Recycled Science by Tammy Enz and Jodi Lyn Wheeler-Toppen is a book about recycling. The book aims to reuse common household items to become useful items such as lava lamps, flashlights and speakers. The book is filled with excellent pictures during the different stages of the experiment.
This book contains some interesting science projects. The book is geared toward upper elementary or middle school students; however, it is important that the projects are completed with adult supervision because of the potentially dangerous items required. These projects should be completed at home or outside as they would not work in a traditional classroom environment.

A good blend of genres
All the Birds in the Sky is a rather difficult book to classify. It’s a rather good mix of sci-fi, drama, fantasy and romance, all under the guise of a battle between magic and science. I wouldn’t have thought such a mix of genres would work, but actually this does rather well. The two main characters, Patricia and Laurence, are well developed and enjoyable to read about, even if they are a little frustrating at times. The world of science and magic that they live in is an interesting idea and fascinating to delve into, although I did feel that the book didn’t quite go into as much detail as I’d like. I also felt a little disappointed with the ending. The entire book had been building up to this massive battle between science and magic, and it all turned out rather lacklustre and tame. It’s a shame really as until the ending, I’d rather been enjoying the story and couldn’t wait to find out what was next.

Science Fiction
A new author and new twist on the hidden world of knights and the super natural in the modern world. It held my attention as I read and wanted to know what happens next. The first book on the series. Not intended for young readers. Adult situations and language.

<i>Many thanks for the publisher for providing me with a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review</i>
Actual rating 3.5 stars
A good collection of science fiction with some really interesting concepts. I preferred His Master's Voice and the twitter Micro fiction from the collection.

Landforms by Mary Lindeen is an easy to read book for young readers in the Earth Science series. This book teaches the reader about the science of landforms, and their shapes. It has beautiful color photographs that help the reader to better understand mountains, hills, plateaus, etc. The book will help young readers learn about geography in a fun way in which they will understand. The vocabulary used in the word list is simple and perfect for young readers.
I would love to add this book to my classroom library.
I give this book 4.5/5 stars.

Thrilling ride
This isn't a generic crime show and no channel has ever known how to market it. It has the unique blend of well executed action, fascinating narrative, incredible plot and phenomenal acting.
Every season has continued to surprise me and season 3 stepped up massively. Without spoiling - season one and two had the team mostly on the 'number of the week' formula but the stakes get even higher by 3 as other players enter the field. It only climbs from there.
Very layered, very emotional, very much worth your time.
