More TAB reviews!

-- "The Door to Time" by Ulysses Moore. This book was a very exciting thriller. When Jason and Julia move to a big old mansion on a beach from London they go on a twisting mystery starting with a locked door and four animal like keys and ending with a wonderful viking ship. I would give this book a 10 out of 10.
-- "Maximum Ride: School's Out Forever" by James Patterson. THIS BOOK WAS AMAZING!!! This is the 2nd book in the series. I read this book before the first one but WOW! It is a very good story about kids that were experimented on at the "school," (which is a lab) and given wings. The doctors try to find the kids after they escape so that they can do more experiments on them. The kids find out that they were kidnapped away from their parents when they were born, so they go on a long search for their parents but can only find one childs. To find out more Read The Book.
-- "Chasing the Jaguar" by Michele A. Greene. Wow! There was Spanish in the book at some points of the story, but luckily there was a glossary at the end of the book which really helped! The mystery was not as good as the Nancy Drew Books but pretty close.

-- "The Palace of Laughter" by Jon Berkeley. It was neat how the angels came down and that Miles and Little bond. I also think it fits that Miles is an orphan, and I love the tiger!
-- "Gideon, the Cut-Purse" by Linda Buckley-Archer. It has a good story line, and you can see a guy bond with someone from the future whose dad is never there. It's a bit confusing going from past to present, but you understand it as the book goes on.

-- "The Dream-Maker's Magic" by Sharon Shinn. This book is very well written. It talks about this as if you were an adult. Not some little kid that doesn't get anything. There are some hardships that this person had to endure. It's like real life. Not make-believe.

-- "Jumping the Scratch" by Sarah Weeks. This book was fun to read and very good. At the end it didn't leave you hanging. I really enjoyed the main character and I enjoyed the plot.

I want to comment on "Chasing the Jaguar, by Michele Green" I loved this book! I couldn't put it down! I absolutely love mysteries, and this one has a Latino twist. I love the Spanish glossary at the end. I learned some new words, too. If you haven't read this book, READ IT!!! *Warning* this is not a guy book
