The Sorceress by Michael Scott

The third book from the series, Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel, shows more of Perenelle Flamel, as she is trapped on Alcatraz with monsters, the Crow Goddess, and the power-draining Sphinx, meanwhile Nicholas, Josh, and Sophie are in England, Dee's land.

This book is in my opinion the best in the series, the charactures are wonderful and the story is amazing. Michel Scott is a genius.

INKDEATH by Cornelia Funke

Among the Betrayed by Margaret Peterson Haddix

Among the Betrayed is about Nina, who is captured by the Population Police and asked to do a hard job.

I like when Luke is in it better, frankly, Nina is not as likable in my opinion. It is still a good book and you feel for the charactures, especially, Alia.

Among the Barons (sequal)
*****

Among the Barons by Margaret Peterson Haddix

This is a great book about Luke Gardner, an illegal third child, who is living at Hendricks School For Boys who is visited by his fake identity's brother.
It is a great book, it is very exciting and fun, almost as good as the first.

Among the Impostors by Margaret Peterson Haddix

This book is about Luke Gardner living as Lee Grant, a legal child who had died, and is at the Hendricks school for boys. But there are impostors among him.

I thought this book was great. It wasn't as good as the first one but it was good. The twists are unexpected and that's just what I like. This book is an great second book.

TIP: Do NOT read the preview for the next book. It is the last chapter. I don't know why. It gave many things away.


**** 1/2

Among the Hidden by Margaret Peterson Haddix

This book is about Luke Gardner, a third child in a place where you can only have three childrens. He is illegal. He lives in hiding most of his life until he sees a face in a window at a neighbor's house. He knows it must be a third child. Will he risk everything to meet someone else?

I thought this book was a great start to the series. It had a very good pace to it and was written perfectly. I loved this book.

If Your Reading This It's Too Late by Pseudonymous Bosch

This book is about Cass and Max-Ernest on a mission to find the strange creature that is 500 years old before the Midnight Sun (on the quest to find the Secret.)

I liked this book. It was better than the first one. The charactures and plot was amazing. The author is hilarious with everything he writes. Still, he threw it away at the end. (Who doesn't) but he could make it better. I liked the ending better than the first one this time but it was very sad. The strange creature is funny and great. It is just a great book.
