Blended

By Sharon M. Draper

Have you ever felt like you don't know if you are this or that? Maybe you felt torn apart. Or maybe you even felt like you don't belong. Then welcome to Isabella's world. Her life hasn't been easy. Well, it's easier if I start from the beginning. Isabella's parents' got a divorce, one of the worst things that could possibly happen (her mom is white and her dad is black). Now, she goes to her moms house, then the next week her dads house, then switch and the same thing over and over. It makes her feel like a visitor because she can't live in a permanent place. After the divorce her mom has a new boyfriend and her dad has a new girlfriend. So much is going on, it's hard for Isabella to take in. After a few months or so Isabella's friend finds a noose in her gym locker. Suddenly, there are more questions than answers! Who would do such a thing to one of her best friends? While the mystery is still not solved other things are going on, that is her moms boyfriend proposed to her mom and her dad proposed to his girlfriend! Not only that ,she has a piano competition coming up! As she is on her way to the competition they get stopped by the police. What is going on? Hands up! Isabella is scared and as she is pulling her phone out from her pocket to text her parents, BANG! She falls to the floor. My thoughts: Wow! What a fantastic book! There was so much going on in this book that sadly, I just could not fit it in my review. But if I can't fit it in my review and you want to know what happens then you have to get this book! Isabella is very inspiring! She has gone through so much but she just keeps going!I recommend you read this book!!! And I hope after you read this book you will also be inspired. Have an awesome day!

THE MAGIC FINGER (THE BEST OF ROALD DAHL)

THE MAGIC FINGER (THE BEST OF ROALD DAHL)

By TONY ROSS (ILLUSTRATOR) ROALD DAHL

I loved this book so much i read it over and over again. My favourite part about this book is when the girl in this story put the magic finger on her teacher because she spelt the word cat wrong in class and the teacher said that she was a stuipd girl and that is when she put the magic finger on the teacher and the teacher started growing a tail and whickers. I would recommend this book to people who like funny stories.

Auggie & Me: Three Wonder Stories

Auggie & Me: Three Wonder Stories

By R. J. Palacio

This books is definitely one of the books I will not forget. I love this book so much and I also love the moral of this story. Julian is one of the those kids in the story that can come off as a nice kid and then different around kid. If I could, I could read this book over and over and it would not get boring. This book is filled with so much excitement and emotion. This is about this 5th grader that is born with facial defects. When he goes to school he meets Julian. Julian gets very upset that he is going to his school. He then finds his own ways to get back at August. Will Julian learn to deal with it or never learn from it? I personally really love this book. I also really recommend that you read all of her other books. They are just as good as this one. If you are looking for a book that is impossible to put down definitely get this one.

Pluto: A Wonder Story

Pluto: A Wonder Story

By R. J. Palacio

This book wasn't worth the trouble. One star from me! After waiting a long, long time to read this book, I finally got it on the ebook library. I was waiting for it so bad, but when I got it, it wasn't worth the trouble of waiting. I did not like this book very much. For one thing, the time it took place was in the middle of the school year and was only about one day. I thought it would be interesting like Wonder, and I hoped it would at least be okay like The Julian Chapter, but it was way, way below. The ending wasn't satisfying, and the whole book was 100% BORING. I didn't like this book at ALL. I feel like R. J. Polacio only wrote this book because people loved Wonder so much, and she thought that Pluto would sell well because of that. If that was her train of thought, then she was right, and I bet this book will sell REALLY well because lots of people want to read this. (I wanted to!) But I think that lots of people will be disappointed. Although, I must say that even though Pluto wasn't good, I still want to read Shingaling (which is from Charlotte's perspective).

The Catcher in the Rye

The Catcher in the Rye

By J.D. SALINGER

Catcher in the Rye by J.D. Salinger is a very interesting story about a high school boy called Holden. At the beginning of the story, Holden is annoyed in several situations so he decides to go to New York. Holden tends to do "adult things" but his mind just becomes more and more chaotic. I don't really like the ending of this book because it was unclear as to what happened to Holden. Although this book is slightly complicated, I liked reading and understanding how the world is presented to Holden, his love for his sister and Jane will never change, while everyone else is dirty and complexed. He has to deal with who he is, death of his brother, relationships with everyone, and most importantly, himself. Because of the people he cares about, he has to suffer all the pain himself and hide it deep down his heart. People should definitely read this book, the thoughts Holden has will never get you to stop thinking about our society!

Of Mice and Men

Of Mice and Men

By John Steinbeck

Of Mice and Men: Summary Have you ever wondered what it would be like to work on a ranch during the Great Depression in the early 30’s? Then, Of Mice and Men by John Steinbeck would be a good book for you. This book takes place in the Salinas Valley in California. The protagonists (or two main characters), are Lennie and George. They are two guys who wander around work on a ranch, then another, and another. This is what was called jumpers. Their dream is to own a farm for themselves. Sometimes the world isn't so nice though. One conflict is that Lennie is a special man, that has trouble remembering stuff, this is a problem that they face throughout the whole book. Another conflict is that Lennie is very strong, and not good with small animals. The turning point is when they find a farm that pays good money. They think by working there for a month, they can save up enough to get their land. Although things get heated between Lennie and the antagonist; Curley. This book is very fast paced and has a few swears, but overall, the message is that even the best intentions don’t always end well. Of Mice and Men is my favorite book and hope it will be yours too.
