I sure do. I know that is a classic saying that we have heard and it is true. The problem is, we all judge books by their covers. When we see something that looks good we want it. This is true whether it is a book or a video game.One book that I made the mistake of judging by its cover was The Extraordinary Adventures of Alfred Kropp. I love this book. At first when it was recommended to me

39 Clues. This book series is sure to get you hooked. The best part about this book is how fast they wrote it. One of the worst parts about reading a series is waiting a year for each additional book to come out. For example, it took me 5 years to read the Percy Jackson Lighting Thief series. It was worth the wait but it took a long time. With this new series, 39 clues, they came out with a

This is a new book that I have not yet read. Occasionally I will post books that I haven't read yet. I did earlier on the blog with the books about the kids in Disney Land. This book series was recommended to me by one of the librarians at my school. She is from England and always has excellent books to suggest. I also am interested in this book, because the author is from Ireland. The last

Here is a book that I read last year that I am sure you will enjoy as I did. This is an interesting book. It is your classic time travel book where people go back in time. The biggest twist in this one is a the young boy doesn't return with the others when they are rescued. He is left centuries before his time alone. He grows up to be an adult always hoping they will come back for him.

Am I ever excited to post about this book. This book is good for any level of reader. I personally like it because it is so funny and is a light read. I pick this up when I have a few minutes and read 5 or 10 pages. This can be easily done in about 10 minutes or less. The only thing I suggest is that you don't try anything in this book that you know would bug me in class. ;) There a total

I have decided to post about a book series that over the last few years has become my favorite series. The series is called The Rangers Apprentice. This book is middle aged themed mixed with just a bit of fantasy. Here is a brief summary obtained from http://www.rangersapprentice.com/Meet fifteen year old Will, a foundling who is convinced that his father died a mighty, warrior in battle. As

Ok guys I apologize for the hiatus I have taken from the book blog. It has been a crazy school year for me so far and is about to get even crazier. I just finished wrestling practices and now it is time to start basketball practices. I have decided that I can't let silly sports get in the way of silly reading. We all know that reading cool books about mythical creatures is a lot better than

I was quite excited to write this blog entry because The Lord of the Rings is one of my favorite book series. Many people read them because of the movies and that is great. I would bet that most enjoyed the series more than they did the movies. That is very common. Probably similar to The Eragon series. Everybody said the books were awesome and the movie was somewhat a letdown. I would

I still can't wait to get my hands on The Battle of the Labyrinth.  One of you guys who has it checked out needs to finish quick and turn it in. :-)If any of you, who have read it or are currently reading it, can give us a sneak peek with out giving anything away,  that would be awesome.I hope someone will tell something to think about until we can get our hand on it ourselves.  I hope you guys

Hey guys!  I just finished a new book.  The 13th Reality (The Journal of Curious Letters).  I told most of you that I was reading it.  I even gave a book talk in class about it, so there isn't a lot that I can say about it.  I will say that I really enjoyed all 400 pages of it.  The best part about it is it will be a series.  I can't wait for the next book.This book is about a boy in Jr. high

The Sisters Grimm was recommended by Aub, and I am glad she recommended it. I have seen quite a few of you reading it this year, and I have to say the cover alone has caused me to want to read it. I blew this image up large so that you could see the cover. It just screams, READ ME. I love the picture of the two kids running from the giant hand. I honestly wish that I had it right here with me

A certain student, who shall remain nameless (pineview penguin), has been begging me to read Kingdom Keepers for quite some time. I have not read it yet, but I intend to read it very soon. I will admit that I was not initially excited about this book, but now that I have read a few reviews, my interest has peeked.In this book 5 young teens working at Disney World find themselves pitted against

Hey guys! I received a comment earlier about a book that I should talk about. The book is called, The Candy Shop War, by Brandon Mull. I have not read this book, but I have met the author. I have heard nothing but good things about this book. I know about 5 students that are reading it. All of them have absolutely loved it so far, and they tell me it is addicting. Interesting since candy

Woohoo, I am really excited for next week. My favorite book series comes out with book #4. The series is called, Percy Jackson and the Olympians. Book #4 is called, Percy Jackson and The Battle of the Labyrinth. I have been waiting exactly 1 year for this book, and it has been a long and painful year. J/k I have been reading many other excellent series to keep me busy. Most of you

I thought that my first blog should be about reading. I started by listing the books that I have read during this school year. Well, I read most of them during this school year. There are a few that I read last year. I will have to say that many of these books have become some of my favorites. I will post later about some of them.I will be the first to admit I never read a complete book
