Cool website.

I was cruising through the Internet the other night and I came across a website that is really cool.
www.teenread.com There are book reviews and author interviews. You can find reviews on new books or books you might want to read but not sure about. Look up your favorite author and read their interview. They even have a monthly contest to win prizes.
Check it out!

I just finished reading Beastly by Alex Flinn. It is the contemporary retelling of Beauty and Beast the fairy tale from the beast point of view. It a charming story with the beast being a self centered teen boy who's father is famous and wealthy. The beauty is a girl who is smart, poor and unnoticed in the well do private school.
A very good read.
Dewy's rating 4 scales.

The Alchemyst by Michael Scott


"The Alchemyst" was most definitely a page-turner. One of the most major things I liked about the main characters was that they weren't perfect. Sophie and Josh both had their own personal fears and like normal fifteen year old, they were not immune to making mistakes. This makes them a lot easier to understand and connect with. Also, there is a lot of mythology mentioned in this book, and afterwards, I had an incredible urge to go read some mythology for myself, making this book a good start on becoming interested in mythology. "The Alchemyst" is a fabulous book and I would recommend it as a must read.
