Book Review #10: Dash and Lilly's Book of Dares and 13 Reasons Why

I just finished reading the book Dash and Lilly's Book of Dares. It is a really interesting book. It is about these teenagers Dash and Lilly who communicate and meet through a red moleskin note book. This entire book is about how they keep sending letters to each other and having them go somewhere to meet one of their family members or something like that. I really enjoyed reading this book because I thought I was pretty special that they were able to meet each other through writing.

I am now currently ready the book 13 Reasons Why. This book is about a boy named Clay who receives audio tapes of a girl named Hannah (who recently committed subside) and talking about 13 reasons why she committed suicide. I was going to read this book earlier in the year but I thought I would be to heavy for my to read. I changed my opinion about it after I read Rachel's blog. She was talking about how it was a really good book and that everyone will like it so I decide that if Rachel can read it, I can read it so I read it. It has been really good so far! Thank you for reading!

Book Review #9: The Fault in Our Stars

I recently finished reading the book The Fault In Our Stars by John Green. One of the parts of this book that really made it unique was a book that couldn't really be categorized. Like with the pretty little liars books, they were categorized as a mystery and with The Fault in Our Stars had a little bit of everything. It had romance and a tragedy, and a little bit of mystery. Also the two main character Hazel and Augustus (Gus), they talked to each other in these metaphorical lines that made the reader feel a deeper emotional feel to the book.

Another reason why this book is great even though it is sort of a cancer book, it doesn't have the heavy stuff that other cancer books have. Like in cancer books, they talk about how much it sucks and then the character that you suspected dies at the end, well this book is nothing like that! The ending of the book was so sad that I basically spent all night sobbing. It surprised me, how everything turned out! I hoped that their friend Isaac would not have to loose his eyes and that Hazel's lungs would never fill up with water again. This book was recommended to me by Franny so now, I recommend this book to everyone! This book is amazing! So far one of the best books that I have read this year. If you would like to know more about this book, you know where to find me!
