Nerd Camp is one of the best books I have ever read because when you turn a page, something new happens. If I was able to edit the book, I would change nothing because it is such a good book. If I was the Gabe (one of the main characters), I would have just left the problem alone because I am not as clever as Gabe with the problem with Zack (Gabe’s step brother). I would describe the book as perfect, because, well, the book is perfect. I love Nerd Camp and I hope you will to, if you buy the book of course.

The people of Sparks is about people coming to the surface from a dying city that was underground, called Ember. The Emberiets found a village above ground called Sparks. I liked this book a lot because it is full of war strategies and the book wants you to keep turning the pages. If I was the author, I wouldn’t change anything because everything fits in place where it is supposed to be. If I was the main character, I would try to negotiate with the Sparks to let the Emberiets stay forever. The one word I would describe this book would be executed chose the word executed because lots of battle strategies are executed. Instead of playing video games after reading this review, go check or buy The People of Sparks!

Attack Of The Fluffy Bunnies is a book of adventure.  If you enjoy reading about adventures, this is the right book for you. There are 3 evil bunnies that are trying to take over camp that  two twins that go to. The twins and Nelson stopped them and made the bunnies  shrink. If I was the author, I would not change anything. If I was a character I would not change how they solved it. The word to describe this book is Adventures because it has adventure. If you enjoy reading adventure, read Attack of the Fluffy Bunnies now!

At the beginning of Nerd camp 2.0, in New York City, Gabe is excited that he is going to summer camp again at the Summer Center for Gifted Enrichment. Zack is also going to a summer camp for the first time. Then the worst thing happens, there is a forest fire near the camps.  I loved the book because the camps were fighting back and forth. If I could change something, I would choose to change the forest fire to a tornado. If I were a character in the book, I would solve the problem. If I could choose one word to describe the book, it would be stupendous because the book keeps on having awesome fights. Go read Nerd Camp 2.0!

 If you like books were people get in danger I think this is a good book for you. In the beginning of the book, they crash in Alaska. Titus, Jill, Web, Paul, and Mr. E build a tent with tarp on top of it and find enough food to survive while in Alaska. They named it Camp Lollipop because Suryadi, Mr. E, Titus, Web, Paul, and Jill got to have lollipops. Titus found a crossbow in the plane and told everyone. Everyone was hoping for a knife because they thought it would be more useful. Everyone argued about sleeping in the plane overnight because they thought it would was safe from bears but dangerous because the plane could sink. In the middle of the book, my favorite character dies. His name was Suryadi. Jill

caught some fish while Web chopped the head of and gave it Buford the dog. While Jill was watching over night, a bear came. Everyone backed up and let the bear go away. Mr. E made markings on a tree for how many days they had survived in Alaska. A plane flew over head and everyone tried to get its attention but the plane did not see them. Titus and Web set out to find help and keep going to follow the river.In the end of the book, Mr. E, Jill, and Paul get saved. Titus and web can’t go any farther because they are to weak. Web tries to swim and he dies. Titus tries to swim and he makes it Titus tries making a fire, but his fingers can not move and while he was trying to do it a helicopter saves him. While Titus gets saved, Buford was at the vet and everyone who survived had a happy life.

If you like interesting and mystery books, Tales from a Not-So-Talented Pop Star is the book for you. In the beginning of the book,there were a lot of bugs at Nikki Maxwell’s school but the problem is her dad is the school exterminator and she does not want him to come to her school. The only reason she goes to her school is because she got a scholarship when her dad became the school exterminator. Nikki tells the principal that her father is too busy and can’t come to exterminate, so she loses her scholarship. Read the book to see if she gets her scholarship back. I loved this book because I love reading  interesting books and this book is definitely interesting. Every time I picked the book up I could never stop reading. If I was the author, I would not change anything because the book is already amazing and there is nothing for you to fix. If I was Nikki, I would just tell my parents if I lost  my scholarship because if they found out I lost the scholarship they would be mad I did not tell them. If I could pick one juicy word, it would be fascinating because the story is really fascinating and  definitely a good book to read. So, make sure to read Tales from a Not-So-Talented Pop Star once you start reading you will never want to stop, trust me. So, make sure after you finish reading this post, go to your local library, school library if you go to school, or click the amazon link above.

If you are reading this then the name Spy Camp caught your eye but before you read this, read the first book Spy School before your read the rest of this review I have. In the beginning of the story Ben goes to Spy Camp. Then receives a letter from SPYDER,  the enemy organization, asking him to join. So the CSI decides to hide him in the wild. Instead, the plan stops when SPYDER finds the bus Ben is on. Want to know more READ THE BOOK. My favorite part of the book is when they dive of the bridge in to the river. If I was the author I would not change a single thing about the book because the plot is perfect. If I could choose one word to describe this book it would be ACTION because the action in this book never stops. If I was Ben I would have done every thing the same way he did it because I can’t think of another or better way to solve this problem. I absolutely loved this book but to love this book you NEED to read the first book. If you liked this review get the book from the amazon link and leave a comment! I will also leave a link to Spy School.

Chomp is about a boy named Wahoo Cray and his Dad, Mickey Cray. The Cray’s backyard is a zoo, literally, they have alligators, snakes, raccoon , monkeys and a lot more types of wild animals. I loved this book because it was filled with adventure and problem solving and that makes a great story. If I were the author I wouldn’t change anything about the story because it all made sense to me. If I were Wahoo I would solve the problem by doing the same thing Wahoo did because I thought it was the smartest way. A really juicy word to describe the book would be adventuresome because it really represents the story well. I would really recommend Chomp to you and that is why I gave you the amazon link. Just in case you are not so sure you want to get it, amazon lets you read a couple pages of it. And if you do read it, I hope you enjoy it!!

The Duel in the Desert is a mysterious book that makes you want took keep on turning the pages. It is a book about a quest that Neil and Larry have to search for a gold mine... I loved the book more than any other book in the series because the mysteries take longer to solve. I wouldn’t change anything because the book is perfect the way it is. I would have solved the problem just like Neil and Larry because I am a good problem solver. A word that describes this book is mysterious because you never know what will happen next. If you love mysteries the Neil Flambé series is the Perfect series for you.

If you want to read a great book with plenty of mystery, adventure, and of course plenty of delicious food about a chef/detective then read Neil Flambé and the Bard’s Banquet. I loved the book because I love a great mystery with adventure, and I just had to keep turning the pages. If I was the author, I would not change a thing because I could not think of a better way to connect all the clues to solve the problem. If I was a character in the book, I would have solved the problem the same way they did because each clue leads to another, and there would have been no other way to solve the problem. One descriptive word to describe this book is a mystery because you always try to guess what’s going to happen next. If you want to read the best mystery ever, and have your mouth water, read Neil Flambé and the Bard’s Banquet!

Find out in Cryptid Hunters!!! I liked the book because it is thrilling and I couldn’t stop reading until the end. I wouldn’t change a thing about the book because it is SO good and there isn’t anything to fix.

              Do you want to read a marvelous story that you will remember for the rest of you life? If you do, then I have  the perfect book for you: The City of Ember. This story is about Doon and Lina trying to desperately to decode the instructions (if I told you what the instructions where for, I could have spoiled the book). I really enjoyed it and I think you would like it also. If I where the author. I would make in the year 2000 over the year 247. If I where Lina Mayfleet or Doon Harrow, I would have stopped Poppy from tearing the instructions to shreds. (that would have saved a lot of time). This book is just too amazing for me and I hope you can read the book. If I had to choose one word to describe this story it would be instructions. The top link is only for this book and the bottom link is for the series. If you want to read an exiting story I think you found the perfect book for you, The City of Ember.

If you like books with comedy, mystery, and excitement,  read: This Journal Belongs to Ratchet. It is about about a girl named Ratchet who just wants to be a normal eleven year old girl. Ratchet’s life is the opposite of normal. She is home schooled by her dad who spends most of his time in the garage fixing cars, her mom died when she was little, her dad has no sense of style and gets her clothes at Goodwill and Salvation Army, and her dad is all about saving the environment. Ratchet’s dad is trying to save Moss Tree Park from being turned into a strip mall. A problem in this book is that Ratchet doesn’t really know much about her mother. All she knows is that she died when she was little; but will Ratchet find out more about her mother and her past…… I loved this book because every time you turn the page it just keeps getting more and more exciting. I would not change a word in this book because it is so well written. One juicy word I would use to describe this book is CAPTIVATING because it kept my interest through the whole book. I reccomend  this book to ages 8 and up. Read This Journal Belongs to Ratchet and you will never want to stop reading.

“Tales From A Not-So-Popular Party Girl” is a FABULOUS book about a girl named Nikki Maxwell who is starting middle school. Nikki has three friends Chloe, Zoey, and her crush Brandon, plus the popular girl Mackenzie Hollister, who is ruining her life.  I loved the book because it was really dramatic and funny to read. If I  could change anything about the book, I would not make Nikki wear the rat costume because it made the book a little confusing because Nikki had to keep on changing her costumes. If I was Nikki, I would just tell Brandon, Chloe, and Zoey the truth so I wouldn’t have to go through all the trouble of changing her costumes  all the time.  One juicy word to describe the book would be dramatic, but a good dramatic. I really recommend “Tales From A Not-So- Popular Party Girl” to anyone that likes dramatic and funny books.

If you want to read about a boy with powers or a boy that lives in a grave yard read on because The Grave Yard Book has both of those things. I personally loved the book because it had what I like in a book because it had mysteries and puzzles. The part I would change is the part when the ghost starts singing” all shall dance the mackaray” to some thing else because the song never made sense and it never explained it. If I was a character, I would have solved the problem by getting the main character a gun like Taser. The one juicy word would be dangerous because the main character is hunted by at least a thousand people. I would recommend this book to people that like adventure  books because this book has lots of adventures . If you like this, book review, read The Grave Yard Book by buying the book on the link above.

       Tales From A Not-So-Dorky Drama Queen is a hilarious and entertaining book with humorous adventures about a middle school girl named Nikki Maxwell. I absolutely enjoyed this book because I like books that are funny and amusing, but also have crazy adventures. If I were the author, I would change nothing about Tales From A Not-So-Dorky Drama Queen because this book is spectacular and there is nothing to change! If I was Nikki Maxwell, I would’ve solved the problem by suspecting it was Mackenzie Hollister who stole my dairy. So, I would have somehow taken the book back away from her. If it belonged to me, I would have told the principal. One juicy word to describe Tales From a Not-So-Dorky Drama Queen is ADVENTURESOME because this book may be comical, but it also has a lot of adventures in it, too! I recommend this book for ages 10 and up. Read Tales From a Not-So-Dorky Drama Queen, and it will change your life forever!

If I were the author, I would not change a single part of the book because it is the best book I have ever read and there is no better way to solve the mystery than a bunch of clues leading them to finding the captured Mr Benedict. If I were a character in the book, I would have solved the problem the same way they did because they solved it in the most intelligent and unexpected way.  One juicy word to describe this book would be thriller because it is a really exciting book and once you start reading, you can’t stop.
