Mocking jay
by Suzanne Collins
This is the third and final book of the hunger games trilogy. In this book, Katniss has to face all sorts of challenges, avoiding futuristic wild animals, and not being seen by president snow. There are many traps, that she has to work together with her friends to avoid. My favorite part of this book is when Katniss is running through some pipes, and an animal is chasing them. The Capitol has brainwashed one of katniss's friends to hate her. she has to go find them, and do something to get them back to normal. Katniss says throughout  the book "They have hijacked my friend." I think this book has the most action of the three books. This book is also a bit violent, like the other two, so I would recommend it to anyone that could handle the first two. I really enjoyed this book, and the entire series, and this is a really good conclusion to it.

The List

The List By:Siobhan Vivian 
           Siobhan Vivian's The List is a teenage book that is really good. This book was about how in this High School there is a thing called the list. It has each grades ugliest and prettiest girls. The ones who are not on the list are forgotten. The girls who are the prettiest are remembered and the ugliest are humiliated.
        This book is a romantic, funny kind of a story. I like the style the author is trying to give. This book is pretty unique from all the books I have read because it's someone's perspective of high school.I think that the book is trying to say not to judge people if their ugly or pretty. I think it means to see them for their personality. My favorite quote in the book was "Sometimes when you get something new, you think it has the power to change absolutely everything about you.
         I really liked this book. I would recommend it to teenage girls. I liked the book because it was different from everything I have ever read. I didn't love how some parts had bad words, but other than that it was one of my favorite books. If you like a sort of reality and romance then you will really enjoy it.

I'm reading the book Peter and the Starcatchers by Dave Barry! It is basically a story of how Peter and the lost boys actually get to Never Land, and their journey on their way.  I am actually not all the way finished with it... but it is really great so far! In the book Peter and the boys are orphans and are shipped off onto a boat, not knowing why or where they are going. They boys climb aboard the ship and are banned to the basement of the ship where they are fed boiled rats, fish and random chunks.The conflict starts from there, and so you'll have to read it because it is probably the coolest thing ever. I can make a lot of connection to this book because i live in a house full of little brothers, so i know how it feels to be the leader of a pack. Black Stache: "Now, about that Wasp..." Stache said as he was planning his attack on the Wasp ship. Read the book!
