Great

Yet another wonderful book in the always creative Zenda series. In this book, a new character is introduced, Willow. She is everything a decent friend should be, and that is exactly why Zenda can't stand her. Zenda continuously tries to convince herself that jealousy is NOT the emotion she is feeling, but deep inside it upsets her that her friends seem less interested in her since Willow came along. And as if this isn't enough to deal with, Zenda is worried about Persuaja, the kind but mysterious psychic who is one of Zenda's most understanding friends. Persuaja is very ill, possibly with something incurable. This story was one that always keeps you feeling Zenda's emotions as though they were your own, and the ending hints that the next book will finish Zenda's quest to collect all the pieces of her gazing ball. Don't worry, though, it doesn't end the series! I recommend this series to any girl, and wish that my friends would give it a try as well.

The Impossible Butterfly

This book was so good! I found it so entertaining, that I finished it in just two and a half days. I related so well to Zenda's feelings in this story, and so will many other girls. We all feel jealous of someone at one point or another, and in this book, Zenda is feeling it immensly. When a new girl, Willow, moves in nearby, Zenda watches as her friends begin doing everything with Willow, as if thriving off of her, and ignore Zenda. Then, as if things couldn't get any worse, a project at school turns into a big problem, and Willow might be the only person who can help Zenda. But will Zenda be willing to accept it? I'd recommend this book to anyone! It is very clean, while expressing the feelings of a twelve year old girl. I love it!
