The Alchemyst by: Micheal Scott

I couldn't find the rest of the Septimus Heap books, so I started this series instead; I will keep looking though!

So, I am reading a book called The Alchemyst.
I kind of like it so far; it is kind of a slow book, if you know what I mean. I'm afraid that it will turn into a really boring book, but I still like it. Sort of.
This book is about Nicholas Flamel, his wife Perenelle, and two teenagers, Sophie and Josh Newman, who are twins.
I'm not very far in the book, but it sounds like that there is a prophecy foretelling twins of the opposite sex are destined to take care of a special book, that gives the secret to eternal life and limitless precious stones and jewels(a.k.a. CASH MONEY). Flamel and his wife are the present caretakers of this book, and this guy called Dr. John Dee want the book so badly he would kidnap Perenelle.
Whoa, plot twist right?
Oops, I kinda gave it away.
Anyway.
So, after this happens, they go to one of "The Elders". Sound mysterious and ancient right? That's what I thought.
And that is where I am in this book; I hope you patient people out there give it a try. I wouldn't recommend it for readers who like action.
Happy Reading!!

Septimus Heap~Magyk by: Angie Sage

I haven't finished this book yet, but so far I like it!

This book is about a particular boy, named Septimus Heap. In the beginning of the book, the story doesn't follow Septimus, it follows his sister, Jenna. I don't want to give to much away about this book, because it's such a good one(so far anyway).
Because of certain events, Jenna, and a woman named Marcia, go into hiding at Jenna's Aunt Zelda's house. On the way, however, Jenna and Marcia pick up a boy who is around Jenna's age, who is 10 years old.
Jenna's father and one of her older brothers(she has six), Nicko, come to check on her, along with the dog, Maxie.
After this, a whole sequence of events turned this book from interesting to spectacular in a matter of a few pages! I am very excited to finish this book and continue with the next one and the next one and the next one and.....well, you get the point. ;)
Happy reading!

The Tales of Beedle the Bard by: J.K. Rowling

This book is mainly written for MAJOR HP fans, but anyone can enjoy this magical storybook!





































This book is a collection of magical fairy tales, including The Warlock's Hairy Heart, The Tale of the Three Brothers, and The Fountain of Fair Fortune.
I really like this book, because it kind of adds to the HP series, and it is just an interesting read.
After you read this one, you should read Quidditch Through the Ages and Fantastic Beasts and Where To Find Them.
I know this is kind of short, but I didn't have much time to put this together.
Keep reading!
