Behind the Rebel Lines

Again, I do not usually enjoy historical fiction. But this was one of the BEST books I have EVER read, and I read a lot. This was about Emma Edmonds, a lady, who would like to be able to help her own country. Emma pretends to be a man and enters the army, not knowing that she will become one of the best Civil War spies ever. Emma has a number of disguises, and uses different ones every time she has to get into a Confederate Camp, to learn their battle strategy.
Emma faces many, many challenges, and this is a very entertaining book. I give it 11 out of 10 stars.

Ashes of Roses

WOW this was an AWESOME BOOK!!! I, Jellybeans, do not usually enjoy reading historical fiction, but this was different. This was one of the best books I have ever read.

Ashes of Roses, by Mary Jane Auch, is about a girl named Rose and her family, from Ireland, trying to immigrate to America. While on Ellis Island, Rose's little brother Joseph and her father must go back to Ireland. Rose, her mother, and 2 sisters must go to stay at their Uncle Patrick's house, with his snooty wife and children. When things are not going very well, Rose's family decides to go back to where they came from. Rose does not want to though, so she convinces her mother to let her stay, with her little sister Maureen, and they meet headstrong Gussie, who works at the Triangle Shirtwaist factory, and helps Maureen and Rose get jobs. But when a fire takes over the building, Rose and her friends must fight for their lives.

So will they live?

P.S. If you say that the main characters never die, you might want to rethink that.

Physik

Septimus Heap book number three was AWESOME!!!

I just finished reading this and it was suspenseful, funny, and a tad confusing.

Silas Heap, Septimus's father, UNSEALS a room, with an enchanted portrait of a queen and her pet 500 years ago. The Portrait is enchanted with the ghost of a horrible Queen 500 years ago.
QUEEN ETHELDREDDA is out to get Jenna, and kill her!
Her horrible pet, has been going around and spreading the Sickness, that keeps on killing people.
Etheldredda is also out to kill Septimus, or at least make him disappear.
And that happens all right. Septimus fell through a looking glass, and now is trapped in time 500 YEARS AGO!
Will Jenna, Alther the ghost, Marcia the ExtraOrdinary Wizard and Spit Fyre the dragon ever rescue Septimus, or will Septimus just be stuck forever?
And what about the dreadful Etheldredda? What happens to her?
FIGURE IT OUT!!!

Flyte

Flyte is the sequel to Magyk. I think that if was better than Magyk, but I did not think that that was possible! This book is about a kidnapped Princess, (kidnapped by her own brother) *gasp* and her other two borthers Septimus and Nicko trying to rescue her. Her brother had turned evil... and I am talking I-am-now-a-dark-wizard-I-can-blow-up-whatever-I-want evil. He is EVIL. Will the young Princess, Jenna, ever be rescued? Check this amazing book out.

MAGYK

WOW this was like the BEST book EVER!!! I read it because the title and cover caught my eye. This WONDERFUL book is about a family of nine, Mother, Father, 6 boys, and an adopted girl named Jenna. Only the mother and father know her true identity... a Princess. Jenna had been searched for for years, and know, on her 10th birthday, she is found. Hunters try to kill her, only is necessary, and try to capture her. She escapes, but is separated from her mother, and 5 of her brothers. Silas(father), Marcia, an Extraordinary Wizard, Nicko, and Jenna try to escape and pick up a mysterious boy on the way, from the Young Army. His name is Boy 412, but who is he really? You want answers? Read it then! There are 5 books in the series. The first is Magyk, second Flyte, third Physik, fourth Queste, fifth Syren. I hope these will all be just as great as Magyk.

Dolphin Song

I just finished reading Dolphin Song, the sequel to White Giraffe. The White Giraffe was one of the BEST book I have ever read, and Dolphin Song was not as good as that. Dolphin Song is about Martine having to go on a Sardine Run trip with her class and have to go into the water. She does not like going into water because of dreams. During a horrible storm, Martine and some other classmates get thrown overboard, but are rescued by dolphins. They dolphins take them to a small island, where Martine and the others must find wayts to live off of the land... And Martine's survival kit.
If you want to know if they get rescued, read this!!!

11 Birthdays

I, Jellybeans, just thought that this was a fabulous book. It had some odd twists to it, and was very interesting. I literally did not put the book down until I finished it. This is about two best friends, who had been friends since birth really, and after Amanda overhears Leo (the two best friends) saying some really mean things about her on their 10th birthday, things change forever.
Now it is their 11th birthday, and both of them are stuck in an endless loop of that day. This book is by Wendy Mass, also the author of the Twice Upon a Time series. READ IT PLEASE!!!
