Cathy's Key


As you clearly remember from my Cathy's Book review I am Cathy-obsessed. I loved Cathy's Book and I felt no different about it's sequel.

In the beginning Cathy goes to a fortune teller named Auntie Joe, Cathy found out about Auntie Joe online and later in the book we find out that it was no coincidence. Meanwhile Victor is still working for Ancestor Lu and has just come across a serum that could turn Cathy immortal, so she can live with him forever, only problem is that he doesn't know exactly where it is and he can't exactly be with Cathy.

Cathy develops new crushes, new frenemies and destroys enemies. Cathy just has such a fantastic life full of near death experiences and romance with her friends, mainly Emma. Don't you wish you were her, I sure do!

In this story we are introduced to new characters such as Ben, Jewel and Dennis, and we learn some interesting information about the world of immortals and mysterious characters.

Cathy's Key gets 10 out of 10 for its sheer awesome-ness!



*Insider information tells me that the next book in Cathy's series will be named Cathy's Ring. I think she gets married (to Victor) what do you think happens?

Eclispe by Stephenie Meyer



MY apologies, people. I haven't been on for more than a month and that's just inexcusable. I'm truly sorry. You totally have the right to hate me! Moving on to the review.


OK, so Bella has to choose between Edward and Jacob and she's having a VERY, ridiculously hard time. To top things of someones after her, again and nobody knows. Edward says it's The Volturi, Bella says it's Victoria. Who's it?


Poor Edward, his reason for living is being hunted, again. But that's not all Bella wants something that Edward's reluctant to give her, but he always gives in, will he give in now? He says she can have it when she marries him, but will his will power fade to Bella's whim. It always does. So what's going to happen this time?


READ TO FIND OUT! My lips are shut! I know short, but I really don't want to spoil it for anyone who hasn't read it yet. I know most of you have, there still are those few who haven't. 10 and out of 10!

Hazing Meri Sugarman by M. Apostolina!


Cindy Bixby is a self acclaimed loser, in high school she is ridiculed for her looks, her brains, and her social status, but she is determined to change all that in college by joining her mother's old sorority, Alpha Beta Delta.


After the hectic and very crazy Pledge Week, Cindy's dreams come true. She has a new makeover which her look hot. She's instantly popular for being an Alpha Beta Delta sister, she's a cheerleader, and she doesn't have to take her classes, but still gets straight A's. Everything is going great. It seems like it's going to be this amazing forever with the help of Meri Sugarman everything thing seems that way. But it didn't stay that way. Does it ever?


You want to know why it didn't stay that way? Well then I'll lay it out for you. Meri Sugarman isn't as sweet as her name might portray. She is in fact a megalomaniac with a knack for controlling everyone around her to get what she wants. If you defy her you will pay! Whether you steal her ex-boyfriend or watch a movie that isn't foreign she will have a plan to torture you 'till you die. No, she wont kill you with her rifle, no, that's for the bluebirds. Instead she'll hurt you and hurt you badly.


Punishments range from hours tied to a bed under burning heating lamps or shaving your head from handsies-kneesies to lowering your GPA below that of a mental person.


Where ever you are, she's there. So don't think you're safe in your dorm room or your bathroom or your boyfriend's dorm room not even the dean's office. She is monitoring it all!


What are Cindy and her friends to do? When faced with a task as impossible as hazing Meri Sugarman. Will Cindy and her friends succeed or is Meri too powerful to overthrow? Read and you will surely find out.


This was a very well written novel, the first by Michael Apostolina and a grandly memorable novel to that. I loved the way Michael portrayed college life in the eyes of Cindy. The alcohol, the sex, the drugs, the people, everything. It was a great story that left me speechless and wanting more at the last page. This book definetely deserves a 10 out of 10! It taught me that individuality is key. The key to the closed door...
On a different note, Happy Fourth of July! Remember only four more days 'till my birthday so get your presents ready. He-he...

Last Chapter of Story!

It took a while,but I had writer's block.I also made another book which I'll make another blog for!
Here we go...

On the day of the contest Jada dressed in a lovely brown dress and some black flats and so did her friends. When it was their turn they got up and sang her song. Everybody loved it and the camp leaders were all persuaded into letting the girls read their Bibles at camp. They were all thrilled and celebrated by having a little party with a Jesus theme.
Jada and her friends never got tired of camp when it was time to go they got each other's cellphone numbers and always stayed touch. 'Till this day all of the girls remember the song by heart.

GOD bless you all. Bye-Bye!

Who Stole Halloween?


Honestly, this book was pretty boring, but it might not be for someone who likes mysteries, or Halloween, or cats. It probably isn't a great book for people who don't enjoy a good children's book (like me). Anyway this book is a mystery novel about a cat named Halloween who was kidnapped. Well 2 kids try to solve the mystery and at the end they find out that the cat napper is a teacher who uses cat hair to make gel capsules for improving eyesight. Creepy, Huh. Well overall this book gets 4 out of 10 because it was boring, but that doesn't mean you won't like it.

Bud, Not Buddy


I had to read this book because it was on my summer reading list and it was interesting, but i didn't really like it. Bud, Not Buddy is a historical fiction story about a 10 year old orphan boy who's mother died when he was 6 and he never knew his father. So one day he runs away from the orphanage to look for his father and on the way he meets some interesting people and sees some interesting stuff.He eventually finds Herman F. Calloway who he remembers from old fliers that his mother had. At the end he find out that Herman F.Calloway was not his father, but rather his mother's father. Overall this book gets a 5 out of 10!

Peter And The Starcatchers!!!


So I had to read this book for The Massachusetts Book Award Program, awhile back and I absolutely loved it! This book was amazing because it had every genre you could think of. The main character Peter is shipped away to Rundoon to became a servant of the evil King Zarboff the third with his other orphan friends and on the way, he meets new people and his life is changed forever. In the beginning, Peter and his orphans friends get shipped away in the Neverland ,a ship.In the middle, Peter meets Molly and brews plans of escaping while trying to solve the mystery of the secret trunk. At the end Peter finds out about the secret trunk, helps the Starcatchers and from the stardust he becomes a boy who lives forever, never ages, can fly and other stuff. This lovely book is a twist on the classic novel Peter Pan and is riveting yet strong which draws my attention and makes me celebrate every minute of reading through this book's pages. Overall this book gets a 7 out of 10!

The Holy Bible!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


This is the best book ever. It's not just a book it is a guide for your life that you should always follow. It's got great stories in it and they all teach you amazing life lessons. Best of all it gives you the tools to keep you from going to Hell. This book doesn't even need a rating because it passes all books that have ever been written. I strongly recommend this book to everyone because it is amazing and if you are not a born again Christian it will save your life. So you should buy this book today and read it from Genesis to Revelation. It might be long,but you will never regret it. In fact you will cherish it in all the days that you live.Bye!!!

TTYL!


This book is the first novel ever written entirely in instant messaging. This book is about the true friendship of three fifteen year old girls. This book is full of sicko crushes, jerky girls, and much more. It is full of up and downs and funky situations. One of the characters (Maddie)makes fun of Christianity which makes me sick and another (Zoe) explores the religion. A teacher tries to get REAL close to Zoe using Christianity as an excuse which makes my stomach churn with anger, but Maddie saves Zoe by crashing the dude's unwanted alone time with Zoe. I like the book and how it views true friendship, but the other issues are highly controversial and it fails to show any high moral values even by my standards. Overall the book wasn't all that fantabulous so it gets a 4 out of 10. The book was pretty awful, but you might never know whether you like it unless you try, but personally I don't recommend this good as a book read for anyone!

The Year Of Secret Assignments!!!!!!!!!!


This book is my favorite. It is a young adult fiction about 3 high school girls who get 3 boy pen pals from a mandatory pen-pal program in their school,that was meant to bring peace between the rival schools of Ashbury High and Brookfield High. At first the 3 girls aren't really happy about their assignment,but eventually become really really tight with the boys. Except for Cassie who's pen-pal had used a fake name and made up everything he had told her. Cassie already had a fragile heart from her father's death a year before, but that didn't stop "Matthew Dunlop" (her pen-pal) from messing with her. In the end one of the girls (Lydia) becomes one of the Brookfield boy's girlfriend and Cassie gets her justice. Much more happened, but I don't want to spoil the book for anyone who wants to read it. Overall this book gets an 8 out of 10!!!
