The Selection Series by Kiera Cass

So far in this series, Im on The Elite which is the second book, Im about 250 pages into it so I dont have much left. Some short easy books to book fanatics to read. I loved these books. I loved the concept I loved the wording. Something that I hated was the main character. She was so irritable it made my skin crawl. I do highly recommend this series to people who like a dystopian novel/romance and games, although you might be throwing these books across the room a couple of times due to the main characters thought process and actions. Im sure you will love these books, and some of you might like the main character although, I personally do not. -Delaney

Book Review Eleanor and Park by Rainbow Rowell

A cutsie contemporary love story that will keep you hating the enemy, and loving the main characters. I do not recommend this book to anybody under the age of maybe 11 or 12 because there are some things in it that may not be appropriate. But it was definitely an amazing book. You see the struggle in Eleanor and what she has to go through and then you see the little things that Park has to deal with and you see how they help each others own problems. Everyone over the age of 11 should definitely read this book.

Book Review Linked by Imogen Howsen

I literally just finished this book. I absolutely loved it! I was really frustrated with the main character, because she seemed to be arrogant and ignorant and just annoying kind of. She made stupid decisions but I loved to hate her! Throughout the book, I found myself like yelling at her and other characters inside of my head, because I couldn't scream out-loud because it was 2 am and my family was asleep. You guys should really read it if you like space and shuttles and things like that, but if you don't particularly like that kind of stuff, you will definitely not like this. --Delaney Grace MacDonald

Book Review of Ms. Peregrines Home For Peculiar Children by Ransom Riggs

I believe that this book was amazingly written! The old photographs that are within the book are so interesting to look at and they make the book even more interesting. I know I probably say this a lot or Im going to, but you are kind of pulled into the home for peculiar children because you get to know them through the main character. The abilities that they have are so interesting too. The girl who has to put lead in her shoes so she can just stay on the ground. It is a thin book, big readers could finish it in one sitting. Maybe... I actually read this way before I reviewed it. so dont worry --Delaney Grace MacDonald

Double Identity by Margret Peterson Haddix

Honestly, I loved this book. It is a simple read that you can just sit down for a couple of hours and finish it. I love Margret Peterson Haddix, she is an amazing writer. Just the things that she can come up with. During the book you are kind of trapped inside of what the main character is feeling, and then you come to this realization that her mom is kind of going insane. She doesn't know what's going on and she is really scared and she shares all of her emotions with you in the book. About two summers ago, I took the entire summer reading all of Haddix's books and other books as well. I have always loved her and possibly always will. --Delaney Grace MacDonald
