The Midnight Children by Dan Gemeinhart
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

OMG what a great book---Ravani can't sleep and when he looks out the window and sees a van pull up and 7 children file out and enter the vacant house next door, with one of the children seeing him and putting her finger to her mouth, Ravani has so many questions! What follows next is a gripping story about evil, friendship, the meaning of family and how Ravani finds his voice. Living in Slaughterville, yes, they kill cows, Ravani's dad works there and it kills Ravani when he must take his dad lunch at the killing place. I could not stop turning the pages as I fell in love with Ravani, his family, his new friends but the evil that is lurking was suffocating. A must read, you will fall in love with Ravani, his family, and his new friends next door!

Runaways, Vol. 2: Best Friends Forever by Rainbow Rowell
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

I am really enjoying this series! I love learning more about their back story, about their pasts, and now their present. Vol 2 has the same gang of Nico, Karolina, Gertrude, Chase, Molly and Victor. As usual there is lots of drama, should Victor get a body to attach to his head, and will Julie Powers become one of the gang? Can we trust Molly's best friend, Abigail and what happens when Gert and Victor time travel? Jumping right into Vol. 3 & 4, great reads!!!
