the hunger games
Today I will be talking about one of the most amazing books out of its series and the book is called the Hunger games. This book is so awesome Icouldn't stop reading it; that's how awesome it is. The book is about the Hunger Games where there are two tributes from each of the districts. There were 13 but now there are only 12 because the top of thirteen got destroyed in a rebellion attack.
So there is this girl named Katness and a girl named prim. They are in the waiting hours of the reaping. there is this boy named Gale and in their district they have an electric fence. there is a spot on the fence where it broke and the fence is never on,so they slip through the fence so they can spend the a few hours hunting before the reaping begins. They meet in their normal spot so they know they are. They find the other and they spend the few hours before the reaping to see who has to compete in the hunger games.
They are getting ready to go the reaping with their nice dresses. They finally get to the reaping when she sees Gale smiling and saying you're not going in the games. You're one in a hundred. There comes this girl on a stage Effie Trinket and she is the reaping ball roller and a mentor for the girls and she rolls the big ball.The girls always come first she says.She picks the ball.She says the winner is prim,she just stared there in shock when Katniss found out she voluntered to take prim's place in the game.

Kingdom Hearts
Woah i finally get my password hahah........ I love the Book Kingdom Hearts.
its my LIFE.
its my LIFE.
Prolouge:
There are legends that state that Kingdom Hearts is a paradise that will bring prosperity to those who find it.
Another of those legends state that the place is nothing but a hellhole, designed to hold a great darkness at bay.
The last of the legends state that whoever finds Kingdom Hearts will only send the world into a state of nothingness.
Due to these legends, many people began searching for the door that could lead them to the place of legend.
The ruling power believed that Kingdom Hearts would send the whole world to a state of nothingness and, wanting to keep their truth about Kingdom Hearts as the only truth, began hunting down the people who sought it out.
By the time the ruling power could find them, it was too late as the people, mostly Keyblade masters and wielders, began fighting one another for the door.
The series of world wars disturbed the balance of light and darkness, causing the darkness to overtake the world and killing many people.The Creator saw this and instead of letting the darkness overtake the people, She allowed it to do this one thing: rend the people's hearts and souls from their bodies and allowing the two factors to live outside of their hosts' bodies as animal spirits called "Anima"
The Anima helped slowly bring the world out of darkness, but the ruling power, fearing another war, forbade the mention of "Pure Darkness, Pure Light and Kingdom Hearts."
this is the beginning video and the ending.

------- Emily: the thing that me & Jacque liked the most about the book was the stories or secrets behind about each character. Sora, Kairi, Riku, are the main characters of the book & game. ALLLLLL the disney character are in the book & game which make it exciting. (Micky Mouse, Donald, Goofy, etc.) Our favorite quote for the book is.. "a scattered dream is like a far off memory... a far off memory is like a scattered dream... i wanna line the peices up. yours and mine"

Kiss Me, Kill Me
Summary:
Kiss Me, Kill Me is about a high school girl named Scarlett who is suspected to be the murderer of Dan MacAndrew, a boy who shes had a crush on for who knows how long. She is invited to a party by her "frienemy" and is later out on the terrace with Dan. Dan died that night, and everybody pointed to Scarlett with no explanation. Scarlett is transferred to a different school where nobody knows about her secret, till Scarletts new friend reads newspapers found in her room, and then Scarlett realizes that it wasnt really her who murdered Dan, it was a set up.
Passage:
Scarlett pg. 95
I can barely cope with talking to a boy, let alone one who seems like he might be remotely interested in getting to know me. How can I even think about boys? The only one I ever kissed dropped dead while we had our tongues in each other's mouths. And I don't even know why he died. No one does. It doesn't look like we'll ever know what killed Dan. And that means that I might as well go into a nunnery. Because after what happened with Dan, how can I even think about kissing a boy ever again? What if the next boy I kiss drops dead, too?
Recommendation:
I would recommend this book to girls if you like mysteries and drama and boyssssss. Its really good and it keeps you wanting to read more. You should read it. ;)
