H.I.V.E. stands for the Higher Institute of Villainous Education and that is exactly where Otto Malpanese is taken to. H.I.V.E. only recruits the best of the best, the most cleverest of the cleverest, and the most smartest of the smart to come to this school. In the beginning Otto suddenly wakes up to find himself very dizzy and in a helicopter with one other kid.  The two kids introduce themselves and Otto finds that the kid’s name is Wing. Both of them are very dizzy. When the helicopter lands they are dropped off on a volcano! They see a whole bunch of other kids and don’t know where they are. Later they find out that they are at the school, (you guessed it!) H.I.V.E.! Soon they start to make friends and all of them start to tell each other what kind of bad thing they did to get into this school. For example Nella, a stuck up girl, broke into many jewelry stores and stole stuff that was very valuable. They all traded stories until it was Otto’s turn. For some reason he doesn’t know how he got in trouble! Well, I’ll have to stop there because I don’t want to give the whole story away. If you want to find out what Otto did to get him into H.I.V.E. then you have to read this book. I think this book is for anyone as long as you like adventure stories.

Happy reading!

The story Animorphs by K.A. Applegate is about these aliens called Hork Bajir. There is one Hork Bajir named Aldrea and she is the main character. Aldrea’s father needs to go to a different planet  to train to become a warrior. Aldrea gets inspired by her father and wants to become a warrior just like him. There is one problem and that is Aldrea also wants to be like every other female Hork Bajir and she knows that girls are not born to be warriors. Every girl should have a tail blade smaller than males and to not do any fighting.  Aldrea’s father thinks if Aldrea wants to become a warrior then he should take his whole family with him. Aldrea gets into wild adventures and morphs into other animals. Aldrea’s father gets asked to go into this one place called Father Deep or known as The Deep. Father Deep is a place that no Hork Bajir has made it out of there alive. Aldrea and her family made it past the guardiansof Father Deep and made it past where any Hork Bajir has gone. Aldrea’s biggest challenge is getting in a fight with a Yeerk. A Yeerk can take over any humans body. I will not tell you any more of the story because I want you to go and get this adventurous story.

This book is the fourth and last book so far in the series Hannah West. This book takes place in Seattle, Washington just like the rest. It is about a twelve year old girl who is a professional house sitter with her adoptive mom Maggie West. This book starts when Hannah and her mom move into a mansion on Millionaire’s Row. Then one day the neighbor’s houses have been broken into. It was really weird because nothing was stolen just the furniture was rearranged into Feng Shui and a rock was left in every house that was broken into. After the first house was rearranged Hannah, her mom Maggie, and best friend Lily found out that a TV show was being taped on Millionaire’s Row. then people would get to bring their precious item and see how much the stuff was worth. After part of the show was taped 2 things were actually stolen not the furniture being rearranged but the stuff was stolen. Who is the thief? Is it Louise (one of the neighbors practicing Feng Shui) or is it Gloria (an innocent neighbor). Who is it? Read the book to find out. ENJOY!!!

This is the sequel to Gathering Blue. Matty is a young boy. He lives with a blind man whom everyone calls Seer in a place called Village. In this place, people are usually kind and help others. Matty dreams of becoming the messenger of Village. The messenger is the person who goes back and forth through the woods to send messenges to other villages.

Pretty soon, these people want to make Village unwelcome to visitors! Matty only has a little amount of time to get Seer’s daughter Kira before the gate closes.

Where Jonas lives, life is predictable, safe, and orderly. People hardly make their own choices; every aspect of a person’s life is carefully planned. Everything’s decided for them by the Committee of Elders. Where Jonas lives, there is no snow or sunshine, no colors or music, no animals or nature, and worst of all, no love. In December, Jonas and the other Elevens will become Twelves and they will be assigned jobs for them to do in the community. They will have many responsibilities. Jonas is chosen to have the most honored, mysterious, and important job: The Receiver of Memories. A Receiver of Memories is the one person with access to memories of the past. Jonas begins his training with the current Receiver whom he calls Giver. Giver gives memories of the past to Jonas – memories of things that Jonas never knew of. At first, Jonas receives memories of good, happy things like love and sunshine. But the Giver must also give Jonas memories of loneliness, wars, poverty, hunger, grief, and rage. He will have to carry the burden of knowing the pain. Jonas realizes that the community he lives in is not all it seems. He also realizes that there are different and better ways to live. This book is a really fantastic book, but it is hard to understand. It’s a book that I’m sure you’ll never forget. I recommend it to both boys and girls.
