Hello Everyone,
Today is Five on Friday (hosted by the fabulous girls April, Darci, Christina and Natasha) and the letter is P. On
with the show!
Percy Jackson
I have already told you about my love of Percy Jackson. The
characters are great, and I love the new series, Heroes of Olympus. The plot is
more complex, with quite difficult relationships between the young characters.
Friendships, relationships are studied, and are one of the most important
aspects of the series, how the kids interact with one another.

The
Prime of Miss Jean Brodie
The Prime of Miss Jean Brodie tells the story of a teacher
who has a strange amount of control over her pupils’ lives after she has
finished teaching them. She attempts to play God, and make the girls in her
image, to inspire them to do more than most girls aspire to, but she fails in
this attempt because she over-reaches herself, and doesn’t seem to know what
they should aspire to do. Even when they reach the highest they can get in
their field she is disappointed.

The Princess Diaries
A shy Manhatten teenager finds out she’s secretly a
Princess. Hilarity ensues. With every aspect of her life now under scrutiny
from the press, the public, and her grandmother, Mia Thermopolis-Renaldi learns
to run a country, be a princess, and how to follow her heart. Perfect for
pre-teen girls (and some older teenagers too!)

Power
of Five
I love Antony Horowitz. The first one of his books that I
read was a second hand copy from my cousin of The Falcon’s Malteser, and there
was no stopping me from devouring every single of his books that I came across.
I really liked the Alex Rider series, but I loved the Power of Five series. The
plot lines were fabulous, and I had to wait so long for the last instalment,
which kept me keen (check out my previous post on it). The characters were fab,
and I loved the conclusion. There is one thing that Antony Horowitz does well
is concluding a series. You are never disappointed with them, and you couldn’t
predict them, which I love.

Pride
and Prejudice
What can you say about the classic romance novel? Beautifully
written, tragic characters, good story. Enough said. I really enjoyed reading
it, and would like to again sometime.
