  • Super Powereds Year 3

    This third book in the series really amps it up. Aside from growing and surprising new facets to their powers, this group of young college students will be tested far more than before. If you have read the previous two books then you are in for more and greater. Word of caution to those who…

  • The Mystery in the Mall

    Book 72 of the Boxcar Children. Strange happenings follow the Alden children and there are definitely twists and turns along with people all over acting suspicious. With lots of hard work they’ll get to the bottom of it all.

  • Moon Rising

    Book 6 of Wings of Fire. This was a very interesting change from the first three books. I love the direction and it feels like it should have been book one with a modified series title. That said I love the new direction. I am hoping for lots of twists and turns as we move…

  • Eat to Beat Disease

    This is a very good look at the effects food has onour overall health. There are a lot of cited studies and information based on the latest genetic research. This goes a long way into what they feel each type of food does to you at a genetic level and how to influence that based…

  • The Diversion

    Book 49 of the Animorphs. The whole series is coming to a head. We hear from Tobias in this episode. There are still 5 books in the series but things are becoming very serious very quickly. I am excited to see how the whole thing ends. Hang on to your hat, this one is a…

  • Brightest Night

    Book 5 of the Wings of Fire. This is an amazing conclusion to the story and could have easily been the end of the series. The best part is not only that we get to better know and understand Sunny, but the difference she makes with the obvious analogy of the weakest being the strongest.…

  • The Ghost Town Mystery

    Book 71 of The Boxcar Children series. The Alden children are at it again. This runs along the same vein as the others. We have a couple of suspicious characters and a lot of bad cooking and bad hotel service. The is something rotten in Denmark and it ain’t just the cooking. Well thought out…

  • Black House

    This would be a follow on book to Talisman. It takes a lot for me to get through Mr King’s books. This is a dark book best read when the lights are on. This was a serial killer unlike any I have read about before. It takes a bit off the supernatural for one like…

  • The Dark Secret

    Book 4 of Wings of Fire. This was a deepening of the storyline with a visit to mysterious black wing dragons. I loved this one as it was very insightful and confirmed a lot of the questions I had made my conclusions about. If you have enjoyed the series thus far this book will not…

  • The Parasite

    Book 8 of the Michael Vey series or book 1 of the new series. Not sure what to call it. Oh yeah, Vey is back with his Electroclan. Great to see the gang back at it and it is also a return to some familiar territory. There is a lot of filler in the book,…
