This book is the sequel to The Lightning Thief. It’s the last day of 7th grade, and Percy Jackson is about to make it through the school year without getting expelled until he is attacked by cannibals in gym class. To escape his friend, Tyson, whom Percy thought was mortal, caught fireballs and distracted them long enough for Percy to escape with Annabeth and meet them. When Percy finally looks Tyson in the eyes, he realizes that Tyson is a cyclops. They go back to camp and see that its borders have been poisoned. To save it they go on a quest for the golden fleece. There is a very surprising ending, but it’s really a new beginning. [hopiemopie]
The Sea of Monsters
May 27, 2010 — falconmediaFrostbite
May 25, 2010 — falconmediaThis book is really great. It is just as great — if not better than — the Twilight Saga. And that says a lot. Rose Hathaway is a dhampir/ guardian in training. This means she is half vampire and is training to guard her best friend, Lissa Dragomir, when she is older. Rose is fierce, fun, and in love with her instructor, which everybody knows is forbidden. She has to face death, love, and friendship. The book takes place while the school is on a skiing trip.
There is so much going on: love, death, friendship, and the petty high school dislikes of people. It’s the second installment in the Vampire Academy series. It’s also my favorite series. [The SpaceCowboy]
The Last Olympian
April 29, 2010 — falconmedia
This is my all time fav PJackson book. I think it has had one of the best book wars ever. Usually, wars in other books are unrealistic and stupid, but this is better. Anyway, this is about Percy and his friends teaming up with the rest of camp to fight the evil Titan Kronos. Can they do it?
Other than that, the storyline is pretty predictable but is fun to read. Overall, this is a nice series to read for fun. It’s nice and short, too. [DarkFaerie]
The Battle of the Labyrinth
April 29, 2010 — falconmedia
So far, this is my all time fav Percy Jackson book. It actually had some new, intense parts.
In this book, Percy journeys with Grover, Annabeth, and Tyson in search of the great mastermind Daedalus. With his help, Camp Half-Blood might actually have a chance against the rising Kronos’ army. Creepy … [DarkFaerie]
The Titan’s Curse
April 29, 2010 — falconmedia
Percy joins his friends on a quest to save Annabeth and the goddess Artemis. They fight skeletons, gods, and a boar? What else could go wrong?
So far, this is the most unique book in the Percy Jackson series. There’s still no real new aspect of fantasy from this book. It’s still enjoyable though. [DarkFaerie]
The Lightning Thief
April 19, 2010 — falconmedia
A lot of people influenced me to read this book, so I did. Let me say that I really didn’t like it. It was fun to read, ’cause reading is fun, but I felt that it was a complete copy of Harry Potter. There will never be a book as great. As I read this book, I found the same elements I’ve found in all fantasies. Sure, there are some similarities, but there wasn’t anything new or interesting about this book. It’s fun to read, but it will never make it to the top. Sorry, Percy Jackson fans! [DarkFaerie]
Elsewhere
March 15, 2010 — falconmedia
This book is amazing. It’s about a girl, Liz, who dies and is sent to Elsewhere. She finds a new lifestyle and meets other dead relatives. Also, in Elsewhere everyone ages backwards. Read to figure out how Elsewhere works and all the little tricks about it. Everyone should read this book!! [shopcutie517]

Wicked Lovely
January 8, 2010 — falconmedia
This book is the best!! The main character – Aislinn – has the ability to see the fey-faeries. She has to live by the rules. They can’t know that she can see them.

Wish List
December 16, 2009 — falconmedia

The Anybodies
December 11, 2009 — falconmedia
Fern Drudger knew she didn’t belong here, not one bit. She knew she came from a different family because she was nothing like Mr. and Mrs. Drudger. They were boring people who only talked about organizing papers and well-kept lawns. She knew she was special – but why? [berryice 2345]
The Fire Within
December 10, 2009 — falconmedia
This book is about a college student named David, who’s renting a room in the house of two strange people. The first is Lucy, a young girl with an obsession with squirrels. The second is her mother, who makes pottery dragons for a living, yet … doesn’t have a kiln. This story follows them and their many adventures.
This book was okay, not the best I’ve read, and the cover is deceiving, you think it’ll be purely about dragons, but it’s not. Kind of a disappointment. I give it two and a half stars. [Fullmetal]

December 2, 2009 — falconmedia

Inkheart
December 1, 2009 — falconmedia
This is an amazing book filled with sadness, adventure, and grief. It is about a man (called Mo) and his daughter Meggie. They go on an adventure that changes the country. Mo is what some people call a silvertongue. This means that when he reads a certain way, beings from the book come to our world and something or someone from our world goes into the book. It’s one book you’ll surely want to read. When you start you won’t be able to put it down. Happy reading! [HopieMopie]
