FADE!

LISA MCMANN
YAY! finally got it yesterday and i finished it in a few hours. i've started again but sister is reading it so she stole it from me!
awwww mah god i loves these books! fade was just as good as, if not better than, wake. written just as beautifully, funny, sad.
this book made me really sad. like i didn't want to talk to people for a while sad. of course i did talk, but i was still sad. and the beginning, which wasn't even a sad part, made me sad. cuz it's just so hard for janie and cabel. and i don't want it to be. they need it to be good, easy, and it's not. so seriously i almost cried and nothing really sad happened.
and oooo la la dirty part! just saying. but it wasn't written like nasty nasty, it was sweet.
i was twittering while i read this and i'm sure i got annoying. but it was only for the good parts! pages 102 and 203 made me pee, for very different reasons. 100 pages separate the happiest part and the saddest part.
and the end was happy, but still sad. bittersweet. so now i'm an emotional wreck because i don't know what to think or feel about this book and why do i like books? they just make me sad.
and now i've decided that this trilogy is like nancy drew only better. cuz cabe's prolly wayyy hotter than those Hardy boys.
now i can't wait for Gone. dad says no countdown on the chalkboard for a year. we'll see about that.
thank you lisa mcmann for this trilogy, come to milwaukee please!

NIGHT

ELIE WIESEL
second time i've read this. it's very good. and sad. but i like said books. and it's actually written very well, which i didn't appreciate a few years ago when we read it in school. it was also much shorter than i remembered and only took me a weekend to read.
so yeah, it's a classic, everyone should or already has read Night.
ps. tis about the holocaust if you didn't know.

nothin much to say but i feel i should check in every once in a while and not just when i've got to write about a book.
and since i have tons of homework to do, now seems like the perfect time!
sister is learning pi. she wants to cream the 7th graders who are calling her stupid. imma gonna beat those kids up as soon as i can find some strong kids to come help me.
still waiting on Fade but it's so close i can taste it!
yummmm

so apparently everyone reads this in 5th grade but i obvi did not get the memo. i actually reallly liked this book! it was a mystery and it was totallly confusing so i don't know how you could read it and understand if you're not smart and old like me. and i kept trying to guess it and i was totally wrong. shows how much i know. that turtle girl is a genius.

really? really? this book is like the most trivial thing ever. it counts for nothing in this world. it was stilly okay, about falling for the good not-as-popular guy, but still. the best part was that she played the guitar. man i should learn that. this book was really fast too. and now i'm supposed to read the other books in this LOVE LETTERS series. fine i will whatever.

i've read 7 books this year! and they're mostly short...
sorry it's been so long since my last post
