The Fault in Our Stars



The Fault in our Stars
By John Green
This book really gets you in touch with your feelings. It is about a girl who has cancer, she goes to a cancer support group one day and meets the love of her life. This is all new for the girl, she has never experienced these feelings. You then go on a journey with the girl as her life changes completely.
John Greene has done an amazing job writing this book. He makes you feel as though you know the characters personally and they have been your best friends for years.
I loved this book, as it is is one of those books you never want to put down. I would recommend this book to anyone that wants a decent book about real life and love. If you do , then this is the book for you. Recommended for girls especially - But be warned this book will make you cry!

It shows you how to draw a mutant dog. I call it Hell hound which is hard but good. I recommend it for people who like to draw and not scare easily.

My Story. Wartime Princess
By Valerie Wilding
If you like history then you will probably like all “my Story Books. They are written as a diary. This one I really enjoyed because it is about Queen Elizabeth and her sister princess Margaret Rose. It is set in the Second World War. Most of it is about Princess Elizabeth’s blossoming romance with Prince Philip.

Goodbye Chunky Rice
By Craig Thompson
This book is an awesome book and I would recommend this book to people that like comics. It is about these weird looking liens riding on motorbikes. It has got a lot of pictures ut not much wordsm so it’s mainly a picture book, but a good book. It is the second best book I have ever read.
I hope that now you have seen my review , that you would one day get it off the shelf and read it. It is a good book, believe me, I loved it.
