The Maze Runner 3. The Death Cure. Movie Tie-In

The Maze Runner 3. The Death Cure. Movie Tie-In

By James Dashner

The Death Cure is the final book in the maze runner series and it is a must read! The book continues the story where Thomas feels even more betrayed and hurt by everyone, causing all the Gladers and the rest of the group to rebel and leave WCKD. As Thomas, Jorge, Brenda, and Minho try to search for the Right Arm, the rest of the world is crumbling and everyone they know are beginning to fall apart and die. One of my favorite scenes in this book is when Newt begs Thomas for his death because he didn't want to be an insane crank. Although Thomas refuses to kill him at first, he eventually ends Newt's life and make amends. I love this scene because there are tons of emotions of how he loses his friend, the guilt, and how miserable and confused Thomas is. I really like Teresa because she's brave, mysterious, and has always cared for Thomas since she first met him. Before the Immunes escape, she saved Thomas life and died in his place, stating that she is sorry and she only cared for him. Overall, I think this book is just amazing and is full of adventures, emotions, and lessons about friendship.

Starry River of the Sky

Starry River of the Sky

By Grace Lin

“Starry River of the Sky” by Grace Lin is an amazing book. There are plenty of interesting Chinese stories and loving characters that you sympathize for. The story begins with a boy named Rendi arriving in the village of Clear Sky in a merchant’s dusty cart. Oddly, his only possessions are a cloth bag and beautiful porcelain rice bowl. However, when the merchant is giving a gang of wine to an innkeeper in the village, Rendi is discovered and thrown out of the cart. The innkeeper sees this and asks if Rendi wants a job, to help with chores around the inn. Rendi sees no other choice but to accept and helps him push the gang of wine inside the inn. After that, he meets the innkeeper (Master Chao’s) daughter, Peiyi. He arrives in a time where adults have to drink wine and little kids have to paint the 王 symbol on their heads to protect them from the Noxious Animals, because it is the Day of Five Poisons. Peiyi shows him around the inn and tells him about the Stone Pancake, which is a huge stone field stretching out into the horizon, seeming to never end. Peiyi tells him it is there because her ancestor moved a mountain that was once on the Stone Pancake. Rendi scoffs and tells her that is impossible. They dislike each other strongly. Later in the story we discover three more characters, under the name of Madame Chang, Mr. Shan, and the toad. We also find out more about Rendi’s backstory, and why the stone pancake ACTUALLY means, along with heart wrenching plot twists that will tear your heart. You will gasp along with the characters, shout with them, cry with them, laugh with them. I loved this book and I hope you did too.

Fantastic Beasts: The Crimes of Grindelwald ― The Original Screenplay

By J.K. Rowling

Inkspell

Inkspell

By Cornelia Funke

Inkspell, the story that takes place a year after the events of Inkheart, where Dustfinger returns to the Inkheart after a storyteller brought him in there, leaving his friend Farid. Meggie somehow gets in this situation and the adventures begin. The storytelling is great and the plot flows smoothly and it was really a page-turner for me, giving this book 5 stars. The characters actions relates to me on a personal level. I recommend this book for middle school and higher who love fantasy and adventure in their books (after you read the first book).

A Year Down Yonder

A Year Down Yonder

undefined

Mary Alice, age 15, feels very sorry for herself when she is put on a train by her parents (because they need to get a smaller house where there is no room for her) during the economic slump after "The Great War" (WW1), to live with her grandma (a woman known for being very active and having a gun) in a small town where everyone knows everything. I would recommend this book to age ten and up because it has some parts that are better for older kids (A painter tries to paint the post lady while she has not clothes on, and then a snake falls on her because the painter's studio is in the attic, and the post lady runs back to the post office screaming without her clothes on, and there is also a tiny bit of romance).

The Thief Lord

The Thief Lord

By Cornelia Funke

I think this is a awesome and very interesting book. The character are special and how they interact with each others, also the relationships between them make me feel alive. When I was reading the story, I feel nervous when Victor almost got them, I feel funny when they joke and get angry at each other, I feel differently. The story is very cool and as I was reading it, I feel like the characters are coming alive. After reading this story, it really reminds me of me and my best friends. When I was small, I always imagine and wanted to have a group of friends that forms a team that is very famous and powerful.

Dragon Rider

Dragon Rider

By Cornelia Funke

Because I love DRAGONS! So in this story it's almost all about mythical creatures and some made up ones! So a dragon named Firedrake has to leave his home to find the Rim Of Heavens for him and the rest of the dragons to live, so you think Firedrake is all alone right? Wrong! Firedrake is taking his best friend, a brownie girl named Sorrel and now later on in the story, they find a human boy named Ben and takes him along too. Now they don't know that there is a dragon named Nettlebrand he cant fly but he hunts silver dragons! So a gnome tells Nettlebrand and he makes his little servant named Twigleg go after them and find out where they are going! So Firedarke, Sorrel, and Ben don't know this so they found Twigleg and brought him along for the journey! We better hope them luck!

Inkdeath (Inkheart Trilogy)

Inkdeath (Inkheart Trilogy)

By Cornelia Funke

An AMAZING book! I love the trilogy, and I find it sad that people have not seen this in so long, and like wiccanbat666, they find that they cannot finish the book because of the time in their schedule. I hope others can find time for this, and truly appreciate this author's work. Support Ms. Funke!

Inkheart

Inkheart

By Cornelia Funke

This book was probably the most creative novel I have ever read! The fact that Cornelia Funke can include so many different characters, each with diverse backstories, but all tied together in some small way in the story. Even if most of it is trying to escape Capricorn, I loved it. The characters are so amazingly realistic, it's as if I'm really living the story! Thank you for reading my review and please follow me, blackbird_skye, on iDOGO. Thanks!
