Ever since I was little, reading has been a huge part of my life, and even now I find it is one of my favorite things to do!

Artemis Fowl

Artemis Fowl is a modern story with re-imagined versions of fairies. Written by an Irishman, this book has many good components, and a few not as good. Eoin Colfer really connects you to his character…

The first book in The Ruby Red Trilogy, Ruby Red ends with a suspenseful and romantic cliffhanger that will leave you dying for more. I couldn't wait to get my hands on the next book, and almost decid…
