Forged by Fire (Hazelwood High Trilogy)
By Sharon M. Draper
Nice adventure of a kid who has to go through life's greatest hardships. It can at some times be very emotional. And it make me think how lucky I am. Because I am a foster child but who came from a similar background as the main character in this story.

what i think about the book & movie is that it is very exciting the movie is the same but it is a little bit scary because i thought the little boy killed the dad but it was a goblin. That is what i like about it
War and Peace (Classics)
By Leo Tolstoy
Okay. Let me get this straight. Most people won't believe me, but I have read this whole book, all 1000+ pages. It is so dry. If you dunked it in a bathtub filled with water, it would still be dry. If you dumped it in the Pacific Ocean, it would STILL be dry! It took two months to read (a normal 500 page would take me an estimated three weeks) and the epilogue had like, two parts! It's an achievement to finish reading the whole book, and definitely another to enjoy it (which I did not). If you really feel like reading this, go for it, but personally, I would not recommend it. I could rant on and on about War and Peace and its dryness, but I don't want to have you all staring at your devices for six hours or more just because you are reading this review, so, I'll put it into a "short" summary: It takes place in Russia in the 1800s and Russia is fighting in a war. The women get SUPER emotional about how their husbands are going away to war. A lot of people die. It's not super graphic, but it's not just "He was fighting. He died" either. I really disliked this book. Mic drop.
Sway
By Amber McRee Turner
Cass completely idolizes her mom, Toodi Bleu (she basically thinks her mom is the best thing since sliced bread). Toodi Bleu volunteers for a rescue squad, so she's never home for very long. Cass dreams of being just like her mom. Cass's dad, Douglas, is fine, but not as cool. But when Toodi Bleu abandons Cass and Douglas, Cass is completely heartbroken, and blames her dad. So Douglas takes Cass on a road trip in an old RV called The Roast, in hope that they can bond. What I thought of it: Honestly, I wanted to love this book because I thought the plot was great. But the way it was written kept me from really liking it. I liked Cass, but she could be annoying and jerky at times especially when it came to her mom. I liked Douglas, and I felt bad for him when Cass blamed him for Toodi Bleu's absence. I liked Cass's cousin Syd too, and I wish he was in more of the book. Overall it was an ok book.
