Junior High Way Book Reviews

Revised January 2009


Title: Bras and Broomsticks

Author:  Sarah Mlynowski

Rating:  Awesome

Reviewer: Rachel, 13

 

I absolutely loved this book because it deals with the average teenage girl trying to become popular and get a boyfriend.  Only one twist; her sister is a witch and she can cast spells to make things happen.

Title: Forest of Secrets: Warriors, #3

Author:  Erin Hunter

Rating:  Awesome

Reviewer: Yunus, 11

 

It has a lot of adventure and has a lot of detail.  The book is, also, like a mystery in some parts of it.  The book shows a lot of emotion and is very interesting.

Title: Four Things My Geeky-Jock-of-a-Best-Friend Must Do in Europe

Author: Jane Harrington

Rating:  Awesome

Reviewer: Elizabeth, 13

 

This book was very funny and was unpredictable. While I was reading this book I could not stop laughing. It is mostly about a friend embarrassing you a lot which many can relate to. I thought that this was a great book.

Title: Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix

Author: J. K. Rowling

Rating:  Awesome

Reviewer: A.J., 13

 

It just wasn't her best book of the series. I think that the suspense was at a lack and the actions were a little lousy, but overall, it was a fantastic book.

Title: Walk Two Moons

Author: Sharon Creech

Rating:  Awesome

Reviewer: Hayley, 13

 

This was a great book. Sharon Creech is a great author. I love all of her books. It's a story of a girl who tells her friends a story and in a way, she reveals her own story, too. This book shows that family is important.

Stake outs and spying are two of my favorite things to read about. This book has both.
