Savvy44xParticipantI've read… literally all of these books and they're some of my (thousands of) favourites! We're actually reading the Westing Game in Language right now! Here are some other good books…
The Book Theif- a bit hard to get through at times, but still really good
The Books of Elsewhere- easy to read, but not to short, mystery/adventure books in which a girl travels into a painting.
A Mango Shaped Space- a story about a girl with synesthesia and her cat.
One for the Murphys- a book about a foster kid. And other stuff.
The Unwanteds- decent length (almost 400 pages). About kids who are creative in a world where they want nothing of the sort. These kids are sent to die. Instead they go to a school of magic. Read it.
All Rick Riordan Books- do I really even need to say this….
Belly Up- a murder mystery in which the victim is Henry the hippo, the most famous hippo ever to live. 2 kids are the main characters, a boy and a girl, and they investigate, no matter how much they've been told not to. VERY GOOD. (Easy to read though)
Hunger Games- I feel like everyone cat prizes these as lovey dovey books, but let me just tell you this: they're not actually in love just pretending to get the public on their side. Full of action. Takes place in the future. But WARNING unless your favourite cherries is Katniss or Peeta, ALL YOUR FAVOURITE CHERRIES WILL DIE. So don't get to attached. Or do get attached and then come cry with me
Land of Stories- cliffhangers, loads of action and adventure, a bit of mystery and a lot of magic and fairy tales, but not in a pink girly 'everything is perfect' kind of way. Boy and girl main characters.
if you want to recommend for me, I like fantasy, mystery, and fiction. Mostly fantasy. Bye now!

Horse Spirit GirlParticipantSavvy, I also really like the Land of the Stories books!

Chicago, ILMe too! Land of Stories Rocks!
I recommend the Septimus Heap series, by Angie Sage. It's a fantasy (unfortunately, I would love to live there) world where there are Wizards and Witches, Princess and Ghosts. It's a really great series, and my friend that read it after I did said it was better than Harry Potter!

SFI love the Land of Stories Series! They are so good. I also love Echo and Mysterious Bendict Society. Has anyone read the Young Royals series by Caroline Mayer? They're really good books about real historical princesses.

Chicago,ILI read the Cleopatra book! It was pretty good.

DragonriderParticipantYou have to read "Escape from Mr. Lemoncello's Library" by Chris Grabenstein (and maybe James Patterson). It's my favorite book. There is also a sequel that just came out, which is called "Mr. Lemoncello's Library Olympics," and another book with different characters called "The Island of Dr. Libris." They are SO GOOD!
I also recommend the Willow Falls Series, by Wendy Mass. They're AMAZING!
-
hotairballoonParticipantEscape from Mr. Limoncello's Library is really good, although I haven't read the other two. I love books like that. It's sort of "interactive," like you're trying to solve the puzzles and figure out the mystery with the characters.
If you liked that one, I highly recommend The Puzzling World of Winston Breen by Eric Berlin, and the sequel, The Potato Chip Puzzles. Lots of puzzles, if you couldn't tell by the name.

Chicago,ILI read Mr. Lemoncello's Library and The Island of Dr. Libris! I liked Mr. Lemocello's Library a little more, but they are both really good. I thoght I read all of Wendy Mass's books! She's an awesome writer. What's Willow Falls about?
I reccomend Cornelia and the Audicious Escapades of the Somerset Sisters if you like Adventure stories.

DragonriderParticipant@Bibliophile- The Willow Falls books are 11 Birthdays, 12 Finally, 13 gifts, The Last Present, and Graceful. I'm not completely sure if it's called the Willow Falls Series, but I've heard it referred to as that. 11 birthdays is about 2 kids named Amanda and Leo who have the same birthday. On their 11th birthday, they have an argument which triggers some sort of magic, and their day keeps repeating. They have to figure out how to fix it so that they don't get stuck repeating the same day over and over and over. The rest of the books are all about birthdays and magic and a strange old lady named Angelina D'Angelo.
