I have read many good books, but one that really stood out was Percy Jackson. In 4th grade, we read it for school and it was really good so I read the whole series 2 times. I think Percy Jackson was the best book I have ever read.
The War that Saved My Life is about a young girl named Ada who is living in London during the time of Hitler. She has a normal life other than her foot, which her Mam says is the ugliest thing she's ever seen. Since there were rumors of Hitler thinking about bombing her town, Ada and her little brother Jamie decide to flee their awful home and go to safety where a kind woman named Susan Smith takes care of them. Ada also has a love for horses which can take her on many adventures since Miss Smith has a horse named Butter. They have had many adventures so far and definitely more to come. Our group would recommend this book to anyone who likes to learn a little history or just want a good, interesting book to read.
"The Scythe" is a very intense and intricately written book with different plot twists in every chapter. Unfortunately, there has yet to be some character development in the two main characters, Citra and Rowan, for they have stayed the same since the beginning of the book. The book is very good at grabbing the reader's attention and some may find it hard to put down the book once they start. We would recommend this book to everyone who's interested in a story that has a nice blend of action, adventure, and romance.
"Scythe" was an intriguing and very heart-warming book. It left a cliffhanger at the end of each chapter and continued to make me want to read on. The character development in the story is phenomenal and I would recommend it to anyone who enjoys a blend of romance and action. Out of five stars, I'd give it four for the plot and storyline, but the story got dull at some parts and seemed to just drag on. Good job, Neal Shusterman!
