Text to Text-The Fault in Our Stars

I am reading The Fault in Our Stars by John Green. This book is about two teenagers with cancer fall in love and go places together to live life to their fullest ability, while still accepting the fact that they are dying, in the end something is lost. What do you think this is? Hazel and Augustus are together and in love, but their lives are much different than our lives, they both have cancer. They meet at a support group and immediately fall in love. Hazel and Augustus both read and "their book" is An Imperial Infliction. They go to 
Amsterdam together and meet the author of their book and he turns out to be very rude. When they get back something is lost and is very sad.  
My book is a book that has a lot to do with life and you can learn many lessons from reading it. The book reminds me of Nicholas Sparks books not because the romance in both books but because its about life and what goes on in life and both authors can help you relate so well to things from reading their books. Also it reminds me of Paper Towns the movie because they both are romantic in a way and appeal to the teens. The character Hazel in The Fault in Our Stars reminds me of Margo from Paper Towns because they both are very different than any other girl I've read about or known in my life, the way they talk and look at like is almost more sophisticated than anyone I know. 
While reading about Augustus and Hazel in Amsterdam I was wondering how long they would last together and how long their lives will last. I felt bad for them when their favorite author, Peter Van Houten, turned out to be a huge jerk. I was not expecting that at all, he sounded so amazing in the beginning of the book how Hazel described him. I love the way the author of this book showed the love that Hazel and Augustus have for each other and how he used certain words, words that sound sophisticated and gives a  mood to the whole book and the character Hazel. If I was Hazel in the situation shes in at the end of the book I would cry a lot and spend all of my time with the person in need. I love this book so much and one hundred percent recommend it.

Text to Text- The Maze Runner

          I am reading  The Maze Runner by James Dashner.  This story is about a boy named Thomas who was brainwashed and taken to a place called the Glades. Thomas was very curious on running in the maze inside the Glades. When he had the chance, Thomas went into the maze and became a runner. Thomas is starting to put together clues and messages he has found to why he went to the glades in the first place. He is now trying to decode a message that has been created, so he can stop the danger. Thomas and the other runners need to defeat the grievers, and what is happening to their world.           The scene where the ferocious creatures (grievers) come and are trying to break their way into the map room, reminds me of the book The Hunger Games . That specific scene reminds me of  The Hunger Games  because when the other creatures (mutts) come out from the forest, the characters were prepared as well, but struggled to...

Text to Text- The Girl Who Drank the Moon

         If you recall, I was reading The Girl Who Drank the Moon by Kelly Barnhill. Much has happened in the story since I last posted. The witch (Xan) calls the baby Luna and over the years Luna grows very powerful, but she doesn't know what she's doing. At about the age of five Xan has to put a spell on Luna to capture her magic and when Luna turns 13 her magic will come out. Unfortunately that means Xan will die. When it's close to Luna's birthday Xan leaves because she has to get the baby from the circle to take to the free cities. Luna goes out to look for her grandmother and ends up having an interesting adventure.          This book reminds me of the book Sleeping Beauty because both main characters has a spell cast on them. Luna's spell causes her to loose her magic until she turns 13 and Sleeping Beauty's spell cause her to sleep for a long time. There are also many other connections, such as, both stories have evil witches ...

Text to Self- The Maze Runner

           I am reading The Maze Runner by James Dashner. This book's genre is post-apocalyptic. This book is about a teen named Thomas who came to this mysterious place called the Glades. He does not know where and why he is there. Thomas does not also know anything about his life anymore; he is completely clueless. Now that Thomas has been at the Glades for a while, he now knows there is a large maze with bad things inside. Thomas is not allowed to go inside the maze. However, Thomas said he wants to participate in being a runner.            The character Thomas reminds me of one of my friends because she is very outgoing. Therefore, Thomas is outgoing because he wants to be a runner in the maze.  Thomas also reminds me of myself because I am always very cautious of my actions in various situations. For example, when Thomas was very alert about some sort of "abyss", he did not take the risk of getting any closer. Inste...
