Book: Pride & Prejudice
Author: Jane Austen
Review: This book was a joy to read. Although at times it was a bit slow, there
were parts where I was hooked and couldn't put the book down. It's a wonderful
story of love, pride, judgement, and deceit. This is a book for those who like
to laugh.
Book: Lord
of the Rings Trilogy
Author: J.R.R. Tolkien
Review: OMG! People, you HAVE to read these books. They are so awesome. I love
the LotR movie, but the books just make the movie 1000 times better. The book
has lots of little quirks that you grow to love. Tolkien is so creative. It's
so much fun to read these books! They have so much detail, expression, morals,
even some pathos. You have to read this book. If you do not understand the
movie (even if you don't really want to) you should read these books. They
are so worth it. (And for all of you students out there like me: Once you read
these books, it will make most every other book seem easy to read!!!)

Midnight Club
Author: Christopher Pike
Review: It was about a group of teens who were all about to die but they still
had time to sit down at 12:00 every night to tell stories!!!

Was Here

Book: Define "Normal"
Author: Julie Anne Peters
Review: I really enjoyed this book. It shows how people tend to judge certain
people by how they look, and how these judgements can be wrong. It also shows
how two totally different people can become the best of friends.
