Student Book Review - The Hero's Guide to Being an Outlaw

The Hero’s Guide to Being an Outlaw

As you know, in my last review on The Hero’s Guide to storming the Castle I mentioned that there was a jewel, a mysterious one which could control a person’s mind and body and it ended up in the wrong hands, the most evil and horrifying ruler of Dar, Lord Rundark.

This time the story starts when Posters are pasted all over the thirteen kingdoms saying that Princess Briar has been murdered and the League of Princes and including Ella, Lilia, Snow White and Rapunzel have been taken the blame for this incident. To clear their name they start acting like heroes for other people. They soon find out that Briar’s murder was actually a plan for villains ruled by Rundark, to rule the thirteen kingdoms. Briar is not dead. Along the way, Bounty Hunters are plastered all over the kingdoms to capture the Prince and Princesses. At one point the gang all gets captured accept for Snow White, Duncan, Liam and Ella. It’s up to them to save their friends and clear their name. Unfortunately the princes manage to get free but in the meantime the princesses get trapped including Ella. Meanwhile in jail, the princesses spend quality time alongside bread thief Val Jeanval, until they plan to break free from jail. The princes go through ups and downs, and get rescued by bounty hunters that are the ones who were hired to capture Briar in the first place in exchange for their reward.

The character that I like and alike to me is Ella. Ella is full of energy and willing to lend a hand to anybody who needs one. I’m very similar to her and when there is a request I always try to succeed it. This book was just like all the books in the series and as the final book I give it a thumbs up. When I read this book I just couldn’t stop because from the first page the drama starts and from the last page it ends.

I would give this book a rating of 5 stars (*****/*****) because as I would expect from the last book is a good ending where all evil becomes good or vanished and everything will go back to normal. I’m pretty sad that the series has ended but overall I leaned good lessons in life and teamwork. J

Student Book Reviews - The Sea of Monsters

The sea of monsters

I liked the book because it was about Ancient Greek. This is the 2nd book of the Percy Jackson series. Last day of school and Percy is still not suspended. He hoped he wouldn’t get suspended on his last day. He woke up and got ready to go to his friend’s house to go to school together. After class started, the teacher thought it would be a good idea to leave the kids without any supervision. Well, she thought wrong because the bully started bullying everyone who wasn’t his friend. Then the bell rang and they had to go to gym class, so the bully asked to lead a team in dodgeball while Percy leads the other. The bully had all the strong and popular kids on his side. Percy had his friend and all the geeks and nerds on his side. The game started and then the players on the bullys team started to grow and get stronger until they turned into giant monsters. The monsters tried to kill Percy and his team but his friend Tyson managed to defeat them all and then there was a trail of fire left behind which the bully blamed Percy for and told a made up story. Percy’s appears out of nowhere and comes to help him get to camp together. Percy then finds out the magical borders of camp are getting weaker because someone poisoned it. My favourite part is when Percy’s friend defeated all the giant monsters. The movie is a lot more different then the book. This book and other books in the series are about saving the Western Civilization. I gave 5 as a rating because I like ancient mythology.

Student Book Review - Dork Diaries

Dork Diaries: Tales From a Not-So-Happy Heartbreaker
By: Rachel Renée Russell

 Have you ever had trouble with someone because you got the wrong idea about what's been happening and what they have been doing? Well in this great book things turn sour for Nikki Maxwell because of some misunderstandings. In this wonderful story Nikki goes through the issues of getting ready to go to the biggest dance of the year: The Sweetheart Dance. It all starts with everything going well, Brandon(her crush) invited Nikki to Crazy Burger and things are going as usual at school. Just when it seems that everything is too good to be true things take a turn for the worst and the plans Nikki's and Brandon's were canceled, embarrassing posters of Nikki freaking out were posted all over the school by someone, Nikki might just fail gym and Nikki is convince Brandon has absolutely no feelings for her. Will Nikki gather the courage to tell Brandon how she feels and ask him to go with her to the  sweetheart dance?

 I can relate to how Nikki feels when Brianna her little sister embarrasses and causes trouble for her but ends up helping her find a solution because my younger sibling causes me a lot of trouble but at the end of the day she help me a lot. I think this book is great just like the others in the series. I would rate this book five stars because it makes me laugh and it makes me eager to read the whole series.
