GODDESS GIRLS: ARTEMIS THE BRAVE

In this book, ARTEMIS THE BRAVE, Artemis falls in love with a boy named Orion. Artemis always takes Orion’s side even though he was just a phony. Like at a archery contest with Apollo Artemis loses because Orion takes her arrows she got for her birthday. She notices what he’s doing and she wants to get revenge.

Orion was a main character in a play called “The Arrow.” One week before the play Orion leaves the school for a different part on Earth. When he leaves the lead role is played Dionysus, the star in many other plays. Orion comes back to MOA (Mount Olympus Academy) to be in the play. Zeus says no way boy I have a special job for you. I hope he wasn’t afraid of heights because he had seven stars hanging his arms and legs and they hooked him up to wires swinging down from the ceiling at the end. He always wanted to be a star.

I liked this book because it was funny. I liked the way they described the characters also. They made me feel like I was actually in MOA. Even when I was tired, I didn’t want to stop reading. I was excited to read this book because Artemis is my favorite goddesses. She wasn’t really how I thought she would be, but it was still a good book.

Olive's Ocean is a good book

Olive's Ocean is a good book because of the plot.Olive is a girl who wants to be friends with Martha Boyle. She says so in her diary. But Olive dies in a car accident before she can tell Martha. Olive's mom finds the diary and gives Martha the page with her name on it. After she sees the page, Martha goes on a vacation to her grandmother's house. While she's there, she sees a boy named Jimmy Manning, her old rival. While she sees him there she begins to like him, more and more each day.

Martha begins to wonder if she should tell anyone about the paper that Olive's mom gave her, but she never does tell anyone. For the whole summer, she thinks about Olive. She couldn't change what happened, but she thought she could make things better. Olive always wanted to go to the ocean, but she couldn't go, so Martha brought a jar of ocean back home for Olive's mother. Olive also wanted to be a writer, so Martha wrote a novel based on Olive. So she tried to make Olive's dreams come true.

In the end, Martha rides home and brings the jar of water, and writes the beginning of her novel. But Olive's mother doesn't live in the same place when she arrives home. But even though Martha couldn't give the water to Olive's mom, she still did a nice thing by thinking about someone else. And Olive's diary helped Martha decide what she wanted to be when she grew up.
