Northanger Alibi

Northanger Alibi Jenni James. Northanger alibi is a modern day version of Jane Austen's novel 'Northanger Abbey' with a twist of Twilight mixed into it..

 Northanger Alibi is about a girl named Claire. She is super excited when her family friends invite her to come to Washington with them, because that is where her favorite book 'Twilight' takes place.
 When she finds out that she has to hang out with some random kids she is kind of rethinking the whole vacation, but decides that it is a once in a lifetime trip. When she gets to Washington, she meets the teens, she is shocked at how much the boy, Tony reminds her of Edward. When she meets a new guy at the mall she is convinced that he is a werewolf. He is from the same Native American tribe as Jacob and his last name is Black. So now she is convinced that her life is a real living version of Twilight. She knows something is up with Tony because he acts like he is hiding something. He also says he can not tell her what the secret is, so she is positive he is a vampire! But then something unexpected happened...

I really liked this book! It was a really fun, easy, and it was a really interesting story! I had a hard time putting it down, and when I did put it down I was thinking about it the rest of the day. I really recommend this book to anyone who likes to read funny novels with a twist in it!

The Son of Neptune

This book was a fun read it has a lot of action in it, it would qualify under the adventure genre because this book was a bout them going on a quest. This book was the newest book in the Percy Jackson. series. The main characters in this book are Percy Jackson, Nico Di Angelo and Hazel Levauseque. If you like a book with a lot of action and adventure this would be a good book to read. If ancient Roman and Greek civilizations fascinate you this would also be a good book for you. This book takes place mostly in Alaska. They are there to retrieve a staff that has been lost for centuries. This book is all about them trying to retrieve the staff and their battles along the way. They run into many difficulties a long the way read the book to find out all about there adventures. This book will kep you on your toes the whole time you read it when you set it down all you do is wonder what is going to happen next if you don't want to fall asleep while reading I would reccomend this book to you.

Seeds of Hope

Seeds of hope is a very interesting story about two young girls who plan to go to Oregon to start over on life and just have a new beginning. However, plans change. Their father decides to change destinations on where they are going. He starts to get gold rush fever. Along with everybody else. So the family stops their journey to Oregon short. The two girls and their father start to start to start an unexpected life in a different land than originally planned. They have to learn and trust one another to succeed in this change of plans. I would really recommend this certain book for those people who enjoy historical fictions. It is also a diary so if you like those two topics you would enjoy this book. I normally do not like historical fictions, but this book was actually pretty neat I thought. In the book it says "I was amazed at the power of that one word, gold." In this book that quote is really true. All it takes is that one little word and everybody and everything is silent to find out where that gold is. They have gold fever.

The theme of this book was great. It explained a life lesson. You should make the best out of everything. Even if plans change (or something like that,) it's not the end of the world. Be optimistic about it. That's the best way to deal with anything. That is what I think the theme of this book is. It was great!!

Chains

The year is 1774 and while the king is in England living off the taxes of innocent people and a piping hot bowl of greed, only a handful of people are loyal to him and agree with what he is doing. Those people are known as the loyalists. The other ninety nine handfuls are against the things he has done and how they have treated them. The group of ninety nine handfuls have formed a strong union, the revolutionary rebels. But unfortunately the Americans are up nose to nose against the most powerful army in the world. The war will change American history forever. But for now it is up to Isabel to transfer vital information to the rebels by spying on her loyalist owners.

It definitely was not my favorite book.  I do not like to read historical fiction books, simply because they do not interest me. However I will say that out of all the books in that genre, that I have read, Chains was definatly my favorite  I really liked the characters in the book and the message that it was trying to get across. The message that I recieved was that you should treat people as you would want to be treated because they are just as capable as you. The message might also be to give everyone a chance and see what their worth is. Because what they can do might surprise you.
