    "I love a good book. My favorites are usually modern day stories about normal people with a little bit of magic thrown in to make it interesting. I originally started reading the Percy Jackson series because my granddaughter liked the movie. So I bought her the series and we read at least a chapter or two every time we spend a few hours together. My girl does most of the reading and I sort of explain the parts or words she doesn't understand. We've almost finished all of the Percy Jackson series. And I must confess, since I read just a bit faster, I've moved onto the Lost Hero series. It started a bit slower than the other books. But as I read the story I found myself wondering how it was going to play out. Greek mythology is just as fascinating as Roman mythology. I like that they're being mixed together and how these series are overlapping. The message I see in both series is one of honesty, and friendship and trust. The concept of right and wrong should be installed into young people at an early age. Age appropriate explanations of actions and consequences. These books have helped my granddaughter, who is just about 8 years old, to learn to think about what will happen once she has said or done something. I'm thankful there are stories that have captured her interest and attention. She is also beginning to understand that the lessons these books are helping her to learn will help her throughout her life!! That is the best compliment I can give to any author and his/her stories."

    "I see you're a Harry Potter fan huh. Like the books more than the movie? Yeah I too liked the books more than the movies. If you're looking for something new to read I can I suggest the "The Golden Compass (His Dark Materials)" Its has the mystery that the potter books had but also stays original with its own twists and tales thru a dark world full of magic. Try them out I think you might like them."

As good as the Lord of The Rings was I have to say that the Hobbit is my favorite. If you liked Harry Potter then you'll love this. I can't recommend it enough."

    "Eragon and its associated book series are somewhat similar to the Harry Potter series. It seems like it is more focused around mythical creatures than about people performing magical spells. Kids seem to think it's a good page-turner though, it might be a good book to pick up for your kids for a road trip or something."

It really surprised me how they could take a fake sport and invent a whole history behind it. I was addicted throughout the book!"
