The Island of Dr. Libris

By Chris Grabenstein
      This book was a short and fun read. It is about a kid named Billy who is spending the summer in a cabin that they were renting. It was in the middle of no where and he did not have anything fun to do, like video games. After getting board he goes to the library and finds a clue to the key that unlocks the book cases. After getting a book and starting to read it, he hears the story that he is reading, happening outside. After checking it out, he thinks that he sees the giant in his book on the island, After getting curious he uses a boat to get to the island and check it out. He sees the story he was reading early taking place. This book is about how he deals with it and how others react to it. This author also wrote Mr. Limencello's Library.

Maximum Ride

By James Patterson
       This book was recommended to me by Sam and Noah. It is not a book I would usually read but it because I thought it was going to be a fantasy type of book. After a little bit of reading I realized it was more of a science fiction type of book. While this book looks pretty long, the font is big and it was a very quick read for me. It is about a couple of kids who had escaped from a lab where they were tested on and eventually given wings so they could fly. Another group of kids who were from the same lab had found them and came to take them back to the lab. After only successfully kidnapping one of the kids, they come up with a plan to rescue her and this is the story of how it happened.
