Here are some of our favorites from last month! What makes these reviews special? Well, they contain lots of information, and, most importantly, they give a clear idea of how the reviewer feels about what he/she is reviewing and the reasons why.

Review Title: A story pet owners really ought to read - it's love and life with the world's worst (yet lovable) dog! Submitted by: Apple, age 15 Book: Marley and Me Author: John Grogan Book Subcategory: Autobiography Review: It's all about how a newly married couple's life turns upside down when they bring home a new addition to their growing family - a Labrador Retriever called Marley! Yet through the chaos and hilarity, he won hearts and became a dog that would shine forever in memories as a grand family pet, even at the end of his life. A truly beautiful tale! Review Title: A new direction for the world's best mandolinist... Submitted by: logophile, age 17 Artist: Chris Thile Album: Deceiver Music Subcategory: Alternative, Punk, and Indie Review: The nice thing about the songs on this album is that they're extremely interesting musically. You have to pay attention to each song, because it goes in wild, unforeseen directions and changes every few seconds. So the music catches your attention, and it also contains rock elements that make me, at least, feel energized and excited. Of course, the feel of the songs and the lyrics can also be depressing, since apparently a lot of the album was written about Chris Thile's divorce. So it's a mixed batch.

Most of the time they do 'debunk' some of the evidence of paranormal activity. Whether you are a skeptic or not, it does give you a good thrill. Review Title: Big Color at an even BIGGER price! Submitted by: Ailec, age 15 Product: Nic's Sticks by OPI in "Form One Lime" Beauty and Body Care Products Subcategory: Make-Up Review: The color I purchased, "Form One Lime", is so pretty. It kind of has an iridescent shine, which I'm usually not a fan of, but I love it in this shade. The polish goes on quite easily - you pump one end of the tube and it comes out the other. The polish, however, unlike in its advertisements, took a long time to dry. I painted my fingers and toe nails, and five minutes later I still smeared the polish on my toes. OPI advertises one minute of drying time. Read Ann's complete review Read Ailec's complete review Now that you know what we're looking for, get started on writing your own reviews!
