The 1,000-year-old Boy by Ross Welford
5.0
Wow - I rarely rate a book five stars and this is one of the few that I have rated 5 stars.
It was:
-Heartwarming
-Sad
-Somehow happy at the same time
-Funny
-The characters were great,
Roxy was kind of like Hermione Granger's sister or something (sorry) but for some reason I didn't really like her.
I think my rating speaks for itself, and the book was one of the best books I have ever read!
It was short, fact-paced and it was so exciting that I read it in *almost* one sitting!
It was interesting, intriguing and I was hooked right from the beginning.
I would recommend it to just about everyone who is into middle-grade or if you just like fact-paced and short books.

Crushing It by Joanne Levy
I'm really confused about this book so I'm not going to give it a rating yet.
If I had to, it would probably be about 3.5 stars...
First of all, I guess I'm kind of embarrassed to have read this book, but I did actually like it a little.
It wasn't bad, but not a jewel either.
It was pretty predictable and right from the third chapter I had already kind of read it in my head - because I knew what would happen at the end.
It was a fun and very, very short read ( I read it in one sitting or maybe even an hour) but I'm still not sure about this.

This is literally THE best book ever.
So funny. So creative. I LOVED IT!!
I would recommend it to every single human being on the face of this earth.
And I will re-read it about a million or so times.

The Remarkable Journey of Coyote Sunrise by Dan Gemeinhart
5.0
I felt like this was way too short! I love how they failed several times but in the end, everything is all right.
I would recommend it to everyone but I will probably not re-read this.

Pride and Prejudice by Jane Austen
2.0
I didn't really get the point of this book.
Some things I noticed were that sometimes a lot of the characters were very wordy and spoke in long and confusing sentences and I felt like telling them that they weren't reading an essay out loud.
The characters were good enough and it made me appreciate the book a little more but I don't think I'm going to read more of Jane Austen's books.
