Books, Books, and more AMAZING Books!

Thanks giving break and reading assignments have given me the chance to read. A LOT.

Life as We Knew It, The Dead and the Gone, This World We Live In, by Susan Beth Pfeffer. The diary of a girl named Miranda, and the story of a boy named Alex. in the last book they meet, but thats not important right now. Basically an astroid hits the moon and causes the climate to change drastically, knocking out electricity, radar, connections, everything. The tides freak out, and the death toll is high. But Miranda and Alex somehow make life work. *****

I Am Number Four, by Pittacus Lore. when Mogadorians attack Lorien for its resources, nine four year old Garde and their Cepan escape to Earth to protect their race. a charm has been placed on them, so they can only be killed in order of their numbers, unless they come together. After a lifetime of changing identities, Three has been killed. Four is forced to leave again and move to Paradise, Ohio, where he meets a girl, a friend, and he may have to leave at anytime. *****

The Scorch Trials, by James Dashner. Remember Maze Runner? This is the sequel! Read Maze Runner. In this book, there is another trial, this time in the sunburned desert called the Scorch. The Gladers have to survive yet another test, a test that may be able to save human kind. Totally awesome! *****

The Roar, by Emma Clayton. When animals suddenly turn plagued with the Roar, a wall is built to keep animals out... and people in. thats pretty much all I can tell you! *****

AWESOME BOOKS, Must reads, whatever you call them
I reccomend them.

Extra, Extra, Ear All About It!

As a lot of people know, I (used to) have a hole in my eardrum. Dr. Kutz, my Ear doc, said a tempanoplasty was necessary. A tempanoplasty is when they take a bit of skin from your ear and graft it on to yor eardrum. they do it all the time and it is practically painless... unless you are me, that is!

Usually I'm a daddy's girl. But i pulled a Mom during this surgery. No, instead of being normal and just getting the graft, the doctors decided to replace the entire thing. Why? Because there were some cells that were choking my eardrum and if we hadnt gotten it fixed when we did, I would have had about a two year window before i lost my whole eardrum... including my hearing.

So now i have this beautiful (painful) incision behind my ear, itchy packing in my ear, and (hopefully) better hearing when it comes out. They do this so rarely. twice a year, max. I'm so thankful for those doctors and my parents who were there for me the whole time.


Anyway, Friday december tenth is the play NOT SO GRIMM TALES. Its ok. Not the best play i have ever done. but we are a new school, no? :)

I Read the Uglies series over break.
I RECOMMEND IT TO ANYONE AND EVERYONE. :))))
They are super good and hard to put down. I like the first and last one the best, the last one because of the technology in the city.

Later!
