        I think Reformed is an amazing book so you should try it out.

I liked it because it was an adventure book and that is my favorite type of book.

If I could change one part of the book, I would change the part where they put cheese

in the book and they should have put nothing.  If I were ash Alva and Jermy to stop putting cheese in the book.

 If I could choose one juicy word to describe the book, I would choose crazy because something was always going on.

 I think if you like adventure books Reformed would be a good book for you.

Stefano's Book Review on The Marvels:

The Marvels is a mysterious, plot twisting, and shocking book all at the same time. From the heartbreaking shipwreck of 1766 to the burning of the Royal Theater in 1900, this book, no matter what genre you’re into, is the book for you. I would say the book is a very unique book, but every book has something to correct, even the Lord of the Rings. Brian Selznick has a passion for using big words, and that’s not bad. The problem is that he uses words that some people don’t understand. Words like rubbish, and plaque are very unfamiliar to other people. But overall, the book is really amazing. If I were Brian Selznick, I would change the part where Joseph runs away from St. Anthony’s because in my opinion, it’s a pretty stupid idea to run away from your school just because you want to find your best friend, Blink, who left the school. I would certainly not do that! If I were Joseph in the Marvels, I would solve the mystery of the Marvels family similar to how Joseph did, but I would solve it in a less adventurous way, because I find stealing the tapes, and going all the way to the way to the Royal Theater just tiring. What I would do is I would slowly make uncle Albert gain my trust, and then I would ask him all about the Marvels. What Joseph did in the book was he annoyed uncle Albert to the point that uncle Albert just didn’t trust Joseph. If I could pick one juicy word to describe the Marvels, it would be page-turning. Brian Selznick has this ability to always make the reader turn the page. I have only read the Marvels, but I know I’ll be reading The Invention of Hugo Cabret and Wonder Struck very soon! So whatever book you’re going to read next, I just hope you consider reading The Marvels. Trust me, you won’t regret it!

            The Dark Prophecy is the second book in the amazing series Trials of Apollo.

  I loved the book because it has lots of cliffhangers and action. 

If I was Rick Riordan I would change the part where a griffin dies because he didn’t deserve to die.

  I would have solved the problem where the griffin dies by going to the place where the griffin lived earlier.

  If I could pick one juicy word to describe the book it would be action because it is packed with it.

 In my opinion you should read The Dark Prophecy because it is a hilarious and amazing book.

The Lightning Thief, is an awesome, interesting, adventurous, and a fantastic book because it taught me about all the greek gods and what they do.  One part I would change about The Lightning Thief would be when Grover leaves Camp Half Blood to find Pan. If I was Percy I would have solved the problem by staying with Annabeth and Grover because when they left percy alone a monster attacked him. If I could pick one juicy word to describe The Lightning Thief, it would be mysterious because Percy, Annabeth, and Grover do not know who stole Zeuses lightning bolt or the helm for Hades. The Lightning Thief is the best book I have ever read in my life!

The Chocolate Challenge is a mysterious novel that makes you keep reading with all of its pranks, chocolate, and four enemies joining together to keep it all alive.

I loved the book because of everything in the book but especially the brilliant pranks. If I was the author, I wouldn’t change anything to the book but what I would do is add a lot more pranks to the book because the tricks and pranks were soooo brilliant. If I was Phoebe in The Chocolate Challenge, I would have solved the problem by just telling Deerfield that Granville would never win because Deerfield had the two biggest sales in town. If Phoebe just told them that, the prank war wouldn’t have to begin ( even though it had really good pranks). If I could pick ONE JUICY WORD to describe the book, it would be intrigued because with all of its tricks you always want to know what will happen next. The Chocolate Challenge is an excellent book to read so if you can’t find a good book to read  READ THIS BOOK IMMEDIATELY.

I loved The Ersatz Elevator, and I hope you will as well.

I loved the book because it has good vocabulary , it was funny, and it had action . If I was the author,  I would change the part were Timmy’s polar bear,  Total,  has to go to the zoo because it made me sad. If I was a character in the book I would fix the problem by getting better grades and paying more attention in school. If I had to choose one word to describe this book,  it would be hilarious . After this book review,  I hope I have  convinced you to read Timmy Failure Mistakes Were Made because I loved it and I think you will too.

If you like mysteries and adventures, then The Invention Of Hugo Cabret is the book for you! I liked this book because it was mysterious and always left me wanting to know what happens next. If I were the author I would change the part where Isabelle closes the door on Hugo’s fingers because he get’s caught and makes things harder for him. If I was Hugo, I would solve the problem of the automaton not being fixed by going around the whole city looking and asking for gears along with nails. If I could pick one juicy word to describe the book, it would be mysterious because it  always left me wanting to know what happened next. I hope you enjoyed reading this and will go to your nearest library or on Amazon to get The Invention Of Hugo Cabret.

            Escape from Mr. Lemoncello’s Library is a thrilling story with a kid who loves games but as soon he learns that the greatest game maker ever is coming to town, everything changes. I love the book because of all the thrilling cliffhangers and the amazing page-turner. If I were the author, I would the probably change the ending because of how the players won. If I were Kyle, I would solve my problem by letting more people join my group. If I could choose one word to describe the book, it would be page-turning because it was a page-turner. Escape from Mr. Lemoncello’s Library is probably the best book I have ever read.

Whatshisface is a fun, action- packed adventure about a boy who just moved to a new town and has a ghost from the 18^th century in his phone.  I liked this book because it had a lot of cliff hangers,  humor, action, and had very good descriptive writing.  The writing helps you to visualize what is happening. If I were the author, I would change that Roddy (The Ghost) dies of plauge because I did not really understand what it was, therefore I could not visualize the substance as a reader. If I were Cooper in the story, I would solve the problem by turning the situation over to the police. Although they might not believe it, they still, might investigate. If I could choose ONE JUICY WORD to describe the book, it would be enticing because it’s so tempting to read.  Whatshisface is such a good fit for me and I hope it is for you too.

If you like mysteries time travel and adventure you will love The Last Musketeer! I loved the novel The Last Musketeer because it was full of mysteries and excitement.   If I was the author I would not change anything in the book because it was perfect the way it was written.  If I was Greg I would have solved the problem the exact same way he did because the way he did it was perfect.  If I could pick one juicy word to describe the book it would be exiting because the story made me want to always flip to the next page.  I hope you will read The Last Musketeer and enjoy it.

Spy School is an exciting and mysterious book about a  kid name Ben Ripley who went to a spy school to use his intelligence as a spy.  Ben is always on the run from an evil organization.  I loved this book because there are so many questions to be answered and there are so many plot twists.  If I was Stuart Gibbs, l would change who the mole was in the book because it makes Spy School a little confusing when you find out who is the mole.  If l was one character in the book, l would be Ben and l would have solved my problems by trying not to be friends with anybody.

If l could pick one juicy word to describe this book it would be SURPRISING  because there are a lot of plot twists in this book.  Spy School is perfect for whoever loves mystery’s and exciting adventure’s.

All Four Stars is a book  about baking, action, and disasters in the kitchen. I absolutely loved this book because it is all about taking risks and it is also about baking which I love. If I was the author, I would change how Sandy doesn’t go to Gladys’s school because then Gladys would have one friend. I would also like to change how the book doesn't have any illustrations. If I was Gladys, I would fix the problem of not being able to go to Classy Cakes by telling her dad that in school there was a project to write a review for Classy Cakes. If I could pick ONE JUICY WORD to describe All Four Stars,it would be stealthy because everything Gladys did was a secret so she had to be stealthy to do it. This book is definitely one of the best books I have read because there is always something happening. If you are a person that loves baking, action, and excitement all-in-one, then All Four Stars is the book for you.

Timmy Failure Mistakes Were Made is an amazing book about a kid named Timmy Failuer and He is a detective.  His conpany name is named Total failuer.  His pet is a polar bear named total.  I loved the book so much.  I loved it because it was really funny in the events between Total and Timmy, and kind of scary for Timmy sometimes and I love those type of things.  If I was the author I would change Total so he wasn’t a polar bear,  not because he isn’t good in the story, but if he was a grizzly bear, there might have been a little more action in the book. If I was Timmy, I would solve the problem of losing Total by studying harder than ever and taking a break on detective work.  One juicy word to describe this book would be AMAZING because this book is full of action  Timmy Failure Mistakes Were Made is full of every thing you would ever want including really funny, little bit of drama, and it is a great book.

Stars of Summer is an amazing book. About a twelve year old girl named Gladys Gatsby who seceretly works as a resturant critict for the most famous newspaper (the New York Standard).  She will review many fun resturants.  Along the way it will get more and more interesting. This book was remarkable! I think it had very crazy parts it has very nerveracking momments.  If I were the author, I would change that Stars of Summer has no pictures! And I would change this because this makes the book more fun and you can see what is happening. If I were Gladys in this book, I would feel stressed because Gladys has a lot of things on her mind right now. If I could pick one juicy word to describe this book, I would pick inspiring because this book has a lot of people who inspire me to do my own thing. The best part is they are all kids!  Find out more about Gladys by first reading All Four Stars, then Stars of Summer, and lastly Stars So Sweet.

All Four Stars is about a girl named Gladys Gatsby that loves to cook, and review food. Gladys is not allowed to cook, because she set the curtains on fire. One day the New York Standard, a famous magazine company e-mailed her to be a food critic. Can she keep her new job a secret? I loved this book so much, because it is so adventurous, with many problems that occur constantly. If I were the author of this book, I would change the part when Charissa decides to invite one person to her birthday party and instead she would bring at least two friends. If I were Gladys, I would solve the problem about the New York Standard by calling or e-mailing them that her letter was for the contest and not a letter from a adult that wants to be a food citic. One juicy word that I would use to describe this book is adventurous, because the book is full with adventures. All Four Stars is a great book that everyone would love, even if they aren’t into cooking!
