Neverland.The book may seem very childish but it is very good.

The pale assassin

I just finished "she pale assassin".The book was fantastic,but it just ended without telling if "Le Scalpel" succeeded and if they all made it to England.I looked to see if there is going to be a sequel and there is.Ergo I cannot wait to read it.

Wednesday, June 16, 2010

Summer Secrets

I liked Summer Secrets By Kathleen Fuller very much.Summer Secrets is about a girl named Mary Beth.She is thirteen and Amish.The book starts out with her going to a barn she is banned from,so she can get some time for herself and away from her three brothers Johnny,Caleb and Micah.But many surprises come along to what she thought would just be time to write in her journal and draw.Such as sneeking away to her hiding place.Mary Beths worst fear is that someone will find out about her special place and tell her parents.A greater fear comes though when she realizes that someone else is using her hiding place and that person is wanting to keep the barn a secret also.The book Summer Secrets shows to just trust in God and the struggle Mary beth goes through in the decision to tell her parents about all the secrets she is holding inside of her,or to protect all the things she cares about.I got this wonderful book for free from Thomas Nelson.The book Summer Secrets Inspired me to always rely on God.

Days ago I had decided to stop reading "Romeo and Juliet".I did not have the time to read it.So I started reading "Ella enchanted".It is nothing like its movie at all.The charecters are different the settings are different,basicly nothing is the same.For instance Ella can speak several languages in the book,her Father is very mean.There is not even a inkling of the movie and book being alike.But besides that the book is fantasticley written .I adore its tale of a girl just triying to be able to make her own choices.
