My Review of a Book
Have you been searching for a horror book to read?
I recommend that you hop into your car and go to the nearest bookstore to get “Something Upstairs”!
“Something Upstairs” is a thrilling, historical, and horror book about a boy called Kenny that just moved into a new town and house.
The suspense will keep you on the edge of your seat. For example, at one point in the story, the boy faces someone he never thought he would.
The book has history in it too! Kenny goes into the past and learns many things that help him solve a quest he’s on.
The horror in the book will make your heart pound faster throughout the story. For example, Kenny meets a mysterious creature that actually becomes his friend.
One thing I noticed was that some of the parts in the story seem to drag on. So, I suggest that the author removes unnecessary details.
So go get “Something Upstairs” and start reading! You won’t be able to put it down!
My Rating: 4/5 stars

This book is a perfect fit if you enjoy subjects like animals, comics, children, fiction, and comedy. Trust me when I say that this book is a laughter-inducing gem. It’s the kind of book that will make you laugh, smile, and think about it all day long, providing endless entertainment.

My Book Review Of The Last Kids On Earth
Have you been looking for a book that will keep you on the edge of your seat? If you have but sadly can’t find one, I understand how much of a bother it is, that was before I found the collection of The Last Kids on Earth and saying that it will knock your socks off is an understatement with how amazing it is!
I really recommend that you read it but you’ll have to read the first two because this is the third one. The last kids on earth is an amazing series of books about the adventures that a boy called Jack Sullivan and his four friends are the last kids on earth because of a monster apocalypse!
The suspense will not let you put the book down! For example, we don’t find out who or what’s causing the problems in the story until close to the end. You should also read this book for the plot twists! As revealed, just when the characters thought things couldn’t get worse the danger gets stronger! And finally, the third reason why you should read this book is because it doesn’t drag on it’s always very interesting, examples include the characters facing multiple difficulties trying to survive.
I did notice that although it’s a kid’s book, some of the parts are sad and slow the loneliness that the apocalypse gave these children so maybe it shouldn’t be for all ages but rather 8+ but other than that it’s amazing.
In conclusion The Last Kids On Earth is a very captivating and thought provoking book so quickly get yourself a copy of this amazing book because once you’ve picked it up you will not be able to put it down! I rate it 5 stars
