Weekend Hello!

I thought that I would be good and give Mutti something to find when she got home and checked, so here are the two books that I have recently read.

The sky is everywhere by Jandy Nelson. Lennie was never an orinary girl. She was the girl who's mother had left her and the girl who's sister-bailey- is dead. She is thrown into the world of mourning and grief and the only other person who can help her is her bailey's boyfriend-Toby- who had proposed to Bailey and gotten her pregnant before she died. Then the disastrous happens and Lennie starts falling in love with Toby and Toby starts falling in love with her or so they think. She thinks that she is in love with Toby until she meets Joe, the cute new guy in the school band. Joe has just moved from Paris and instantly falls for Lennie and Lennie falls for him. That's when things start to go wrong.

I give it a 9/10 because it was a good soppy love story but it also had the sensible aspect to it.



The Hunger Games, vol. 1, by Suzanne Collins. This book is a post-apocalyptic story of a world- which has been split into 12 Districts- where every year each district has one boy an one girl -who are called tributes- chosen for The Hunger Games which is where they are all put into an arena and either kill or be killed. The tributes have to fight for their life literally.
I give this a 9/10 because it is a good fast-paced adventure book and I liked it.

The first book you mentioned 'The sky is everywhere' sounds like such a great, involved, read that you can't put down. What is it with guys called Joe? Or is that just me? Thank you for your post. Is there anything else you would like to get your hands on to read? Your wish is my command. x
