I am a lover of books; I can't get enough of them. Come check out my recommendations for readers of all ages! I hope you find some new reading treasures for you and your family here. Three star books are good, four star books are great, five star books are outstanding. In general, if I didn't like it, I don't even blog about it. Recommendations are based on my personal opinions, and cautions are listed for the sake of sensitive and/or younger readers.

TUESDAY: Spy X
Evie and Andrew are 12 year old twins. Their mother disappeared on their 11th birthday and they've moved to a new town with their father who is in the military. But something strange is going on in their new town. First is the mysterious package that arrives for them. Then there is their unusual neighbor who shreds documents in the middle of the night and tosses burglars from her house but never calls the police. All of the pieces start to come together, but will any of them help the children find their mother? [for ages 9 to 12]
The first two books in this series were terrific. The mystery is well planned and each book ends with a scene that makes the reader want to find the next book immediately. Unfortunately, I haven't found the third and fourth books yet. I am hoping to track them down through inter-library loan. The author is currently writing the popular series, The 39 Clues.
