Adventure

The Sword Thief

Reviewer's Name : 
Aoife W.

Each book of the 39 Clues is written by a different author and this author writing style was very boring and weak. Things I hated about the book were that he managed to turn a cold,cruel,classy,and prim group of enemies into a bunch of blubbering idiots. He also added some mild toilet humor such as being bitten by a guard dog on the bum exsoping pink boxer shorts, and someone forgetting to flush (yuck). Peter Lerangris added a whole lot of rubbishy things which just confuses the reader. I strongly advise you to NOT read this book.

One False Note

Reviewer's Name : 
Aoife W.

One False Note is the second book in the popular 39 Clues, when I first looked at the books I assumed that the author just wrote the book and came up with the contest so that people would buy the books, but I was wrong the books are gripping, smart,and good for almost all ages! When Amy and Dan escape from the catacombs they come out with a sheet of music by Mozart then they figure out that it means they must travel to Venice to find the next clue. This exciting book contains thrilling boat races, secret passages,back stabbing relatives, and major discoveries.

City of Secrets

City of Secrets was an adventurous book full of treachery and danger. I believe the author’s purpose in writing this novel was to tell readers to be more confident in life and just be your self. Matt was a round character in the story. He changed from being an insecure dyslexia teen to being a confident young man striving to attend university or college in the future. I feel happy that Matt is enjoying his life and the Stravaganti are safe from the Di Chimichi’s. Even though Matt had dyslexia, he was able to move on through life with confidence.
