“This is the part where you laugh.” I didn’t think I wouldn’t laugh


By christopher O.

They say that tragedy and comedy are two sides of the same coin. Well this book makes you look at both sides at the same time. There has never been a book like this that kept me on the seat of depressed and interested at the same time. This book is very comparable to real life and the whole "Shit happens" feel that comes with it.

"Leviathan" and "Behemoth" by Scott Westerfeld


By Christian F. 

The two books was amazing. I had no real complaints for it at all. The theme of it being a sorta steam punk WWI was spot on. The art was well done and fit the era quite well. The character development overall was really good as well. I don't have anything to say that is bad about it. I loved every aspect of the book. The detail of the whole world in the book was well described. The language barrier was also dealt with amazingly. Few things that i loved was the relationship of the two main characters. It was well done.Leviathan was a little slow to get into, however once they started to get more into the story that all change. He had everything well detailed and kept the reader interested into the story without fail. The action aspect was good as well. Overall i have only good opinions about this series. He did everything well in my opinion.

the princess bride


By Kayla B.

This book overall is good for anyone to read. It's mostly about two "lovers," Buttercup and Westley who live on a farm. But then Westley leaves the farm, while he was away word was sent to Buttercup that Westley was murdered. Because Buttercups "lover" had died she made a promise to never love anyone again. That's when Prince Humperdinck comes into the story. As part of the royal family when the King gets dies or decided that they aren't healthy enough to rule anymore he steps down, which now means that they need a new leader, usually the prince. In this scene "Prince Humperdinck." To be the new King he needs to marry and that's when he notices Buttercups beauty and strides to marry her. Buttercup has no choice but to marry him. At this point Westley is found to not be dead but ran away from pirates after him. So when it's time for the bride "Buttercup" to walk down the aisle Wesltey comes in to save the day. And they lived happily ever after.
