A girl’s parents had gone when she was small. Her parents had left her clues to find rooms filled of things about her parents. At first she sees the key and doesn’t know what she is supposed to do with it. Then after she has opened the first room she starts to realize all these important things in life and that people who bully her are just being mean and selfish but they are doing it because there is something wrong in their own lives.
Hannah says: "I started Eight Keys thinking it was a vintage, sad story. My friend had told me about the story and she had exaggerated and made it sound so cool but actually it wasn’t. It was actually really boring like about these two people who go to normal school and the one gets bullied its really, really boring. I rate it 0 stars. I did not like it at all."

This book is about 5 kids named: Dick, Anne, Julian and Georgina (likes being called George) The one that I'm reading is the one with the one with the circus and a kid called Nobby. In the book, the kids are on their own in their own caravans. There are two caravans and they are different colors. The one is red, that’s for the girls and there is a green one for the boys. They are close to a farm where they get their supplies and they are close to a lake where they get their water from. There was a hidden underground lair where these people from the circus hide things they've stolen. They stole all sorts of things that are PRICELESS.
Jaden says: "I'm done with the book and I think that you will enjoy the book very much. I am not saying anymore about the book. Thank you for reading my review."
