Bell

Belle
By: Cameron Dokey

This book is a retelling of Beauty and the Beast that I enjoyed. It has the same mane plot with a few cute and romantic twists. The charictors develop and change slightly during the book. If you like old fairytales told a new way you will like this book.

P.S. This is my very most favorite book!!!

Folow up Hunger Games with the sequal Catching Fire!!!
The third book is comming soon, in August.

~My opinion of this book: I loved it! This book had a really engaging plot that was very easy to get lost in. But, my sister, from the bibliophile book blog, didn't like this book for reasons that you can ask her... I like the charictors from this book because they seem to have real emotions(or more than other books.) I would love to talk about this book with anyone interested...Post!

The Thief


By: Megan Whalen Turner

This book is about a thief (didn't see that coming!) that is named Eugenides. He has fallen into the King's prison for stealing his seal ring. Eugenides, or Gen for short, would always say that he could steal anything. To put his theory to test, the kings magus takes Gen on an Adventure to steal something that nobody has. People have attempted to steal Hamiathies Gift, but nobody has succeded, not only that, but nobody has returned... Will Gen be able to steal it? Find out by reading The Thief.

Follow up Thief with the sequal The Queen of Attolia.
~My opinion on this book: I liked it... but it is kindof hard to get "in to." I also liked it because it made me feel smart because you fad to figure stuff out for yourself... I really like the clever but mysterious charactors! I love Engenides' cleverness and how great of a suprise ending it has! I'd seriously recomend this book espesially because you wouldn't really get the next book if you didn't read it and the next book is even better than the first and it suprises you at the end too! But The King of Attolia is even better than the Queen! I can't wait to get my hands onto The Conspiracy of Kings!!!

-Lynzee- Note to self... I am still not very happy with the turn out of my reviews!!!
