    The first book I’m reading is Magyk by Angie Sage. It’s the first book in the Septimus Heap series and it’s awesome!

    My first book that I am reading in middle school is ‘Frindle’ by Andrew Clements. I started reading the book yesterday and it is so fun!

    The book I’m reading right now is the Ranger’s Apprentice, by John Flanagan. This book is really interesting. It interested me so much that it reminded me of Rick Riordan’s book’s.
    He wrote my favourite books to this date.
