I have been reading the Michael Vey series since I was young and I couldn't wait to get my hands on this next book. Michael Vey, Battle of the Ampere by Richard Paul Evans is such a great book that I couldn't put it down and finished it in two days. There is foreshadowing all throughout the book to the point when they are almost even handed a prophecy. In the book, spoken from a Amarrcan chief, he says, "You must choose between the lives of s few you love or the loves of many you don't know." This foreshadowing was so fascinating I couldn't help but read on and see what he would have to do. In the it was even better than I was hoping for having a big fight to stop Dr.Hatch.
Another great thing about my book is the never ending suspense. This will lead you onto so many different paths and you think of every option they could do to either escape from the Peruvian army or to apprehend Dr. Hatch. While Dr. Hatch knows that Michael will always be coming for him because if he doesn't attempt to stop him he would be putting the whole world's lives st risk. Michael Vet is one of the best series I have ever read and greatly recommend to anybody. One main point I left out is that all of the main characters have powers where they can use electricity in some type of way excluding Ostin, Wade, and Jack. My question is, if you could have a power involving electricity what would it be? (Some of the powers involve shooting lightning or rebooting people's minds.)

Setting of House of Hades
Setting
I have recently finished the books "Key of Minds" and "Steelheart" and am now moving on to the book "House of Hades" by Rick Riordan. I am about 100 pages into the book and the setting in the book has changed many many times. The book started at the Mediterranean Sea, with Hazel, Piper, Leo, Jason, and Percy's friends all trying to find the Doors of Death to retrieve them from Tartarus which leads me to my next setting. Percy and Annabeth, have recently fallen into Tartarus after injuring Arachne and are now wondering through the huge underworld trying to get out knowing that anything and everything in Tartarus will try and kill them. A major place in Tartarus so far is the River named Pyriphlegethon. the river of fire, which goes on throughout the whole underworld and that's when Percy and Annabeth decide to follow it to see if it leads to the doors.In the book you also can make a prediction of where they are going to House of Hades because one, the Doors of Death are located in there, two, Hecate tells them of their rivals waiting there, and three, it's in the books name itself. The setting moves from place to place so often that it is sometimes hard to remember where they are, having to go on many side quests to help them in the main one. I can't wait to see where this book leads me and to see what complications get in their way. My question is, if you came along them and they asked for help, what would you do?

Why I stopped reading the Hobbit
The book, The Hobbit, is said to be amazing and a great read that makes you want to continue reading throughout the whole night. Although it also has a 4.19 rating out of 5 on goodreads.com, I can't stand reading the book. Maybe I wasn't far enough into it because to me it was a total bore. I may have said it was a really good book but that's because I heard it was going to get better and I was a little biased from part 1 of the hobbit trilogy. I may continue reading some other time but not now.
Also I have a continuous flow of books from the library of books that my mom thinks I will find interesting. It pressured me to read The Hobbit quicker and made me realize it was something I didn't want to be doing. Now that I have gave reasons for discontinuing the read of The Hobbit, I am now reading a book called The Eye of Minds, by James Dashner. My summary of what this book is about will be in my next post. My question is, do you read a book before you go watch the movie?
