Overall, I loved reading this book. The plot came together nicely and the characters were both compelling, and interesting to learn about. Dracula wasn't quite "horror" in the way that I was used to, instead of jump scares and gore, it used descriptions and a sense of suspense to build the reader's anxiety. The entire time that I was reading, I felt like the characters were real, which not many horror books can do. It didn't use cliches at all, the plot twists were well thought out and all made sense with what information the book had supplied previously. My only note is that there were a lot of casual sexist remarks made toward the middle, which was off-putting for me, even though I know that this book was made during a time when that was considered okay. It took me a lot of time to get through, but Dracula was definitely worth the read.

Amazing book, though very gruesome. Interesting concept. I have to get the next one; Catching Fire.

This is a great story. It is about twelve seventh graders and every chapter was at a different kids perspective. In the story, a New girl named orchid moves into town. She has a flower in her hair, and she has been to many places. She was very mysterious. All people think she is odd. They are all ready for the dance. Jamie’s friend Renni is going there to. Greyson and Dorothy are like nothings, and Orchid fits right in. Dorothy always has a fine day, and she pays attention and she is not at the same time. I also forgot to tell you that Jamie’s parents owned a very nice, successful sea food restaurant. Fawn creek is like a barrier. You can’t see what anything is happening unless you travel. One day, Orchid told them a new game! It was called mirror mirror, and The way you play it is you tell everyone something that sliced you into two, and the next person complimented the person greatly. At the dance, Renni spilled the beans. Screamed out that Orchid told all lies! Her name was not even Orchid! They had a massive fight, and Greyson punches Renni and he goes to the principals office. After that, everything’s normal. My favorite part was when Jamie played mirror mirror with her sister, Madeline.

I like Dragon’s friend, the Apple, because the walrus at the doctor ate it.

I really loved it. Very informative. The only issue was that they didn’t have information about tanzanite.

I must say I didn't know what to expect from the title, but I was looking for something light and easy to read this summer and it did just that. There was great character building and evolving which always makes stories interesting and just enough intrigue and romance to keep you engaged.

This is a amazing book that you have to read. It is about a story that a girl named Sophie who is a elf tries to find her destiny. She goes to school and gets detention, and she does gross stuff. She finds a legendary Alicorn, that is probably connected to the black swan. She gets in a lot of trouble when she goes to get fixed by the black swan. She gets in trouble with Brontë, the school principal. He acussed them of harming the alicorn and demanded them to hand it over to the sanctuary. She refused and then they had a massive argument about where it will be. Sophie finally let the Alicorn go to the sanctuary, and she visited it every week. I learned from this story that stay calm at all times. My favorite part was when Sophie healed Alden, Fitzes dad.

I liked this book because the school is really coming alive now. There was a hand made out of water that tried to grab Sam and he and his friends had to destroy it. I can't wait to see what happens to them and the school in the next book.

I like Dragon because he is very funny because he did everything wrong.

This book is perfect to start a lot of fighting in the series.
