Escape from Mr. Lemoncello’s Library review.

 Escape from Mr. Lemoncello’s Library review.

Hi all, it’s Neassa and today I am reviewing the book I recently finished, Escape from doctor Lemoncello’s library by Chris Grabenstein. I waited a really long time, looking for this book, so I was very excited when I finally got it!

What is this book about?

This book is about a group of twelve year olds who get the chance of a lifetime, to be the first to view the town’s new library. But this isn’t just any old library, it was made by Mr limoncello, the worlds greatest game maker.


Kyle Keely is determined to meet Mr. Limoncello, and so enters the essay competition to be in with a chance. But he doesn’t enter on time, and is lucky to be accepted into the competition, in fact, he’s convinced he hasn’t been!


Kyle is absolutely thrilled when he finds out that he is one of the lucky winners and can’t wait to explore the library. What Kyle doesn’t know is that Mr Lemencello’s library is full of traps, games and adventure!

Did you enjoy the book?

As I said before, I waited a really long time to read this book and so my expectations were really high, and all I can say is that this book didn’t disappoint! I really enjoyed it and honestly can’t wait to read the rest of the series!

What genre/s is this book in?

I would say this book is in the genres puzzle and fiction.

Puzzle because the book is jam-packed with riddles and word problems.

Fiction because, sadly, it didn’t actually happen, though I would have loved if it had!

Flaws?

Honestly, the only thing I would change about this book is I would keep more of the beginning characters throughout the book. Other than that, I wouldn’t change a thing!


So that’s my review of the brilliant escape from Mr Lemoncello’s library, i would definitely say that anyone from 9 to 13 should give it a go.


Happy Reading

Reading by Neassa

 Hey guys, it's Neassa. I don't really have a specific topic for this post, so I'm just gonna talk all things reading. Why am I doing this, you might ask? Well, it's because reading books isn't confined to one subject, so neither is this post. I am often asked, why reading? Why are you a bookworm when you could be a gamer or a sportswoman? Well, firstly I can still be a gamer or a sportswoman and still be a bookworm ! It's not a job or a commitment, it's just for fun.  And why reading? If I'm completely honest, I'm not sure. I really can't remember a time when I wasn't surrounded with books whether I was reading them myself or having them read to me by m parents, so I have been enjoying stories for years ,and I just never stopped! I'm not sure if I've mentioned this before, but I also like writing short stories. I would love to write a novel, and am really excited about that. I like writing because I like to try and cover topics I lik...

How To Buy Books For And With Your Child

  A key component of reading is, well, books! And if your child doesn’t have any they want to read they won’t read. Period. So it is vital that your child has access to books they want to read. All The. Time. Especially if they are hesitant to read in the first place. With this in mind, I have created a list of hints and tips to help your child to pick books for themselves, along with some bonus tips on how to pick books for them yourself. No pressure to pick Make sure your child knows there is no pressure to pick a book at all. You are just going for a look, and if they pick it’s a bonus.  This can help to pick more enjoyable books as they are likely to buy books they actually want to read, rather than picking books for the sake of it. Money Is No Object At least at first, focusing on the price of the books will deter your child from picking the more expensive ones, that they may want more. While many book shops can be expensive, we would argue that it is worth it to encourag...

The Future

  hvhgrdkhgs;igfvrs/gsvh.dc\k.hvzouesnzvzh’zafbj/zfhf;dhuhufdz;;bzxdc’uszfd.ghdzshgf That was me getting myself to type. It is difficult to know how to start these things sometimes. I’ve decided to keep it in the post anyway to show you guys that we are not perfect and to be more authentic. Another personal post today. It is approaching a whole year since we launched this business. I cannot believe it. Sometimes still have to shake myself and say: I have a BUSINESS. Selling BOOKS. I am living the dream. And I have all these people (you guys!) behind me who believe in us and are getting benefit from our books and our content. It is amazing to think how far we’ve come. But today I’m going to focus on the future. I’m going to talk about my hopes, dreams and wishes for this business, which I hope can become my lifetime job. I think that reading is extremely important. I think it is why I am where I am today. It is how I learn and grow. It is my everything, and running a business that s...
