The Witch of Blackbird Pond

I would probably read this book in middle or high school.

In this book sixteen year old Kit goes to live with her aunt, uncle, and their three daughters. While    she is there, she meets an old lady and they become great friends. When her uncle finds out, he bans Kit from ever seeing her again.  Kit finds out the townspeople think the old lady is a witch.  Kit sneaks away to visit her anyway, and is soon accused of witchcraft. Later on Kit gets in big trouble with the law.

This book has no bad language, and very minor romance. It has no violence, but mentions hanging, and someone being branded.

This is a very good book, but I would definitely read it when you are older.

My favorite character is Kit. She is brave, and, strong, and stands up for what is right.

I hope you enjoy it!!

The Gallagher Girls Book 1: I'd Tell You I Love You, But Then I'd Have to Kill You Book Review

This series is good to start reading in fifth or sixth grade.
                 
This series is about a girl named Cammie, and her best friends Liz, Bex and Macey. The Gallagher Girl School is a school that teaches girls ages twelve to eighteen to be international spies. This school teaches classes like physical training, and covert ops lessons. They have secret passage ways, weapons everywhere, and disguises for everyone. Cammies mom is the headmaster of the school, and her dad was killed on a mission. across the border is another school only it teaches boys ages twelve to eighteen to be assassins. In the second book Cammie falls in love with one of the boys named Zack.
                 
This book is really good, but I would read it when you are around the age of eleven or twelve.

My favorite character is Macey. She can laugh and have fun, but can also be serious when she needs to be.

This book has minor violence, minor language, and medium romance.

I hope you love this book as much as I did.
