Hey world! Well, this is the last blog post of the day. Happy Blogiversary to me, Happy Blogiversary to you, Happy Blogiversary to everyone. This had been a fun day. And you know what? It's not even over yet. We still have the whole rest of this post to look forward to. Well, my computer just crashed. I think that's a little ironic. Luckily, Blogger auto saves! Moving on...
So, for the last book to be reviewed today I read Hacking Harvard by Robin Wasserman, who must have changed the style of her website sometime since I last read something by her. I like this new one, it's nice. Amazon, however, remains the same, though this link is new. There is no audible, which is slightly disappointing. I like audible samples. I much prefer actually reading words on paper, though. *After a brief interlude in which I spoke to people*
Summaryish: Max Kim takes a bet he probably shouldn't have. A now he's dragged his friends neck deep into something they have barely any chance of winning. The goal? To get an unqualified slacker into the prestigious Harvard University. They must prove that the admissions system is flawed in order to get their payoff.
Review: This was one of those books I liked but didn't love. The ending was my favorite part - and, no, not because it ended, because I happened to like the ending. This book had a lot going for it: nicely developed characters, a great story, and maybe even a little message in their somewhere. But there was still something about it that made it drop on my list. Maybe the obvious lack of explosions and aliens. Sometimes it's nice to take a break from science fiction, but I chose my genre for a reason.
Words to the Characters:
Lex: I think you should play soccer. You seem like a soccer player. Or football as the non-Americans call it.
Schwarz: Oh, goodness...
Okay, that was a fabulous blogiversary! Thanks for sharing it with me!

I'm A Pathological Liar. No, Really, It's True...
Hey world! Third post, and I haven't even taken a break yet. Phew. For this introductory paragraph, let's reminisce about my most popular blog posts. There was that time I read Things Fall Apart...Remember when I read The Bronze Bow? And Firestorm, had some good times with that one...And The Future We Left Behind? That was just wow. And The Time Machine? That was the best ever. Oh, good times, fond memories. I could do this all day, but there are books to read and review.
So, remember that Gone series it's been a while since I reviewed anything in? Well, Lies is book three and I'm reviewing it now. It was written by the fabulous Michael Grant, all of whose books I have sworn to read. The Gone books don't have the best trailers, in fact I don't like them much at all, but their Amazon links are top notch.
Summaryish: Starving is no longer a problem for the kids at Perdido Beach. Hunger yes, starving, no. That little difficulty is behind them, just in time to make way for new troubles. Someone who claims to be a prophetess with visions of the outside world we had all forgotten about is convincing people that death is the only way out of the FAYZ. And there are others who claim to have seen the ghost of a boy with a whip arm. And the kids at Coates Academy are still hungry, and tired of it. Lots of stuff in general.
Review: So far, all of these books have been both intense and unforgettable. Reading them is a big commitment because they demand all of your attention and won't let go. Clear you schedule. Lock your door. Ignore fire alarms. Because these books are gooooood. Six Os in the word "good" good, which therefore must be three times better than normal good. These books do progress slowly, which is kind of annoying because you just want to know what happens next, what's going on, you just want to know period. But you have to appreciate the slowness because that's part of the charm, the hook, the beauty. Just sit down, and lose yourself.
About the length:
I wish it were longer. I really wish it were longer.

Hey world! Blog post number two on this blogiversary marathon! Because it's my anniversary, I would like to thank the five countries who give me the most pageviews: The United States, Germany, Russia, Poland, and Turkey! Thanks foreign people, you're the best! Some of you may just be robots, but each pageview is special to me. So far, we have a grand total of 3,507 pageviews! I hope I have so far enriched your reading experience.
So, book two on this marathon is...drumroll...The Tale of Despereaux by Kate DiCamillo, which is not only a book, but a movie as well. I have never seen the movie, and now that I've read the book, I doubt I will, but I'm sure it was great. This is classified officially as a children's book, but I think it's appropriate for all ages. As some people say, one day you'll be old enough to read fairy tales again. Although this isn't much of a "fairy tale" since it has no fairies, but talking mice are close enough. The audible is gorgeous, I love it. Try it for yourself at the Amazon link. I like the way it changes the word "Reader" to "Listener."
Summaryish: One day, an incredibly small, large eared mouse was born with his eyes open. He is, as I'm sure you've deduced, strange. His parents and siblings tried to teach him the ways of mice, but to no avail. He stays odd. And then one day, to top it all off, he falls in love with a human princess! And when something terrible happens to the princess, Despereaux must save her!
Review: This story was adorable! It was short, it probably only took me about three hours in all, but they were fabulous hours full of adventure and fantasy and smiles! It unfolds in such a beautiful back-and-forth way that shows how and why things happen. At times it was humorous, at other times it was tense, but no matter which of those times it was, it was charming. You can't help but root for the little mouse with large ears who dared to stand out. And you can even love the villains a little bit, too. I especially love the writing style, which vaguely resembles Lemony Snicket and made me very happy indeed.
About the Title:
Thank you so very much, Kate DiCamillo, for not doing the obvious and callign this story "The Tail of Despereaux," because although that would be appropriate for many reasons, it is far too cliché and I would have avoided this book as a matter of principle.

Cue Delilah's Little Song...
Hey world! So you probably think it's been a while, huh? Actually, it hasn't. Because this time, the wait was intentional. And why did I wait until I had four books to review in one day, you may be asking. Because - wait for it - It's my blogiversary! WOOOO CLAPS AND HUZZAHS! 2 years today, my fellow book gluttons. And this makes 237 posts. By the end of the day, we'll have 240. That's a lot of books! Settle in, because we're having four back-to-back blog posts starting...now.
So, a long time ago, but not that long because it was in purpose this time, I read a book called One Realm Beyond by Donita K. Paul. It is book one in the Realm Walkers series that only has a sequel so far. The Amazon link is gorgeous, but the audible could be better. It sounds a little bit too perky, as if the speaker is talking to a young person. But I am surprised that I pronounced all the names correctly.
Summaryish: This book is all about Cantor D'Ahma, a young Realm Walker - a person who can see the portals to travel between realms - has finally received his first mission. He must travel to a different realm to find a dragon to become his constant. But he , along with two other young realm walkers, is dragged into a much bigger problem involving conspiracies that run so deep they make your ears pop, evil kings, and something I probably shouldn't tell you about.
Review: I got this book and I was really excited about it! But I also knew that I had to make it last because the library would be unavailable to me for a while. It turned out not to be a problem at all! I enjoyed going slow through this book, because ending it seemed like a terrible idea. And while the book is more event-driven than plot-driven, it's still a fantastic read. I'm happy that I own it, because I feel like I could read it three or four more times (not in a row of course) before I don't get completely sucked into the nicely paced story. My only complaint is that the characters could stand to be just a touch more defined. Each character seems to stick to only one or two adjectives.
About the Cover:
It's really super pretty. I was not present when the book was purchased, but I was phone-coaching the purchaser while staring at the results of the Google images page. The colors are what really drew me to it, but add the castle, the dragon, and the mysteriously cloaked figure and I could possibly say no it!!

My Shadow and I Have No Secrets.
Hey world! Finally! It's tea time! I've been looking forward to drinking this beautiful tasting Bengal Spice all day long! Now I just have to wait for it to cool...but I can smell it! And in the meantime I can eat yogurt covered apples and finish up this introduction with a smile: :)
So, recently, because, yeah, we're up to recently now, I read this book called Hunter Brown and the Secret of the Shadow. This is book one in the Codebearer trilogy by the Miller Brothers -- ooo, these apples are sour -- whose names I believe are Christopher and Allan, but I might be wrong. Checking...Okay, not wrong. There's not an audible on the other side of this Amazon link, but that doesn't mean we love it any less. Or more for that matter.
Summaryish: When his end of the year prank goes wrong, Hunter Brown finds himself in possession of a strange and magical book that has the power to whisk him away to Solandria, a realm full of dangerous creatures and an even more dangerous Shadow. (This tea is sooo good.) Then there's a prophecy, and...Gosh, guys, I have summarized so much today. Do you really need to know what it's about?
Review: So this was a good story with excellent twists and turns and even a few surprises thrown in. The sad part is that I didn't quite enjoy the way it was written. It felt kind of slow and a super simple. It was a skin and bones book when I prefer meat. The description was placed wonderfully though. I have noticed that some books just don't know where to put the exposition. The Miller Brothers do, though, so that's a plus in their direction. I'll read the rest of the series if the books show up in my life, but I wouldn't actively seek it out. I'm not particularly burning for the next book in the series.
About the Cover:
Just look at it. It's creepy. And not in the horror-novel kind of way that's kind of inviting. In the clown kind of way. You know, the creepy no one likes?
Phew! What a day!

There's An App For That.
Hey world! I am back for round three! Exciting things are happening. Maybe today will be another personal blog record! That reminds me - my blogversary is coming up soon. Oh, fun times. I'll be sure to read a big book for that. Anyways. I feel like as the day goes on, my introductory paragraphs are getting smaller and smaller...
So, recently but not too recently I read this book called Sarah's Key by Tatiana de Rosnay. Warning - this website is half in French because Mme de Rosnay happens to be Franglaisrusse. I think that is the correct portmanteau. Ah! All this talk about French makes me want to speak it! Cette roman n'est pas un séries, mais il est le premier roman d'anglaise de Mme de Rosnay. (This novel is not a series, but it is Mme de Rosnay's first English novel.) Oh, the beautiful squiggly red lines of spellcheck! Amazon link? Pretty okay audible.
Summaryish: We all know what happened during World War II - tragedies people would rather not talk about. But when American in France journalist Julia is assigned to report on the Vel d'Hiv, she is forced to dig up facts best left alone. And as she does, she discovers a secret about her family, and how closely she is involved with the life of one of the victims. She begins a quest, like all protagonists usually do, and discovers things about herself.
Review: So, it's not my favorite book, but I didn't hate it either. I more than didn't hate it - I liked it even. But love is not the adjective I would apply to the book. It had a nice story line, and the way it progressed kind of slowly was a little refreshing after all of the fast paced books that I normally read. It was a nice break, but I don't think I'll make a habit of reading Mme Rosnay's books. I did like it enough to pick up one of her books if I ever see one in the library though! Just so you know, this is a good review.
Words to the Characters:
Sarah: Probably not the best idea you've ever had, but I see the reasoning.
Bertrand: Mrrf.
Okay, see you in a few.

I'm Sorry, What Was That?
Hey world! Second post of today. Woo! I'm on a roll! Well, not really since I just took an hour break to eat lunch and ask Siri random questions. I just almost fell out of my chair. Not fun. But I caught myself, so all is well.
So, I have officially read a book called Task Force by Brian Falkner (I pressed the button. A lot). It is book two of the Recon Team Angel series. I have reviewed book one sometime in the past, so if you want to search for that one, there's a search bar somewhere at the top of this page. I don't know where exactly; I don't really visit my own blog since I've already read all the books I review. Plus, my visits wouldn't count as pageviews anyway. Moving on, with the Amazon link.
Summaryish: So, aliens invaded, blah blah blah, and they're small aliens so the military asked kids to undergo training and eventually surgery to both look and act like the aliens for infiltration purposes. Mission Two for Recon Team Angel is possibly the most important so far - because they are facilitating a direct assault against the buzzing aliens. Oh, the drama! Will they succeed, will they fail? Will they die trying?
Review: Eh. I did read book one, and you may remember that I didn't like it much. I only picked this book up because I needed another book; my book bag was off balance and running into my knees. This short book really helped keep it away from my legs because all of a sudden it was too heavy and I had to carry it over my shoulder. And that's pretty much where my good standings with this book ended. I didn't really care about the story - mostly because it was written in such a boring way! It's just so tune-out-able that almost every single moment of reading this book was spent while thinking about something else. But that just means this book isn't for me, you can certainly try it out if you want. But I don't recommend it.

Sorry, I didn't bother keeping your personalities straight in my head.

Danger Is HER Middle Name.
Hey world! Wow. It has been such a long time! I don't know what happened, but it's been over two weeks since I blogged last. Rest assured, I did not forget about you. You may or may not have noticed that it is not tea time. There's a reason for that. Instead of having a marathon (I'll be busy for the next few days) I'm going to be blogging four times today! What does that make this? A blitz? I think it's a blitz. Four books behind, four posts going to happen today starting now!
So, a pretty long while ago I finished this book called Dangerous by Shannon Hale. Looking at her website now, it's obvious that Mrs. Hale ventured out of her chosen genre for this one! It seems that she writes middle-grade novels about princesses and then some adult fiction. Kudos for bravery, Shannon. As far as I know, this is not a series, simply a lonely little standalone that nudges it's book-siblings and says, very tentatively, "Hey, can I sit here?" And its book-siblings are like,"If you must, Dangerous, but if the Grimm Brothers come over here, you're not with us." And then Dangerous sighs, but is also happy they're letting it sit down, and then somebody comes over and says, "Hey, we're selecting you for the Junior's Guild Selection." And then its book-siblings are like. "Yeah, that's our book sibling!" Amazon link, anyone?
Summaryish: Maisie Danger Brown is a one-armed, homeschooled, half-Paraguayan science geek who wants to become an astronaut. Consequently, she signs up to go to an astronaut camp where she uncovers a conspiracy that could very well lead to the annihilation of Earth. Now, she and four other teens are the only thing standing between destruction. Not the best scenario in the world, but the only one they can have any hope in at all.
Review: Oh my snap. This book was a fabulous adventure that I didn't want to put down for one second. I seriously contemplated skipping a meal for this book. Being physically away from this book was possible, but it never left my mind. It's one of those books that if someone comes in the room to tell you something, you shoo them away. You yell and scream at them to not interrupt under any circumstances. But, a little warning, it's probably not for everybody. It's heavy on the science fiction. But another great thing is that there's NO swearing! Woo!
About The Title:
When I originally saw this book, I looked at it and almost scoffed. I mean, what kind of a title is Dangerous? It seems like it's trying way too hard to the point where it's almost cheesy. I still don't especially like the title even after reading the book and figuring out why it's called Dangerous in the first place. Danger in a science fiction book should be understood, like the understood subject in an imperative sentence. I'm thinking I'd like to see a title more a long the lines of "Tokens" or something.
Okay, see you later today.
