Book Basket Thursday

I thought today I would let Owen give his reviews of the first two books in the Secret series by Pseudonymous Bosch. All three boys have accounts at Goodreads. They keep track of the books they've read, are reading, and want to read in the future. After they finish a book, they go to the site and write a brief review. I am going to share Owen's reviews here.

The Name of This Book Is Secret - "It's a great book. There are 2 main characters who are teens. There is a girl named Cassandra (Cass, for short). Her main traits are her pointy ears and her "predictions"(I think she just imagines it). The other main character is Max-Ernest. He's called that because one of his parents wanted to name him Max and the other, well, you get the idea. His main traits are his not that hilarious jokes, his "I just can't stop" talking, and his decoding skills. I'm also pretty sure that the magician from the book is, 1: still alive, and 2: Pietro Bergamo. But I guess that I won't find out until I read the next book: If You're Reading This, It's Too Late. And this my review. Enjoy!" 

If You're Reading This, It's Too Late - "This one is even better than the first. Cassandra, Max-Ernest, and their new friend Yo-Yoji (That's just his nickname. His real name is Yoji.) go hunt the homunculus, a 2 foot tall man grown in a bottle that sat in horse (How should I put this...) dung. Meanwhile, an evil organization called the Midnight Sun (I should have mentioned them in the first review) is trying to find the homunculus themselves so they they can find the secret to imortallity. If you read it, there is no way you won't find your way into brain popping action. I hope you enjoy it! And afterwards, make sure to read the third book, This Book Is Not Good For You."
