The first great book I read this summer was Stargirl. This book was written by one of my favorite authors, Jerry Spinelli. On the first day a mysterious girl, Stargirl, is seen dancing around the halls and singing "Happy Birthday" on her ukulele in the cafeteria. Instantly Leo is hooked and can't stop thinking about her. But this isn't your typical high school love story. Stargirl has a strange, but wonderful way she views the world and starts to change the whole school. However, her world is turned upside down along with Leo's. Read this awesome book and it could change the way you view Shaker Junior High School! 4 stars!!!

If you've read my reading blog before you know I like to read series books. Well this month a picked up Hollow City, Ransom Riggs, this is the second book in the Miss Peregrine series. The whole cast is back for a spooky trip to try and turn Miss Peregrine back into her human form. they meet lots of interesting characters (which have great pictures) on their adventure. There is a surprising twist at the end that will keep you guessing and ready for the 3rd book to come out later this month. A great read if you liked the first book, or if you like scary books. 3 stars! |
