Emma is the story of a spirited but spoiled young lady who learns maturity through her mistakes and the guidance of her friend, Mr. Knightly. Emma Woodhouse believes herself to be an expert matchmaker, but is she as immune to love as she thinks? I really enjoyed reading this book as it is warm and at times, humerous. The characters are memorable and the plot of the story leaves you statisfied. It was not a book that I could "devour" as the reading was a little slow, but it was the perfect curl-up-with-hot-chocolate-rainy-day book.

I really enjoyed this book because I could easily relate to it as a person. She was wanting a big change in her life so she chnaged her diet drastically, helping her become a person she likes better. It makes me believe that someday I can have the strength to be able to overcome the obstacles I so desperately don't want. Like Cat, I want to grow into the person I dream of being, which takes hard work, ambition, and dedication.

The book I read is called The Hunger Games and the book is about Katniss Everdeen who volenteers as tribute over her sister in the annual Hunger Games, a fight to death on live tv. There are 24 tributes 1 boy and 1 girl from each district. I liked this book because it was a fast jarring of action and suspense and is one of my favorite books to read.

Dear Bully is a non-fiction book that 70 authors put together with the help of Megan Kelly Hall and Carrie Jones. Each one of the authors shares stories of their childhood where they have been bullied, seen others be bullied, or bully others. They shed some well deserved light on bullying and some even offer ideas to help reduce bullying. I thought the book was really well written and would highly recommend reading it.

Why I did like this story is because of all the neat and surprising highlighted events. Like when Nya has found out what she can do with her power. How she meets a new friend and heals his family. And saves her sister from the clutches of evil. But that's all I can say or I'll ruin the whole book. Thanks for reading this!
