The storytellers Daughter
The book "The storytellers Daughter" By Cameron Dokey is a fantastic book.The book begins with the tale of how "King Sharayar" sent his Brother "King Shazaman" to come visit him.But the night when his Brother went to leave he found out that his wife planned to kill him,so he killed her and left his part of the country to Shayrayar's.When Shazaman was there he found out that he was not the only one who could be deceived for his Brothers wife planned to kill him too.The plan was foiled but Shayar was so upset about it that he went crazy and made a proclamation that he will take a wife for one night and kill her the next morning so she cannot take advantage of him.Sharazad is the great storytellers daughter and knows that she is the only one who can stop him from taking many girls lives.This book was really good although the ending wasn't as interesting as it could have been.

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.
