Age Level: 8 and up | Grade Level: 3 and up | Series: Avalon: Web of Magic
Emily and Adriane each have one thing Kara lacks—a magic gem. But when Kara finally finds a magic stone of her own—a diamond unicorn horn—it brings more trouble than the girls can handle. Pesky dragonflies start showing up everywhere and new Fairimentals appear, warning of danger. Worst of all, a band of terrifying monsters is stalking Kara. Overcoming these perils may bring the teens one step closer to Avalon, the source of all magic. But it may also cost one of them her life.
All That Glitters is the second book in Avalon: Web of Magic, a twelve-book fantasy series for middle grade readers. Through their magical journey, the teenage heroines discover who they really are . . . and run into plenty of good guys, bad guys, and cute guys.

Roberts toured extensively for the first release of the Avalon series in the "Avalon - Music is Magic" Tour, a scripted musical event featuring songs, prizes and author signings. She lives in southern California.
I found this book o.k. I really don't get why the most unlikeable character in the series is the most powerful. She is a snobby brat(in my opinion). Others may find her interesting. Kara's snobbiness doesn't mess with the good plot, though. However, I would have much preferred that Adriane or Emily were the heroine, as they are much more nice. I can relate to them more. An over-all interesting book.

This book was GREAT! Emily is still my favorite, than Kara, than Adrianne. Having another book in the series that focouses on another girl changes what I see in them (My fovorites used to be Emily, Adrienne, Kara). It shows Kara and Adrienne fighting a lot, and Emily is still the peacemaker. Kara FINALLY finds a jem (a unicorn jewel), but that's when the trouble starts. Minature Dragons start popping up and adoring Kara, Banshee's try to take the jewel, and fry Kara's hair, but her magic turns it RAINBOW instead. And water faeriementals warn of danger. Plus, you see Kara torn between her friends Tiffany, Heather, and Molly and Ravenswod. But that's not all! Kara bonds with a magical cat named Lyra, and has a dangerous encounter with the Dark Sorceress herself....

I don't get into reading too much, but I read the first book and now this one and I am officially hooked. I have started the third book now and can't wait for the fourth to be released. What a wonderful series for kids my age. The characters are great in this book. So real to me. I love how each story has a different girl for the main character.
