REVIEW: This book was great, but missing fabulous. It had fantastic characters, the dialogue wasn't to shabby, but the part that I did not like was the plot. Some how it seemed as if it to much of this and not enough of that. It was always lacking something. But its not as bad as i made it sound its an astounding book. Also, this book just made me mad, i get it for my birthday thinkin' it'll be awesome and Shane and Claire are on the edge Michaels goin insane and Eve kind of annoys me. Which is a sad thing to say the book was a big disapointment, but still great.

BR: The Hunger Games By: Suzanne Collins
BR: If I Stay By: Gayle Forman
In a single moment, everything changes. Seventeen-year-old Mia has no memory of the accident; she can only recall riding along the snow-wet Oregon road with her family. Then, in a blink, she finds herself watching as her own damaged body is taken from the wreck....
A sophisticated, layered, and heartachingly beautiful story about the power of family and friends, the choices we all make - and the ultimate choice Mia commands.
RATING: 5 STARS
COVER: I have to admit this cover drew me in more than the first one. And i liked the inside flap/cover of the cracked glass kinda also drew me in.
REVIEW: Ok, warning do not read this in public because you will probably tear up a little or alot. But don't worry there's still tons of humor. This book is so heartacheingly beautiful you won't be able to put it down even for a second, you'll probably go to the bathroom with it. The hardest decision she has to make is whether to stay with Adam, her friends, the world, etc. Or join her parents in death. And each time she starts to get serious about leaving her condition gets worse, or better if she thinks happy thoughts. The ending might come as a shocker, with how the book goes. The romance is extremly beautiful and it makes me cry when she thinks about past memories with him. Ok, I know I'm switchin topics super fast, but yeah.... Anyway, yes there is a sequal written from Adam's POV. And its pretty awesome to.

BR: The Forest Of Hands And Teeth By: Carrie Ryan
In Mary's world there are simple truths. The Sisterhood always knows best. The Guardians will protect and serve. The Unconsecrated will never relent. And you must always mind the fence that surrounds the village; the fence that protects the village from the Forest of Hands and Teeth. But, slowly, Mary’s truths are failing her. She’s learning things she never wanted to know about the Sisterhood and its secrets, and the Guardians and their power, and about the Unconsecrated and their relentlessness. When the fence is breached and her world is thrown into chaos, she must choose between her village and her future—between the one she loves and the one who loves her. And she must face the truth about the Forest of Hands and Teeth. Could there be life outside a world surrounded in so much death?
Rating: 2 1/2 STARS
Cover: The cover was pretty good the girls make-up was nice and it had a mysterious/ weird aura goin on with it which i loved, along with the title and description. ZOMBIES!!
Review: Okay, this book had one major problem and then some mini ones here and there. Which i didn't take to well and it made it hard to fully enjoy the scenes. I also didn't like how the love triangle/romance thing was written there issues and at moments the character was acting way, wel, out of character even if there was a possibility for her to be having a pchychotic break down. And if you want to read it just check the library, if they don't have it then don't spend or worry to much about it. But, i did love how descriptive the author was and at moments it was a little to over bearing. And then it'd smooth right out. The author blended the emotions together pretty well. And over all, it was an okay book.
