    goodbookgirl's book review was featured in Keeper of the Lost Cities.
    This is an AMAZING book. It is highly recommended by me. Anyway, it is about a twelve-year-old girl named Sophie Foster. She can read minds, and in the human world, she can hear everyone's thoughts--as if they were real human voices. It's horrible. It all started when she was only five years old, when she fell and hit her head. She wishes she weren't so different from everyone else--until she meets Fitz, a boy who can also read minds. He tells her that she is an elf and that they have been looking for her for twelve years, and takes her to the Lost Cities--the world where elves live. His father, Alden, tells Sophie that she has to leave her human family and leave the Forbidden Cities (the human world) forever. She moves in with a couple named Grady and Edaline who lost their daughter, Jolie, years ago. She makes new friends and passes her exams at school, but she's different in many ways: 1) Her eyes aren't blue like all the other elves--they're brown, 2) She's from the Forbidden Cities, 3) No one--not even the most highly skilled Telepaths can read her mind, and many other ways I can't even say. Will Sophie ever belong? Maybe she'll have to be kidnapped, put her best friend Dex in danger, get lost in Paris, and even stand on the verge of death to find her place in this strange yet exciting world. Read. This. Book. NOW!

    I haven't read this book in a while, but it's really good. It's about a girl named Winnie, and when she discovers a magical spring in the woods that gives eternal life she has to choose between living forever and a normal life. Her new friend begs her to drink the water when she is eighteen like him and they will run away and get married, but she does not. She decides that she is destined to die someday and gives the last of her magical water to a toad.

    I finished this book in just about 3 days. It was very good. I recommend it. It's 1937 in Dublin, Ireland, and Kathleen's mother has gone away to help a friend who is about to have a baby. Kathleen has to make porridge, dress her younger sisters, and get to school on time. Unfortunately, she burns the porridge, Patsy gets grease on her blouse, and Madge falls and cuts her knee. All this causes Kathleen to be late for school. The head nun calls Kathleen's mam over and tells her about Irish dancing lessons. Kathleen goes to dancing lessons, but learns that she has to pay a dear price. She is unable to attend dancing lessons until she receives a note from the dancing teacher, Mrs. Maguire, inviting her to take free Irish dancing lessons! Kathleen dances so well that Mrs. Maguire asks her to dance in the feis (pronounced "fesh")--an Irish dancing competition. But she can't afford a fancy Irish dancing costume, and then Mam gets sick. However, unexpected things happen when Polly steps in!
