1. The Face on the Milk Carton By: Caroline B. Cooney
This book is about a girl who thinks that her parents stole her. It was an okay book, but I wouldn't read the second one. It was kind of boring, but the plot had a good twist so I'm not sure if I would if I would reccomend this book or not.
2. Sounder By: W. H. Armstrong
Sounder is a classic about a boy and his dog. First off, this book was one of the saddest books I have ever read. People die and a lot of things like that happen to the boy. But even though all that happens it was still a very good book that other people should read.
3. Peeled By: Joan Bauer
Peeled is about a highschool reporter that lives in a small town famous for apples. It was very boring from the beginning until about half way through the book. The characters were kind of interesting, but not enough make the book good. Over all it wasn't a book I remember.
4. Antarctica By: Thomas G. Bauer
This book is about a ship's crew that going to try and make it to the South Pole. I didn't like this book at all. It very boring. It wasn't interesting until someone died, and then it was just sad. I would not read the next book in the series.
5. Heat By: Mike Lupica
This is about a guy who plays baseball. It was an okay book. I'm not a big fan of sports books so that's a reason I didn't like this book. It was also to easy my reading level.
6. The Golden Goblet By: Eloise Jarvis McGraw
This book is about a boy back in the time of ancient Egypt. Golden Goblet is a pretty good book. Not my favorite that we've read in class, but it was good. The characters weren't to boring, and it didn't drag on like some books.
7. The Voyage of the Frog By: Gary Paulsen
This book was great. I liked it a lot. I've read some of his other books and they're just as good. Someone always gets lost in his books, so that's kind of cool. It's in my top 25 favorite books, definately.
8. Models Don't Eat Chocolate Cookies By: Erin Dionne
First off, I didn't like this book at all. If I hadn't had to finish this book for a reading project, I probably wouldn't of finished it at all. The plot went nowhere, and the characters were boring.
9. Vampire Academy By: Richelle Mead
I didn't actually think I would like this book, but it was good. The characters were interesting and didn't want to put the book down. It doesn't look like it but it's an adventure book. Over all worth reading the series.
10. Frostbite By: Richelle Mead
This is the follow up in to the vampire academy. It was better than the first and new characters were introduced. It was much more adventurous and a little sad at times. So, a really good book.
11. Shadow Kiss By: Richelle Mead
I can't see how but her books just get better all the time. Totally different twist then you would expect. So it keeps you on your toes. But, it is the saddest of all her books, it seems like the longer the series, the sadder her books get.
12. Blood Promise By: Richelle Mead
Blood Promise was great, I think that anyone could read it and like it. But, it would be hard to understand if you hadn't read the rest of the series. The characters are still interesting, not boring at all. There are a least two more books coming out from the series this year, and I will definately read them.
13. The Phantom Tollbooth By: Norton Juster
This is a really good book. Out of all the books for reading this is probably one of my favorites. I liked how original it was. It wasn't the same as most books. Also, the characters were interesting, and it never got boring.
14. Cruel Summer By: Alyson Noel

15. A Certain Slant of Light By: Laura Whitcomb
A Certain Slant of Light is not your average ghost story. It's way better. It is about a girl who comes back from the dead by going into peoples bodies. I wish this book was part of a series because it would be great.
16. The Seer of Shadows By: Avi

17. Black Beauty By: Anna Sewell
This was an okay book. It was about a horse, and what the horse goes through. It was from a horses point of view that made it kind of interesting. The plot was very hard to follow though because it told about a few years in one paragraph. The characters were interesting because it gave the horses a personality.
18. Prince Casian By: C.S. Lewis
This book is about a prince whos uncle wants him killed. The prince has to escape from the castle and has an amazing journey along the way. I like the book a lot. It's part of a series and I liked the other books too. It was very descriptive. I liked how each character had there own personality.
19. My Sisters Keeper By: Jodi Picoult
This book is about a girl whos sister needs one of her kidneys to keep her alive. When the sister refuses to donate the kidney a lot of trouble is caused in the family. This was a very sad book.

20-21. Twilight By: Stephanie Meyer
This book is about a girl who falls in love with a vampire. It was a very good book, a lot better than the movie. Once I started reading it, I couldn't put it down. All of the characters are very interesting. I would recommend this book to anyone who asked.
22-23. New Moon By: Stephanie Meyer
This book is the continued series of Twilight. During this book the vampire leaves the girl. This very an okay book. It was kind of boring at times though. The girl moped around a lot. The ending to the book was great.
