Book 14 of the Animorphs. This was entertaining and action packed. But still no real movement to the overarching plot line. One more of the hundreds of battles in a war. I did enjoy it and it was fun to see a nice head nod to Area 51. That said it will be interesting to…

Sometimes the books that become movies surprise me and this is one of those times. It was a fun read but I don’t see why it became such a hit. I am sure I am in the minority, but this is not a top ten book for me. Nor is it a strong recommend. There…

This was book 4 of the Unwanteds series. I did enjoy this novel and felt it brought the whole world into better focus. Less silly coincidental things happening. Lots of action. This was well done and I think YA would love the read. The only complaint I could have would be that it wants to…

Boxcar Children #17 this was not my favorite. There was nothing wrong just cannot get that excited over the subject matter. This was not in my top 10 but was fine and I would still recommend it to those young readers out there.

Animorphs book 13. To start with, I am excited to write this review. This book was great. It hit on all levels. Even though this is stand alone, the emotional payoff is far more impressive. So far in the series this is the top book. This books explains a lot more and gives us greater…

First book in this fantasy / dystopian future novel. Well written, kept me engaged. Albeit exciting, it is a fun world and I am excited to see where the book series goes from here. I have to believe with a series this long that it will get a stronger plot line, not saying this was…

This was a well written non-fiction book talking about the science behind dinosaurs. The author is good to give us insights as to what science is and is not. Albeit the is a little soap boxing l, most of the book is very interesting. This is a subject that still has years if not decades…
