twilight:

i read the first 20 pages of twilight in class on monday, i found it on ms.tabers shelf and decided to give it a try. it is actually quite a good book, very realistic and exciting. so far, Bella has transferred to her new school and has just started her first day. its very well paced too, and well written. One of those books where as you read its like watching a movie that you create and envision in your own way. the author is good about making bella's emotions similar to lots of other people. for example, when it's Bella's first day, she describes how she feels in a way that so many people can relate to on their fist days. Also how the author doesn't just give away Bella's personality, it comes in bits and pieces as you read. All in all, i enjoyed the book much more than i thought i would have so i strongly recommend it to someone who hasn't read it.

Im reading, "Don't judge a girl by her cover" By Ally Carter. Its about a teenage girl who goes to a school that the world thinks is just another bratty rich kid school, but thats what everyone else thinks. To go to the Gallagher Academy for Exceptional Young Women means to go to spy school, being a Gallagher means your a teenage girl spy. There are four books in the series, I've read two already but have only just started this one. The main character, Cammie Morgan has four room mates at her boarding school. In this particular book, Cammie is visiting one of her (famous) room mates, Macey McHenry in Kansas, to watch her father accept nomination for vice president of the United States of America. But find themselves caught in the scheming plans of kidnappers. As her and her friends try to solve the real question, who is really after macey? I strongly recommend this mix of danger, excitement, romance and humor. I found it to be full of twists and turns but easily paced. I should say this is more of a girl book but, its enjoyable for everyone. I hope you use this recommendation and read the book sometime.
