Shiver

Shiver

By Maggie Stiefvater

Grace has always loved wolves her whole life. They lurk in the woods near her house, and she has watched them for years now. Over the years, she has "claimed" a wolf with yellow eyes, since he feels familiar to her, but she doesn't know why. Meanwhile, Sam has always lived a double life. Most of the time he lives as a wolf due to being bitten by one when he was one. He is a wolf when it is cold, and for a short time every year, he transforms into a human. Sam has also had a crush on Grace, and he watches her when he is a wolf. Even when he is a human, he has never risked talking to Grace. One year, when he turns back into a human, he decides to talk to Grace, and it pays off. The two fall in love, but that's when Sam and Grace are given the news that Sam might not change back into a human next year. Grace is determined to find out a way for Sam to stay, but Sam is getting weaker from the cold. Time is running out. Can Grace save Sam from is fate? Or will Sam stay a wolf forever? Find out by reading Shiver, which I give 5 stars. I recommend this book to whoever loves a good read that you won't be able to put down.

Insurgent

Insurgent

By Veronica Roth

One choice can transform you—or it can destroy you. But every choice has consequences, and as unrest surges in the factions all around her, Tris Prior must continue trying to save those she loves—and herself—while grappling with haunting questions of grief and forgiveness, identity and loyalty, politics and love. Tris's initiation day should have been marked by celebration and victory with her chosen faction; instead, the day ended with unspeakable horrors. War now looms as conflict between the factions and their ideologies grows. And in times of war, sides must be chosen, secrets will emerge, and choices will become even more irrevocable—and even more powerful. Transformed by her own decisions but also by haunting grief and guilt, radical new discoveries, and shifting relationships, Tris must fully embrace her Divergence, even if she does not know what she may lose by doing so.

The Testing

The Testing

By Joelle Charbonneau

This book... Isn't my favourite. It is like the hunger games, but with everything that made the hunger games so good taken out of it. (the gore, sadness, etc.) I read on one site that is was more optimistic, but it isn't! Cia, although resourceful, is too perfect for me... she doesn't have any flaws made clear to the audience. The characters don't have that much personality and description is sparse. It was alright, but could not be compared to the hunger games, Marie Lu's Legend, and all other books of this sort.

The Pearl (The Originals)

The Pearl (The Originals)

By JOHN STEINBECK

wow, i don't know what to say besides THIS BOOK WAS EXCELLENT!!! In every single chapter drama and even a little accidental comedy is introduced. There are constant twists, changes in characters ('wink wink kino') and I am always satisfied with the chapter. I would recommend this book to any kid over 10 and any adult or teenager. I am sure you will at least love it!

Adventures of Tom Sawyer (Boys' & Girls' Library)

Adventures of Tom Sawyer (Boys' & Girls' Library)

By Mark Twain

A classic by Mark Twain of "Adventures of Tom Sawyer" which is about a boy who goes by the well-known name of Tom Sawyer with at first mischievous and immature boy at the beginning of the story, often getting in trouble with his aunt Polly often scold her nephew. You would often see that Tom would be with his friend, Huck (Huckleberry Finn) whom Tom really close to, getting in trouble, too with him. Then Rebecca (known most of time as just Becky) Thatcher, a daughter of the town's new judge, as Tom got the romantic interest in Becky, got "engaged" due to the kiss until it's revealed by Tom that he actually "engaged" by another girl, Amy Lawrence, had the fight with Becky about it. Then, we have Injun Joe, a Native American who would defend himself most of time but got the racism from Tom and Huck. Later in the book, as Tom grew more considerate, kind, funny, and more mature than the beginning of the story. I had to read this for school and finally finished with this book today as I didn't really enjoy this due to the type of English which is Old English which can make me more harder to understand and also with the racism against the colored or even Native Americans. - Happy Reading...maybe!

Ignite Me (Shatter Me)

Ignite Me (Shatter Me)

By Tahereh Mafi

From the ashes, she is rising. In Juliette there's kindling made of strength from training, there's oxygen from an air of willingness to fight, and finally a spark of suppressed power ready to be unleashed and ignite a fire that burns the Re-establishment down. I enjoyed this book much more than the first one, as Juliette undergoes major character development that makes her ten times more like-able. She goes from weak and cowering, to fierce and courageous. And as the plot progresses with her, it really engages the reader and calls focus to all the tiny details in the story. But I won't spoil anything ;). And as any good dystopian book has one, the slow-burn love interest Warner and Juliette's relationship is so delicately written it's almost a work of art. It seems that Tahereh Mafi's writing has improved so much from book one to book two, and is definitely recommended for anybody searching for a new YA read. Where there's smoke, there's fire, where there's fire, there's uproar and commotion, and where uproar and commotion in a subdued dystopian neighborhood, there's Juliette, Warner, and their team.

The Bluebird and the Sparrow (Women of the West #10)

The Bluebird and the Sparrow (Women of the West #10)

By Janette Oke

Berta Berdette, who always felt like she's just a plain and unworthy compared to her younger sister, Glenna who was very outgoing and beautiful. This also had caused the girls' parents to treat them differently due to their personalities. But everything would change, deaths too plus also finding the suitors for both of the girls but delayed for Berta herself. This story is kind of depressing than of what I read of Janette Oke's other books but still I still do enjoy because it gives me the different outlook of how people live due to their past of growing up, their personalities differences but can still set the differences aside and learn and possibly love them for who they are. - Happy Reading!

Shatter Me

Shatter Me

By Tahereh Mafi

Ok, so, to clarify, the book is really more of a 3.5 than three. The reason being, the book has so much hype built around it, receiving accolades like "best dystopian read" on platforms like booktok. And as a lover of a good book, I couldn't wait to buy and read it. And while the reader really does feel like they are in Juliette's chaotic mind, at points it also seems it's trying too hard to be deep. Which may just sound like picky-ness, but after 338 pages, it can feel like trying to put a square peg in a round hole. However, the plot is fast-paced, and keeps the fire alive without letting it fizzle out, and the dystopian world creates a sense of danger that is hard to replicate. On the other hand, the main character, Juliette, is slightly selfish, which is another reason why the book wasn't all it was made up to be. But, overall, Tahereh Mafi did a commendable job emulating a world of grays where all hope seems to be lost, but here, we have Juliette. Ready to set this dark world ablaze with her game-changing ability.
