1 March Slice of Life Challenge - Crossed Toes

The sound of flapping wings fills our ears. We walk down the freshly damp pathway as 1,000 pairs of wings circle our heads. We places our feet carefully, looking out for the ones that land on the gravel. All different colors, shapes, and sizes, and they are all different in their own ways. The lush and artificial rain forest is their habitat, with many trees, leaves, steams, turtles, rocks, gravel, people, and flowers to land on and live off of. It is like a parade with a special choreographed dance, each with their own specific steps. Even though it is not the wild, it is still a incredible unique experience. 

The Wild Trees

My Book Choosing Process

When choosing a book I normally choose it by people recommending it and if I am interested in what it is about. If many people have read it and enjoyed it, then I will want to try reading it. Also if the book is not about something that I am interested in reading, I not going to be interested half way through the book. My book choosing process has stayed mostly the same since the beginning of the year.

Favorite Book

My favorite book that I have read this year is I am Malala written by Christina Lamb and Malala Yousafzai. Even though this book is non-fiction, it is really interesting and incredibly written

The Wild trees

Over Winter Collective I read the fiction book,The Wild Trees written by Richard Preston. This book is about the redwood trees on California's coast. They are over thirty-five stories high and a group of people decides to climb the trees at great risk. This book has a lot of suspense and adventure, making it interesting and intriguing all the way throughout. I thought that this book had a totally different plot then any book I have read before and it was written in a very unique way. Overall I think that this book was incredible and I would definitely recommend it.

Next Books:

Beautiful Creatures
Outliers
Impulse
The Martian

Out of the Easy

I read Out of the Easy written by Ruta Sepetys. This book is fiction and takes place in the 1950s. Josie and her mother move to New Orleans and her mother becomes a prostitute. Josie goes to work at a book store where she deals with being a prostitutes daughter Suddenly there is a murder and Josie is caught in the middle of it, torn on the decisions that she is making. This book has a lot of warnings because of some of the things mentioned in the book. I thought that this book had a really interesting plot and it made me want to keep reading it all the way through the book. Overall I would definitely recommend this book, it is really well written.

Girls Acting Catty

January 30, 2015

This week I read the fiction book Girls Acting Catty written by Leslie Margolis. I have seen a few people read this book and not like it, however I wanted to see what I thought of the book. This book is about a girl named Annabelle who has dealt with the boys, but now she has to deal with the popular group at school, and nothing seems to be working. The book is about how she deals with the populars. I also did not really like this book, it was not very interesting, and I got bored quickly, however I think that if you have not read it, I would want to know your opinion on the book.
