Shock

I just thought of a book I've recently read. It's called shock. Two college girls, Joanna and Deborah, needed money, so they donated eggs at a small infertility clinic near their town. After that they leave the country for a year. When they come back a year later the real story starts. Joanna wants to find out what happened to her eggs, so the girls take fake names and start working at the clinic. But what they find their is beyond shocking. The clinic is doing things like cloning, and worse. Suddenly the girls discover that they may be in more trouble than they thought. Will they be able to escape? To find out, read Shock by Robin Cook.

No Reading

I'm sorry, but I haven't been reading a lot lately, because I have a lot of homework to do. I am working on a big project, so I have not had a lot of time to sit down and read. An suggestions for books I could read in case I have any spare time (it's very unlikely)?

The Hunger Games

I don't know if I've written about these books, but now I will. This is a trilogy of books about Katniss Everdeen, a girl who lives in the future. In the future there are 12 districts and a capitol. These are all like very big cities. Once they tried to rebel, but the Government, or Capitol, won. Since then the people have been practically tortured by the CApitol. They work like slaves, and there is barely enough food to go around. At the Capitol, however, everyone lives like kings.

The Capitol shows their power and superiority by having what is called the Hunger Games, which is an event where two people ( a boy and a girl ages 11-18) are chosen from each district to battle to the death in a complicated arena. The arena is huge and tricky, usually a new habitat every year.

When Katniss' little sister is chosen to battle and most probably die, Katniss steps up to take her place. She and the boy (called Peeta Mellark) then go through the complicated first steps of being in the Hunger Games. They are dressed up and put on TV, and everyone in the districts are forced to watch. Then they train to an inch of their lives. Finally, they are put in the arena.

This story has twists and turns you would never expect. I liked it very much. If you want to find out what happens in the arena, or just love to read exciting thrillers, read The Hunger Games, by Suzanne Collins.

Manga

I am obsessed with manga drawing. I cant stop! A good manga book is Manga Mania by Christopher Hart. There are a lot of drawings and it explains manga, too. I really recommend it.

Blank

I'm drawing a blank here. I don't know what book to type about. If you have any suggestions, comment me.

The Insomniac Experiment

The Insomniac Experiment is an experiment I (Roxy) did, where I stayed awake from noon, Sat. Apr. 10, 2010, through noon, Sun. Apr. 11, 2010. Actually, I'm still doing it. I have twenty minutes left. So, anything I write from this point on, until I have had a good nap, may or may not be true. If you want to follow me on my experiment, visit http://ebfis.blogspot.com This is my blog. Have fun!

Twilight Haters

A lot of people are Twilight haters. We say, that's their opinion. If they tell you that, it's okay. Just don't hate people who like Twilight just because you don't. And don't give out your opinion when it isn't needed. But, then again, my blog is basically a list of our opinions, so we can't say much. But don't offend people because of their opinions, and that goes to all the people who love Twilight, too. And us? We think Twilight is a good book, but it's not the best in the world. And we don't offend people with our opinions, so neither should you.

Books

Some great books I have read recently are: Where Nina Lies, The Hunger Games, Twilight, Marked, m or f?, and many more. Check these out!
