A Delightful and Enchanting book!
I loved this book! :) I couldn't put it down! It was a great book with four romance love stories. They were all excellent. I really liked the fact that it included stories from the guy's point of view and not just from the girls. Everyone had made New Year's resolutions and they were all trying to follow them. I think that my favorite story was about Karina who always wanted to study and that was what all her New Year's resolutions were about, but her best friend Navajoa convinces her to have a good time. Karina falls for Borg(literally!), a hockey player. It's a really good book and i recommend it to everyone who likes romances and has a New Year's resolution for love!

coolness@laughalot.com - Beka the bookworm
This book was cool. It's below my reading level, but when titles catch my eye, I get them anyway. Beka is reading a book about a ghost haunting a place and then they actually SMOOSH into the book, where they have to find out who the ghost is before the kings' thirteenth birthday.
Thrillingand captivating..a mordern day fairy tale
O.k. I didn't read this book. But I DID read Princess Nevermore.. And I'm here to tell you to do the same. It is da bomb!

Okay book.
Monster of the month club was an okay book. There were only two monsters in it and Rilla was more involved in her personal life than the two monsters.
My FAVORITE BOOK
This book is not only really funny, but unpredictable and interesting. When I saw the cover, I wasn't sure if it was a good book. But when I started reading, I didn't want to put the book down! Everyone should read it.
Hilarious book!
This is the first book in a series of four about a girl, named Rilla, who recieves a mysterious present in the mail announcing that someone has bought her a year-long subscription to the Monster of the Month Club. Every month she recieves a new monster in the mail. No one ever told her that the monsters would be live ones! Each monster comes complete with feeding instructions and strange warnings that must be heeded, or else . . .
These are extremely funny books that will keep you laughing till the very end. As a Librarian, I recommend this book all the time to children (and adults) and they love it.

A good story with good characters and good writing
I just finished this book about an hour ago, and I have to say I liked it. The main character, Princess Quinnella (Quinn) is interesting and fun, even though I am generaly more a fan of the clever, weapons expert, sharp tounged, villian stomping "Xena" type heroin. I also do not normaly enjoy love stories, though this was an exception. The love story itself is predictable and boring, but the book itself was so well written that I would sit down to read it for five or ten minutes and "wake up" hours later realizing I had forgotten everything else but the story. I do wish however, that she hadn't fallen in love with Adam. If she really had to fall in love with someone it should have been Cam. Actually, I really don't think she should have fallen in love with anyone because it's not like the relationship would be real, she's way to young! Also I found myself greatly annoyed by the way Quinn let herself by jostled and fought over by boys. She should have choosed the one she liked (Adam) and not just gone along with whoever won the "joust". Despite this it was a truly good, well written book and I greatly enjoyed it.
Princess Nevermore
I liked this book a whole lot because you got to make your mind think of what the people would look like, and think of what would happen next. I think that this book was like a love story mixed with a mystery. Quinn which was the princess love the outter world which is really the earth we live in. The person that she liked was Adam he was from the outter world. She got there from her friend (Cam)that lives in her kingdom. He wished that both of them would go to the outter world but by mistake only Quinn went why, well you will have to find out by reading this book! I think I have told you a lot, but one more thing is that Adams has a little sister her name is Sarah and there is a boy named Zack, I'am glad that we don't have that kind for person in our school you'll see what I mean if you read the book. I think girls would like this better then boys because it talks a lot about liking people like girls and boys.
A great book and quivering
When I look at the book, I was attracted by the title and it's cover.A princess called Quinn is unfortunately went into outer earth alone, facing a different world from her own, she do not have any friend to accompany. The story continue with how she gets on with her new friends, how she live in the new world and her decision between remain in the outer earth or back.I liked this book a whole lot because you got to make your mind think of what people would look like, and think of wht would happen next. I think that this book was like a love story mixed with a mystery.The person Quinn like was Adam he was from the outer earth.She got there from her friend (Cam) that lives in her kingdom. He wished that both of them would go to the outer earth but by mistake only Quinn went why, well you will have to find out by reading this book! I think I have told you a lot, but one more thing is that Adam has a little sister her name is Sarah and a boy name Zack, I'm glad that i dont have that kind for person in our school you'll see what I mean if you read the book. Anyway, I would like to recommend the book to everyone who is interested in adventure story. It really worth reading and is suitable for teenagers to read.

Great book
In Monsters in the Attic, Rilla receives three new monsters: Chelsea, Burly, and Summer, for the months April, May, and June. She has to deal with taking care of all three, and not letting anyone find out. However, Rilla's one true love, Joshua Banks finds out. He spends a lot of sports time with Burly. At the same time, Rilla finds a dog and names him Taco. Joshua comes over more to play with him too. The second book in the Monster of the Month Club series, Monsters in the Attic is another yet hilarious book.
Very suspenseful, What if this really happened?
I liked this book very much, It made me want to read the other books in the series. My favorite part is when Chelsea the mermaid beaded Rilla's hair. The characters were very funny.

Daddies
Very sweet, simple book about what Daddies do with their children. My 1 year old can relate to all the activities and vocabulary. She loves reading about someone she loves. There seem to be so many more books about Mommies, so I was glad to come accross this one in our library.

A little unbalanced, but totally fun!
I like this book because it's obvious what choice Emily should make (older guy vs. perfect guy), yet it takes her awhile to figure it out. As I mentioned before, this book is fun to read and is very enjoyable. I think that you, too, will enjoy this book.

Fun book.
What would you do if you had a friendly ghost haunting your backyard? And what would you do if your best friend had suddenly become popular with the boys, while you couldn't get the one boy you like to even look at you? But worst of all, what would you do if a geeky boy, who thinks he is living in a science fiction movie, moves next door to you and is interested, not only in you, but the ghost too? Jilly has to deal with all of that and much more in this book.
Readers who like authors such as, Joan Lowery Nixon and Lois Duncan will love this book full of mystery, romance and supernatural.

Try some L (liver) Cookies today! ! ! ! ! ! !
We (my cousin and I) really liked this book. The only reason we gave it 4 (actually 4 and a half) stars is because we thought it could use some young people getting together in the end. It was emotional and sad but there was hope until the very end. It wasn't exactly the mystery I was looking for (or what I usually read) but it was excellent!!! Oh Yeah!! Don't forget about the recipies in the back of the book!!! So, do not judge this book by its cover! ! ! !

A sweet children's book with a good plotline
Ghost Twins is one of the best series on the market for children. They present children with entertainment as well as knowledge. The morals in the story are also helpful for teaching kids. This is a wonderful book continuing the adventures of robbie and Rebeka (and their ghost-dog Thatch).
