Never, Never: A Book Review

 

Do you ever wonder how characters such as Cruella deVil, Lady Tremaine, or the Evil Queen became the wicked villains you love to hate became so evil? What about the fearsome Captain Hook? Have you asked yourself how he got his hook or became terrified of a certain crocodile with a clock ticking inside of it? Well, if you need answers to any of these questions, the Villains series by Serena Valentino might have the answers.

In the latest installment of the series, readers hear the story of James a young boy who fell out of his pram on a walk with his nanny and became lost. He was found by Peter Pan and for six days lived in Never Land as a Lost Boy. If his mother hadn't found him after the seventh day, James would have spent a wonderful life in the magical place forever. As James grew up, he never forgot his time spent in Never Land and his lifelong wish was to return again. So, James and his loyal butler Mr. Smee traveled near and far and eventually joined Captain Blackbeard and his pirate crew. James became like a son to Blackbeard and after an encounter with a Kraken that nearly killed both men Blackbeard revealed a secret that he had been cursed by thee witches known as The Odd Sisters to live for eternity since Blackbeard had stolen some treasures from them. James knew that his captain had a wish to be at rest after years of danger and agreed to become the captain of the Jolly Roger. 

With the help of his new crew and his faithful friend Mr. Smee James journeyed to the Many Kingdoms and made a deal with the Queen of the Dead, Circe who was the daughter of The Odd Sisters. If James could return the Book of Fairytales to her, she would grant him passage to Never Land. Circe was unhappy for James because she saw his fate to become hated by those who he'd once called friends. James did not believe her and continued his journey, but in a magic mirror he spoke to Lucinda, one of the three witches and she lied to him and told him she was the only one to get him to Never Land, but in exchange, James had to kidnap Tinker Bell. Would James heed Circe's warning and stay with her in the Many Kingdoms, or would he fall into Lucinda's trap and become doomed to be enemies with his friends? Read the book to find out!

See You Yesterday: A Book Review

 

In See You Yesterday, by Rachel Lynn Solomon college freshman Barrett Bloom is ready for a fresh start! Especially after her nightmare senior year of high school where an article for the school newspaper sent her life downhill. Barrett is convinced that despite her miserable final days of high school, college was going to be better.

Unfortunately for her, things seem to take a turn for the worst when her ex-best friend Lucie becomes her college roommate. But Lucie is willing to try to make amends by inviting Barrett to a frat party. Barrett had long dreamed for an invitation like this, so she decides to go. But even a party seemed to be bad luck because when she tried to leave Barrett accidentally set the house on fire! Humiliated and afraid, Barrett flees back to her school only to discover that Lucie locked her out of their dorm. That night, Barrett has a miserable sleep on the common room couch and hopes her next day is better.

The next morning Barrett wakes up on the exact same day again! And the again the morning after that, and after that. Finally, she goes to ask Miles, a reserved, studious boy in her physics class for help and learns that he is also stuck in a time loop. Barrett and Miles must put aside their differences to solve the mystery of the loop. As they work, the two enemies slowly come to trust each other more and eventually sparks fly and a friendship becomes something more. Will loud mouthed, sarcastic Barrett and stiff, rigid Miles be able to escape the loop? Read the book to find out!
