"Number the Stars"
Reviewed by MartaIf you like lots of adventure and suspense then I advise you to read this book. The setting is in 1943 when World War 2 is taking place. A girl named Annemarie and her family is struggling to keep their Jewish friends hidden from the Nazis who want to kill or imprison every Jew in their town. It was very dangerous and risky to hide any Jews because if you were caught hiding them, you would also be severely punished. As you can tell, this book is full of action. It's also one of the best books I have ever read. -

This boy finds 99 cupboards beneath the plaster on a wall of his attic room. He soon discovers that these cupboards lead to other worlds, some of which he ends up exploring. It's a pretty good book, with a lot of action. It's a little creepy, probably not a good right before bed read. There's a lot of suspense, which keeps you reading. -
100 cupboards
Reviewed by ClaireI didn't find 100 cupboards that interesting. I didn't think it had that much suspense and i didn't think it was that much of a page turner. I found the book boring and i wouldn't read it again. -
