Fablehaven
Fablehaven By Brandon Mull
This is yet another Magic book. Yes. Well this one is pretty good, compared to others it lives up to expectations. Reading this book had me laughing and interested for most of the book. This is pretty good for a kids book being read by an adult. Overall I can’t wait to read it with my kids (they are still interested in mainly eating them so it is a while more before we get into chapter books).
This book follows two kids being watched by their grandparents while their parents go on a very long cruise. They at first are bored being with their grandparents in the middle of nowhere but soon find through a journey of discovery that they are surrounded by an amazing preserve of magical creatures.
They have fun times and also quite of few struggles throughout the book. Overall they grow in character and learn important lessons while saving the day (mainly caused by their own mistakes ironically). This book has morals every parent would want their kid to learn!
Overall I give it a 4 out of 5!

Fifty Places to Go Birding Before You Die
Fifty Places to Go Birding Before You Die: Birding Experts Share The World’s Greatest Destinations
By Chris Santella
If you a bird watcher this is a destination guide for you! This is a book for bird watchers. If your not a bird watcher and want a gift for this is also for you, but otherwise this review isn’t for you.
Santella talks to the luminaries of the bird watching sport and finds out the most amazing places they have been or would go to bird watch. Included with the recommended destinations are travel ideas and tips, but most of all stories about the places that make them even more incredible.
This book is great, especially of you love to scheme and dream about traveling. It also does quite well at including a variety of destinations, not just destinations most people could never even dream about going. About half of the destinations are in the United States making the book even or useful for the average birdwatcher.
My only negative about the book is that there are only 50 spots, and no real information about each area on a broader scale suggesting other close by hot spots and things that can be done around those destinations. Many places listed are only one hot spot among many. Otherwise this is a great book, and a great starting place for finding an incredible place to go birding!
Rating 4/5.
