July Book Recommendations
Every Month, we are going to have a list of 3-15 books that are coming out/have come out this month that the staff recommends you read. The main books that the staff recommends will generally be different, unless they strongly recommend a few from a certain month.

July Book Recommendations:


1. Daniel X: Watch the Skies by James Patterson and Ned Rust

All's quiet in the small town of Holliswood, the television sets a-glow in every home. But not all is as perfect as it seems.

A terrifying outlaw has just arrived in town, with the goal of throwing it into chaos--and filming the pandemonium for the fellas back home.

Only one person can stop him and his thugs from destroying the city and everyone living there. Daniel X assembles an all-star team of his own creation, but not even he could imagine the enormity of this made-for-TV-villain's powers.


Price: $12.73

3. The Man from Pomegranate Street by Caroline Lawrence


September AD 81. Returning from Ephesus to Rome, Flavia and her friends learn of the mysterious and sudden death of the Emperor Titus. Was his death natural? Or was it murder? As the four detectives investigate this mystery, they little dream how much their lives—as well as the future of Italia—will be changed as a result. At last, many of the questions Roman Mysteries fans have been burning to have answered are revealed in the final book of the series.

Price: $12.23

4. Warriors Super Edition: Bluestar's Prophecy by Erin Hunter

Destined for greatness . . .

Four Clans of wild cats have shared the forest for generations, thriving in their territories. But tensions are running high, and ThunderClan must assert its strength or risk falling prey to its power-hungry neighbors.

Into this time of uncertainty, a kit is born. A prophecy foretells that Bluekit will be as strong as fire, destined to blaze through the ranks of her Clan. But with this prophecy comes the foreshadowing of her destruction by the one enemy she cannot outrun.

As Bluekit gains power and eventually earns her leader name, Bluestar, she fights to protect her Clan. But secrets from the past threaten to surface—secrets that may destroy ThunderClan . . . and Bluestar.

RE: July Book Recommendations
I want to get the Magykal Papers, that sounds awesome. I already own Magyk and the other books on my Kindle, but don't remember them after reading them so long ago. That's why I'm going to get Magykal Papers, so that I can reread the Septimus Heap series. XD
