Bento: Day 1

Ms. Marvel vol. 1 3/5
About a girl from Israel who moved to San Francisco. After this party at this riverside, she met all the Marvel heros and they made her a superhero. 
It was too boring -- you didn;t really get a sense of the plot. All you saw was snippets and her going to do this and that.

False Prince by Jennifer Nielsen 5/5
It’s a great book. There’s this boy named Sage who was an orphan. He was stealing stuff. He was taken away to this place where he was in a contest to become prince. I liked the unexpected twist. I liked the whole plot -- lot of adventure, sneaking, fun stuff... I also liked the character names.


Friends with Boys by Faith Erin Hicks 3/5
I didn't really like it.

Anya's Ghost by Vera Bristol 4/5
Anya’s Ghost is about a girl who moved from Russia. She fell down a hole and met a ghost. The ghosts says that her family was murdered by this person and she ran away, but is she telling the truth.
I really like how there is an unexpected twist.

In Real Life by Cory Doctorow and Jen Wang 5/5
About this girl who is in school and has this guest speaker. This guest speakers tell about this online RPG and she wants to join it. It's her birthday and she convinces her mom to let her join it and she meets a new friend.
I like how she tries to help one of the players in the game in real life.
