One Piece Manga -

I recommend reading the manga after catching up with the current anime but regardless it’s a good (and very long) read, without spoiling much it follows the journey of a pirate, Luffy who obtains an ancient power from the devil fruit “gomu-gomu no mi” giving him the properties of rubber. This alongside many other mysteries changes and shapes his path in the large world of consisting of many islands. After catching up with the anime (in episodes) it’s very exciting to read the next upcoming events Luffy faces including the life given to him from page to animation.

This is a diary about a kid who faces a series of experiences and challenges and you get to see the world through his eyes. I think people will like it cause it is similar to dear martin and it is very funny.

**** JANUARY 5TH UPDATE *****
Hard Luck was alright, it was a bit funny, but I found it to be a lot like The Ugly Truth, which is book 5. You see how Greg and Rowley aren't friends (again), there's a family reunion under way, and there's a sub plot of an older character. To top it off, it ends a similar way to book 5, with Greg and Rowley being friends, especially while Greg is friendless, and Rowley finds out that he is being "used" for something in the end. But besides the similarities, I found the book to be a pleasant read. It tickled my funny bone, and it had a happy ending.

I recommend this book because although it's simple, it shows a good lesson for the reader. I've also loved this author and have read her books since elementary school

This is a true story about the author in her 5th-grade year and how she had a stomach illness, anxiety, and panic attacks. Throughout the story, she has to learn how to cope with them while being cautious with her everyday life while the symptoms got worse. She got a therapist to try and talk about her symptoms and help her understand them.

While dealing with all of that, she had to deal with the drama of her friends too. All the kids in her grade started changing and some of her main friends acted differently too. This girl named Michelle bullied Raina and were arguing and fought the whole book but in the end, they made up and talked it through.

I really enjoyed this novel because many people my age can relate to it. Why we broke up is a coming up novel written by author Daniel Handler. This story talks about Min and Al who've been best friends for years that have been torn apart during Min's short five week relationship with Ed. I would recommend this book not only because peers my age can relate to it but its based on real life situations.

I really loved this book. Chloe is a very interesting character, and watching her learn and grow is really satisfying. Shara was very well written, and I liked the way we learned more about her and her motivations as the story progressed. Rory and Smith were cute as well, but my favorite part of the story was seeing Shara’s plan unfold, and how the characters reacted to it. The romance was cute, and watching as Chloe’s feelings about Shara changed from hatred to love, and her having to accept it, was amazing. This book is crazy, none of the characters make rational decisions, the issues would be solved from a single conversation, and I loved every second of it.

Band of Brothers is a non-fiction war novel about “Easy” (E) company of the 101st airborne division.  This division was (and still is) a special forces unit that served in World War II.  Some of the men were training for this just to get their extra $50, others were in this company because they could not trust the drafted soldiers.  They were tasked to jump at multiple battles throughout the 6 year period.  Starting at Toccoa, the company trained for months on end.  Throughout the novel, the company went from refusing to jump, to jumping all the way in Germany during D-Day and other battles like the Bulge.

This book is one of the greatest I’ve ever read.  It truly dives deep into the minds of the soldiers during the war.  After interviewing them, Ambrose had an understanding of what happened and where.  It’s amazing how much detail there is of something that took place so long ago.

BOMB is a non-fiction novel that describes the race to build the atomic bomb.  As the story carries on, the intensity of the novel increases as you are brought to many countries to see different perspectives on the most crucial race in human history.  But not only are the best scientists trying to build this bomb of mass destruction…the best spies are also trying to steal it.  They are everywhere, trying to gain information for the other side.  Will the Americans, partnered with the British and the USSR beat the Germans in a race to build the atomic bomb, or will it blow up in their face?

This is an amazing book that will have you dying to know what will happen next.  Just when something seems solved, more issues pop up, all tying into the thrilling ending.  I would recommend this novel to anyone who enjoys a fast paced and heart pounding story.  There is so much detail and the wording and use of literary devices is excellent.

In his novel, Adib Khorram seeks to raise awareness about topics from understanding depression in teens to the humanity of Iranians, as well as emphasizes the importance of empathy and inclusion. Khorram’s lucid writing allows  readers to immerse themselves in the life of an incredibly compelling and kind-hearted, yet painfully misunderstood protagonist. I heavily related to this book, and, although its not one of my favorites, I value the new perspectives and insights I've gained from it.

This book covers age realistic situations and portrayed the main character as very patient but also very troubled. Main character, Melinda, tells her story about not being able to speak about what happened to her and wishing she was able to. It takes place the summer after eighth grade; her and her best friend decide to go to a party, not knowing that doing so would change her life. While at this party she meets a boy whom she thinks is the one, but tragically rapes her. In time Melinda develops post traumatic stress disorder, or known as PTSD. She then eventually calls the cop which ends the party creating tension between her friend group once school starts up again.
No longer feeling safe in the same environment as Evan, she creates a little safe haven out of the janitor's closet. This place becomes the place where she’s able to express herself, comfort herself, and even take naps. Her teacher assigns an assignment of drawing a tree, and through bringing his tree to life, Melinda makes friendships, builds up the courage to be free, and soon enough completes her mission on telling her story.

“Me Moth” by Amber McBride is a fantasy novel about a girl named Moth and her whole family dies in a car crash. She was the only one that survived and after she recovered she had a lot of guilt and a scar on her face that reminded her everyday about it. She doesn't know how to deal with her trauma and her aunt isn't helping her get the proper care she needs. While she is at school she meets this boy named Sani who also has his own issues. So Moth and Sani decide to go on a summer road trip together and get their minds off all the bad things that have happened to them.

I really enjoyed this book. It was very interesting to me.  I definitely would recommend this book to everyone. I love how Sani and Moth were able to connect so well and sort of heal each other of their wounds. I loved watching their relationship grow and how they grew together over just a few short weeks.

I recommend this book because Dear Justyce has taught me about how poverty, violence, and injustice can strongly impact the life choices that people make in order to get by. Readers also learn about police brutality, the juvenile system, and racial bias. Reading this book has made me more aware about the problems in our world and how it’s important to address them because the uneventful things that happened to Quan in this book happen to kids in reality. This book will teach readers why it’s important to let others know that they are valued and how a little help and support can go a long way.

This story always left me at the edge of my seat and guessing what would happen on the next page. The writing style of the author was amazing and the pacing kept me intrigued and interested in the plot throughout the whole book.

You’ll Be The Death Of Me by Karen M. McManus is a mystery/thriller that was published in 2021. The story is told from the different perspectives of three former best friends, Ivy, Cal and Mateo. The former friends had been best friends in middle school after being acquainted on what they called, “the best day ever.” The book takes place in a high school outside of Boston where coincidently Ivy, Cal and Mateo meet up again and decide to recreate their “best day ever” which starts with ditching their school day without telling anyone. What was thought to be "the best day ever" slowly turns into the worst day of their lives after a turn of events.

Overall I really recommend this book to anyone who enjoys murder mysteries and thrillers. The author wrote this book really well and I was kept interested and on edge during the entire book. I never got bored of reading this book and I enjoyed reading it. I also recommend this book because it is filled with mysteries and I loved the different perspectives of each character that the book gave. It was overall a really good book.

The story starts off with a highschool student named Clay Jensen, who receives a package of audiotapes. Voicing these tapes is his fellow classmate Hannah baker, who commited suicide. There are 7 cassette tapes. Each chapter is a side of one tape, with a culprit who eventually led her to her life ending. This story is an upsetting storyline of a girl who faces unfaithful behaviors of the people from her high school and so called her “friends.”

This book can inform people to help others and can motivate the struggling to open up and receive help. It covers so many issues people go through everyday. I recommend this book to tennagers especially since I feel as if they can relate the most. Many of the problems can relate to or be similar to what people in highschool experience everyday because of other students like Hannah Baker did or just stress in general.

Charlie a teen boy growing up with his family by his side has came out to his parents as gay. However not everybody can be so accepting. Dealing with homophobia and whispers from other boys at his school has really been rough on him. Although that's when he meets Nick, a well known year 11 who's the star of their school's rugby team. Everyone knew that all the rugby players had a big ego and tough attitude so Charlie's friends didn’t want him to associate with that crowd.

Throughout the novel Charlie and Nick became close friends, from a party invite from the rich kid at school Harry. The two decided to go. Charlie's friends didn't quite accept that idea. Knowing how Harry will give Charlie trouble hence him always being with Nick. Charlie's friends were very on edge about him hanging out with Nick. With Charlie's crush on him they think it's going to end badly by getting rejected all because NIck is the “Straight rugby lad”. There's a lot of sentimental parts of this book that I enjoy and can relate with, as this series can relate a lot to teens nowadays.

Born a crime is a beautiful memoir written by the South African comedian Trevor Noah. He talks about how his parents were an illegal couple and his existence was simply not allowed. He had a Swiss father and an African mother in a time when interracisal relationships were strictly forbidden. He goes into depths about his childhood and growing up as an unlawful, troublemaking kid during the oppressive apartheid regime. He was brought up by a rebellious and strong woman who guided him and supported him during his childhood. His mother is an inspiring woman who supported Trevor in any way she could. Even in her older age she still worked and supported Trevor in any way she could.

He goes into detail about what it was like living under apartheid and how it affected his family. From not being able to have a stable supply of money to his abusive stepfather. He worked as a mechanic and used his ability to speak 2 languages to his benefit communicating with customers. He uses other skills to get help his family provides and survive when all odds are against them.  Apartheid is the main theme of this book with Trevor Noah showing how it really effected everyone inside it. He gives an inside view on one of the most oppressive racial ideologies in history.

The book does however portray very well how the Beat movement during that time impacted the people involved, but the endless rambling on and on and repeating himself, associating with horrible people etc. was just too annoying for me. ...more

That being said - I read it because I took a class in Beat art and literature, so I learned a lot from the book too. It has it good parts and its bad, and it also involves a severely narcissistic character which was interesting to read about. But several of my peers have tried to read it and after 30% shelved it for good - but seeing as the book basically is based off Jack Kerouacs notes during his travels it's a challenging read, as the writing style is about the stream of consciousness, wich can be hard to follow. I had to go back several pages whenever I picked it up again just to remember the context.(less)

The Princess Saves Herself In This One by Amanda Lovelace

# data[].attributes.attachment_link.readable_text
"I believe that each of us carries a bit of inner brightness, something entirely unique and individual. A flame that's worth protecting. When we are able to recognize our own light, we become empowered to use it. When we learn to foster what's unique in the people around us, we become better able to build compassionate communities and make meaningful change."

"I've progressed only slowly to where I am today. If you are a young person reading this, please remember to be patient with yourself. You are at the beginning of a long and interesting journey, one that will not always be comfortable. You will spend years gathering data about who you are and how you operate and only slowly will you find your way towards more certainty and a stronger sense of self. Only gradually will you begin to discover and use your light!"

A book that I return to again and again when I just want to laugh. If you've wondered about the answer to the universe, wanted to know the smartest species on our planet, and just enjoy zaniness all around, you should definitely read all of the books in this series!

The Hobbit is a fantastic book for people who like to read about massive worlds filled with magic and danger. It's an excellent introduction to the world of J.R.R. Tolkien and is perfect for plane rides or short road trips. I recommend this book to anyone wishing to travel the world without leaving their abode.

The Secret Garden is an amazing novel by Frances Hodgson Burnett, that was first published in book form in 1911. This book tells the story of Mary Lennox. She is a selfish and disagreeable 10-year-old girl who has been spoiled by her servants and neglected by her unloving parents in India. When a cholera epidemic kills her parents and the servants, she is sent to live at her widowed uncle, Archibald Craven, Yorkshire estate, Misselthwaite Manor. When Martha, the chambermaid, mentions the late Mrs. Craven’s walled garden, which was locked 10 years earlier by the uncle upon his wife’s death, Mary is determined to find it.

While this book is quite long and can seem cumbersome, It reads quite quickly. The characters pull you in from page one. The plot demands that you read just one more page. It's masterfully written, the worldbuilding is detailed and unique- often fantasy worlds feel as if they're just a rip-off of the Lord of the Rings, but we get no such feeling here.

Set in a magical world inspired by Asian cultures, Bone shard daughter grips you from the beginning with multiple compelling characters, including Lin, the emperor's daughter, and smuggler named Jovis, trying to find his lost wife- Phalue, the daughter of an island governor and her love Ranami, and Sand- a mysterious girl from a strange island. The magic system is compelling, the characters are diverse and gripping, and it's wonderfully original. I give it 5 out of 5 stars.
