Virginia was a great woman. If she was never born, World War Two might be a lot more longer and more people ( mostly Jewish people) might suffer and die. Anne Frank was one of these people. She risked her life while trying to gather information that might help the Allied forces win this war. Read this book to find out more!!

The book monster is a really great book. It keeps you thinking and on the edge of your seat. It is about a boy named Steve Harmon who is on trial for the murder of a drug store owner. The book monster is the movie script of the movie monster Steve Harmon is writing. The movie is the story of the trial and everything that has happened. It has a lot of arguments, conflict, dialogue, and mystery. I hope you will take the time to read the book monster. It is worth it.

Dracula
By Bram Stoker
Dias
Bram Stoker’s Dracula is a classic novel horror based in the United Kingdom. I would recommend this story to people that enjoy horror stories. The beginning of this story entices the readers to read more. Not being a horror story fan I lost interest after the third chapter. This story is about the notorious Count Dracula, king of vampires, and Van Helsing the known Vampire hunter, and his group of comrades. For those that enjoy vampire stories this is one of the books you need to read, it introduces a new person that most vampire fans do not know about. You learn about Van Helsing and his understudy, Lucy western and Count Dracula.
