It was interesting at the start but after it kinda went down, but I do recommend it.

A conclusion to the story that began with Brave New Girl finds Dahlia 16 and Trigger 17 fleeing from the forces that destroyed her sister clones because of her rule-breaking only to be confronted by an identical who should not even exist, a teen media sensation who publicly plans her huge wedding, unaware of her secret origins.
Student review
This book is about Dahlia 16 and Waverly Whitmore, long-lost clones. They tell the story of their chaotic life and how they solve the problems that may occur. There are some slow parts, but there are more fast and exciting parts.

This book took a while to read, but it sucks you into reading it every second. In the beginning it can be a little slow though. There are some sad parts, love parts and death scenes but overall, is an amazing book. These events just help it get better. You have to read the books in order and you should definitely watch the movies after you read them. This is definitely one of my favorite books I have read.
“The Hunger Games” is an excellent book for people that like action. There is a small amount of romance as well if you're into that 🤢.
Catching Fire by Suzanne Collins

Student reviews
This book is such a great book. It is the second book in the Hunger Games series so make sure you read the first one. It always makes you want to read more. It is about Katniss’s and Peeta’s victory tour and how the President hates them.He thinks they are trying to get people to overthrow him. He makes them go back into the Hunger Games again.
Although it is a long book, you want to keep reading every page. (Please Note: You must read “The Hunger Games first)

Student review
This book was very sci-fi which I thought made it really good. It had an interesting story line line too. But it was a little hard to follow.

Student review
It was the fourth book in the giver series but it was really more of a sequel to the giver and for anyone who wondered what happened to Jonas and Gabriel I definitely recommend this book.
