I’d Tell You I Love You, But Then I’d Have to Kill You by Ally Carter

I love this book, because it made me laugh.  It was also a love story and a spy book.  This book kept me turning pages and I want to read the sequel!  I would totally recommend this novel to any reader who wants a funny love story, and a fast read.  Plus, it’s full of adventure.  I loved the book, I’d Tell You I Love You, but Then I’d Have to Kill You.

The Sea of Monsters by Rick Riordan

The Sea of Monsters was a very interesting sequel to The Lightning Thief.  It contained lots of action and adventure.  I felt that I got to know each character better than in the first book.  I enjoyed this book very much because there were surprises in almost every chapter, so I could not stop reading it.

When Jane loses her arm in a shark attack all she can think is “why me?”  It takes a lot of courage to go to school everyday because of her arm.  One time she even wished she had died after the attack.  All in all, after everything Jane finally accepts the truth and makes herself stronger.

Diary of a Wimpy Kid: The Ugly Truth by Jeff Kinney

I think this book has good information on a middle schooler’s life.  This book is good for both kids who like to read and who don’t like to read.  It is also funny.

Double Identity by Margaret Peterson Haddix

I loved this book.  I love anything written by this author.  There are so many twists and turns.  You never knew what was coming next.  I couldn’t put the pieces together, so it made me want to keep reading.  I couldn’t put this book down.

Bad Kitty by Michele Jaffe

Bad Kitty is a story about Jasmine.  It is told in the first person so it makes the story even more interesting.  Many things change the plot, so the book is never predictable.  5 stars.
