The book is very recommended for those who like mystery and stuff that involve traveling, love and suspense in a book. Then this book is for you. It is really interesting the way Kyla changed her name and change color of hair. She also goes to see her mother but realized that she was adopted.

Moby Dick By: Herman Melville
Moby Dick is narrated by a boy named Ishmael. The narrator is a reliable source of information because Ishmael was there during this story and witnessed all the events that took place during this story. This book takes place in the 1850s in New Bedford, Massachusetts. This book is a classic by Herman Melville. Herman also wrote Typee, and Billy Budd. This book is about a young man whose name is Ishmael. He goes on a whaling ship called the Pequod. He learns how to whale and what to do after you kill the whale. Sadly their captain, Ahab is after only one whale, named Moby Dick. Moby Dick is huge, and Ahab could only imagine, how much oil and money he could make. He also wants to kill Moby Dick because the whale took off the captain’s leg a couple years back. I encourage you to read this book to find out about the adventures of Moby Dick, Ahab and Ishmael. I like this book because, it is more an educational book. Not only does it take you alongside the captain and teach you about whaling it also encourages bravery and to find courage within yourself. I would like to read more by Herman Melville, because I love the way he explains everything and how he has so much detail in his book. I would give it a 10 out of 10 stars. - Brianna

Insurgent by Veronica Roth
The second book in the series Divergent, Tris and the others escape the Amity headquarters after nearly being captured by the Erudite. Caleb becomes one of the informers for Erudite. They find shelter with Candor, but it's not long before Erudite tracks them down. Erudite shoots, but they're not bullets. Blue dye spreads around inside their skin where they got shot. What are they? And, most importantly, if they're transmitters, what is Erudite going to do, and why?, And if Candor thinks it's because of Dauntless (they're there too), where are they going to go?

Captain underpants and the terrifying return of tippy tinkletrousers
This was a very good book to read because it had just the right amount of suspenseful and interesting parts in the story. This book also made me laugh a lot with all the kindergartners playing pranks on middle schoolers for example: George and Harold put dresses in Kippers locker and texted all his friends and told them that Kipper would hold a tea party during their downtime. Kippers friends heard the news and laughed so hard they wet their pants. Kipper denied that he was holding a tea party, but his friends would not believe him, so they made him open his locker to show them evidence that he did not have any tea party material in his locker. The moment of truth when he opened his locker came and there was plenty of dresses, teacups, and even dolls. Also in this book Kipper and the rest of his friends bully George and Harold every day before school, so one day when George and Harold met each other Harold was getting bullied and George saved the day by using his tie that his parents made him went to school as a whip and fought the bullies off. Over all this book was simply fantastic, and very fascinating.

NERDS-The Cheerleaders of Doom by Michael Buckley
This exciting book brings you threw the life of a spy. It takes you threw a series of suspense, excitement, and fear. It's the 3rd book in the series after NERDS-M is for Momma's Boy, written by the same author, Michael Buckley. Each NERDS book is based on 1 of the NERDS and shows their view and life. This book is based on Wheezer, the supposed muscle on the team. It breaks her down and shows the bits of her that may or may not exist. Like, spoiler alert: under all those cuts and bruises is a cheerleader ready to be freed.
What's Heathcliff Hodge'd plan to take over the world "without" his nano bytes (hint, hint)? Being trapped in a Hospital for the mentally unstable does not help either. Having to be surrounded and bombarded with the mentally ill may be driving him insane. How long could he stand?
While reading this book you will be put through some questioning to make sure you are sane enough to be a spy and join the NERDS, National, Espionage, Rescue, Defense, Society. Michael Buckley or former spy, puts up a hard fight but as long as your focused and not a total freak like Izzy from Total Drama Island, I think you can make it. Izzy's last words before being hunted down by a rescue helicopter!!!! (Don't ask) "you'll never get me alive!" (phsycho).
