If you like suspenseful books where you are left with cliff hangers and having to be on the edge of your seat, this is the book for you. Red Moon at Sharpsburg is by Rosemary Wells and is Historical fiction. The book was excellent because of the suspense, the journeys in the book, and the somewhat of a love story.
This book describes the south side of the civil war. Although, India Moody and her family think that the way of the north is the correct way to deal with this, she and her family need to go with the south because they live in northern Virginia. India Moody is the main character, and is also the narrator. This book was suspenseful, and was a test in love.
India Moody is a young girl who doesn’t like to learn the ordinary scriptures and handwriting skills other girls are expected to learn. Instead, India wants to learn about biology and science. India soon used the science and the biology as an advantage when her father went to war. Unfortunately, India’s father got sick. India needed to go to the battlefield and give her the medicine before it’s too late.
Red Moon at Sharpsburg was an excellent book. It was a suspenseful but yet somewhat of a love story. The book had some words that would be hard for a 13 year old to understand, but I did understand what was going on. The author also did a very good job with having cliff hangers in between chapters. I found the book for interesting and I found myself asking what was going to happen next. I would recommend show more this book to people who like suspense of a journey or people who like to sit on the edge of their chair wondering what was going to happen. I would give this book 10 stars out of 10.
I absolutely love this book. I never wanted to put it down. I learned something’s I didn't know before. It showed me how the war life really was like for a family. This book has taught me so much and I really enjoyed it. show less

The Lightning Thief is a book about a boy named Percy who finds out he is the son of a god. Percy faces many challenges. For example, when Percy went on a quest, he fought with three old women called furies. The setting of this book includes Camp Half Blood, Aunty M's, and Percy's school. There are also many cliffhangers in this book. For example, Riordan leaves us in suspence on page 167 when he ended the chapter with the quote, "we plunged into the woods as the rain poured down, the bus in flames behind us, and nothing but darkness ahead." Percy Jackson found out later in the book that he has more power in water because he is the son of Poseidon on page 121 when he gets healed by water. Percy also has a weapon called riptide that can cut through anything. I recommend this book because it is very interesting an suspenseful. I liked this book because it definetly fits me perfectly!
