The Land Of Stories: A Grimm Warning
This is the 3rd book in the series “Land of
Stories”. This book is one of my favorite
books in the series since this is when
things start to drastically change for the
main characters in the book. The first two
books' main purposes are to set the scene
and enable the reader to emerge into the
world of the stories. This book is what
starts to set the theme for how the rest of
The Land of Stories: Wishing Spell is a book about
two twin siblings who get stuck in the book of
fairytales provided by their grandmother. The
book takes us through their journey as they
explore the new world and face completely unknown
dangers of the book. I highly recommend this book
for young kids, especially those in middle school
since that is the age of the characters in the
book. Personally, this is one of my favorite
A beautiful story, The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue by V.E. Schwab takes you away to a new
world--one where a girl named Addie makes a deal with the “devil”. The book takes you on an
adventure as Addie tells her story of how she lives to hundreds of years old, experiencing wars,

Divergent is the perfect first novel for this series.
I can't believe I waited so long to read this teenage romance. This is a fantastic high fantasy about a teenage girl, but you can tell this is the author's debut book. I have confidence Osterlund will do wonderful things with the rest of this trilogy. I had a great time reading the fast-paced story.

I adore the character Aurelia. She is the type of woman of steel I always imagined a princess would be. Her blended family situation came across cleanly, with just a little violence.
