Book 114 of the Boxcar Children series. This one is all about life in the ranch. Horse ranch to be specific. When horses start disappearing the Alden kids find themselves in another mystery. Fun and adventure follow with a lot of cool details, like another use for goldfish. A great read for readers of all…

Phule’s Company
This is book 1 of the Phule’s Company series and the second series I am reading through by Robert Asprin. His writing style is wonderful. This book is a strong opener giving us several characters we are excited for. This book is themed for treating people how you want them to be and watch them…

Fugitive
Book 11 of Zom-B. This book is a great builder for the final book. Loose ends are getting tied up and all the pieces are on the board. The final scenes are looming. That said there was still plenty of action and giving of the finger. Still not appropriate for younger or sensitive readers. Overall…

How to Fight a Dragon’s Fury
Book 12 of How to Train Your Dragon. This is the conclusion to the series and wraps up very well. This concludes in a way to wrap up the various storylines and still allow it to be considered historical fiction. The entire series is age appropriate and leaves us with a smile and knowing that…

How to Betray a Dragon’s Hero
Book 11 of How to Train Your Dragon. This is the builder for the final book in the series. That said it isn’t boring. Lots of close calls and danger coupled with dating rescues and sacrifices. This book could be mid series as it does not let up until the end and leaves out valiente…

The Cure
Book 2 of Piggy. Super fun adventure. Fast paced and lots of escapes that are narrow and harrowing as they search for the cure. Still maintains the video game feel with swinging axe and all. Still continues to be appropriate for Goosebumps readers and others.

Infected
Piggy book 1. This novel reads like a video game. There is plenty of action running and fighting the infected creatures of the island. A lot is held back and I wonder if those familiar with the series are able to fill in blanks that I am hoping will be revealed soon. The writing is…

The Carpet People
This book in true Terry Pratchett style had me laughing and loving the comparisons. I loved the concept on this one and loved the scale change based on the size of the carpet people. Overall a great read and super fun story. I love that this was rewritten from an earlier work and comparing the…

Bride
Book 10 of Zom-B. This one takes us deep inside the evil lair. I am excited for the twist that has been hinted at and this book has built up to. The series is nearing its crescendo and we can feel all the parts coming together. This book is a strong book in its own…

The Aspects
Book 5 of the Infinite Realms. The small reviews cannot do justice to these books as they’re very in-depth and keeps the action rolling. I loved the various character growth lines. These books are longer than most and so can really spend the time on the little details that really highlight the growth and motivation…
