     American born Chinese 

Image result for american born chineseIf you want to know what this book is about you will half to read it yourself because how confusing it is.

I recommend this book to people who like funny books because some part of the book can be funny and I recommend this book to people that like comic books.

I would rate this book a 4 out of 5 because it was really good but at the same time kind of confusing.

The Odyssey

The Odyssey, one of the world's classics, is about the travels and troubles of Odysseus. Familiar with Greek mythology? You know who I'm talking about.
However, this book is called an epic poem for a reason. The poem itself is 485 pages long, and the plot is complicated. So I do not recommend this book to you unless you think you can handle it, because it is kind of a difficult read.
This book does have some language.


I rate this book 3.5 stars, just because it is a difficult read.

An address like no other

Image result for no fixed addressI read the book No Fixed Address by Susin Nielsen because it was a sliding glass door for me. Felix Knutsson has a love for a tv show called Who, What, Where, When. His mom Astrid is a good mom, sometimes, but she just can't seem to keep a job. When they move into a Westfalia van his mom tells him that under no circumstance can he tell anyone about their living situation. When he gets into the French only class he meets Winnie Wu. During this book, Felix not only learns a lot about himself but also about the world around him. Read the book to find out what happens to Felix, Astrid, Winnie, and their current situation. I would recommend this book to anyone who is reading the 2019-2020 DCF book list and to anyone who likes subtle suspense, and a good book.         

I would rate this book a 4.5 because it was a good book but it wasn't my favorite.

Isn't this a movie?

Everyday by David Levithan is a book about a kid named A. who wakes up in a different body every day. Sound familiar? Yep. It's also a movie! Anyway, A. falls in love with a girl named Rhiannon. Really good read.

Misunderstood Prince

This book was a very quick read for me, but I still enjoyed it. I don't normally read books about boys in dresses, but I also don't normally read graphic novels, so this book fit two categories for me. It is a really good story, and it's fantasy, so expect a happy ending.

I suggest this book to you if:
You enjoy reading fantasy and/or stories about princes or princesses

You like to read graphic novels




**FIVE STARS**

"Frances, will you make me another dress?"

Image result for the prince and the dressmaker
I just finished the book the prince and the dressmaker and I really liked it.  It is all about this dressmaker named Frances.  She makes a crazy dress for the prince's ball and everyone is horrified.  or so they thought.  When Frances gets fired by her boss, a butler comes by and says, Frances has a customer who wants to have Frances as their special dressmaker.  Frances's boss tries to get her back but she accepts the job.  It turns out the job is for someone very important... The prince!  the prince tells her that sometimes he likes to wear dresses.  So he asks her to make a special dress for miss marmalade beauty pageant.  Find out what happens next to Frances and Lady Crystallia. (the prince in disguise.)  I would give this book
If you like love stories and fun, artistic graphic novels, this book is for you!
