The Kane Chronicles!
Since I've been posting about Rick Riordan's books the past few days, I might as well continue the trend. Recently, I've been trying to reread all of this author's amazing books, and I just finished the Kane Chronicles. These books focus on Egyptian mythology and they're absolutely fascinating. This series has two main characters, siblings named Carter and Sadie Kane. They grew up in different homes and couldn't be more different! After spending one Christmas with their father, everything is different; Carter and Sadie realize they're living in a world with Egyptians Gods. Not only that, but the world is ending soon! And like every other book ever written, it's up to them to stop it. These books are really interesting and I learned quite a bit about Egyptian mythology. My favorite Egyptian Goddess is Bast, the Cat Goddess. As well as any other book written by Rick Riordan, I highly recommend this series.

Maze Runner!
Have you heard of the Maze Runner series? Probably, it's gotten a lot more popular since the first book in the series has been made into a movie (with the other two in the series to follow). Since the Maze Runner series has gotten a lot more popular, I figured it would be good to tell about my opinion of it. Here's the basic idea of the first book: One day, a kid wakes up with no idea where or who he is. He learns that all of the kids around him were the same way and they have learned to survive while surrounded by a massive maze. But Thomas (the main character), is different than the rest of the kids and things change when he shows up. *Que dramatic music*
The plot line of the first book is fantastic, it's super interesting and keeps your attention. The first book, in my opinion, is the best of the series. The second book in the series, Scorch Trails, was great as well, though maybe not as great as the first one, they add different elements to keep the story interesting. But, unfortunately, I feel the books decreased in quality as more were made (like the Hunger Games series), and the last book was not the greatest. Though it still has the characters you learn to love in it and it still follows the path introduced throughout the first two books, it was not as exciting as the other two books, yet it was still a good book. There is also a prequel (the Kill Order) before the first book takes place if you still can't get enough of the fictional world created by James Dashner. If these sound interesting to you, you should check them out. Below are the trailers to the first two books in this series.

Witch and Wizard!
What the heck, let's review another James Patterson series while we're at it. James Patterson writes a wide variety of books from kids to adults from sci-fi to mystery to fantasy. This series is a fantasy series. Witch and Wizard are about siblings who discover they're magical during a mass genocide of magical people. They are locked up, they get help, they escape, they get locked up again, they escape and are on the run, and they learn to use their powers along the way and discovery they are some of the most powerful magical kids in the world. This series consists of four books: Witch and Wizard, the Gift, the Fire, and the Kiss. The first three books were pretty good, but the fourth one wasn't the greatest. (And no, it's not because it's called the Kiss, the story wasn't as good in that one as the others in my opinion). If these books sound good to you, check them out!
