Justin's Note: Man these guest reviews are getting really good. I'm also planning on getting out some reviews of my own by the way. Anyways, this is a review from probably the first fan I had out of the US. Joseph Yu, who lives in Canada, is I think one of the first people out of the country to check out my blog. Anyways he seems to have written an awesome review, which after reading, I hope you go to a library near you and pick up a copy of Eye of Minds. Joseph: Book: Eye of Minds (Mortality Doctrine Trilogy, Book 1) Author: James Dashner Review By: Joseph Yu, Gr. 6 Summary: Ever since Michael was allowed to sink into the VirtNet(a virtual world used mainly for gaming), his goal had been to conquer Lifeblood (the most famous game in the VirtNet) and become popular like the famous gamer, Gunner Skale .  But after witnessing a girl kill herself within the VirtNet after saying that she was trapped inside the VirtNet by a hacker named Kaine, Michael’s life change...

 Merry Christmas to all! Sure it's still two days before but who says we can't celebrate early. As a surprise I'm in the process of writing a Spy School-FunJungle crossover snazzapalooza fanfic! Here is a little preview which I know you'll enjoy.... “Are you sure this is December?” Warren yelled from the back. Chip went and wacked him on the head with a newspaper as if he were an annoying fly buzzing around you. “It’s Texas you moron, it isn’t like DC! Instead of snow and hot chocolate they have sandy beaches and lemonade year round” You couldn’t blame Warren though; we flew over sunny lands grassy patches when just a couple hours ago we were fighting through a biting wind and treading through a snow just to board the plane.   We were trying our best to get along because after the whole stop-SPYDER-from-blowing-up-New-York fiasco the academy figured we were ready for some field work (who knows what they were thinking with Warren). The agency had gotten ...

Justin's Note: So I've never really been into fantasy books and I was lacking reviews. So to my book club (which you can still join!) I sent out a post which stated I needed some help with reviews. Aiden here, sent me his thoughts on Keeper of the Lost Cities- a book I may never pick up but after reading this I hope you do! Aiden:  Hello everyone, my name is Aiden. Justin needed some help writing reviews so here is mine.I have been reading for a while and have read almost as many books as Justin. Out of all of those books one book( other than some Stuart Gibbs books) stood out the most. That book is Keeper of the Lost Cities by Shannon Messenger. Summary:  Sophie has never been normal, she is in college at twelve but that's not all. She can read minds! When she finds a boy named Flitz who can also read minds. Flitz told her that she is not human. What can she be an alien, an animal, a mutant plant. She is a …. Elf. Of course she doesn't believe him so she runs away ...

Well I haven't posted in three weeks. It was a combination of Big Game coming out and me obsessing over it and, well, I just haven't really been in the mood to post. But that was the past, and heading into prime holiday season, it's time to redeem myself. I'll definitely keep up w/ Fanfic Friday- you guys love them, and I'll do the one I missed yesterday tonight. Reviews will start coming back up probably Tuesdays and maybe Thursdays. Thanks for sticking with me all the way. You are the best!

WOO! BIG GAME IS FINALLY OUT! So hyped right now! Yep- apparently the book is already out but whatever- for those who can't afford an extra 24 cents on the exclusive edition, I decided to wait until the official release date to get out the review of an amazing book. Summary: *BANG* On a routine walk for the elephants for them to get some exercise- Teddy (who's been allowed to walk with the elephants in the morning because of his ability to solve the FunJungle's mysteries) his dad and Athmani ( a new employee who's job is to basically help save the rhinos) hear gunshots. And of course, someone was trying to kill Rhonda- one of the last white rhinos killed off for their extremely expensive horns that sell for hundreds of thousands if not millions of dollars. J.J. McCracken (park owner) instead of deterring Teddy from the case decides to hire him to pave the way for the investigation- before something seriously bad happens. And of course, Summer- J.J.'s daughter who ...

So you know how I said I was going to make revisions and stuff. Well I didn't finish and I felt like with the revisions I had it wasn't my best so I decided to just make the final revisions an exclusive to the email club only and you guys get the original stuff. Academy Training Grounds February 8 1400 hours I was on my own in the paintball war. Hiding behind the mill, I cocked my paintball gun and got into ready position. . I could’ve gotten the flag and ended the whole paintball war at any time I wanted to, but I figured I could let Ben show off his skills to Zoe- which was starting to get obvious he was growing to like her. They were moving away from the hideout hole, so I had to adjust my position by moving around the mill to get out of their line. They climbed to the top of a hill and I watched as Ben set his gun in the crook of a tree. After a minute or so he glanced behind him. Even through the snow, I could tell it was Chip and his moron friend Hauser running...

Let's cut to the chase. So you guys realize two things: 1: Tirade/Top Ten Tuesday never showed up but whatever that's fine. 2. WHERE THE ******** IS FANFIC FRIDAY WE NEED TO KNOW WHAT HAPPENS NEXT (or something like that) Ok so basically for the past week I ignored my blog because I was hunkering down on my studies. Why you ask? Well first of all- good grades equal a happy me. Second of all- Stuart Gibbs is coming to town. Nope not Santa Claus (well you could make an argument that they're the same but anyway) but Stuart Gibbs: The Man. The Myth. The Legend. On Tuesday (yep that  Tuesday. The day Big Game comes out) he'll be making an appearance at a Dallas Barnes & Noble: A reading and a signing. Before I spend the rest of the post explaining how this is so much more important to me than this blog: *ADVERTISMENT ALERT* If you or a loved on love Stuart Gibbs (so...everyone) then come to the Barnes and Noble at The Stonebriar center in Dallas- 2601 Preston Road ...
