Hey guys(: Check out the "Review Paige" for my new spoiler-free review for The Night Circus by Erin Morgenstern.
"Room" by Emma Donoghue Summary: To five-year-old Jack, Room is the entire world. It is where he was born and grew up; it's where he lives with his Ma as they learn and read and eat and sleep and play. At night, his Ma shuts him safely in the wardrobe, where he is meant to be asleep when Old Nick visits. Room is home to Jack, but to Ma, it is the prison where Old Nick has held her captive for seven years. Through determination, ingenuity, and fierce motherly love, Ma has created a life for Jack. But she knows it's not enough...not for her or for him. She devises a bold escape plan, one that relies on her young son's bravery and a lot of luck. What she does not realize is just how unprepared she is for the plan to actually work. Told entirely in the language of the energetic, pragmatic five-year-old Jack, ROOM is a celebration of resilience and the limitless bond between parent and child, a brilliantly executed novel about what it means to journey from one world to another. "If I Stay" by Gayle Forman Summary: Mia had everything: a loving family, a gorgeous, adoring boyfriend, and a bright future full of music and full of choices. Then, in an instant, almost all of that is taken from her. Caught between life and death, between a happy past and an unknowable future. Mia spends one critical day contemplating the only decision she'll ever make. Simultaneously tragic and hopeful, this is a romantic, riveting, and ultimately uplifting story about memory, music, living, dying, loving. Yeah, I know, I know. It has been a while. I apologize for my long absence, I have no desire to come up with lame excuses as to why I haven't been active on this website as of late. But now, I plan on being more active. Starting with the review I just posted on the "Review Paige". So head on over there to check out my review on "Fangirl" by Rainbow Rowell. |
