The Lonely Hearts Club

The Lonely Hearts Club is a fun and quick little read that's great for the beach. This is a story about girls who decided to change the ways of love and swear it off completely for the rest of high school. Boys make you act stupid, love sick, they make you forget about your friends the people who care about you most, and then when you least expect it, they throw you out like a half eaten burger. Penny Lane has been heartbroken one time too many, and shes done with the heart ache. Joined by her best friend she creates a club that values chicks over... you know the deal. But then, there's a guy. Liking him threatens to destroy the club and all they have worked for, worse... it could destroy her heart.
"I love books. I like that 

moment when you open one 

and sink into it. You can 

escape from the world, 

into a story that's way 

more interesting then yours 

will ever be."

else is already taken"

when you can't fall asleep 

because reality is finally 

better than your dreams"

The Cove, please help now


Okayy...... so I know this has nothing to do with books but I think it is something that all of us should know about. The Cove is a documentary about dophin slaughter in Taiji, Japan. This won best documentary at the Oscars and was an inspirational story (even Hayden Panettiere took part in exposing the Japanese fishermen). I absolutely recommend it, and if you do not have the time to watch the movie please help by signing the petition that will be send to President Obama and Vice President Biden. It will only take a few minutes of your time, trust me its worth it... otherwise I wouldn't be up at 1:30 am posting this. Thank you guys for your support:)

"Forgetting isn't enough

you can paddle away

from the memoires and

think they are gone.

But they will keep 

floating back, again and

again and again. They

circle you, like sharks.

Until, unless, something,

someone? Can do more

than just cover the 

wound" - Sara Zarr

Two Way Street

Two Way Street is exciting, fast and grabs your attention. Once you pick this book up you better cancel your plans for the night because you are going to want to read all. night. long.

Courtney and Jordan are headed on a road trip, only problem is that the recently broke up. Jordan dumped her for some myspace girl and Courtney is heart broken, but she will not give him the satisfaction of knowing that. Throughout the book we see glimpses of the present and the past. We also hear the story from both Jordan and Courtney's point of view. But beware, everything is not as simple as it seems, turns out that somebody has been keeping secrets.

"No matter how much you tell yourself your over someone, your heart knows the truth" -Two Way Street

The Last Song

Sorry I haven't posted any books in a while. I've been busy spending all my free time reading The Last Song by Nicholas Sparks. This book is as real as it gets, there is no fairy tale ending, no lies about love, sincere and heartfelt life is unfair. If your hoping for chick flick type of book this isn't it.

The Last Song is about a misunderstood seventeen year old New Yorker Ronnie. Shes been in trouble and hasn't always made the right choices, nobody seems to understand her. He parents split up three years ago and she has not talked to her father since. When her mom ships her off to stay with him by the beach for the summer she is anything but happy. Then she finds Will. He's not the type of boy who she sees herself with, but he understands her. The Last Song is summer full of love, a summer full of lies, a summer of surprises, happiness and disappointment but most of all its a summer of change. Throughout the summer Ronnie learns about herself and who she wants to be, she grows in ways she never thought she would. Nicholas Spark is a beautiful writer and knows how to weave your emotions into the feelings of each character. Your heart will break and rip and tear into shreds and you will suffer as though the pain was specifically inflicted on you. This is really a story you won't want to forget.
