I Will Save You by Matt De La Pena

Hello,

So in my school class I was given the amazing opportunity to interview an author about his new book. The book was absolutely amazing and it really changed how I think about things. The book had a lot of ironic twists and the ending was crazy. This book really does represent a lot.

This book was about a young guy who's dad and mom both died, and went to a mental hospital. But then he goes to a camp site and his life begins again, he meets a young girl and their relationship is slow but it really builds. There isn't really a lot that I can say without spoiling anything, that's this kind of book.

Synopsis:

Kidd is running from his past and his future. No mom, no dad, and there’s nothing for him at the group home but therapy. He doesn't belong at the beach where he works either, unless he finds a reason to stay.

Olivia is blond hair, blue eyes, rich dad. The prettiest girl in Cardiff. She’s hiding something from Kidd—but could they ever be together anyway?

Devon is mean, mysterious, and driven by a death wish. A best friend and worst enemy. He followed Kidd all the way to the beach and he’s not leaving until he teaches him a few lessons about life. And Olivia.

This book is very worth reading! The author is so cool and really has a sense of humor. The interview was a good experience and I would do it again anytime! I gave this book a 5 out of 5 stars. Please go and give this author some love by going and buying his book, you wont regret it! 

Happy Reading!

Scarlet by Marissa Meyer

Hello!

I love fairy tales and I definitely lobe the lunar Chronicles series, so be ready to her me fan-girl! I read Cinder and loved it so much I made my friend read it and she loved it! I just read Scarlet a bit ago and can not wait to read Cress! If you don't know this series is a bout story retailing about princess's. The author does a great job really twisting the story into really unique ideas you would not guess. When I was reading this book the irony was unbearable. Of course there was a cute romantic love story in this book. But you would not think if it at the beginning, the author really makes you love the characters.

This book is about a girl named Scarlet who lives with her grandmother on the outskirts of Paris. Her whole life was normal until one day her grandmother goes missing. The whole book is her on the mission of finding her grandma. One the way she meets a boy named wolf who may have some answers. The story retailing in Little Red Riding Hood.

Synopsis:

Cinder, the cyborg mechanic, returns in the second thrilling installment of the bestselling Lunar Chronicles. She's trying to break out of prison--even though if she succeeds, she'll be the Commonwealth's most wanted fugitive. Halfway around the world, Scarlet Benoit's grandmother is missing. It turns out there are many things Scarlet doesn't know about her grandmother or the grave danger she has lived in her whole life. When Scarlet encounters Wolf, a street fighter who may have information as to her grandmother's whereabouts, she is loath to trust this stranger, but is inexplicably drawn to him, and he to her. As Scarlet and Wolf unravel one mystery, they encounter another when they meet Cinder. Now, all of them must stay one step ahead of the vicious Lunar Queen Levana, who will do anything for the handsome Prince Kai to become her husband, her king, her prisoner.

This book was so good and I really would tell everyone to read this series! I gave this book a 5 out of 5 stars. 

Happy Reading!

The Fault in Our Stars by John Green

Hi,

Everyone knows about this book so let me save some of your time. It was so good and all of you know that. I can't wait for the movie to come out June 6th because it is going to be interesting out to see how well the book was portrayed because let's be honest the book is hard to meet. I thought this book was very sad but mostly it made me laugh. The sense of humor in this just took me down to earth and back in reality. I really love how John Green combined a very hard topic, good humor and of course a very good romantic setting on this. The book was really well written and I took a lot from this book.

This book is about a young girl names Hazel Grace who has cancer. It goes through her life of living  normal life but with cancer which takes over a lot. She has to go to support group where she meets this amazing boy Augustus Waters and from there things go on a ride through crazy events. i can't say much because one thing I say who spoil it for those who haven't read the book yet.

Synopsis:

Despite the tumor-shrinking medical miracle that has bought her a few years, Hazel has never been anything but terminal, her final chapter inscribed upon diagnosis. But when a gorgeous plot twist named Augustus Waters suddenly appears at Cancer Kid Support Group, Hazel's story is about to be completely rewritten.

I loved this book so much as you can tell. I really haven't herd one bad thing about this book and or John Greens other books, like I read Paper Towns and it was fantastic! Of course I gave this books a 5 out of 5 stars and I recommend this book for all who sees this post. 

With all that said happy Reading!

Beautiful Creatures by Kami Garcia and Margaret Stohl

Hello fellow book readers!

First off before I get started on typing let me just say oh my stars! This book literally blew my mind. I went into reading this book knowing only a little bit from the movies preface. i was expecting this book to be OK and just like any other book with witches in it but man was i wrong. This book is not like any other witch book and has such an amazing unique story line.

This book is about a boy named Ethan who lives in an ordinary small town called Gatlin. In this town there are things just like modern day clicks, mean girls and well the weird. This all changes when a girl named Lena comes to town and changes everything. She flips Gatlin upside down and give everyone a ride for their money, even Ethan. Ethan and Lena go on a adventure of love and spells together until her 16th birthday. Then everything happens.

My synopsis of the book is very vague seeing as every minute of the book has something going on.

Synopsis: 

There is a girl. Slowly, she pulled the hood from her head . . . Green eyes, black hair. Lena Duchannes.

There is a curse. On the Sixteenth Moon, the Sixteenth Year, the Book will take what it's been promised. And no one can stop it.

In the end, there is a grave.

Lena and Ethan become bound together by a deep, powerful love. But Lena is cursed and on her sixteenth birthday, her fate will be decided.Ethan never even saw it coming.

Spoilers Section:

This book has a lot of spoilers. First off can we talk about how cute of a couple Ethan and Lena are? I really can't wait to read the other books because I want to know whether Lena picks light or dark. I thought she was going to be light but I guess not. I really want to know what happens, Ahhhhhhh!!!!

I would definitely recommended this book for anyone who like books that are creepy but very easy to read. When I mean creepy I mean don't read this at night because it was scarier than miss peregrines house for peculiar children. I gave this book a huge 5 out of 5 stars, yay! 

Thanks for reading!
