Sara Shepard's Wanted: a Pretty Little Liars novel: A Review by Aliyah R.!

*This review features a book that is not available at the Longfellow Library*

Hanna, Aria, Emily, and Spencer were nothing special, just normal students at Rosewood Day in Rosewood.  But then Ali came along.  She was pretty popular and everything any other girl would want to be.  And she chose Aria, Emily, Hanna and Spencer as her four new BFF's in sixth grade.  But at their end-of-seventh-grade sleepover, things took a wrong turn.  Ali went missing.  Now, four years later Ali comes back--dead.  Little do Spencer, Emily, Aria and Hanna, the "Pretty Little Liars," know; Ali was keeping a secret.  Getting strange texts and creepy notes from dead people isn't the only freaky thing going on either.  One thing I liked about this book was the suspense and action.  You might like this book if you enjoy mysteries and suspense books where you have to remember certain things to figure out an important fact from the book.

Natalie Babbitt Tuck Everlasting: A Review by Krystal!

Winnie Foster is a curious, bored ten year old who decides she wants to run away. One day she decides to take a walk in the woods and passes along a mysterious spring and a boy drinking from it. She decides to take a drink but the boy refuses to allow her. Soon she finds herself being taken away on a horse by crazy strangers who claim they are 100 years old, but look about 40. Who are these people and why are they so protective over the spring? I like this book because it contains mystery and excitement.

Melissa de la Cruz's Blue Bloods: A Review by Ke'yani!

Blue Bloods is basically about vampires. There is a girl named Mimi in this book who you will find out about. She has these flashbacks about how she thinks she lived a life in the far past, before she was even born! I like this book because I'm into vampires and mystery books. You should read this book because it's not what you hear on a regular basis.

*SPOILER ALERT FOR Do the Math: Secrets, Lies, and Algebra*

In Wendy Lichtman's first book, Do the Math: Secrets, Lies, and Algebra, Tess tells on some of her classmates for cheating on a test. Now, these classmates are trying to get revenge. Also, someone wrote on the church wall and Tess thinks that these writings are meant for her to figure out the puzzle. This is a good book because it has lots of mystery. You should read this book because it shows how you can apply math to real life.
