Memory Power! by Dhaval Bhatia


This is a book which talks about the techniques which is useful in memorizing names, faces, year dates, phone numbers, speeches, and other things. This book even tells us how to figure out which day of the week is just by knowing the date! The author says that the best ways to memorizing things are connecting word to pictures, making up stories out of the words to remember, and repeating the words to remember.


I liked this book because it explains the memorizing techniques very easily and shows us examples to  help the readers understand. Other reasons why I liked the book were that the memorizing techniques really work and it fascinated me.

I recommend this book to people who want to memorize things better because it helps you memorize everything.

The Last Thirteen



    This is a book about Sam, who was an ordinary high school student until he was taken by a group of soldiers with Alex and Eva. After he is told that his parents were a fake, his life changes forever. Now he is the only hope to save the world. He have to fight against Solaris, who is trying to destroy him and everyone else. Will he able to do it?

I think this book is a great book because the book shows us that when a thing or a person has a special ability, there are people who tries to use in a bad and in a good way.


I give 3 out of 5 stars in this book and I recommend this book to people who wants to read young-adult fiction books which makes you think a lot, not books which have a lot of actions or other things.

The people in this group are Eric, Molly, Rohan, Rose, Simon, Clay, Bud, and Louisa. They are mainly a team of superheroes, except for Daniel. He is the odd one out because he does not have any superpowers. Then they meet this evil villain called the Shroud, and try to defend their town by killing the Shroud in an epic battle.

Artemis Fowl: The Eternity Code by Eoin Colfer

I just finished the book Artemis Fowl: The Eternity Code by Eoin Colfer in the month of November. I just kept turning the page one after the other. It was so good. It was about a boy named Artemis Fowl who is thirteen years old and is a criminal mastermind. He has his butler always by his side. Then he made a cube called the C Cube. It's basically a supercomputer that can hack into any network in the world and with that you can do anything. He makes a business deal with an American (Artemis is Irish) when it goes terribly wrong. In that process, Artemis is almost shot. Luckily for Artemis, Butler (his butler) dived in the way and got shot. The good thing was that Butler was wearing a bulletproof vest. The bad thing is that the bullet went through the bulletproof vest. Butler was severely injured. Luckily, Holly Short, Artemis and Butler's fairy friend comes to the rescue and heals Butler. Everyone advised Artemis not to do the healing process for Butler because there would be some side effects. Artemis still wanted to do it because Butler was like his only friend. When the healing process is done, Butler got about 15 years older! Then they battle public enemy number 1: Opal Koboi and the traitor: Cudgeon.

Do they defeat them? You'll have to find out yourself. This book much better than the 2nd book The Arctic Incident. It is not as boring and there is a lot more action.
This book was interesting and I recommend it to people who like fantasy and action books. I would rate this book 4/5 stars.

The Scorch Trails-James Dashner


This book is the second book of the Maze Runner trilogy. It is about how after they get out of the maze and return to the normal world but they do not know what is awaiting them, the reason that they were sent to the maze. Burned and baked the earth is a wasteland. It all started when huge sun flares infected earth turning it into a catastrophe and creating a dreadful disease called the flare. A contagions horrible cold that drives people crazy mad. Really mad. Madder than you think mad. very mad. When they first are sent back they are locked up in an old abandoned house when they finally break open the lock of their door using...... a fire extinguisher.
Three feet from his bed draped by colorful curtains, a window looked out into a bright blinding light. The glass was broken, jagged shards leaning against crisscrossed steel bars. A man stood on the other side, gripping the bars with bloody hands. His eyes were wide and bloodshot, filled with madness. He had no hair, only diseased splotches of what looked like greenish moss. A vicious silt streaked across his right cheek; Thomas could see teeth through the raw festering wound. Pink saliva dribbled in swaying lines from the mans chin.
"I'm a Crank!" the horror of a man yelled. "I'm a bloody Crank!"
And then he started screaming two words over and over and over, spit flying with every shriek.
"Kill me! Kill me! Kill me!..."
And now you know what the word mad means. For those of you who like Fiction and that little tinge of violent, this is your book! Those of you who like sunshine and happiness books with good endings.....

Book review: Boy by Roald Dahl

Boy
by:Jaehoon Jeong



 Boy is a story of Roald Dahl’s childhood. “Boy” opens with Roald Dahl’s father, Harald Dahl, running away with his brother to France. Uncle Oscar went to La Rochelle, and Harald Dahl set up a business with a Mr Aednesan in Cardiff. He had married and had a daughter and a son, but his wife died after giving birth to the boy. Harald Dahl looked for a stepmother, and then met and married Sofie Hesselburg, who she gave birth to five children, Roald Dahl and his four sisters.


 The rest of the book explains in great detail about Roald Dahl’s eventful, amusing and interesting childhood. After a great deal of amusing and horrible events, the soon-to-be author went to a great finishing school, Repton. ’’Boy” is a great book to enjoy. “Boy” goes from when Harald Dahl was fourteen to when Roald Dahl was starting his job. The book “Boy” shows us that truth is stronger than fiction.


 I have enjoyed this book a lot. But what I think is that if there wasn’t this people in his life, the story would be boring and would not have been interested. However,  “Boy” is definitely as exciting as one of Roald Dahl’s other books. The style of writing is simple and you can understand it very well.


 I would recommend this book to people who like Roald Dahl. It would be great to know his fantastic childhood and know about famous author more.
