  • Triple Cross

    Book 30 of the Alex Cross series. This was an intense twist book keeping you wondering just who the bad guy was. Interestingly Alex is headed one direction and Bree Stone another and yet the cases come neatly together. Well I guess it does not always work out that way, but we a fun way…

  • Super Powereds Year 4

    The meant to be conclusion to the series. This was a great book with all the action you’ve come to live by this point in the series. Also, there is something of conclusion and happy ending. There is a lot of cussing but aside from that this book fully displays the writing strength of Mr.…

  • The Mystery in the Computer Game

    Book 78 of the Boxcar Children. Leave it to the Alden children to take a simple computer game and find wrongdoing. So, it is a little deeper than just the computer game. But still an excellent mystery that leads us on a chase to not only figure out who the bad guy is but what…

  • It

    One of the most famous of Stephen King’s novels. This is a very long book and jumps forward and backward in time enough that you have to follow it closely. I am unsure if I am a huge fan of the book even though it is very well written. There is a certain “Stand By…

  • The Answer

    Book 53 of the Animorphs series. This would have been an interesting way to end the full series. But there is a final book. By far this book is more ruthless and war based than any of the others. Filled with personal justifications and deceptions it will keep you enraptured. I am excited to read…

  • Talons of Power

    Book 9 of the Wings of Fire. This was a really fun read. We get to see a lot more of what an animus dragon can do. This is Turtle’s tale and was one of my favorite books so far. I highly recommend this series. This was the first book so far where the scavengers…

  • The Mystery of the Wild Ponies

    Book 77 of the Boxcar Children series. A missing horse and a strange boy. When things start going missing. The mystery deepens. Lots of secrets everywhere and who all could be involved. This one is a lot deeper than you would think.

  • The Great Bike Race Mystey

    Book 76 of the Boxcar Children series. This was a fun one as it was a mystery where the perpetrator actually went after the Alden children to some extent. Some of the stuff done could have injured people, albeit it is kept lighthearted. Good strong mystery with environmental undertones. Good demonstration of getting involved.

  • Escaping Peril

    Book 8 of the Wings of Fire. This one was a great adventure following the skywing Peril. It was fun to have an in-depth view of this strange dragon and it really made the story great. I love when things seem their very best right before they become horrible. What a great way to create…

  • The Sacrifice

    Book 52 of the Animorphs. This book talks to where your allegiances lie are they with the place you were born or with the place you live in. I liked that. Of course this is a huge step in the war effort. We are now two books from the end and getting nearer to the…
