Emily Windsnap and the Land of the Midnight Sun by Liz Kessler

This book is about Emily and Aaron, who go to the Land of the Midnight Sun to find who took Neptune's dreams and who is threatening Neptune's power. I like that the book doesn't tell you everything at the moment so it isn't that obvious what is coming next. You would like this book if you like mysteries. If you are between ages 9-12 you would like this book.

Emily Windsnap and the Ship of the Lost Souls by Liz Kessler

This book is about a field trip and Emily needs to go to Atlantis to find the wife of the owner of the field trip island and the other passengers on a ship. I dislike how there is a cliffhanger at the end of the book which is the end of the series. You would like this if you like spooky ghost like things. If your between ages 9-12 you would like this book.

This book is about a girl named Emily who is shy and introverted and is friends with Sloane, a wild extroverted person.

This format includes flashbacks on certain subjects.

In The Queen of the Tearling, Kelsea Raleigh knows her fate from birth: the next Queen of the Tearling. She wants to change laws but ultimately change her world. To complete that daunting task, Kelsea is forced to use magic and become a fierce warrior: her definition of a perfect queen. This book does have a slow start, but pulls you in all the same. I would recommend this book to teens who enjoy a good fantasy book.

Everyone, particularly Emmy, is having trouple figuring out what to do next and solve how to help Olver feel normal again in his community. While this is a story about love and loss, it is primarily focused on friendship. Since it does have a lot of bad words, I would recommend this book to teens who are at least 12 and up.
