Breaking Dawn

I, recently, finished the fourth book in the Twilight Saga that a lot of people have been talking about. I decided I'd put up my review on it while it was still pretty fresh in my mind, so here it is!

The Twilight Saga book 4: Breaking Dawn by Stephenie Meyer:

I'm very disappointed in this conclusion to the Twilight Saga. There was way too much romance in it for me. I was hoping for more action scenes, or something, and I got a love story with a little bit of a problem at the end. I know these are supposed to be books about a love story, but I liked it when it was half that and half action and stuff, with evil vampires going against good vampires, and stuff. I did, though, like the suspense and little bits of some sort of problem with bad vampires after all the love stuff. Sure, there is a problem throughout most of the book, but not the kind of problem I'd expect.

I think I'm going to give this book 1 star, because it flat out stunk.

The Dangerous Days of Daniel X

Here's another review, on The Dangerous Days of Daniel X by James Patterson:

Daniel X is about, well, Daniel X, of course! Daniel's parents were alien hunters, until they suffered an unmerciful death, and now Daniel's taking their place. His goal is to take revenge on the evil alien that ended his parents' lives. It's a very fast-paced action book, with sarcasm and adventure. Patterson also wrote my all-time favorite book, Maximum Ride, and it's sequels! This book is great, though I must warn you that they do use a little language in it...

Anyways, I definetly give this book 4 stars (a new favorite for sure)!

Journey to the Center of the Earth

Journey to the Center of the Earth is about a professor, Trevor Anderson, and his visiting nephew, Sean Anderson. Sean's dad, Max, has a copy of the book Journey to the Center of the Earth and had some notes in the book about how he's planning on going to the center of the earth. I've, personally, seen at least 4 or 5 of these movies, and this one's by far my favorite! It was action-packed, had lots of adventure, and I loved it all the way through. I didn't see it in 3-D, though, which I'm sure I would've loved too! There was one other Journey to the Center of the Earth that I really liked, but this one makes it to the top of my list of the Journey to the Center of the Earth movies. Things may seem a bit predictable, but I still enjoyed it a lot!

I'll give this movie 3 stars!

Chasing Vermeer

Oh, gosh! I haven't updated since MAY! Wow, that's a long time ago. Well, sorry for the looong delay, but I've been reading alot and lots has been happening. Here's my review on just one of the books I've read...
Chasing Vermeer by Blue Balliett:

Chasing Vermeer is about two kids, Calder Pillay and Petra Andalee, on a search to find a stolen painting by Vermeer. The crime turns into a worldwide event, and a big change in history, and just about everyone knows about it. But, it's only Petra and Calder that figure out that there may be more to it than what it seems. There's been a series of even small events or bits of information, and they all seem to connect in certain ways!

This book is exciting, adventurous, and kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time. It was a great read, and never got boring. What I really liked about it, though, was that the characters were so well drawn out, and you really felt like you knew them. They describe things well in this book, but they're not too descriptive. The way these characters think is really interesting, and sort of exciting in a way.

I give it three and a half stars, and can't wait to read the second book!
