Darkest Fairy: Lost

Lost

Reader Number 98 wrote: Once of the only fan fictions that catch my interest. A new girl who is just like the infamous Van Helsing arrives at the church one day after being chased by none other than the vicious count Dracula. What other story has a love triangle between the world's hottest two people: Dracula & Van Helsing. Oh and don't forget the talking mushrooms. Grade: A

Freak the Mighty


Reader Number 436 wrote: Something unique...attractive...amazingly suspenseful...it probably refers to a lazy kid with a genius partner...and describes that you have the power to achieve it. Maxwell, a kid who learned slowly, & Freak (Kevin), the genius dwarf, together, were Freak the Mighty. And if you are done reading the book of your choice, you should read this to change your mind a bit.

King Stork


Reader Number 520 wrote: This book was a little boring. It repeated itself and was very predictable. This was like any other fairy tale book.I recommend it to kids 9-5. Grade: C

Turnabout


Reader Number 528 wrote: I give this book a B. In the beginning, it was confusing because it jumps back and forth between years. Then it gets excited because the characters are reliving their lives again, but in the future with awesome gadgets. They are also fugitives. The one bad thing about this book was the end. The author left it off as a big cliffhanger...what will happen when the girls hit zero? If you enjoy science fiction and suspense, this is the book for you!!

The House on the Gulf


Reader Number 528 wrote: I gave this book an A. It was awesome! I loved the mystery of it, very suspenseful. All of the questions you have are answered! Bran is a great character. The way he is described as such a nice, considerate 16 year old boy, but he constantly acts suspicious. A book full of twists and turns, and a great mystery book for all.

Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix


Reader Number 528 wrote: It was very thrilling. Most of the events that occurred in the movie did happen in the book. The things that were missing though were important. I recommend this movie to Harry Potter fans and people who love adventure. I think the best character was Dolores Umbridge. She is the best played character, but you want to hate her at the same time. Grade: B
