Reacting to reviews I wrote in middle school.

Hey guys!

I’m…..facing a ….blogger’s slump. Something that’s never happened to me before.

So today, I’ll be going through my page on my library’s page and finding out books I read when I was younger. Well, in 3rd-6th grade.

We had this beautiful library, that was literally my favourite place. Our librarians were wonderful! Such a cosy and nice environment. I used to review books on the website, just because, well, I wanted people to know my opinions on books. I do think that was kindof when I started loving talking about books. So say hello to the Grade 5 Sep!

I’ll just be showing you some books I reviewed. I reviewed like 104 books, sooo, can’t show you all of them can I?

I’m soooo nervous, but let’s get started.

#1 High Time For Heroes- Mary Pope Osborne

There was this time in 2015, I was OBSESSED with the magic tree house. I had their spot on the shelf memorised and I would go check that spot every week and then grab whatever I found. I still think I haven’t read the whole lot, they’re a lot of books in this series. Neither did I read them in order. I loved all the books so much. The whole concept is fabulous. Mary Pope Osborne was a goddess for me, and I hope she is for many other young leaders.

#2 Charlie and the Chocolate Factory- Roald Dahl

Here comes a classic. I still love this book, and one of my literally dreams is to own a first edition of this book. To be very honest, I’m proud of this review. It makes you want to read the book. Yes, I know it sounds like the synopsis thing, BUT, it’s good by 10 year old standards.

#3 Coraline- Neil Gaiman

Yeah, I didn’t like it the first time. Coraline, isn’t supposed to be a child’s book. At the very least, it wasn’t meant for me. I detested it. But now, thankfully, after 2 rereads, I can appreciate Neil Gaiman’s writing.

#4 Pippi Longstocking- Astrid Lindgren

I had actually forgotten I ever read this book? I still have no idea what it was about. The review does sound pretty cool tho. I love her name. #PippiAllTheWay

#5 Geronimo Stilton Little Women- Geronimo Stilton

Hey! I remember this book. It was the first I had ever read about Little Women. I loved the illustrations in this one, I even drew them down in this notepad I had. And I was super proud of them. Also Geronimo Stilton is just F-A-B.

#6 Dork Diaries : TV Star – Rachel Renee Russel

Righty, so I loved these books. I loved them till like grade 8? I actually own the last couple of books in the series. It’s actually pretty good for middle schoolers. Def recommended.

#7 Operation Bunny : The Fairy Detective Agency’s first case- Sally Gardner

I USED TO LOVE THIS BOOK. I ADORED THIS. THE CONCEPT. WOW.

#8 The curse of the jelly babies – Karen McCombie

Look how wonderful this review is. Like, much better than I expected for an 11 year old. Karen McCombie has always been a favourite author of mine.

#9 Angels Like Me – Karen McCombie

I do remember this book. It was a trilogy and really cool. I had my first attempt at a book photoshoot with this trilogy. I have no idea what is was about? But it was nice. Also this review is just….very bad. I think I was trying to say that it’s very relatable? **girls. Forgive me people, looks like 11 year old was also suffering from the typo syndrome.

#10 The Girl Who Rode The Wind – Stacy Gregg

I saved the best one for the last. I do not remember what exactly happened in this book. What I do know, is that it played a huge part in motivating me to read it more. This was the first book that brought tears to my eyes. I really do recommend it to all the people out there.

I would definitely recommend all, and I mean all except Coraline to all 7-13 year olds out there! Read it and let me know what you think!

And that’s a wrap! I’m actually quite happy with how this post turned out. I’m still in a blogger’s block…soo..you know…yeah. Anyway, tell me your thoughts about this post! Would you like a Pt 2?

Let’s prattle in the comments!
