Rate It: 5/5
Review It: AMAZING! It's full of suspense, mystery, and romance. Everything needed to make a good book.
Title: Messenger
Author: Lois Lowry
Rate It: 5 out of 5
Review It: An exciting book! The descriptions are so real that they seem to leap off the pages and engulf the reader! Reading about the different "jobs" was very entertaining; Lowry seems to have a natural hand at writing fictional fantasy.
Title: Never Cry Wolf
Author: Farley Mowat
Rate It: 4.5 out of 5
Review It: A marvelous book to enjoy. Farley Mowat's descriptions of his adventures with the wolves open readers' eyes to the little-known world of the wolves in Canada. With minor jokes here and there, Mowat's storytelling is a wonder to behold.
Title: Runaway (An Airhead Novel)
Author: Meg Cabot
Rate It: 4/5
Review It: The third book in the Airhead series. Good book, definitely recommend =)
