Legend


Great, Great Book!!!!!


Wow. That is really all I can say about Legend. Fast-paced and ferocious, it sucked me in and kept me there until the end. The characters were great, the plot was fast-moving and the writing was good. It put a great spin on a futuristic society and the politics that go along with it and asks a question that none of us really want to answer: how far will you go to follow the orders of your country? If you liked Divergent, you should definitely read this.

The Future of Us

The Future of Us tells the story of best friends Emma and Josh. When Emma gets her first email account, a browser showing Facebook shows up on her screen. She looks into it and sees her future in fifteen years. Josh and Emma realize that changing little things in their present lives affects their futures in big ways. The two teenagers endure the normal challenges that face adolescents, but with the knowledge that they had gained about their futures. The book keeps you interested and makes you want the best for the characters. Though the ending is slightly predictable, I still felt myself smiling when I finished.

Mousenet


Mousenet is a sweet story about a girl who lives with her mom. Her mom does research on global warming and travels the globe to study animals, but when she is left with her Aunt who thinks her sweaters are disgusting and she is barely civilized. Her cousin just thinks she's plain weird. 

The only friends she has are mice that stowed away in her suitcase to try to find out about the thumb-top: a mini computer that is just the right size for mice. What she must do for them is get the computer ready for mass production, and to do that she must win the trust of her cousin  and sneak her way around without being caught!

 I recommend this book to anyone who likes sweet fantasy.

Tiger's Voyage


Tiger's Voyage, in my opinion, was a horrible book. The characters were not very understandable, and I wasn't able to picture what they looked like in my mind. Also, the book's plot was filled with holes, so it was very hard to enjoy. Usually if you haven't read the first book in the series you can still catch up, but I couldn't with this book. I am very disappointed with the way this book was written.

Wherever You Go


Wherever You Go is about Holly a seventeen year old girl whose boyfriend has just died and she has to look after her little sister and grandfather who has Alzheimer's. Jason was Rob's best friend and is starting to fall in love with Holly. Rob is a ghost who is stuck on earth and no one can see except for Holly's grandfather. I really enjoyed this book and I would definitely recommend it to people who like romance and realistic fiction (even though there's a ghost).
