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!

Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban

Hi,

This book is my favorite so far in the series. I thought the imagery was great. I loved how fast pace it was and I loved every event that happened in this book. We got introduced to my favorite animals in this book and some of the most darkest characters. In this book there was a lot of feeling that went on with Harry, I cant really tell you what because it would spoil it.

This series is about a boy named Harry. He is a wizard, but has to live with his muggle (human) aunt and uncle. But one day everything changes for him because he gets a letter from Hogwarts. And that's where his journey begins. He meets two friends named Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley. And they both go on this epic journey with him.

I wasn't expecting to like this book very much because the movie, I didn't like as much as the first two. But I read it and I changed my mind. No matter how old you are I definitely recommend this book, I gave it a 5 out of  stars. You probably already know what happened in this book, but for those who don't I'll tell you a little. But for-worn I can't tell you too much, because there's a lot of things in the book that can be spoiled. So in this book Harry is protected by all these people because the criminal Sirius Black escaped  And so Harry can't go on the field trips he wants to. And a shocking thing happens Hagrid starts to teach! Those are just a few things that happen in the book.

Here is the real synopsis:

Harry Potter is lucky to reach the age of thirteen, since he has already survived the murderous attacks of the feared Dark Lord on more than one occasion. But his hopes for a quiet term concentrating on Quidditch are dashed when a maniacal mass-murderer escapes from Azkaban, pursued by the soul-sucking Dementors who guard the prison. It's assumed that Hogwarts is the safest place for Harry to be. But is it a coincidence that he can feel eyes watching him in the dark, and should he be taking Professor Trelawney's ghoulish predictions seriously?

Please read this series it will change your life trust me.
I love reading this series because it makes me feel like a kid again because I grew up with it. 

Thank You and Happy Reading!

Harry Potter and the Chamber of Secrets by J.K. Rowling

Hi,

Last month I read the second book in the Harry Potter series. I really liked this book, I thought it was well passed and fun. So, most of you know who Harry Potter is I'm guessing, and if you don't, please join me on this journey of the wizarding world. September is when the oh so great Harry Potter goes back to school, and yes sadly he has to go to school too. But this isn't any ordinary school year, many things happened and they may or may not include dark magic. Harry goes to school at Hogwarts. 

If you didn't know what or who Harry Potter is I will tell you. This series is about a boy named Harry. He is a wizard, but has to live with his muggle (human) aunt and uncle. But one day everything changes for him because he gets a letter from Hogwarts. And that's where his journey begins. He meets two friends named Hermione Granger and Ron Weasley. And they both go on this epic journey with him. 

This is pretty much that back story for each book. But every book has a different story, if that makes sense. 

In the Harry Potter series there is a lot of dark magic, mainly around Harry. I loved this book, I thought it was fabulous. In the Chamber of secrets, I really did not like Lockhart. But in the end I thought he was hilarious because of recent events. But in the end of this book I thought the plot twist was amazing, I mean I knew what was going to happened because I've seen the movie but if I hadn't it was great. I definitely recommend this book, it was such a fun read. I mean I grew up with Harry Potter so it feels good to kind of be young again and read this series. I think J.K. Rowling has a good sense of imagery in this book because even if you haven't seen the movie you could picture what the place looked like. I gave this book 5 out of 5 stars.

Thank You and Happy Reading!

The Bad Beginning: A Series of Unfortunate Events by Lemony Snicket

Hi,

So, a week or two ago I read the first book in the A Series of Unfortunate Events. I have always wanted to read this series. I thought the first book was good! I thought it was a quick easy read and full of character. If you want an easy read, you should read this book. The book size is tiny, and and the words are kind of big. Also it only has around 160 pages. I read this book in two days with school and a bunch of homework.


The summary of this book is about three children named Violet, Klause and Sunny. There parents died in a fire so they had to go live with another relative, who's name is Count Olaf. After that they go on a crazy adventure and good and bad things happened.


Getting into my review now, I thought Lemony Snicket did a fantastic job overall. I loved the creepiness of the book but also the warmth. In the book there is a lot of different thought and feelings that tied together really well. The main characters of this book were Sunny, Klause and Violet, the book told there story and unfortunate journeys. This book is kind of sad but not too sad like john green or anything like that. One thing that I loved in this book is the characters love of reading. This book made me want a huge library in my own home. I think if a child is reading this it is really good because if the book says a harder word it explains it. There isn't much I can say  about this book without giving away anything because it is such a short book.

I gave this book a 5 out of 5 stars. I would recommend this book if you are in a car ride or in the air port.

Thank You, and Happy Reading!
