Treasure Island - Book Review by Lilli
Treasure Island by Robert Louis Stevenson
Treasure Island is not a very good book. It is about a young boy named Jim Hawkins. A captain dies in his inn, and he finds a treasure map. Jim travels with pirates to treasure island. I would not read this book again.

The False Princess - Book Review by Mary
The False Princess by Eilis O'Neal
I started this figuring it would fail in my expectations. I'm happy to say it passed. :) This book reminded me of the Tamora Pierce books. The romance was expected, but different and much better than the normal teen books out there. The plot was surprising, fun, upbeat, and had unexpected twists. The characters were well-rounded and shockingly, had flaws! Read this book, I hope you like it!
