Percy Jackson and the Lightning Theif

Hi, Peanut here,
This is a new review for the first book in the Percy Jackson series. Rick Riordan is one of my favourite authors. He describes everything so vividly and I really wished the book would go on.

This book explains the life of a boy named Percy, who realizes that his father is one of the Greek Gods. Percy is now in more danger than ever, with monsters attacking from every corner and the main God, Zeus, accusing him of being the thief of his precious lightning bolt. To stop a huge war, Percy must return the bolt to Olympus before the deadline. With all this on his mind and Hades looking for revenge- hoo boy! This is going to be one tough summer.

What I really liked about the book was the fact that Percy is a really good character who you know is going to make the story interesting. And it is! Percy and his friends really get into a lot of stick situations and have to think quick
Rating on the Peanut Meter: ★★★.5 out of 5

Adios,
Peanut

All Four Stars

Hey again, It's Peanut again, reviewing a second book. It's called All Four Stars. This book was recommended to me by my best friend, A.G and I borrowed it from her. (I had, in fact, gifted it to her in the first place without knowing.*) This book explains the life of a wanna-be chef, Gladys Gatsby. By the age of 11, she develops a passion and talent for cooking. Unfortunately, after a horrendous incident, she is banned from the kitchen forever. However, by pure accident, Gladys sends in a paper for an essay writing contest (that is not the accident) but her paper reaches the hand of the editor who then employs Gladys to be the new food critic for her newspaper. Now, Gladys has to sneak into the brand new restaurant Classy Cakes, to write a review. Can she do it? Introducing All four Stars, a fun-filled story and a must read for all those from the age of 9-12. I really think this is one of my favourite books so far. Gladys is a remarkable and likable character who ...

The Shy Supergirl

Hi everyone! This is my 1st book review on The Shy Supergirl, as the title already tells you. This book is not a 'You have to read it or else you'll go crazy' but it is nevertheless good. It has an interesting backstory, a girl who hates Hindi homework and a SUPERHERO! If you ask me, this book is perfect for those between the age of 7-9. I found myself wishing it would go on. I feel Mrs. Shabnam Minwalla has done a really good job and the illustrations by Tanvi Bhat really brighten up the story, even if they're black and white. In this story, the main character, Nina, is just the sort of superhero who you would like to be, and you can tell this is going to be a short, but sweet story. No, I'm not like those people who go all lah-di-dah over books because they review them.( I'll have you know that the publishers of duckbill have not sent me this. I had it at home) These are my honest opinions. Here's a summary of the book: Meet Nina, the average 9 yea...
