.The City of Ember (The First Book of Ember)
City Travel Guides > Books > Teens
by: Jeanne DuPrau

May 25, 2004
This book has a great story-line, but it is very predictable and much too simple for advanced minds. Although I felt like I always knew what was about to happen, I still found it pretty entertaining. Even though it wasn't my favorite book to read, I still want to read the next one because I liked the story.

.Boy in the Striped Pajamas
City Travel Guides > Books > Teens
by: John Boyne

October 23, 2007
I liked this book alot. I can't really describe it that well without giving it away but it's very good. It's well written and I like the approach John Boyne used on the subject.
This book is also being turned into a movie coming out in the US in November 2008. So if you like reading books and then watching the movie that goes with it....
But very powerful and just very good.

PS, its also sad

Exactly what is expected of an audiobook. Just as well-read as the previous books in the series. I can't wait until Lord Sunday (the last book in the series).

.Identical
City Travel Guides > Books > Teens
by: Ellen Hopkins

Maybe I missed something when I choose this book, but when it arrived I discovered it was written in freestyle poetry form. What a letdown!

I enjoy poetry, but not when it is used to tell such a graphic, detailed story. This book, for those like me, would have been a big hit if it had been written as a story, not hundreds of poems.

i wouldn't have thought this book would do me such good. It explained everything in details and gave extremely helpful tips for taking the SAT. i just took it today and it seemed very easy from the learning process of this book. Very thorough in explaining. It is definitely a must have if you're about to take the SAT.

.Crepusculo (Twilight Saga, Book 1) (Paperback) (Twilight Saga)
City Travel Guides > Books > Teens
by: Stephenie Meyer

September 20, 2007
I got through the first few chapters of this before I passed the book on to the public library. Very amateurish and clumsy writing style. If I read one more sentence along the lines of "his eyes were dark and piercing" etc. This makes for very tedious reading.
Quite over-the-top and sophomoric. Not bad story-telling but she could use a good editor.

.From the Mixed-Up Files of Mrs. Basil E. Frankweiler
City Travel Guides > Books > Teens
by: E.L. Konigsburg

April 01, 1998
I feel funny reviewing books that are older than I am (this was published in 1967), but I will share what I thought. I thought this was a cute story, and I don't know how I missed this one when I was young...it seems like it would have been just my style! And, except for a few details (such as how much things cost and the fact that Claudia wears a petticoat), it doesn't feel like it's outdated. I thought a couple of parts were particularly funny, like when Claudia and Jamie find an unopened candy bar on the ground, and Jamie wants to eat it. Claudia says "You better not touch it. It's probably poisoned or filled with marijuana, so you'll eat it and become either dead or a dope addict." How funny!
