The_Twelve_Tasks_of_Flavia_Gemina_cover

This book – The Twelve Tasks of Flavia Gemina – by Caroline Lawrence – is really good. I read it it like 14 times so it’s high time we get started with this review! The book is about where JONATHAN, NUBIA and LUPUS have to help FLAVIA perform 12 labors (well she does’t actually have to DO the tasks but she has to find 12 things that resemble the tasks) and she has to do them because if she does them then she’ll be able to find out why this Roman widow (Cartilla Poplica) loves Captain Geminus (flavia’s father).

Anyway if you liked this review smash that LIKE button throw a dozen bombs on it explode TNTX500 on it and……….. peace out!

Hey what’s going on guys it’s AUGUST THE AWESOME! (Sorry for the delay – mom had pneumonia.)

This is…………………  another ROMAN MYSTERIES book – The Dolphins of Laurentum by Caroline Lawrence –  and this one is VEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERY freaky! Because when FLAVIA, JONATHAN, NUBIA, LUPUS, MORDACAIE, MARCUS FLAVIUS GEMINUS, PLINY(no I don’t know how at all he’s still alive), MIRIAM and ARISTO go to Laurentum where they find out how Lupus lost his tongue (or shall i say:where they uncover the horrible truth about his past) and they also find out Venalicius (the slave trader) is Lupus’s UNCLE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! crazy huh? They are also trying to find a sunken ship which is LOADED with treasure but there is an octopus guarding the ship. So Lupus actually tames a dolphin – which he named Delphina – but Venalicius is looking for the ship too but dies after diving 12 or 10 times…

Anyway if you liked this review kill Valentine on the spot with an AK-47, smash your cookie into it and if you get crumbs on it then you can just lick it off with your tongue! While you’re at it you can hit the “like” button with your tongue. And…. PEACE OUT!
