The Testing
Book Review: The Testing
The testing is a wonderfully written book! It is about a girl named Cia who makes it to the testing and possibly then to University. At the testing she learns what her colony and Tosu city is actually like. How they treat people and who their leaders actually do and are. This book takes place her in the United States and specifically Michigan, but it happens after a fantasy disaster that happened there.

The Missing series by Margaret Peterson Haddix
The Missing series is an 8 book series by Margaret Peterson Haddix. The titles in this series, in order, are as follows: Found, Sent, Sabotaged, Torn, Caught1, Risked2, Revealed, and Redeemed. The main characters, an adopted 13-year-old boy named Jonah, and his 11-year-old, not adopted sister, have to travel back in time so that their time, the 21st century, does not collapse. I would go more into detail, but doing so would spoil some of the books, and we agreed that there is to be NO SPOILERS in the blogs.
(My apology, the bottom row of the picture I had to manually align, so it's not the best image ever;P)
1 Between Caught and Risked there is an e-short story titled Sought
2 Between Risked and Revealed there is an e-short story titled Rescued

Smile & Sisters by Raina Telgemeier
Smile and Sisters are 2 true stories that happen one after another. In Smile, Raina finds herself in different situations like having bad friends, messing up her teeth, and crushes. In Sisters, the story focuses less on Raina's schooling and more on her family. Sister problems, pet problems, and parent problems, all real things that happen to people. I'd recommend both of these books if you're into real girl situations. I give it 5 stars.
Absolutely Almost
Absolutely Almost is a good book for people who think they aren't good at anything. This book shows you that you all have talents, I would recommend this book
Mare's War By: Tanita S. Davis
Mare's War is both historical fiction and realistic fiction. The characters include Octavia and Tali, who have to go on a road trip with their bizarre grandmother, Mare. During the long hours in the car, Mare tells stories of her life. The book changes between the now (when they are in the car on the road trip) and then (in Mare's perspective in her stories). And let me tell you, some of Mare's stories are quite interesting! I would totally recommend this book to anyone who like realistic or historical fiction. Personally, I do not like historical fiction, but this book books a unique spin on it. I would give this book 4.5 out of 5 stars. The only reason I wouldn't give it 5 is because it is hard to get into at the beginning.
