Reaper by Will Wight

By

Brief synopsis (no spoilers)

Now that Sacred Valley is mostly safe, the Twin Stars Sect heads back to Blackflame city. Lindon's parents and sister are beginning to understand just how powerful Lindon is, and how unusual his advancement has been in its pace. The team is definitely coming together well (Lindon, Yerin, Eithan, Mercy, and Ziel).

Why I chose this book

Next in series


My personal opinion (the review)

This is a great continuation of the series. I love how none of the books in this series ends in a cliffhanger. There's definitely more action to come, but nothing is left unresolved. Thank you, Will, for putting yet another high-quality, clean action book into the world! I recommend this book (and series) to anyone. Huge kudos to Will for the advanced planning! The twist was fantastic.

Lots of action, sorta magic, and leveling up. Loving it! Let me say it this way: I'll be watching Will Wight's blog, to find out exactly when the next book is completed and released. And I'll buy it as a preorder, for sure.

Tap the Magic Tree by Christie Matheson

By
Summary: Every book needs you to turn the pages. But not every book needs you to tap it, shake it, jiggle it, or even blow it a kiss. Innovative and timeless, Tap the Magic Tree asks you to help one lonely tree change with the seasons. It begins with a bare brown tree. But tap that tree, turn the page, and one bright green leaf has sprouted! Tap again—one, two, three, four—and four more leaves have grown on the next page. Pat, clap, wiggle, jiggle, and see blossoms bloom, apples grow, and the leaves swirl away with the autumn breeze. (Amazon) Attention Span/reading level: Perfect for my three year old. I would say that ages 2-10 would really enjoy something like this. It really keeps kids engaged and makes them feel like part of the story. There is one word to one sentence per page. Good uses for book in teaching: Interaction, that the reader takes part in making the story, what a tree can do (leaves, blossoms, fruit) Favorite part:      Child: The fact that ...

The Game by Terry Schott

By
Brief synopsis (no spoilers) What if this life is just a simulation? What if our bodies are in another world, plugged into a virtual reality game, and our entire life is just one play in that game? What would our real life be like, if we could experience several full simulated lifespans, in our teen years, and then enter adulthood? That is the premise of this story. Category Sci-Fi Why I chose this book It was either free or discounted on Amazon, and sounded interesting My personal opinion (the review) Too many inconsistencies. For example: The real world is able to view the players in the game in "real time", but time in the game is sped up, so that a week in real life is worth a decade in the virtual world. How do real world people have enough time to experience the virtual world, in real time, while still being accelerated? Danielle enters the game 3 days behind Trew, but she only ends up being 1 year younger. If a week is a decade in the game, then 3 days should have be...
