The Mother Daughter Book Club

Book 1
The book clubis about to get
a makeover....
Even if Megan would rather be at the mall, Cassidy is late for hockey practice, Emma's already read every book in existence, and Jess is missing her mother too much to care, the new book club is scheduled to meet every month.
But what begins as a mom-imposed ritual of reading Little Women soon helps four unlikely friends navigate the drama of middle school. From stolen journals, to secret crushes, to a fashion-fiasco first dance, the girls are up to their Wellie boots in drama. They can't help but wonder: What would Jo March do?
Acclaimed author Heather Vogel Frederick will girls everywhere in a novel about the fabulousness of fiction, family, and friendship.

BOOK 2
This year the mothers have a big surprise in store for Emma, Jess, Cassidy, and Megan: They've invited snooty Becca Chadwick and her mother to join the book club!

But there are bigger problems when Jess finds out that her family may have to give up Half Moon Farm. In a year filled with skating parties, a disastrous mother-daughter camping trip, and a high-stakes fashion show, the girls realize that it's only through working together -- Becca included -- that they can save Half Moon Farm.

Acclaimed author Heather Vogel Frederick captures the magic of friendship and the scrapes along the way in this sequel to The Mother-Daughter Book Club, which will enchant daughters and mothers alike.

Book 3
Jess has received an anonymous scholarship to a prestigious boarding school, but that means leaving home. And ontop of all the girls homework, they are required to write letters to a pen pal! One more big shock... Mrs. Sloane-Kinkaid (Cassidys mother) is having a baby. Cassidy is not happy about this at ALL. So ontop of letters to a pen pal, she has to write letters to the baby! And, Jess has to deal with some snooty roommate, Savannah. She is really mean, just like Becca Chadwick used to be. Can this year get any worse???

I think you should read these books. Guys, its more of a girlish book. But sure, go ahead, read it.

Secret Series

HEEEY!!! Jellybeans here. I just finished reading the second book of the Secret Series, by Pseudonymous Bosch. CRAZY GOOD BOOK!!!! I have not yet read the third book. BUT I SHALL!!!!! 

The second book, If you're Reading this, It's too late, was a phenomenal book. It was just as exciting as the first book. Here in the sequel, there are different ideas, like a funny thing made inside of horse waste (a polite way to say POOP) that is rather slight (a polite way of saying SHORT) and has vast zest (a polite way to say HUGE APPETITE) for food. This unusual (a polite way of saying STRANGE AND WEIRD) creature is called a homunculus. I know, funny word, right?!?! Well anyway, it is rather aged, ( a polite way of saying OLD) and can only be summoned by this thing, a Sound Prism. YEP!!!!
ADIOS PEOPLE.

A Song About ... Me

    The Song of the Jellicles

    Jellicle Cats come out to-night
    Jellicle Cats come one come all:
    The Jellicle Moon is shining bright -
    Jellicles come to the Jellicle Ball.

    Jellicle Cats are black and white,
    Jellicle Cats are rather small;
    Jellicle Cats are merry and bright,
    And pleasant to hear when they caterwaul.
    Jellicle Cats have cheerful faces,
    Jellicle Cats have bright black eyes;
    They like to practise their airs and graces
    And wait for the Jellicle Moon to rise.

    Jellicle Cats develop slowly,
    Jellicle Cats are not too big;
    Jellicle Cats are roly-poly,
    They know how to dance a gavotte and a jig.
    Until the Jellicle Moon appears
    They make their toilette and take their repose:
    Jellicle Cats wash behind their ears,
    Jellicle dry between their toes.

    Jellicle Cats are white and black,
    Jellicle Cats are of moderate size;
    Jellicle Cats jump like a jumping-jack,
    Jellicle Cats have moonlit eyes.
    They're quitet enough in the morning hours,
    They're quitet enough in the afternoon,
    Reserving their terpsichorean powers
    To dance by the light of the Jellicle Moon.

    Jellicle Cats are black and white,
    Jellicle Cats (as I said) are small;
    If it happends to be a stormy night
    They will practice a caper or two in the hall.
    If it happens the sun is shining bright
    You would say they had nothing to do at all:
    They are resting and saving themselves to be right
    For the Jellicle Moon and the Jellicle Ball.

Perfectly Dateless


Daisy Crispin has 242 days to find the right date for the prom. Just one not so little problem--her parents won't let her date or even talk to a guy on the phone. Oh, and she's totally invisible at school, has to wear lame homemade clothes, and has absolutely no social skills. Okay, so maybe there's more than one problem. Can she talk her parents into letting her go to the prom? Or will they succeed at their obvious attempt to completely ruin her life? With hilarious and truthful writing, Kristin Billerbeck uncovers the small--and large--mortifications that teen girls encounter. Readers will fall in love with Daisy's sharp wit and resourcefulness as she navigates the world of boys, fashion, family, and friendship. (less)


This was a pretty good book, but at some points a little boring. But I think I give it 4 stars.
ADIOS AMERICA!!!!!!

Gimme a call

Devi's life isn't turning out at all like she wanted. She wasted the past three years going out with Bryan—cute, adorable, break-your-heart Bryan. Devi let her friendships fade, blew off studying, didn't join any clubs . . . and now that Bryan has broken up with her, she has nothing left.
Not even her stupid cell phone—Devi dropped it in the stupid mall fountain. And when she tries to call her voicemail, someone else picks up. Herself. At age fourteen, three years ago!
Once Devi gets over the shock—and convinces her 14 year old self that she is not some weird stalker person—she realizes that she's been given something great. She can tell herself all the right things to do . . . because she's already done all the wrong ones! Who better to take advice from than your future self?
Except . . .  what if you get everything you think you want, and that just changes everything?

People who read Sarah Mlynowski's Magic in Manhattan series will love this book. It is so funny and a great thing to read!

5 out of 5 stars.

Something

Don't let people tell you that you are stupid. Don't let them push you around. Don't care about what other people think. All that matters is that you like what you think of yourself. 
People have not been to nice to me 


sometimes, but I just tell them off and 


forget them. I don't care! I love myself how I am. 
And another thing........ Try to realize who your real friends are.One of my "friends" was really nice to me this whole school year. Then suddenly on Email, she turned against me and started saying mean things, like that I am really annoying and that I need to shut up. I told her off, saying that she was only nice to me because she wanted me to help her in school. I know I was right. 
Just remember... know who your real friends are.

come ON!!!

READ A BOOK
IT WILL MAKE YOU SMARTER (I think)
Please?
=)
