Adams, Douglas. Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy. 142 pgs, 1000L in the English Room
|
Miranda M., senior The Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy begins as Earth is destroyed to make way for a galactic highway. The main characters, Arthur Dent, a sappy Earthling, and Ford Prefect, a stranded alien, are the only ones to survive. After a series of unexplained, but totally random coincidences they are transported to a stolen spaceship, which is being operated by two beings that Arthur and Ford already know. This quartet of misfits are chased from one side of the universe to the other by everyone from poetry loving, torture-driven aliens, to mice, which by some strange coincidence, were the rulers of Earth. It’s like nothing I’ve ever read, and I thoroughly enjoyed it. However, it does require a certain taste for sarcasm and sporadic spouts of nonsensical humor. |

Adams, Richard. Watership Down. Carnegie Medal 475 pgs, 880L
In English Room. |
One of the most beloved novels of our time, Richard Adams's Watership Down takes us to a world we have never truly seen: to the remarkable life that teems in the fields, forests and riverbanks far beyond our cities and towns. It is a powerful saga of courage, leadership and survival; an epic tale of a hardy band of adventurers forced to flee the destruction of their fragile community...and their trials and triumphs in the face of extraordinary adversity as they pursue a glorious dream called "home." |

Alvarez, Julia. How the Garcia Girls Lost their Accents. 950L 304 pgs |
The
Garcías—Dr. Carlos (Papi), his wife Laura (Mami), and their four
daughters, Carla, Sandra, Yolanda, and Sofía—belong to the uppermost
echelon of Spanish Caribbean society, descended from the conquistadores.
Their family compound adjoins the palacio of the dictator’s
daughter. So when Dr. García’s part in a coup attempt is discovered,
the family must flee. They arrive in New York City in 1960 to a life far removed from their existence in the Dominican Republic. Papi has to find new patients in the Bronx. Mami, far from the compound and the family retainers, must find herself. Meanwhile, the girls try to lose themselves—by forgetting their Spanish, by straightening their hair and wearing fringed bell bottoms. For them, it is at once liberating and excruciating being caught between the old world and the new, trying to live up to their father’s version of honor while accommodating the expectations of their American boyfriends. Acclaimed writer Julia Alvarez’s brilliant and buoyant first novel sets the García girls free to tell their most intimate stories about how they came to be at home—and not at home—in America. |

Alvarez, Julia. In the Time of the Butterflies. 910L 352 pgs |
It
is November 25, 1960, and three beautiful sisters have been found near
their wrecked Jeep at the bottom of a 150-foot cliff on the north coast of
the Dominican Republic. The official state newspaper reports their deaths
as accidental. It does not mention that a fourth sister lives. Nor does it
explain that the sisters were among the leading opponents of Gen. Rafael
Leonidas Trujillo’s dictatorship. It doesn’t have to. Everybody knows
of Las Mariposas—“The Butterflies.” In this extraordinary novel, the voices of all four sisters—Minerva, Patria, María Teresa, and the survivor, Dedé—speak across the decades to tell their own stories, from hair ribbons and secret crushes to gunrunning and prison torture, and to describe the everyday horrors of life under Trujillo’s rule. Through the art and magic of Julia Alvarez’s imagination, the martyred Butterflies live again in this novel of courage and love, and the human cost of political oppression. |

Darcy,
ninth grade
Ender Wiggin is the boy who is going to save the world, he just doesn’t know it. He’s picked for training to be an elite military genius. Through his rigorous training in war games and strategy, Ender becomes the youngest commander in the history of the Battle School, and with his troops, he is unstoppable. Soon after being the youngest graduate ever, Ender is shipped off to flight school. Oblivious to the importance of the mission, Ender and his troops battle to save the world. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes reading about futuristic war or science fiction. Tymon, eighth grade Andrew Wiggin, or Ender, has been selected by the IF government to go to battle school in space and defeat the buggers. The buggers were aliens that had come to Earth two times and attacked. Ender was the last person that had a chance in beating the buggers. When I first started reading this book it was confusing because it was in the future. I didn’t know what the two awards were that the book received. Now I know they are the highest Sci-Fi awards to receive. This book was a long read and it had some high reading level words in it. Mr. Greenlee The government takes a genius kid to a military school. The kids there not only have regular studies, but also play war games. He always wins, and he develops some serious enemies. Now, he must defeat them both in the arena and out of it. |

Garcia, Cristina Dreaming in Cuban. 940L 272 pgs |
Garcia's first novel is about Cuba, her native country, and three generations of del Pino women who are seeking spiritual homes for their passionate, often troubled souls. Celia del Pino and her descendants also share clairvoyant and visionary powers that somehow remain undiminished, despite the Cuban revolution and its profound effect upon their lives. This dichotomy suffuses their lives with a potent mixture of superstition, politics, and surrealistic charm that gives the novel an otherworldly atmosphere. Garcia juggles these opposing life forces like a skilled magician accustomed to tossing into the air fiery objects that would explode if they came into contact. Writing experimentally in a variety of forms, she combines narratives, love letters, and monologs to portray the del Pinos as they move back and forth through time. Garcia tells their story with an economy of words and a rich, tropical imagery, setting a brisk but comfortable pace. Highly recommended. |

Sam Spade, a hard-boiled detective, is on the trail of two murder cases and is on the search for a highly valuable statue of a black bird. As the search goes further, more twisted suspects and lies surface. Each suspect has a unique personality and adds greatly to the story. These characters all prove to be prime suspects to pin the murders on. Although in the end, the murderer is the least expected person. I would recommend this book to someone who likes detective books or books with strong characters. Mr. Greenlee An enjoyable story, a real introduction to the noir detective genre. |

Jeff, 10th Grade This is the first book that I have ever really thoroughly enjoyed. It is filled with likable characters. The one telling the story is not the main character though, the story is more about R. P. MacMurphy, a laid back character, who’s laziness in real prison has gotten him transferred over to a mental institute, where head nurse Ratched is on his case time and time again. MacMurphy is not crazy, and just wants to have a good time. He befriends several of the patients, and is soon the center of attention. He did not learn his lesson when he caused trouble in the streets, he brought it with him to the mental institute, and now he has to deal with one who is worse than the law, nurse Ratched. |

Niffennegger, Audrey The Time Traveler’s Wife. 780L 536 pgs |
On the surface, Henry and Clare Detamble are a normal couple living in Chicago's Lincoln Park neighborhood. Henry works at the Newberry Library and Clare creates abstract paper art, but the cruel reality is that Henry is a prisoner of time. It sweeps him back and forth at its leisure, from the present to the past, with no regard for where he is or what he is doing. It drops him naked and vulnerable into another decade, wearing an age-appropriate face. In fact, it's not unusual for Henry to run into the other Henry and help him out of a jam. Sound unusual? Imagine Clare Detamble's astonishment at seeing Henry dropped stark naked into her parents' meadow when she was only six. Though, of course, until she came of age, Henry was always the perfect gentleman and gave young Clare nothing but his friendship as he dropped in and out of her life. It's no wonder that the film rights to this hip and urban love story have been acquired. |

O'Brien, Timothy.
Going After Cacciato. 620L 352 pgs |
Going After Cacciato captures the peculiar mixture of horror and hallucination that marked this strangest of wars. In a blend of reality and fantasy, this novel tells the story of a young soldier who one day lays down his rifle and sets off on a quixotic journey from the jungles of Indochina to the streets of Paris. In its memorable evocation of men both fleeing from and meeting the demands of battle, Going After Cacciato stands as much more than just a great war novel. Ultimately it's about the forces of fear and heroism that do battle in the hearts of us all. |

Jeff,
ninth grade
This is a classic and an exciting read. I have read this book about three times and was taken right into it each time. This author has done other classic stories, but in my opinion, none as good as this. It is packed with suspense, action, and adventure. Who doesn’t like a book with those three aspects, and a mission to find buried treasure? If you don’t, then don’t bother reading the rest of the review, because all I have to say are compliments. I really like that it is about olden days, and yet it is still a freaking riot to read. I give this book 5 Jolly Rogers out of 5. Mr. Greenlee His mother carefully counts out the coins while drunken murderers in filthy rags creep through the night toward his house. A foolish squire and a doctor who will make a terrible error guide him away. This tale still works, and works well! The little archaic language offers no barrier to this well-paced, wonderful adventure. It rates five stars easily. |

Tolkien, J. R. R. The Lord of the Rings. A Classic Youth Novel 1356 pgs, 860L
In English Room |
Collin, Junior The novel takes place in Middle-Earth where a war is beginning. It follows the story of Frodo Baggins when he comes into the possession of a ring. He then begins a journey into the unknown forming a fellowship with men, elves and dwarves and encounters orcs, black riders, trolls and many other mythical creatures. The book was drastically different from the movie and I enjoyed it more. The cores of the story were the same but there were far more details in everything from family trees of hobbits to specific events that happened along the journey in the book. Reading the book first though is better for that seeing the movie first throws of the sense of where things are going in the book, expecting something to happen in the movie and having a whole chain of events happen instead between parts at times is frustrating. Regardless of this I was able to make it through the book with a more polished understanding of what happened then compared to the movie. The Fellowship of the Ring itself is a classic fiction novel and Tolkien’s writing is so in depth that every moment has clear details to the story and I recommend this book. Thomas R. This is a great book I gave it five stars because it keeps you attached and you can’t stop reading it, This is a really hard book but still most people in seventh grade or higher could read it. Although this book is really long and takes for ever to read it is really good and the way Tolkien writes it keeps people attached. It is about a Hobbit named Frodo Baggins who out of sheer misfortune comes across a ring of power. If he doesn’t destroy it in a volcano on the other side of middle earth, man kind will end and the world will be ruled by dirty mindless orcs. Robert Cbs., ninth grade Frodo Baggins wanted to live in peace but when his uncle Bilbo gave him the evil Ring, it disrupted his plan. This book is about a hobbit that was given the most challenging task in Middle Earth: to destroy the evil Ring of power in the fires of Mount Doom. But Frodo can not do this alone; he has eight companions from all over Middle Earth to help him on his quest- three hobbits, two men, one Elf, one Dwarf, and one Wizard. I recommend this book to anyone who likes books about adventures, action, and fantasy. One reason why this book was so great is because its description of Middle Earth makes you feel like there and its battle scenes makes you feel like you are fighting along side Frodo’s company. This is a great book. Tyler, junior The Fellowship of the Rings, the first installment of The Lord of the Rings trilogy, provides adventure and a deep plot through the thought-provoking story telling of master author J.R.R. Tolkien. The tale features a host of hobbits (small, plump people) and other creatures journeying into the dangerous lands of Mordor in the southeast in order to dispose of an ancient, evil heirloom. Evil men and other fearsome beasts under the command of the darkness in Mordor pursue the band of heroes, and only through their loyalty and devotion to each other and their cause do they escape the enemy's brute-force, speed, spies, and trickery. The Fellowship of the Ring is an interesting read and an example of literary excellence for all who can read the archaic language. Richard, senior The "Lord of the Rings" trilogy is hands down, one of the greatest fantasy novels ever written. The "Fellowship of the Ring" is the first installment in this timeless classic. For someone who is impatient, the "Lord of the Rings" my not be the book for them, because there are three books in the series, most of the first is spent building character, plot, and scenery. It is not until the last 150 pages that the action really picks up, and from there it never stops, and as the first book ends it leaves you right in the middle of your journey, and begging for more. Anyone who enjoys far off lands, mystical characters, and has a vivid imagination, would have a great time reading, "The Lord of the Rings". It is a wonderful read for all ages. |

Wells, H. G. The Time Machine. A Classic Novel
139 pgs, 1070L In English Room. |
Onaca, 9th grade The Time Machine was a slow book that was exceedingly heavy on the main character’s thoughts and surmises. It continually went off into tangents on what the character thought might have been true, then immediately dismisses the whole two page rant with, “But that’s only what I thought then, mind you.” This isn’t a book for the easily bored or impatient. However, it isn’t a bad book at all. In fact, it presents a lot of interesting ideas such as the human race dividing into two different species completely because of the gap between high and low class peoples. It’s thought provoking, and as long as you have the patience to get through pages of the needless (though at times somewhat interesting) thought processes of the main character, then it’s a wonderful read. Mr. Greenlee When a man travels from New Year's Day of 1900 to the far future, he finds that people have devolved to simple-minded beings that are human only in appearance; their minds have sunk to the level of animals. But there is something more sinister here as well, and it has stolen his time machine – his only method of returning! |

Wells, H. G. War of the Worlds. Classic Novel
200 pgs, 1170L In English Room. |
Scott, senior I’d wanted to read H.G. Wells’ The War of the Worlds for quite some time before I finally got around to picking it up. I had always thought that seeing both film adaptations before reading the book would kill any kind of excitement and suspense in the read. I was wrong. The book on which the two films were based is far superior to both and I enjoyed it completely. Usually I take my time reading books but this one I couldn’t put down; finishing it in less than a week. Yes, it is a short read, but a complete and compelling one at the same time. The amount of detail that Wells uses to describe everything from the setting, to the people, to the wicked aliens themselves is outstanding; keeping you quite involved throughout. Whether or not you have seen either movie based on this wonderful book or not, you need to give this a read. The worst that could happen is you don’t like it at all. But even then, it’s a short book so you won’t feel like you wasted much time. What I’m assuming however is that all readers will truly enjoy this book for its detailed action, gripping narrative, and shocking conclusion. I couldn’t give this book a better recommendation! |
