Stormbreaker [an alex rider adventure ]

My rating: "get it now"

Stormbreaker is a book about a 14 year-old SPY! [WOW] His parents died when he was young. Then his Uncle dies. His first mission is to find out if Herod Sayle is putting poison in the computers he is making [A.K.A Stormbreaker].

Redwall

My rating: "put it on your birthday list"

This book by Brian Jacques has a great beginning and middle... with only a decent ending. Like Dragon Rider you may find it boring at the beginning, but it get's MUCH better. Redwall is a book about a mouse who has a dream of becoming a warrior. All in all it ROCKS! [Besides the end].

Dragon Rider

My rating : "put it on your birthday list"

Overall it's great, but you might find Cornelia Funke's Dragon Rider boring or long or too easy to read. Hang in there though - it gets better as it goes along. All in all, if you are a young reader looking for a challenging or bigger book don't look further! TRY Dragon Rider!

Sly 3

My rating: "put it on your birthday list"

Sly 3 is fun, but difficult. The multiplayer games are exellent - all of them are playable in 3-D. here are a ton of playable characters as you advance. It also has an AWFUL ending. It should take you a long time to beat the game. Don't get it if you are an inexperienced gamer. It is for PS2 ONLY.

my ratings system

hey there everyone. now that I've started my own blog to review books and video games, I thought I'd explain my ratings system. here we go....

"get it now" - this is the highest honor for any video game or book that I review.
"put it on your birthday list" - i give this rating to a book or game that's worth getting.
"don't waste your allowance" - pretty self-explanatory.

any questions?
