Great

I found it pretty good but got boring later. And at the end Mayor Hubble pulled off a “April Fools” prank but it wasn’t on April the 1st! It was April the 2nd!

Ok book.

I did not like this book because the author only focused on the problem of the Malloys and their neighbors. She did not give much detail and only showed one side of the story. I would not recommend this book to anyone.??

Eight Times Up by John Corr is a fiction. The book is about Riley trying out a new sport, aikido. Aikido is a Japanese martial arts. He tries out aikido in hope of controlling his emotions better and to have less anxiety in his life. Even though Riley faces many difficulties during this new sport, he finds out many important things also. Riley's aikido experience gives out a special message to all.

I like this book because it showed how bonds can change but everything will still be alright. It was a little easy for me to read.

“The Enchantress Returns” is the second book of “The Land Of Stories” series. The book starts in the Eastern Kingdom where Queen Sleeping Beauty and her citizens celebrate the recovery of the sleeping curse, when the kingdom’s greatest fear, the Enchantress, returned. When I read this part of the story, I was both terrified and curious about what the Enchantress's goal was. Later on, the Enchantress kidnaps Alex and Conner’s mom, and the twins try to find a way to defeat the Enchantress. They find a thing called the Wand Of Wonderment which could make anyone holding it invincible. But, they have numerous obstacles in their way. Read on and find out if they can save their mom.

I knew most of the information already, it didn’t teach me anything new. It wasn’t that interesting so I gave it only 3 stars. Thank you! -young reader”

This book is perfect for those who want to read about the juicy life of the main character, Isabel, or Belly Conklin. Belly and her family go to their family’s beach house every summer. For the summers before, she was only seen as a little sister. However, this year was different. She has a major glow up, and she still had the same crush, Conrad, whom was her family friend. However, Conrad showed no feelings for Belly, and was feeling more distant this year due to multiple things. Towards the end of the story, Belly dates another guy, Cam, while she still had a crush on Conrad. She eventually confronts to Conrad, which doesn’t end up well. This book makes readers feel as if they are experiencing the plot with Belly, and has a lot of relatable experiences. Overall, this book is really good and interesting, but is a little fast paced, and I had to read it twice to fully understand all of the plot.
