Sticks and Stones by Abby Cooper
If you could ask the author/illustrator of this book one question, what would it be?
What made you find out about this idea? This is a different book from all the others. I just think that words on somebody is a very interesting idea.

Yes, I would recommend this book. This book is an amazing book. It's about a boy named Perry who goes on a mission to figure out the real story of why his mom is in jail. This was an awesome adventure that Perry goes on and you should read it to find out what happens.

Lumberjanes: A series by Noelle Stevenson, Grace Ellis, Shannon Watters, Kat Leyh, and Faith Erin Hicks
In Lumberjanes: A series by Noelle Stevenson, Grace Ellis, Shannon Watters, Kat Leyh, and Faith Erin Hicks, (Wow! That's a lot of authors/illustrators!) One of my favorite parts was in one of the books when Mal and Molly were picnicking, and so Jo, April, and Ripley are left to try to earn some of the simplest badges, which proves to be difficult for the monster - chasers of the Roanoke cabin. None of the girls got any badges, except Ripley, who earns many, including cake decorating and ballroom dancing, both with Bubbles the Raccoon. I really suggest this series.

Princeless Vol. 1 and 2 by Jeremy Whitley
Princess is one of favorite comic book series EVER!!!!!!!!! Princess Adrienne is not your typical princess. Before you ask, no, she did not want to be locked up in a tower, but she was elbow-deep in that steak before she realized that it had sleeping potion in it, and the next thing she knew, there she was in that tower, supposed to be waiting for a prince to rescue her. Adrienne has other plans. When she finds a hidden sword under her bed, she teams up with Sparky, the dragon guarding her tower, Bedelia, a blacksmith, and they embark on a quest to save Adrienne's sisters. If you like Goodnight Stories for Rebel Girls, you will love this series.

When You Reach Me by Rebecca Stead
If you could ask the author/illustrator of this book one question, what would it be?
In When You Reach Me, there is a really big realization at the end of the book. I will try not to spoil it, but really; read the book! This probably won't make much sense if you haven't read this book, (I mean, why haven't you already;P ) If I could ask the author, Rebecca Stead, any question, I have two. The first one would be: Why did the "Laughing Man" lie under a mailbox? was that whole thing just for the last note? And my second question would be: Is there a sequel? Please tell me there is a sequel. When You Reach Me is the kind of book that I just don't ever want to put down. (Not literally, that would be REALLY awkward) And that is why I think that you should read When You Reach Me by Rebecca Stead.

Violet In Bloom: A Flower Power Book - Lauren Myracle
What character(s) in this book would you most and least like to be friends with, and why?
I think that in this book, the character I would most like to be friends with would be Yasaman. Yasaman is a muslim girl who can do anything that she wants on a computer. Later in the book, she literally codes and creates an entire website that is a lot like texting, but with tons of awesome feature from absolutely nothing except her brain. It's not that I don't like the other three girls, (or any of the minor characters) it's just that, well, Yasaman seems more my type of friend, though I'm sure I 'd get along fine with Camilla, Katie-Rose, and Violet. Which one is your "type"? find out by reading Violet In Bloom: A Flower Power Book - Lauren Miracle.

The Land Of Stories Book 6: Worlds Collide
If you could rewrite one part of the story, what would you change?
SO. This was the BBIIGG finale book in the "Land Of Stories Series" series. IT was AWESOME! I felt like I was actually in the NY City and seeing the battles in the skies and ground!
I would only change the ending part, ONLY because I thought it ended out sad but good. I hope Mr. Colfer makes another series with Charlie and all the other grandkids of the other characters.

The Stars Beneth Our Feet by David Barclay Moor
Nobody close to me has ever died before. But to everyone out there who has, had a special person who has passed on, I cant imagine the feeling. Neither can I imagine what "Lolly" must feel like, losing his only {sibling &} brother to a ruthless gang with a revolver. What it feels like to have your family be a jumbled up mess, and only be able to turn to building Lego's.

A Series of Unfortunate Events: The Slippery Slope By Lemony Snicket
What books would you recommend to the main character of the book and why?
This is the tenth tragic book in the Baudelaire Orphan Series. Count Olaf is still tirelessly chasing after Violet, Clause & Sunny and their fortune.
If I could give ANY of those four main characters advice I would tell Count Olaf to
"Give Up, Sucker! Your 'NEVA 'gonna get that fortune!"
And to the Baudelaire's, I'd say
"DONT give UP! You will SUCSSED in the end!"

More Than This by Patrick Ness
If you could ask the author/illustrator of this book one question, what would it be?
Call me crazy, but I always wonder what it FEELS like to die or what do you SEE after you actually die. Probably because I read too many dead people adventures.
In this book, Seth died by the hand of water, and wakes up striped naked inside a coffin in his old house. Throughout this book, Seth has to run, hide and venture {literally} into deaths territory.
The one question I would ask Mr. Patrick is why right THIS book? Don't get me wrong, I love it, but why right a adventure that "happened" after death? Had he flat lined before and was just interested in writing about death? Who knows?
