The last book i read was To Kill a Mockingbird. This book is a great classic, that i really enjoyed reading. This book is written by Harper Lee in the 1960's and it still relates to people today.

This book is a bout a young girl who goes through alot. Her father is fighting through a case where he is supporting a black man. Alot of people don't believe in this. The book teaches alot about life and how cruel people can be.

The Notebook

The book that i just recently read over summer vacation was The Notebook written by Nicholas Sparks, in 2004. The story begins as an old man in a nursery home is reading to a older woman and it goes back to when a young man named Noah Calhoun and a young woman named Allie Hamilton meet at a carnival and they fell in love the moment they seen one another. They only spent one summer together because Allie's father was working in the town. They spent every waking moment together until she had to leave, until many years later Allie see's an article in the newspaper about a house that Noah bought and is fixing up. So Allie decides she needs to go back to the town and tell Noah something that he needs to know, but what she doesnt know is that Noah is still and always will be madly in love with Allie.
I would reccommend this book to anyone who enjoys a true lasting love story. It also has a hint of mystery. It is also a page turner, 256 pages just isnt enough. i also enjoy many different types of books. i read just about anything and i am open to reading just about anything.

The last book i read

The last book i read was the duel, a factual book that compares the lives of Aaron Burr and Alexander Hamilton. The book is written like a novel but is a biography, it tells the story of both men and how thir destinies crossed over and over again until the end were they fight to the death.

I really liked this book because it talks about historical facts in a nove like way which is more interesting than just a a simple biography book. The book is divided in two parts, in one it talks of alexanders' life and in the other one about Aarons' life. It compares parallel events on their lifes from each mans' point of view

Luna Bay: Pier Pressure

The last book I read was named Luna Bay: Pier Pressure. It was written by Francess Lin Lantz in 2003. This book is # 1 in the Roxy series. I picked this book because I love surfing and this book as well as the series revolves around that topic.

The story is about Luna and her friends trying to prepare for the intense upcoming surf competition during summer while working at a surf camp. Luna however is under more pressure for the competition in order to live up to her mother's legendary surfing status. This book is more a girlish book but it has to do with surfing. With that said I would recommend this book to girls or people who like stuff about surfing. I would prefer books like this because I'm interested in sporty based books.

Lord of The Flies

The last book i read independently read was The Giver. This book was written by Lois Lowry in 1993. I picked the book because it sounded like it would be a interesting book. The main plot was there is a secret civilization, and everyone in the society had a role. You were given your role and had no say about it. The main character in the story struggled to find the hidden things about the society and to escape from the village. I would recommend this book to anyone who likes books about struggle adventure or if you just want a unique book. I am interested in reading a novel about baseball or sports in general.

The Mortal Instruments

The most recent books I have read is The Mortal Instruments by Cassandra Clare. This series contains three books: City of Bones, City of Ashes, and City of Glass. Clare was born overseas and spent her childhood traveling. From a young age she was reading fantasy books. City of Bones was first published in 2007 with the other two books to follow. I was reccomended this series by my mom.
Clary Fray's ordinary, mundane life was flipped upside down when she sees a murder at the Pandemonium Night Club. Clary's normal human life is now filled with demons, shadowhunters, vampires, and werewolves. Clary turns to the three suspicious teenagers at the club when her mother disappears. She questions her life when her sight comes in clear. These books are a fun, entertaining read. I would recommend this series to girls who are interested in fantasy books, they are similar to the Twlight series but with more action. I'm interested in any modern fiction book, but i usally look for fun, suspenseful books to read.
