This was great. Jo is a Chinese-American girl living in the South. Her and her adoptive father, Old Gin, face rampant discrimination, especially considering the fact that they are treated as "in-between" - they are not colored, but they are not white, either. They are treated poorly, while also facing the realization that many segregation rules do not seem to specifically apply to them. When Jo is fired from her job, she takes up her previously position as lady's maid for a girl she grew up being mistreated by. At the same time, the newspaper shop they live under is at risk of going out of business if they don't come up with some great new idea to get a whole lot of subscribers. Enter Jo, who under the anonymous name of Miss Sweetie decides to start writing an advice column that challenges many of the racist and sexist ideas her society is filled with. Of course, this brings with it a whole host of problems - Jo's writing is a crime in and of itself, and she will be chased out of town if anyone finds out that she is Miss Sweetie. She also has to balance staying hidden underneath the printshop, bite her tongue when it comes to the cruel things her mistress says, and ignore the fact that Old Gin seems to be doing something sneaky that she worries may have to do with marrying her off to a stranger. And, of course, she's still curious about where she came from - who were her parents, and why did they abandon her with Old Gin to begin with? Jo is a great role model for young girls to look up to - she is spunky and has her own thoughts and opinions that she is not afraid to share with others. She is a big risk taker, and an absolute delight to read about.

In the book What Happened at Midnight, Frank and Joe Hardy had to keep a special electronic away from bandits, smugglers, and gangs. They were basically playing keep away from the bandits, smugglers, and gangs. They had to protect it because their father was helping the owner of the special electronic be safe.

It was a great book to just relax and enjoy reading.

WOW! This was a very fast read: I finished the book within 2 hours. Great thriller book that involves the paranormal as well. You really start to feel connected to the main character. It was not like anything I had read prior. Great young adult read.

Horror meets young adult in this book! I was glued to the pages and actually finished this book in one sitting (yes all 450+ pages). This should be on your next read if you are a horror fan; the ending was my favorite part of this book, so read it all!

Dog Man Unleashed is about dog man being the worst dog in the beginning and the best dog at the end. There is also a villain called Petey that made a flat paper copy of himself, which turned to life. This all happened on Chief's birthday.

Loved this series!!! It was long but well worth it!

We love love love Hippos at our house! This was such a fun book to read and learn through. And I always love the AV options to go online and learn even more!! I am so happy I found this book because before it I had no idea about hippos being able to close their noses and ears when going in the water!!!

It was an interesting read and I discovered some new facts. In a nutshell it explains how Earth was formed and how everything lined up just right at the precise times and distances to create life as we know it. It delves into the subjects of chemistry, biology, and physics throughout, while naming notable scientists, physicists, etc. Overall, it took me quite some time to get through the book because it did not hold my interest, page after page.

I really enjoyed this book. I found the characters to be very well developed and as I continued to read it I felt as if I actually knew them all. I typically enjoy mystery and thriller books, but I found myself not wanting to put this book down and highly recommend it.
