Amazon.com Amazon Best of the Month, May 2008: Stephenie Meyer, creator of the phenomenal teen-vamp Twilight series, takes paranormal romance into alien territory in her first adult novel. Those wary of sci-fi or teen angst will be pleasantly surprised by this mature and imaginative thriller, propelled by equal parts action and emotion. A species of altruistic parasites has peacefully assumed control of the minds and bodies of most humans, but feisty Melanie Stryder won't surrender her mind to the alien soul called Wanderer. Overwhelmed by Melanie's memories of fellow resistor Jared, Wanderer yields to her body's longing and sets off into the desert to find him. Likely the first love triangle involving just two bodies, it's unabashedly romantic, and the characters (human and alien) genuinely endearing. Readers intrigued by this familiar-yet-alien world will gleefully note that the story's end leaves the door open for a sequel--or another series. --Mari Malcolm Product Description The... See less

Evil Dr. Bloor believes that he has resurrected a despicable ancestor without realizing the B on the casket stood for Berenice, the good queen, rather than the warrior Borlath. The endowed children gain another protector, but three more endowed students arrive at the academy and use their gifts of magnetism and telekinesis to aid the Bloors.

Description: The second book in Nimmo's Children of the Red King series opens in 1916, as Henry Yewbeam and his brother play a game of marbles. When Henry picks up an unfamiliar marble, he vanishes and winds up at Charlie's school. more What critics think: Children's Literature Review: In January, 1916, Henry Yewbeam picks up a mysterious glowing glass ball that comes rolling towards him while he is playing marbles. The ball is, in truth, a time twister that his nasty cousin Zeke has made sure Henry will find. The unsuspecting Henry gazes into the time twister and is transported far into the future where he meets Charlie Bone, his great nephew and reluctant student at Bloor's Academy where Henry's now ancient, but still nasty cousin, Ezekiel, lives.

Jenny Nimmo, author of Midnight for Charlie Bone, is one such author. Creating a Harry Potter-like series entitled "Children of the Red King," Nimmo spins her story off of the child mystery theme set in a school for uniquely gifted children.

About the book: Description: A delightfully dishy novel about the all-time most impossible boss in the history of impossible bosses. Andrea Sachs, a small-town girl fresh out of college, lands the job "a million girls would die for."

The police, the local townspeople and hospital staff as well as Count Olaf, the man they are accused of murdering, are in pursuit. The treacherous Count, who engineered their parent's demise, desperately wants the Beaudelaire family fortune; his only means of attaining it is to eliminate the children.

What critics think: Children's Literature Review: The pseudonymous Snicket returns in fine fettle for "Series of Unfortunate Events, Book 4." In this episode the three Baudelaire orphans are shipped off to labor like serfs in the Lucky Smells Lumbermill, being fed nothing but a stick of chewing gum for lunch, nasty casseroles for dinner--and always, always living in fear that their nemesis, the villainous Count Olaf, is lurking somewhere very near, about to pounce. It remains, however, irrelevant what gloom and doom actually descends upon these children while Snicket is the omniscient narrator in charge. His marvelous asides and play on words are what enliven these Victorian-style satires. It's unclear how many actual children there are out there who can follow Snicket's verbal swoops, but he's a joy to the literate adult. Reviewed by Kathleen Karr. See less

This second in "A Series of Unfortunate Events" continues as part Victorian melodrama, part parenthetical digressions by the narrator. The plot becomes almost irrelevant as one waits for the next definition. ("To perpetuate a deception" is defined as meaning, "lie, lie, lie.") Obviously Lemony Snicket is having a roaring good time. Perhaps he/she ought to be unmasked along with Count Olaf in their next adventure. Reviewed by Kathleen Karr. See less

About the book: Description: Lemony Snicket's woeful stories about the Baudelaire siblings continue with this wretched tenth installment of the bestselling series. more What critics think: Children's Literature Review: The tenth of the popular "A Series of Unfortunate Events" books, this novel follows the three Baudelaire orphans as they clash with Count Olaf and seek news of a missing parent. The melodramatic editorializing on the part of the narrator that has characterized the Lemony Snicket books is by no means absent here: fans will relish the adept word-play that accompanies accounts of Sunny's kidnapping, Violet and Klaus' rescue attempts, and Count Olaf's gang of eccentric villains. This novel also shows some additional development of the characters of Sunny and Violet Baudelaire. Sunny, once separated from her siblings, must think and act for herself, giving the reader a new sense of the personality behind this youngest Baudelaire child. Violet, on the other hand, meets Quigley... See less
