4 stars A remarkably written book with a powerful story. The book was oddly beautiful in its telling of such a dangerous, terrifying journey. There are many descriptions that are just so well-written. It still gets across the fear and disgust experienced by the characters, but also provides a positive, hopeful light in all the…

4 stars I went from having no idea that one of my favorite Disney Channel Original movies growing up was based on a book to being slightly obsessed with this series. Recently, I enjoyed reading the original picture book and was excited to see there was also a chapter book series. This is the second…

3 stars I received a free audiobook from the author. This was a great start to the series and I really enjoyed the premise. It was interesting to figure out the world setup as the story progressed. Good overall pacing with a lot going on. I am not a big fan of love triangles (or…

4 stars I received a copy from the publisher in exchange for an honest review. Drabble collections are a great way to squeeze a little reading into your day. I love the ease of reading 100-word stories and there are some spectacular ones in this collection. A nice variety of creepy stories that include Norse…

3 stars This is probably the most ridiculous of the series so far in terms of plans and plots, but it was quite enjoyable. These books are so weird, hilarious, and creative. They are great quick reads and are very unique. In this book, the first story details the gang’s strange experience at the medieval…

5 stars This audiobook was the perfect length for a recent car trip and definitely made the drive more enjoyable. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to this. It contains four speeches/essays/poems, all of which are beautifully-written, persuasive, and wonderful. The book was made even better by having Gaiman read it himself. There is something magical that…

I came across this book in the Little Free Library near my house and thought it looked like an interesting, quick read. I never really watched the show, but had a vague idea of its premise going in. This book was well-written. The descriptions were fun, interesting, and really helped the reader visualize what’s happening….

4 stars I loved the Disney channel Zenon movies growing up and had no idea they were based on a children’s book. I stumbled across this book at the library when searching the catalog to see if they had any of the movies (they don’t… sigh). This was a very cute book. The movie strays…

4 stars Another great story in the Black Lagoon series. I grew up reading the picture books and have started making my way through the chapter books as well. I love that these books use the same general story structure of the original series and extend the format into short chapter books. The simple writing…
