Reading Response on "The Stonekeeper"

Spoiler Alert

           I just finished reading the “Amulet’s” first book “The Stonekeeper” and it was by far, the graphic novel I have read since the bone series. In sixth grade, one of the most enjoyable graphic novels was the bone series and I wouldn't mind reading one of the books right know. “The Stonekeeper” by Kazu Kibuishi was very interesting and I couldn't stop reading it. I’m pretty sure that this book has a sequel because this book says “book one”. I hope that I am able to read the rest of the “Amulet” series.
            In this book Emily, the main character, gets a hold of an amulet, accidently and decides to keep it because she thinks it looks cool. Emily doesn't know the powers behind the amulet until her mother is in trouble and she tries to save her. The only way Emily can use the amulet’s power is by focusing and calming down. If Emily masters the power of the amulet, she can go back in time and save her father from dying and go back in time whenever she wants to. But when accepting to be the amulets master, there will be consequences and sacrifices. Emily didn't really have a choice because Emily said that she wanted to save her mother and the amulet said that I can help you but you have to accept to be my master. I don’t want to spoil the book anymore, read the book for yourself and enjoy.
            I don’t really know how many more books are in the “Amulet” series but I want to read the rest of them by the time I finish middle school. I searched it up online and found out that there are at least 5 books in the series. So I’ll hopefully be able to read 4 more of the books soon. I want the rest of the books to be even better than the last, but I guess I have to read them to find out how they are.
            In conclusion, the book “The Stonekeeper” as you can tell is one of my favorite books. Emily got a magical amulet and knows how to master the powers of it and use it at any time. There are 4 more books in the series that I want to read as soon as possible. I want to read the second book by next week. I don’t know what to say about the other characters so I’ll just say I recommend this book to anyone who likes any type of graphic novels.
