The Hunger Games

The Hunger Games
By: Suzanne Collins
Pages -374
5/5 stars

This book is one of the best I've ever read! I read it a long time ago but it is totally worth reviewing!

On the continant once known as North America, there lies the capitol, surrounded by twelve small districts. The capitol is mean and cruel and keeps the districts in line by sending one boy and one girl to jthe hunger games, A harsh game watched on live T.V where the contenders fight each other to the death. When Prim, Katniss's younger sister gets chosen to compete in the hunger games, kshe feels she has no choice but to take the place of her sister. In the games, survival will weigh out humanity, life and love.

Brilliant! Awesome! There are so many great things to say about this book1 I loved it! the plot was great! I love the futeristic feel to it and the characters were so vived. Team Peeta or Team Gale? The writting was great, I could not stop reading! The writting was great and the ending was so sad. I have never been into books with violence in them, like thiis one. The hunger games seemed different. The violence was different. This book was filled withu emotion and it takes alot to write like that! Amazing!

Pretty Dead

Pretty Dead
by: Francesca Lia Block
pages: 208
My Star Rating:5/5

AWESOME!!!!!!

Charlotte Emerson is a Vampire. She has everything because she's lived for almost a century with Willian, who attracts danger everywhere he goes. Every one envys her of her designer clothes and porshe, her giant house and freedom but she has lived like that for ever. Everything changes when charlotte meets emily and Jared. Emily loves her for who she is. Charlotte has never loved anyone so much. But one day Emily dies and Willim shows up as a substitute teacher in Charlotte's classroom. Something is happening to Charlotte. The tear in her perfect nails, the blemish on her clear face the tears she sheds over Emily and Willian. Mortality has touched her.

Overall: I loved it! I have to say though, don't judge it by it's cover. I have no idea where the peppermint came from. The word peppermint is'nt even in the book!!! I love how it related to real times like the twin towers blowing up and how deep the characters are! I LoVE JArEd!!!

Blood Promise

Blood Promise
By: Richelle Mead
Pages:
My Star Rating:5/5

I loved it! It was so sad though. The romance in it was devestating. Brilliant!!!!

After Rose makes the most devestating desision of her life, Lissa or Dimitri, she chooses go to Russia in search of Dimitri. Dimitri, the man she loves and the man she must kill. She will never be the same after Dimitri's awakening but her worries will never go away. Ever since Avery arrives at the Academy,Lissa has been recless, doing things she has never done before. The darkness insode her seems to be growing and  the unoticed spirit user isn't helping. Rose is gyetting pushed out of Lissa's head by someone and she Knows something's wrong. She must get back to the Academy ASAP only when your Strigoi lover has trapped you in a strigoi hideout you can only move so fast.

Overall: I thought this book was great! The deepness and intensity between Rose and Dimitri was sad. All the Romance in it was sad. The Rose and Demitri love was hearthrobing. I think Dimitri was trying to convince her to turn Strigoi for a reason other than because he loved her. He didn't want her because he loved her and that killed her. The Avery, Lissa ,Adrian circle was quite amusing. I never even thought she would be a spirit user! It was FABULOUS!!!
