Summary: THIS IS THE BEST BOOK
Review: A GIRL NAMED MERIDETH SHIPMAN WAS STOLEN FROM THE STREETS OF LONDON TO BE A SERVENT IN AMERICA. THEY CALL MERIDETH MERRY FOR SHORT. SHE FINDS A DAGGER UNDER MASTER WEBBE'S MATTRESS. A FEW DAYS LATER SHE FINDS ONE OF THE CHARACTER'S DEAD! SHE WENT TO LOOK FOR ANGELO, HER FRIEND'S BOOK, BUT MISTRESS WEBBE FINDS MERRY AND ASKS HER WHY SHE IS IN THERE? SHE ANSWERED LYING, "MASTER WEBBE CALLED ME OVER HERE TO FINISH HOUSE WORK." I LIKE THIS BOOK BECAUSE ..... IT USES SLANG'TALK, SIMILES, METAPHORS, AND PERSONIFICATIONS.

Summary: A good book
Review: Shadows In The Glasshouse is a good book. It has good descriptions. If you like a book that takes a while before the mystery; thats the book. In the book Merry is kidnapped from England and sent to Jamestown. She is forced to work in the glasshouse for five years. She later discovers that this glasshouse is no ordanary glasshouse. There was a murder, a missing book, and broken glass. I recommend this book for anyone. Megan McDonald is a good writer. She gives you a picture in your head. If you don't like this book look for more of Megan McDonald's books because she writes in different styles!!!!!!! She writes many history mysterys!!!!!!!!!

Summary: A Book That You Need To Read!
Review: This is the kind of book that gets you thinking,(who did it?). Merry is an orphan and gets kidnapped. She finds herself on a smelly ship headed for Jamestown. Is she going to be a slave, or an indentured servant? How long wil she be there? Will she have enough food and clothes? Well, I'll leave that for you to find out. Her life is a threatening patch of thorn bushes. But at least her best friend, Angelo, is there to comfort her. The problem is that Angelo's new glass formula book is missing!Oh, no! This book is one of the best history mysteries that gets you on the edge of your seat. I like this book because my favorite mystery stories are when there is always trouble for the detective, even when it seems like the detective can almost do nothing wrong. Merry may be in harms way, but she is always on the path of victory! This book makes you want to know (automatically) what is going to happen next. My friends and I (in the fourth grade)have just finished reading it and we recommend it as a high winner with all the similes, metaphors, personifications, and vivid descriptions!
