This fiction book is mainly about a story about a boy named Jackson who didn't know what was going on. Him and his family struggled with hunger and homelessness which made his imaginary friend, Crenshaw, appear--an large black cat with a white belly.

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.

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.??

Patina by Jason Reynolds in a realistic fiction and the second book in the Track series. This book is about the main character, Patina, and her life on the track team. With a complicated family history and no friends in school, Patina faces many different challenges along the way. However, she eventually figures everything out and wins many races. This book was a great sequel to the first book in the series, Ghost. I would definitely recommend this book to people who are interested in these kinds of topics.

It is very fun. Karen has a big fight with Nancy but then because of her enemy Pamela, she makes up with Nancy.

“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.

Starfish by Lisa Fipps is a fiction poem book. The book is about the main character, Ellie, getting bullied by her friends, strangers, and even her own family just because of her weight. Ellie just wantes people to see her inside self, not just her looks. She must fight and gain courage to stand up for herself. Luckily, she isn't alone. Even though this book was a poem book (and I usually don't like poem books) I really enjoyed reading it. I think that many people who get bullied or don't get seen as their true selves would gain courage that they are not alone after reading the book.
