Keeper of The Forest (The Guardian Series Book 1)
Alana is a bad ass who is supposed to be what everyone in her family is a keeper instead she gets the mark of a guardian and her grandpa is marked as a traitor. What is a teenage girl to do with a hot werewolf mentor and his annoying twin. She is stuck once she finds out how much Jax her mentor is in love with her. Can't wait for the next installment in this series. I kinda liked the world that Sorensen created but I wanted to know more about it.
Do they live in a completely different world? Also, I'm not grammar Nazi at all, I'm actually pretty terrible at grammar, so if I notice that a sentence is missing a comma or has left out a word then there's a problem. On a good note, I absolutely loved Alana's sass and her chemistry with Jax. I'm not really sure what to say about this book. It was good and a fun read. But it was also short. Although a lot happened in the book, it kind of felt like not much actually happened. I enjoyed the sassy lead character. She's feisty and strong, but also vulnerable.

Heading straight into the most terrible danger, it takes all his courage and cunning to survive. Crackling with suspense and daring, this is a fabulous story, showing that a bit of guts will take you a very long way. An imaginative blend of past and future technologies sets the scene for this feast of fantasy in which wheeled cities chase each other along the dried-out sea bed, in search of smaller settlements in a world ruled by "municipal Darwinism".
Orphan Tom Natsworthy, a third-class apprentice in the Guild of Historians, has the adventure of his life after he sets out to learn what has happened to his parents. The first in a gripping horror series for those with a strong stomach. A headlong roller coaster of an adventure in which the imagined becomes dangerously real. Meggie's father has the ability to bring characters alive from books — and two murderous characters are still abroad from the last time he read aloud, nine years before.
Meggie is thrown into an adventure that she will need all her courage to survive. A delightful and daring fantasy.

It is when the shadowy Keeper steps out of the dark woods to help him that El Gato's real journey towards becoming a footballing legend begins. Tense and atmospheric, this is a refreshing take on a familiar-theme, in which football almost becomes secondary to the satisfying magical realism throughout. A richly imagined world in which humans, animals and spirits from the past coexist. Forest-born Torak knows his childhood is over the day his father dies in his arms, killed by a bear possessed by an evil spirit. Now he must fulfil his destiny to kill the bear with the help of the world spirit.
Trusting no one and finding himself tricked, trapped and betrayed at almost every turn, Torak finds comfort in the support of a wolf cub.
Together, they journey until they reach the mountain of the world spirit and Torak's final sacrifice. The launch title of an exceptional series. Orphaned Maia is packed off to the Amazon to live with her only relations. Full of optimism about having a family at last, her hopes are quickly dashed when it becomes clear that her new-found relatives are cold, calculating and far more interested in Maia's allowance than anything else. Luckily, the nanny they have employed for their own girls is intelligent and resourceful. Soon, she and Maia team up, escape the house and enjoy some wonderful adventures deep in the Amazon rainforest.
A lyrical story that richly re-creates the lush Amazon and a fading colonial world. Ever wondered what James Bond was like before he became ? Orphaned Eton schoolboy James Bond trains for his later death-defying escapes by climbing school roofs and shinning down drainpipes as well as seeing off school bullies, whose character traits resemble his later opponents. Outside school, on holiday in Scotland, he also gets involved in his first adventure — uncovering the evil experiments taking place behind the walls of the neighbouring Laird's castle.
Youthful but charming, the young Bond is already a hero in the making. Heartbreaking and funny in near equal measure, the story of year-old Jamie's direct and wide-eyed telling of the emotional chaos he and his family live through following the death of his sister in a terrorist attack is poignant and warm-hearted.
Beginning a new life in the Lake District with his older sister and father, who drinks to assuage his grief and rage, Jamie knows he should feel sadder than he does. The truth is, he can hardly remember his sister, and the challenges at school and new friendships are more urgent — as is his yearning for his mother to return. Emotionally charged, this is a wonderfully touching story that never slips into worthiness.
Jacqueline Wilson's skill is being able to tell the story of complex ties children may have to deal with in an upbeat style that neither fudges the issues nor gives rise to despair.
How Dolphin and Star cope with the unpredictability of Marigold, their alcoholic, manic-depressive mother, is told entirely from the girls' perspective. A cracking thriller packed full of intrigue, danger and daring. Mune watches over Glim since she could freeze and break in the cold water. While underwater, the group meets Phospho, one of the previous Guardians of the Moon.
He wakes Glim up using his power and leads them to the entrance of the underworld, where Necross lives. Meanwhile, Leeyoon takes Mune's place in the temple of the Moon, but he can't control it.
Wynter's War
The Moon wanes and crumbles into dust, causing the temple to go mad and start galloping everywhere. It ends up arriving in the underworld where Mune, Sohone, and Glim are. Mune, accompanied by Glim, takes care of the Moon while Sohone dives into the underworld to recover the Sun. Mune figures out that he can calm the temple of the Moon by using his magic glitter powers. Then, Leeyoon admits to him that the Moon is lost, but Mune and Glim go into the moon quarry of the world of dreams to carve a new crescent.
The new moon is launched into the sky. With this task done, Mune and Glim rejoin Sohone in the world of darkness. During this time, Sohone is surrounded by a mass of pale snakes who make fun of him and try to make him go mad with hatred. Sohone is saved by Phospho's intervention, who sacrifices himself to calm and free Sohone destroying the snake wall in the process. Sohone, Mune and Glim then confront Necross and his imps. Sohone is going strongly against Necross, who he doesn't manage to weaken. Mune finally gets rid of one of the imps. Glim finds the Sun and blows on it to revive its fire, but that causes her to melt.
Mune begins to cry thinking she was gone. He then uses his Glitter powers to defeat Necross and realises that Necross is influenced by a pale snake, which he then pulls out and crushes. Necross regains his Guardian of the Sun appearance he had before getting corrupted by envy, then turns to stone. The defeat of Necross leads to peace for the world, and the two young Guardians are able to resume the normal trajectories of their temples. Mune also resculpts Glim, and the combined energy of the sun and moon at daybreak with Glim's held fragment of the moon revives her.
Mune and Glim meet up and kiss each other before going around the world on the temple of the Moon. He developed and created a more complex poetic universe with its own cosmogony and different inhabitants related to the Sun and the Moon.
