Others: Overwhelmingly positiveImagine an America very similar to our own. It's got homework, best friends, and pistachio ice cream. There are some differences. This America has been shaped dramatically by the magic, monsters, knowledge, and legends of its peoples, those Indigenous and those not. Some of these forces are charmingly everyday, like the ability to make an orb of light appear or travel across the world through rings of fungi. But other forces are less charming and should never see the light of day. Elatsoe lives in this slightly stranger America. She can raise the ghosts of dead animals, a skill passed down through generations of her Lipan Apache family. Her beloved cousin has just been murdered in a town that wants no prying eyes. But she is going to do more than pry. The picture-perfect facade of Willowbee masks gruesome secrets, and she will rely on her wits, skills, and friends to tear off the mask and protect her family.

Others: MixedTHEY SAY THAT THERE IS A DARK REALM OF NIGHTMARES THAT LIES BENEATH THE TRUE SEA. WHEN THE UNDERSEA ARCHES ITS BACK, THE UPPER SEA IS STIRRED TO FRENZY. THEY SAY THAT THE UNDERSEA WAS THE DWELLING PLACE OF THE GODS. THEY SAY MANY THINGS OF THE MYRIAD, AND ALL OF THEM ARE TRUE. The gods are dead. Fifty years ago, they turned on one another and tore each other apart. Nobody knows why. Now, even coin-sized scraps of dead god are worth a fortune because of the strange powers they're said to possess. But few are brave to dive and search for them. When fifteen-year-old Hark finds the still-beating heart of one of these deities, he'll risk everything to keep it out of the hands of the smugglers, scientists, and cults who would kill for its power. Because Hark needs to heart if he wants to save the life of his best friend, Jelt. But the power of a god was not meant for human hands. With the heart, Jelt begins to eerily transform, and Hark will have to decide if he can stay loyal to his friend--or what he's willing to sacrifice to save him. This description comes from the publisher.

Loved it
Loved itI loved these so much they're huge books here's my favorite parts I read both of them in two days
Mixedthough I don't mind this book it is my least favorite book in the Harry Potter series and I don't know why necessarily I think it's because it just didn't feel as exciting as the other books in the series were to me
Mixedi can't even tell you why this is the one i come back to the least for a lot of the book it felt like not that much really happened obviously the ending was crazy and like emma said it does show you just how much jk rowling obsessed about planning this series and how well she pulled it off but this is the one that was just a little bit depressing
