The Truth about Forever by Sarah Dessen

4.5/5
Macy Queen has been merely going through the motions of life after she witnessed her father's death. But then she joins the Wish Catering crew and meets Wes, and her world turns upside down. Slowly, Macy begins "living" again. This is not just a love story - it is the story of how a emotionally-scarred girl ventures out of her shell. The Truth about Forever is touching, heart warming, and beautifully written. I highly recommend it for a rainy day.

Gone with the Wind by Margaret Mitchell

5/5
At over 1,000 pages, Gone With the Wind may be daunting at first, but it quickly becomes a book that you simply can’t put down. Margaret Mitchell's masterpiece is set in the Civil War era and tells a captivating story of the southern belle Scarlett O'Hara and the infamous Rhett Butler. The novel was later made into one of the most successful films in history, starring Vivian Leigh and Clark Gable, however the movie cannot even compare to the book. Margaret Mitchell depicts characters in the book as multi-faceted, understandable, and all with lifelike human emotions and interactions. Through all of struggles in the course of the novel, Scarlett stays strong, and in the end, she is still hopeful of what tomorrow will bring. Gone With the Wind is brilliant in its entirety, so complete with historical facts and engaging with an unpredictable plot. Poignant and enchanting, Gone With the Wind proves itself to be one of the best novels ever written. It is a book I would highly recommend to anyone.

Twenties Girl by Sophie Kinsella

4.2/5
I was very skeptical at first when I picked up this book(despite my love for Sophie Kinsella)because it is a story of a girl haunted by the spirit of her Great-Aunt Sadie, who can't find rest until she finds her necklace. However, Kinsella makes the situation almost believable through her vivid description. Lara a jaded twenty-something and her Great-Aunt, who comes back from the dead as a 23 year old from the 1920's, make a hilarious duo. Infused with Kinsella's trademark wit and charm, Twenties Girl is am immensely satisfying and uplifting novel.

Fever by Robin Cook

5/5
It was an interesting book about a young teen girl who gets leukemia. It mainly goes through her father's adventures while he looks for a cure. It is very heart warming to see the daddy-daughter scenes. There are some very dramatic scenes, all of which help contribute to the advancement of the plot.

Maximum Ride: the final warning by James Patterson

5/5
I liked this book for many reasons. I liked it because it was a cliffhanger at the end of every chapter. It makes you want to turn the page and you really don't want the book to end. It combines a lot of life values. It is about 6 humans who were mutated and have wings. These 6 people were tested and tortured until they were able to escape. Max is the leader of this gang. The rest of the gang includes Fang, Nudge, Gasman, Iggy, and Angel. This story is about how they are trying to save the world because some people want to demolish half the world.
