My Vote

All the books seemed really really good. For Christmas break my goal is to read every single one of those!!! I still haven't decided so i'll keep chattering on until I do.

Mondays presentation: Both of the books seemed really interesting. I’ve read a book by Kevin Brooks called “The Road of the Dead” and I loved it, so I’m totally positive that I’d love Candy!! As for “No Country for Old Men,” I actually saw the movie the day before they presented, and it was as confusing as heck! So if the book clarifies it, I’m totally reading it.

Wednesday: “The Road” and “the Alchemist.” Those seemed so good also! “The Alchemist” seemed like it would be so positive and would just life your spirits high! And I remember my high school history teacher telling the class about “The Road,” and it sounds sooo good, almost like an M. Night Shyamalan movie, and I LOVE his movies!!! But that teacher was halfway through and never told us the ending either. THIS IS SO HARD, WHO WILL I VOTE FOR!?!?!?!

Today’s presentation: “My Most Excellent Year” seemed like an awesome book too! Reminds me of “Twelve Long Months” kind of. It’s about a girl who gets a scholarship to New York University (well…some university in New York), and she figures out that the love of her life (her high school chem. Lab partner) will be near there too! She’s so excited, but finds out he’s gay, so he obviously wouldn’t like her because she’s not even the right gender. Ok, so not the same plot, but it just reminded me of it. “My Sister’s Keeper,” my presentation was the BEST book EVER! I love that book! If I could, I would totally vote for that one.

Well, not that I’ve blabbered on, I guess I have to vote now…My vote is: THE ALCHEMIST!!!
