This was one of the very first Fantasy series I ever read, and it helped to get me hooked. Definitely recommended.

This was just an awesome story. Serious and laughable all at once, slightly angst-y and yet philosophical, in the way only John Green seems to be.

For any fan of the Abhorsen trilgy, these stories are worth a read. Not quite as full or exciting as the books, but an interesting look at life down the line.

This was one cool story! Not only is the gang finally getting some real pirate lessons, the mysterious ghost ship appears only to them--leaving it as their job to save the day, even if Rotten Tooth doesn't believe them.

I didn't like the style of this book at all. I'm not super fond of the characters either. But by page 50 or so the story picks up, and it does keep you turning pages from then on.

A compelling sequel. Full of suspense and even more mystery than its predecessor. Very enjoyable read.

I really liked this book, unlike other members of my household. I thought it was a great read. And the ambigrams were awesome. I made some wicked shirts with those :)

Great book. Everyone should own it. (and read it)

Not the world's easiest read, but a great one. Tessa has a list of things she'd like to do before she dies, and she doesn't plan to let anyone/thing get in her way.

Echo Falls is a great series. One of the most enjoyable books I've read in awhile. Ingrid Levin-Hill is a really fun character, and her exploits are always enjoyable to follow. I don't usually take to mysteries, but I wouldn't want to miss one of these.

Really cute story about life in a world that's not native to you. Beige feels just that, when transplanted from Montreal to southern California, but she learns a lot about herself in that foreign land.

Alexa's adventure continues, with even more action and surprise.

This is definitely a series where you need to read the first book, but if you have, this installment should keep you wanting to know how it ends.

Very creative take on vampires/vampirism. This is another beginning that will leave you eager to see where its headed next.

Major kudos to Barry for writing this book and writing it so extraordinarily well. It's not an easy subject, but it's an easy read.

My mother had me read this because she wanted to know how much of the technology was real or accurate. Really good read. And disconcerting.

In the beginning the style change was distracting, but once I got past that I flew through the book. Definitely Odd's most complex adventure. And it seems to lead right into the option for a fourth, so that's exciting.

Great book. Any Odd or Koontz fan should be highly pleased.

This is a really, really great look into using XHTML and CSS to future-proof your sites, and to make them as flexible as possible so that they can handle whatever unexpected something that might get thrown at them.

I got this just because I thought Wasted was such an excellent book and was glad that Marya was around to write another.

Definitely a good buy. This is a really well written book, and a rather unusual story.

Great addition to the series. Lots of fun to read.

While the writing drove me nuts on occasion, the story was good, and at the end I was really glad I had read it.

Really sweet story about a girl who dreams of being a pianist and ends up with an organ instead. Her music helps to heal her famiy, and to bring joy to a classmate she didn't even realize needed it.

Pete, Inna, Gery, Vicky and Aaron have all come to crew the Sea Rat in order to take part in the Pirate School Captain Stinky Beard wants to begin. They don't seem to be learning much piratey stuff, but they're a resourceful little group, in constant search of ways to change that. In this case...it' ... (continue)

I can't actually remember much in vivid detail about this book anymore, since it was so long ago, but I do recall quite liking and thinking she did a very good job with the story.

I really liked this book. I thought it was a great read. Made me go back and check out its predecessor too.

This was a really great story. DJ, at 15, has taken over the family farm, which has made being a teen just that much more difficult. Especially when the rival QB shows up in her driveway.

Intriguing story. One of the more mysterious fantasies I've read. Main character is quite spunky. Looking forward to the next one.

I first met Dexter via TV, and was curious to see how much the book would differ. I think that the book fans will still love the show, and the show fans will likely love the books. Of course to us, Dexter is going to already be in our heads, and the TV version can sometimes seem a little cooler, but ... (continue)

An unconventional take on the vampire story. Quick read, good story, full of laughs alongside the mystery.

Ben Wolf gets about the worst news you can get at his annual physical, but takes it in stride, and gets on with his life. Only trying to have a normal year when nothing about it is normal proves more difficult than he had planned.

This one is not for the faint of heart...the bad guy in this installment is a bit more gruesome. But it makes for a compelling story that's for sure!

Really great look at steps you can take to disaster-proof your site. Make errors friendly, make forms less intimidating and more helpful, etc. This was a really quick read. Full of great tips, and humor too.

The first time I tried to read this book I couldn't get into it. After DaVinci Code and A&D I went back and read it, and I loved it.

Brian James is one of my favorite authors, and with each book he just gets better. This is his best yet. My review can be found here: http://goshenpubliclibrary.org/jaemi2.html#dirtyliar

Another cute story of the craziness that is Eddie Dickens' life.
