The Bamboo Ice Cream Mystery: How to Remember and Succeed (Memory Masters Book 1)

I just finished reading this really cute book called The Bamboo Ice Cream Mystery: How to Remember and Succeed by Eran Katz.

 It was a nice easy read and a break from what I normally read. The author writes in a nice,simple imaginative style that will grab the attention of young minds. This was my first time reading this author, but I was very impressed. This book talks about memory and is such a wonderful read.

This is what Amazon says about this book, "Some people in the world only get to eat black and white ice cream. Yogoor the Schmendrik decides to change this injustice by competing in the world ice cream memory championship. The winner gains the right to control the world's ice cream fields and ice nut mines. This is the only way Yogoor and his friends will ever be able to enjoy unlimited flavors of ice cream. There's just one problem. The only one who can help him achieve his goal is an old memory master who holds the secrets to amazing memory techniques… and no one has seen him for the past 20 years. Yogoor and his friend Ella set out on an adventurous, suspense-filled, humorous and inspiring journey in search of the missing master. Will they find him? Will they develop a super memory?"

Composer of the Calm Horizon: Escape to a New World

I finished reading another book by Al Romano called Composer of the Calm Horizon: Escape to a New World.

I have thoroughly enjoyed reading Al's books, and I can't wait to read another story from Al. 

This book grabs your attention right off the bat by taking you far beyond the realm of what our normal little world tells us.  It takes you to other times and places. 

The book pulled me into it from the very beginning, and I didn't want to put it down once I started. It had me rereading and trying to figure out what was happening or was going to happen.

Here is what Amazon says about this story, "

The existence of a special world rests on the shoulders of a 15-year-old boy

Ever since 15-year-old Neph Baker was accused by town members of committing arson, his life has become filled with suffering and loneliness. He was nicknamed “The Fire Kid” and is hated by literally everyone.
Everything changes when Neph discovers the Natin, a group of humanoids who invite him to their home. The Natin believe that Neph is the Composer of the Calm Horizon – the long-lost hero of legends, who could defeat the Airatsmeka, their eternal enemies.
When Neph arrives at the Novaverse, a utopian parallel world dominated by the Natin, he understands that if he doesn’t live up to his supposed destiny as the composer, the utopia will be destroyed by the Airatsmeka. The Natin have been waiting seven centuries for the opportunity to defeat the Airatmeka. There is no room for failure. If Neph doesn’t complete his mission, he will return to his life as an outcast.
Neph is willing to do anything to prove himself.
Time is running out..."
