Theodore Boone: Kid Lawyer is about an eighth grader named Theodore Boone whose parents are both lawyers. A man named Mr Duffy is accused of killing his wife, as she had a million dollar life insurance. Theodore receives information that could change the outcome of the trial dramatically. I personally liked this book as it is a page turner and I could not stop reading after reading a couple pages. My favorite character is Theodore, as he is smart and I can relate to him. I recommend this book to readers from 6th to 8th grade. I give this book 4 out of 5 stars as it is a pretty good book.

Michael Vey: Rise of the Elgen is the 2nd book in the Michael Vey series. It stars Michael Vey, a boy who is one of 17 children who have electrical-based powers. They are being researched by a company called The Elgen. Some of the “electric children” are on Vey’s side, but some support The Elgen. Since the Elgen kidnapped Michael’s mom, Michael goes to one of their bases to rescue her. This book has lots of action and is a page-turner. This series is also very similar to other series, namely the Percy Jackson series, so if you enjoyed those books, you’ll enjoy this book too. I recommend this book to kids in 5th to 8th grade. This book gets a 4 out of 5 from me.

To Kill a Mockingbird is an inspiring novel about the 1930s and racial inequality. The book focuses on a young girl named Jean Louise Finch, or Scout, living in a small town called Maycomb. Her father, a lawyer, gets appointed to defend a man who is convicted of rape in court. My favorite part of this book is the trial, as you get to learn more about the racial problems in the early 1900s. I would recommend this book to a mature reader who is at least a middle schooler as this book has some mature content and themes.
