The Hobbit

     This week I still read the Hobbit with my book group. I don't want to spoil what we have talked about in our group, or just spoil the book for you, (if you haven't read it) but, we talked about luck. How Bilbo has been lucky throughout this entire book and how it was "lucky" that he found the ring and things like that.

      Anyway, like I said, I don't want to spoil the whole book but i'll kind of recap the book so far. Its about a Hobbit who is visited by dwarfs who want him to go on a journey. When he says no they leave, and he thinks it over and decides to go. They have a whole lot of adventures and they sing, and fight and the whole 9 yards.

      I Loovve this book and recommend it for all.

The Hobbit

This week I read the Hobbit for my book group. I have already read this before, but it was just as good and I noticed things I haven't before. For those of you that don't know this book is about Bilbo Baggins. Bilbo is invited to go on an adventure. When he declines he thinks about it for a while and then actually goes. This book was very good and well written.

I think everyone should read this book because it is awesome! My favorite caricatures were Fili and Kili. They are very funny and cool.

No mature warnings    


    This week I read If I Stay, which was actually a lot better than I thought it was going to be. It is about 17 year old Mia Hall. Who has to deal with a catastrophic car accident. In a coma, in a hospital, Mia has an experience out of her body. She sees herself, she sees her friends and family visit her. Memories start to come back to her, and Mia must decide to stay alive and deal with a life far worse than she thought. Or slip away. Her decision is obviously life changing and very hard.

My favorite character is Mia of course because I like how strong she stays as she has to go through everything and the decision she has to make.

Elanor and Park

   This week I read Elanor and Park. It was a good book. I recommend it for everyone. Unless I am mistaken there weren't any mature topics. Besides loooove.

   It is about a red haired girl and an Asian boy named Elanor and Park they both don't have perfect lives but they found they find comport within each other. One day on the bus Elanor and Park awkwardly sit together on the bus until they come to the conclusion that they both like good music and comics. Once the science is broken, the two fall in to a tornado of looooove and their lives will never be the same.......

  This was a very well written book, and I enjoyed it a lot.

  I can't decide who I like better in this book. Both these caricatures come from pretty tough backgrounds and it's one of those books that I will never be able to decide who I like better.
