Review:The absolutely true diary of a part time indian



Title:The absolutely true diary of a part-ime Indian
Author:Sherman Alexie
Pages:240
Publisher:Little, Brown Books
Source:Bought
Reading Level:Young Adult
Rating:three hearts

Summary:
T
HE ABSOLUTELY TRUE DIARY OF A PART-TIME INDIAN begins with Junior's everyday travails. Born with water on the brain, he suffers a rash of difficult and painful physical traumas daily. Bright and filled with ideas and artistic ability, Arnold Spirit (Junior's beautiful true name) --- the son of an alcoholic and a long-suffering mom --- decides to take a chance, get off the "rez" and attend a white private school in Rearden, Washington (just like Alexie himself did). To his surprise, he leaves the world of bullies and bullying behind him and encounters new friends who share some of his interests. His basketball team meets up with his old classmates on the court, and a battle of both bodies and cultures begins.


Review:
I first heard about this story when my older cousin told me about it. She read me parts hear and there and had me cracking up! This book is incredibly funny, and to some may be a little but "gross". You wouldn't believe that some boys may be actually going through this.
You may not fall in love with Junior like you would heroes in romance novels, but I promise this will get you laughing.

If you have questions, let me know!

Review:Fallen by Lauren Kate


Title:Fallen
Author:Lauren Kate
Pages:464
Publisher:Delacorte Books for Young Readers (December 8, 2009)
Source:Bought
Reading Level:Young Adult
Rating:Four Hearts

Summary:
Luce must spend her senior year at reform school after her boyfriend dies in a mysterious fire. She suspects that the dark shadows that have tormented her all her life had something to do with it. When she meets supernaturally gorgeous Daniel, she feels a familiar longing, making her believe they have met before. Although Cam is clearly interested in her, Luce only wants Daniel, who runs both hot and cold. He tries to keep Luce at a distance, telling her that the truth would kill her as it has many times before.


Review:
Fallen was a terrific book. When I first saw this book I was like, er no thank you. I mean the title sounds a little weird. Then i saw the trailer on T.V! Then it struck me, if it was so good that they made a commercial for it, I should look at it. So That's what I did. I was hesitant at first, but the book had nothing but great reviews. So I picked up a copy. Throughout the book you WILL be confused. But I promise you will understand in the end. The only thing I ask is that you dont put it dont until you finish it. Dont give up!
At first you may think "Who is this Daniel character? Who does he think he is?" well, that's what I thought. But anyways, in the end, im pretty positive you will fall in love with him to.
Fallen is a terribly difficult book to understand in the beginning but you will love the books, and characters in the end. Fallen has many twists and turns you will not expect, but it is a terrific book.

If you have any questions, let me know.

Hachiko: A Dogs Tale

Hachiko: A Dogs Tale
I have just recently watched this movie and I cried. It was such a terrific movie. If you are a dog lover, you will love this movie. My mother recommended it to me and we watched it together, because she saw it already, she didnt cry. But make know mistake, she cried when she saw it. There are not many words to describe the feeling you get when you watch this movie. It was that good.
I give this move a:
