Gravesavers by Sheree Fitch
Find this book in the Library's catalogue
If you love history-mysteries, then this book is for you! Minn (or Cinnamon-the main character) is sent to live with her less-than-welcoming grandmother on the East Coast where she finds herself right in the middle of a haunting mystery. As she learns more about one of the most tragic shipwrecks in Maritime history before the Titanic, her grandmother, and even herself, Minn unleases a powerful series of events that pretty much change everything. I have to say that this book has to be my most favourite book from a Canadian writer...I hope you'll like it too!

Inu-Yasha Feudal Fairy Tale, by Rumiko Takahashi
Find this book in the Library's catalogue
I really like this book because I like how big of an imagination it is. And that they write things that are fantasy like. Demons, mortals, and humans like all interact with each other. Also like how Inu-Yasha pretends not to like Kagome when he really does. and that they try to hide their feelings but in the end they pretty much find out.
