Tangled *SPOILER ALERT*

i am currently reading Tangled by Carolyn Mackler, it is really good book. it is about four people Jena, Skye, Dakota, and Owen; they all go to a place called Paradise for spring vacation (Skye and Jena go together because their moms are best friends, but they don't really talk). they all end up meeting and their lives end up becoming "tangled" together and their lives will change forever. the book is split into 4 parts (each part from a different persons view), and i  have read Jena's part so far.

Jena is 16 and lives in Topeka, New York with her mom Janet. she is a typical 16 year old girl: she is madly in love with a boy named Samir who barely even knows tat she exists, she has 2 best friends Ellie and Leora, she is addicted to being online and blogging . except shes different because she loves collecting quotes and random things that just speak to her and rights them in her "everything book" she loves romances, but thinks it will never really happen to her. her family is middle class but Luce (her moms bff and Skye's mom) is rich, so she decides to treat them to a trip to Paradise. her and Skye are forced to be together because of there mom , but they never really talk. Jena feels that Skye is to cool for her and starts blabbing random stuff when she is with her.

Skye is 16 and lives with her rich mom Luce. she is and up- and-coming actress and model, she goes the the most expensive private school and drives the coolest car. she basically has the life every girl wishes they had- or at least Jena wishes she had. she has a super hot boyfriend for 2 years but they suddenly break-up and she really changes. she doesn't hang out anymore and she is home schooled now, and i feel like she doesn't want to act.

Owen and Dakota are brother; Owen is 16 and Dakota is 18. Dakota is super hot and Owen is a geek. i feel like Owen is living under the shadow of his brother. i haven't really learned about them yet, but i feel like they are hiding things- especially Dakota and that their life is complicated. like people say don't judge a book by its cover.

can't wait to see what happens!!

Ruthless *SPOILER ALERT*

i am currently reading Ruthless which is the tenth book in the Pretty Little Liars series and it is really good.  there are 4 main characters Aria, Spencer, Hanna, and Emily. they are all going through really hard times right now and never really get a break. if i were one of them i don't know how i would survive. When the girls went on vacation to Jamaica, they met a girl named Tabitha; she reminded them exactly of Ali, who supposedly died in the fire. but the girl has burn marks all over her and says things to them that only Ali knows, they are convinced she is Ali, but she says she is Tabitha Clark from New Jersey. one night when she meets up with the girls on a cliff they feel threatened and end up pushing her off by accident. 1 year later her body washes up to shore and autopsy confirms that the girl is actually Tabitha.

I can't wait to see what happens next!!

Twisted

I recently started reading the book Twisted, which is ninth book in the Pretty Little Liars series. it is pretty good right now, but its just sort of getting people up to speed about what has happened in the past year.

so in the end of the last book the girls found out who A was, it was Ali. and she tries to kill them in a fire, but they escaped and she was trapped in the house. when fireman and cops searched the rubble and investigated, they found no sign what-so-ever of bones. but they pronounced Ali dead anyway because, they said that it was impossible that she could have gotten out. at first the girls were still paranoid and worried but the got over it, except Emily didn't. she was always more attached to Ali than any of the other girls and she knew what Ali was capable with, so she still thought Ali was somehow alive; but she just pushed it to the back of her mind. 

after the whole incident, the girls became super close! even closer than they were back in the seventh grade. Spencer says that they need a vacation and that they should go to Jamaica. so Aria, her boyfriend Noel. Spencer, Emily, Hanna and, her boyfriend mike (aka Aria's brother) all went. they were in a club and then Emily spotted a girl in a yellow dress that looked super familiar. when she looked closer she realized the girl had the unforgettable heart shaped face, crystal blue eyes and, blond hair; and the girl was also covered in burn marks and scars.she immediately knew that it was Ali, she told the other girls and they were shocked. something happened that night that is known as a big "incident: that we still don't know about, but whatever it is made the girls end their friendship and stop talking.

what is happening in each girls life right know is:\

Spencer got an early accepted to Princeton  and her mom is dating a really rich guy. he has a daughter and son (Zach). when they go out to dinner it is just him and his daughter and he says Zach is at a class and will be there shortly. him and his daughter are supper snobby and hate Spencer, but love Melissa. when Spencer is waiting on line for the bathroom, some guy starts talking to her; and she finds out his name is Zach.

nothing has really happened to Aria she is just with Noel.

Hanna's dad is running for mayor and he really wants her to be part of nothing. she is sad and feels really sad but this guy named Patrick says she has potential to be a model and gives her his card. she tells Mike but he doesn't want her to do it because he feels like Patrick wants her.

Emily quiet swimming so now she has no way to get a scholarship. so she has to work and her parents really don't like her.

i can't wait to see what happens next!! 

Romeo and Juliet

I am up to act 3 scene 1 in Romeo and Juliet, and i must admit its actually really good. i thought that it was just going to be some old sappy romance but, it actually has a lot of meaning to it and a lot of action and drama. there is a lot of meaning and passion in it and i'm actually glad that we are reading this.


what has happened so far is that Romeo is a Montague and Juliet is a Capulet and their family's are enemies. the Capulet's throw a party and Benvolio and Romeo go, but the reason Romeo goes is so that he can see Rosaline the girl that he "loves" and that broke his heart. that is were him and Juliet meet and they immediately fall in love, but then they find out each others last names. but that doesn't stop them from being together. when the party is over Romeo sneaks to Juliet's balcony, which is known as the famous balcony scene. the following day Romeo sends Juliet a request to marry him, and she accepts and they get married. 


that's all i have read so far. even though we know from the prologue that Romeo and Juliet are going to end up dead, we still read it and it is really good. and i think we kind of forget that they are going to end up dying, and get caught up in their romance. i think that the most interesting person out f all the characters is Juliet. she started off as an innocent  and obedient daughter of a rich family. she was basically a parents dream daughter. and she made the biggest turn around and change ever. people are always saying to be yourself and not change for anyone, and in a way i feel like she did change to be with Romeo. she changed how she acted and her attitude towards her family.


i'm excited to see what happens next!
