Book: Bright Young Things ( BYT #1)

 So  I have read the Luxe books and had mixed thoughts on it. This book was not like the luxe books at all. I have to say i liked it. it had the good things from the luxe and did not have all of the bad from the luxe books. it was pretty good. I liked some things better. I think that the next book will be okay. I liked this one. but it was not great. I think that it is a book for fans of the luxe books. there are still some things that Miss Anna needs to fix. The girls need to go deeper. and they need to feel more then love and hate.all they do is fall in love and hate people for there love. which is not how love works and is not how she should show it to young girls who read this good. it is said to be for 16 year olds but 11 year olds are reading it. she needs to know that making a soup in to a book never really works for long. but I have to say just like most of the luxe books I am 'into' them some what. and I will be reading and reviewing the next book. But that is only because I like Letty. she is a good girl. young. but bright. ( and also I want to know which on will die). over all, better then the luxe but only so so.

Book: Avalon High

Well the idea for the book is very weird... so to say, and I do not think any one but Meg could have made it work. I really like this book. some of it did not fit together just write but it was really very good. I like Elle. she is a funny girl. and I like the way the story played out. I did not like every thing. but I did not hate any thing. I think this is a book for all the Meg fans out there ( Like me).It is her book. just right for her fans.I think it makes you think about who is the hero of your school? how could you  help out like Will? and  are you like Jen? Or Elle? I think it is good in that way. but this is not the best book ever. and i think that some of you might start it. but i do not think you will all see it to the end. but good book. fun read. funny.

Book:Pesasus

This is not a book I would have read if not for this blog. I did not really care for the fact that there is no story and that is just about a girl. I thought that the first page was like the color grey. but as I start to get deeper in to the book the more I feel in love with it. this book has no story. it is like a movie the story is 2 not 1. the people of the story come first in this book. you do not see that a lot because it is very hard to do in a book. in a book you can not write people like they do in movies. it is harder to make the read feel what you people are feeling and even harder to get them to want to read the book just because of the people. but this book did a great job. It did it in a really cool way.it was not done as nicely was it was in Beastly. but it was still done very nicely and I did have fun reading it. this is not a book for every one as it is so unlike books. but it is a great book for lovers of Graceling. the book did go down hill a little. but over all pretty good.

Movie: Prince Of Persia :The Sands Of Time

So if this was any other movie I would wait till it comes out on DVD. But this is not just any old movie!this movie kicks some big time butt! yes there was a lot of killing and I was not happy about that. but every thing else rocked! this movie had it all. so did  not push movie making to the cliff but it did do what movies should do. and that is making you forget every thing and have a good time! I am in love with every thing about this movie ( aside from all the killing that is). this is a movie what every one will love. great for girls and boys. really great to watch and to think about. this a movie you will want to see. this is a movie for almost any one. if you like Sherlock Holmes then you will like this movie. really its good!Over all hard not to love this movie.

Book:Luxe: Spendor(#4)

Well I have read the other luxe books. and love the idea but hated the way the story played out. it was all to over the top for me and for young YA reads.  And I did not really want to read this book. But I did because of  her new  Bright Young Things ( review to come soon).  And this book is like a higher class rom-novel. I did not find this one to be as fun. just like Envy it was  trashy. it seems that every time a story got good some how it when right back to trash again.  over all pretty lame. but it did show me how much one can love and hate people in books. as I have been reading these books I have come to see that. I love Elizabeth and Linda. but find that I hate Diana. she and henry wear a poor story line and I hope that young girls out there do not look up to trash like her. and to tell the truth if there is some one like Diana in her next book I will not be giving it good reviews. this book says that true love is dark and in the shadows. but it is not. this books gives teen girls the wrong idea which will only get them hurt. Over all this book was so so not great but not the worst book I have ever read in my hole life. it this was just Diana then this would have been but I liked Elizabeth and Linda's stories so it is so so.

Book: The Daughters Break The Rules (#2)

I really liked the first book ( The Daughters ) and could not wait for this one. This book was not the way I thought it would be.this book had too messages to the readers. One is not to jug. I thought it was great how it was shown to us. you really got to see what it was like to jug and to be the one who gets jug.  you also saw how some one can change. I thought it was great how we saw that. you mostly see that stuff in movies because it does not work in books right. but it really worked. oh but back to the message of the book. Two was never to lie it only makes telling the truth harder and it only gets you hart.  this was also done like in the movies. but it was done very well.This book is like a Rom-Com in a book. fun with a little downer but great fun to read. I think this is a book for the fans of Secrets Of My Hollywood Life  books. Over  all pretty good very happy I read it.

 Well I really wanted to see this movie. I thought it was just my movie. well I was wrong. the name says it all. they where killers. And they did kill and they showed it. I liked the movie.But  I do not think that they need to show us the bodies and the blood.  I like the story. It was every funny. great movie to watch if you like Rom-Coms and movies about... well killlers. But the ending is not what you think it will be.just thought you should know before you see it.  I liked the cast. over all is pretty good. but  it is the name. it is like that movie Fool's Gold .

Book: The Life & Opinions Of Amy Finawitz

 This book is not a great work.But it is a great fun read. it was like talking to a best friend for me. Amy is a fun girl. a Diva. but fun. and her plays are just great! I really liked this book. it is not like every Teen ( or YA) book out there. I like all the plays.  i think that they are a really funny. they made the book for me. the story was not that great. again just life. but Amy makes they book. I think that she is a  bit of an idiot my self. But once you get over that the book is pretty good. I like the book. but I thought Anna's Secret was OK. not as cool as I thought it was.  but over all the book was pretty good. not great. but it was really funny. I liked  Amy and how she changed for the start to the end.

Book: 39 Clues:In To The Into the Gauntlet (#10)

 This book started off great but end poorly. I love these books.  so they are no Harry Potter but they are great fun reads for teens. it is great because guys and girls can read them. so my Brother and I were not happy to hear this was the last one.  this book was great but the end SUCKED! it left  me feeling  like a black hole of nothing. it told killed the book for me.I mean they had they really cool place the test. Isabelle. But they did not have the big Thin Man tell all that they should have. the end was to life sized for a lager than life book like this.and they did not even have they family really come together. they the how Dan with the 39 Clues thing was silly. so for fans of the books a must read. and if you have not read the books you must.  but do not get your hopes up for the ending the world has ever seen.

Movie:Imagine That

This movie is sweet and heartfelt. but it was hard for me to watch. like then he runs in to the house. I could not watch it. I do not find that funny. but other then that it was pretty good. it was a lot like the movie Game Plan. ( I also reviewed that movie).  I think that movie is better. but this was still really cute. and I really liked it.over  all a cute family movie.
BTW: I love the post. I think it is better then a lot of posters I have seen.

Okay ,Okay I know what you are thinking " Why is DaydreamerN's  doing a review of this?" Well here is why, DaydreamerN has a  brother ( that would be me DaydreamerC). So when I read this book I thought I would review it.
It is really good. I love Si-Fi.  And this book is pretty good.  I like how funny this book is. But there was some parts I could not Like. Like how they went on and on.But this is only  a book for fans of the TV show  I  think that is was nice to read because Star wars is one of the best Si-Fi movie and books out there. They are full of story. So I say this is a great book for fans of the TV show. And for fans of the movies try the TV show( and I mean watch more then just  few sec of it). and fans of Si-fi try the  Star wars movies.  really they are much better then you might think!

Book:The Indigo Notebook

  When I first read the  inside of the book.I thought  I would not like it. but I really  liked it.  there was a lot of good in the book. it really should that just because you might think every one does some thing. does not mean they do. it was great to read about this place. and know that  it is true. that the people do really look that way  she tells you. I like how she thinks she wants the every day life. but than she  thinks about and she does have any every day life for her. But there where some things in there that I did not like. like how she   was up all night with that one boy. but  I liked  almost every thing else. it really tells you   what that world is like over this world. that nothing is the same. I can not wait to read the next book! I really love this book! so if you like a book that will take you to know fun places. this is a must read book for you!

Book: stealing heaven

 I do not like the story idea. but I like Dani. She is a very cool girl.But even as cool as she is the book had some bad things going for it. Yes as cool as the book is it is not good. The idea was okay. I like how tit shows a  new life. she has never been to school but that does not mean she is an idiot which I liked. But  I  did not like the story. it did not go any where and there where some things that did not need to be in the book. It was nothing big but it was still in there. I  like how she and her mom are friends. but I did not like all the guys and her mom. but the thing with her and the Cop was fun to read. I thought she was a little weird with him.
 and I hate the end of the book. it was like a bad TV movie.   really bad. I do not like the book very much.If you want a great book or even a good book this is not the one to read.  ever thing about it was off in one way or another.
 I do like the cover of the book.

And I like that. you get Enola in a NEW  book in so many ways.   I like it. the story is like nothing I have ever read ! in a good way.  really a most read.
 It is not like the  trashy books you see and read ever day. This is one of the books you can not help but  love from page one. The book is one ever one should have. It is just like the really Sherlock Holmes books.

Book: Once A Witch

 REALLY good! I have wanted to read this book for a very long time. and to tell the truth I am so happy I did. this book is not at all a wast of time ( not that I ever thought it would be)!  I feel the story was a very well thought out one. I liked  Tam. She was fun and found my self really liking her take on things and I cared what she did. She was not the fluffy airhead that I read about so much in YA. I thought she was way cool.
Another thing  I like the pace of  the story. once you read page one you do not want to put it down! it is way good! I think fans of Harry Potter might like it. fans of the  any one who loves magic will just love this book! think it is a book that  you will love just as much as I do. it is  not really a light summer read but for me it was really nice to read a book that was not just fun it had more story to it then some other books out there.  I can not wait to read the next book!

Book: Reality Check

I love the Secrets Of My Hollywood life books. So I thought I would read this.  There where a lot of things I did and did not like about this book.  Like I did not like  how all they wanted was to have money and go  around in Hummers. I thought it was poor. like she did not give a lot of time in to making the girls.They where not very real  to me. the only one that was a little real was Hallie.  and the way did things was just off in one way or another. And this is just like ever other book by Calonita. It is always about two girls fighting. it is getting old. I would like to see so much more from her. 
what I did like was the way that it showed you the truth about reality TV. and that it might look fun but it is not at all. I thought Brooke was a good way of showing that.
it is a so so book over all. I was hoping to see a lot more from it and Charlie.  I thought the cover was cool.
this is a book for any one who loves DRAMA.

Book: Linger(The Wolves of Mercy Falls, #2)

Why did I read this book?  Because I do try to be as fair as I can. I know writing a book is very hard and a big undertaking and at times when I have looked back on my review of Shiver I have asked myself if I was being fair. So in the name of trying to be fair and do right by the blog I read this book. Which was pretty long so I had best be getting some points for being fair.
My thoughts one it?  They are a lot like my thoughts on book 1 ( Shiver).  When I read this book I do not feel the love between Sam and Grace. It is not real love to me. I found myself feeling hopeless and like love was out of reach and never going to happen. And that no matter what you do life is going to kick you down so you might as well stay down. At points I found myself thinking that maybe Romeo and Juliet had the right idea in the end. Because if I was Sam or Grace I would have started to feel that way. If you wanted me to tell you a book with a fairy tale paranormal love story that was good I would give Beastly  a try. This book was in someways better than  Shiver. Not much better  . But that does not make this book or Shiver a good book. The new character I felt help add to the story that like I said was all over the place in the first one. And at least the setting of Mercy Falls was still there and that helped me feel better about the time I spent on this book. And one more thing I would like to say before I rap it up is :I do not like how Grace was with her her Mom and Dad. it was like the Writer was saying " teens if you think you are in love, but your mom and dad don't then do not  do what they say". And that is not what we should be telling Teens. I'm sorry but at some point these YA writers have to take a good look at the real world when writing these books.
Was it a wast of time? No, it was not a waste of time for ME.  I got to blog about it and I can say that I have  read it. I was fair and I gave it a chance.! but do I think you should read it?  I would lean with no.  Over all I would say its a pass for me.

I liked this book because it was not like book 3 and I liked book 3 because it was not like book 2, and I like book 2 because it is not like book one, and one is like no other book I have read. really you should give this books a chance. I know a lot of people who did not like book one but could not put down book 2. this books are really some thing NEW in an old way. and I love them. really you should read them. 
It was fun. It was not just fun it was great! really it is so hard to find a book this GREAT! it has ever thing a book should! Enola is some one who will never be forgotten. just like her big brother Sherlock! I think that this is read a book ever one should read. it is full of ever thing that makes a book great! ever thing is put together just right. and did I tell that Sherlock was GREAT in this book. yes, he was just right.

 Well  it was the cover and the name that made me want to read this book. and it was good but not great. as you can guess. it is a very nice book for a first time writer. but there where some things what where and are off. like all the wine. no teen and I mean no teen should have all that wine. and I do not think that it should have been in the book so much. it might give some teens the wrong idea. Its little things like that in her story that don't add up and it really took away from the book.
so over all the book was pretty good. not great. I hope to see more from the writer.
it is a good book for some one  how has lost a brother or sister.  it is not a bad but it is just not great
like beastly. but if you have lost some one you love then this book might help. the end was good. not great but good. I like how the tell you to let go. but in a good nice way. not a mean way. because ever one has a hard time with the death of some one they love.

and there are not words that I can  think of to tell you how good this good is. the first 11 pages are hard to read. but after that you will  want to put the book down.  there is just some about it. it is like the book is Magic its self. when you read it you find your self in a hole new world.  and the best part of the book is guys and girls will love it. yes. I gave to to a guy friend to read and he liked it a lot. so it is a good for almost ever one. which also makes it a great read. it is a book like Harry Potter. ever one will find some thing to like in it. but as the movie is coming out that means you all HAVE TO READ THIS BOOK NOW!! okay maybe not right. but do not see the movie with out reading the book. it rocks. it is not some silly fairy tale. it is a killer book! the book world will never be the same again.  it is not going to be easy to read okay books after this one. it gives YA  books a great name.  this is a good I am going to buy. I want to have it in my home. it is that great  of a book! it is one of my top 10 book of all time! so if you need a book like a great book here is the one. it is one all of your friends will like. this is a book I think you all should read for summer reading!

 so I did not have as much fun reading this one as I did 1 and 2. but I did like it was I was reading it. it helped me see that some times you have to do that your mom and dad tells you. and that goes stars more then ever one else.  I just wish that the story could have been more new and not just like all of the SMHL books.  but it did show that just because some on was nice does not mean that they will always be that way.  so  yes I do not like cat fights. I do not like that this book was all about it. I hope the next book is not all about it too. but other then that I really liked it.  it was nice to see Kaitlin  and her boyfriend get closer. one thing I loved in it was that Sky told Kaitlin some thing. that thing is some times you just have to let life Happen. that that is some thing ever one needs to get. that life is life and just let it be. that was one really cool thing about the book.it  shows us and makes us think about things we would not think about with out it. like if you are not on FA you do not know what is really going on with the stars so do not take sides. things like that. over all pretty good book. not as good as 1 and 2.

I think the people and the hole New York thing. it is a little like that show. suite life of Zack and some thing.
 I like the writing.  and I think the story is funny. and I like the O'Hara thing. I am an old movie lover so it was funny to have the name thing.
after reading it  I have to tell you the truth I loved it! great book. it is on my top 100 list of books! it was ever thing a book should be. and it had one of the best endings EVER! it is a book I would read again and again!  really a good like no other! it is a great book! yes it was hart to get in to but when you read all of it you foll in love with it. just like life and Searlett you have to wait to the end to see the big pic. and that it some thing I thought was cool about it. she got soo much more them her friends that summer things she can uses for her hole life!

and I love the actor who plays the mom( I am forgetting her name right now).  it was so much fun to watch. it was funny to watch. yes it is no oscar winning movie but it was a good movie.  and think it is a good movie to watch at like 2:00 pm and its to hot out side. this is the movie you and your Mom should watch. it is fun and I love it.
it is a little like My Big Fat Greek Wedding. So if you like and movies with music you will really like this.
I say it is a see it movie! it is fun for Moms and Daughters

( PG-13 if you know the story then you know why. she is trying to find which of 3 men is her Father.)

Book:Nathaniel:Flight Of The Phoenix (#1)

Yes I know this  is  a book for like 7 or 8 years.  but when I saw that the writer I was all "I HAVE TO READ THIS BOOK". but I have to say IT WAS A GREAT BOOK!  it was fun to read.  really a cute book. I like the fun in it. but like theodosia the story does not stop at book one. there are still some many things to read about in book 2. and yes I will be reading the next book. Moms/dads this is a good book for your kids to read. it is hard to read. but by page 10 it is hard not to read! you will have a kid who is smart and likes to read when they are done with this book.

Talk:What is it with The Hunger Games?!

 I know people love it. I have not read it. but from what I hear it is not a book that people should be reading. Kids fighting to the death?! Am I the only one to see what is wrong with that?  I know my readers keep wanting me to read the book and I might. but first look at why I have not read it. ever one I know  who read this is  Scaerd out of there minds!but they say they love it. there some thing wrong with this?!this that a good thing? NO! it is not a good thing. and it is books like that I am fighting.So sorry to tell you but I am not a fan right now. and will I read the book maybe. but  first the only book reader I trust will read and tell me if I should. because I do not really want to wast my book time on that!

Interview: Jackie Dolamore

Jackie Dolamore is the write of  Magic Under Glass. She was Homeschooled as a kid.and when I asked her to to this interview she was more then happy to. if you would like to read more about her just go to writers pages.

 DaydreamerN:I hear you where Homeschooled as a kid what was that like? Do you think it has helped your writing?

 Jackie Dolamore:.I was homeschooled in a very unstructured way. My mom gave us math textbooks but 80% of my education probably came from library books which I chose myself, and traveling/field trips and stuff like that. It definitely helped my writing. My sister and I spent hours in creative pursuits, and when I wasn't writing or drawing or making something or playing pretend games (or "playing characters" as we called it), I was reading. If you want to be a writer as an adult, it certainly doesn't hurt to spend your entire childhood reading and writing...

DN:how did you get the idea for magic under glass?

JD:Ideas kind of come from a million places--usually a mix of inspiration from TV/other books/movies/comics/whatever, history, real experience, and dreams. And then there's a sort of random, magical element that brings it all together, which is how some stories get written and sold and some don't, I think.

DN: Can you tell us when your next book will come out?

JD:My next book will be out in April or May of 2011. The Magic Under Glass paperback will come out a bit before that with a preview. That book is called Between the Sea and Sky and it's about a mermaid and a winged guy who fall in love. Magic Under Stone will be released in 2012

DN:What book helped you the most?

JD:Do you mean writing books? Or life in general? My favorite writing craft book is probably Writing the Breakout Novel by Donald Maass. In general, I can't honestly pinpoint one book...there are so many books that have influenced and inspired me.

Book: Along For The Ride

Well I have wanted to read the book for a very very long time. and so I did. I really like it. it makes me think of The Last Song ( which  I am or was reading).  I like the people in the book are so life like. they make me mad or sad some times happy. I like the way it shows you you can not know some one just by looking at them.And I love how they have Thisbe in it. it was cute to have a baby in a book. I love how it was by the sea.  it is was nice to read a happy nice sweet filling book.  it was like apple pie. not just any apple pie but great apple pie. some of the best out there. it is a great some read for all girls.The story is good. it is one any girl will like. I like how Aud never did what ever one else did.  but there was one downer to it. it was just a little to long for me.  it just did no get better.And a little hard to read at the end of it. but another then that. I LOVED the book. it was one of the best just-the-life-of -some-one books I have ever read. I like the people, the story, and the beach!I like how it shows you some people change some do not.This is one of the books that will change some ones life. maybe more then just one. and I love the book!
Over all a really fine book!great summer read!

Book: Incarceron

Well ever since I read Harry potter I have always wondedered what it would be like if a Denentor attacked me. and now I know!reading this book was just like that. I could feel all the life being pulled right out of me. I felt so bad. I have never felt that way! This is not a book that should be a YA book. it is to dark. now I know some of you will want to read it just because of that.but only read it if you  want to feel really bad. it was a book with all these killings. this guy just killed.for not good! if any one wants to hear about stuff like that just have me call my grandma!   some one almost killed her hole town. she has seen things that you do not even what to know about! if you want to read about killing read the real thing! because then you would smart!( it was because of war.)  and people are reading and loving this book! I know very well it is not a good thing for the mind to read that so young. and if you do not believe me you are crazy. it is true just ask any one who knows the mind.Books like this will only led to bad sad mean things. the young mind can not take things like this book! it  makes Shiver look GREAT! now you know that is a bad book! this book should not read by Teens any where. If this is the book the world  loves then the world is a very sorry world. this book does not have any thing good to it.  well not if you think killing is a bad thing that is. but if your like me and just want a safer world then do not read this book. it makes me so mad that this is a bestseller. it should not be at all. it is A VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY VERY BAD BOOK!!!! I HATE THE BOOK LIKE I HATE NOTHING ELSE!! IT SHOULD NOT BE READ BY TEENS!! THIS BOOK SHOULD NOT BE FOR TEENS! YOUR MIND CAN NOT GET WHAT IS GOING ON!! ONLY READ THIS BOOK IF YOU  WANT TO GO CRAZY!! I HATE THIS BOOK! THERE IS NO WORD OUT THERE THAT CAN SAY HOW BAD THIS BOOK IS! NO WORD IN THE HOLE WORLD THAT CAN BEGIN TO TELL YOU HOW SICK AND BAD AND WRONG THIS BOOK IS!!!
did you get how much I hate it? well I hope so I do not know any other way to do it nicely. I am  still a
teener. ( well when you look at me. no when who knows me believes I am that young.)

( YA so says writer. but I think it should be for people who are like 50. maybe then they will not kill people)

STARS: I HATE IT MORE THEN ANY MOVIE OR BOOK I HAVE EVER LIED EYES ON

Book:Magic Under Glass

When I read the title I thought what a great name. but then as I read it i did not think that. the book is full of magic!it tells a story of fairies VS. humans. And what is right and wrong. and what I got out of it is that just because some one is not like you does not mean they are wrong.  it is a story that had me thinking. it made me think about things in a new way. Nimira did not look at fairies as bad but she looked at them as living things. which is what we should all be doing too. she saw what no one else did. and she did what she though was right. In this book they tell a story about a wall. it sound like some thing you know about? well it should. it is just like the really life wall. and if you read this book I hope you get out what I got out of it. what I got out was that some thing like a wall should never happen. we need to see with our hearts more. that is what Nimira did. it is a really good book. if I liked it or loved it is unknown to me as of now. and I also felt that is was a lot like Jane Eyre which I really liked. I felt like it was a twisted and it worked well.  other then being a little on the short side I really did like this book.
This is a book for all Gemma Doyle lovers.Also the Jane Erye feel is pretty cool. but it has more love then Gemma. It  has so much magic that I felt like I was a magic my self. and I think that if the name or cover catches your eye then i say its a must grab.

Book:Aurelia

Well when you look at the book you think it is nothing at all.but when you read it you see that it really is a great book! yes it is not very well known but it is a great book. I think more people should read it!

yes there is one thing I did not like in it and that was when Aurelia was with the killer. I did not like it.and when you read it you will see why. but over all very good. I loved it just as much as the Gemma Doyle books. it is hard for any one to find a good book. and if you are looking for one here it is! this book is just one of a kind. Anne did a great job on it! I can not wait to read her next book I hope it is just as good! is book had me at the up all night ( I was not up all night but I want to be up all night reading this book!)  I never saw the end coming! I love books with good ends I never see coming! if you want to read a book with a great end read this!Really a great summer read! it had me in another world! and I was sad when it was time to go.   this book just like the story is not what is looks like. and that to me is a good book.

Book:39 Clues:The Emperor's Code (#8)

Well the story of this one was bigger then the other books. but this one was not well done. the write whent way to far with it! I mean there is NO WAY most of the story could happen in really life.
yes the story of the books would not happen in really life but they are more real then this book. It was hard to read this one!  I will not say why because it will not be fun for the ones of you that want to read this book.but if you do you will see what I mean. I hope the next book is not like this one at all!

Movie:Iron Man ( #1)

Book: Secrets Of My Hollywood Life: On Location (#2)

Well I just love the first book! so I really wanted to read book too. I have to say I liked this one more. it shows you the true life of Hollywood stars. well movie stars that is. you got to see more of Katie's life as the star. and there was more Sky. but it would not be secrets of my hollywood life with out her. it is a lot like book 1. but over all I think it is better. it shows you the games of Hollywood. and it tells you the secrets no one else will say. really great summer read for teens that want to know the truth of Hollywood.  so  the nice thing is it has the good stuff of gossip girl with out the bad and not so fun to read stuff. I love the books and can not wait to read the next book! it sounds very very good!
I hope we get to see more of the games of Hollywood and see how one has to work with them

Movie:Alice in Wonderland

I HATE IT!  Tim Burton and Johnny Depp did it again. they killed one of the best stories ever told!  this is one of my fav stories! and they killed it! I so badly wanted to see this movie,and now I wish I had never ever seen it! it is not a movie kids should see. ( 3-9) it just takes  way the dreams ever little kid should have. I am so happy I was not a little girl when this came out. Teens should see it.But it is not fun.
The sets are great! all of that is very cool. and watching it is fun to see that.but it is not fun when so much of story is wrong.how Tim Burton could do this is just....very very sad. it is not some great movie. and i fell so sorry for ever little kid that saw this movie. it kills them! and this movie is like food that has gone bad.  you just want to put it in the trash where it goes!   so no little kid should see it!

Book:Fairy Dust And The Quest For The Egg

Well it was a long time ago I  read this book. I loved it some much that I had to read it three times. it is a book where I both smiled so much my face hurt and I cried. this is a book that I fell in love with. and so will any girl love loves both magic and a beautiful story.I was crazy about fairies after this book. I want to read more about all of the fairies in the book. and I did. but I have to say this is still my fav out of all of them.  it is very hard to find a book out there that feels like magic. when you read it you feel like you have the magic of the fairies with you. and ever night you go to sleep with dreams of them in your head. this is a book that shows young girls it is okay to believe in magic and that magic is all around us. all we have to do is look with your hearts and not your eyes.
 This is a book that will change a girls life.For the better. it is a book that should be on every young girls shelf.  it is one of the best books a girl could read. Moms and Dads should read this with little girls. there is one part that they will need you for. and you should read it with them! they still need you to read to them here and there. and it is a book you will like too. believe me!

Book: English Roses: Friends For Life (#1) ( By Madonna)

Well when you hear it is a book by Madonna you are like " oh boy Madonna! this is going to be one odd book!" but then you read it. and you like " there is NO way this book is by her but it is. the book is a lot better then a lot of books for young girls. these books show you things in life no book does. the books sound like some Princess or Lady wrote them. they show girl how to act.  what to and not do. they are very very good books. and I think ever young girl show take a good look at them. they are fine books. ( or this one and the pic book was) but you should give them a try. even if you hate Madonna.

well just like ever one I saw the TV adds for the movie and never wanted to see it.  I though it would just be some silly movie. like a really bad chick movie as some call it.but then one night I watched it. and I really liked it. funny. a little silly. but over all a really good movie.  it had love for the girls and it had  big bad with guns for the boys. it is a great date night movie or a good girls night movie. it is nothing life changing but it is a good because you smile when you watch it.

Movie:The Time Traver's Wife

 well it was not as good as I had hoped it would be.  I though it would be one off the loves stories that had me  feel like I was in the movie too. like I was right there.but it did not do that for me. It moved to fast. it never really  slowed down so you could get in to it.I feel that there was a part of the story missing. I do not know what but just some thing. It was not the beautiful movie I though it would be. I though it would blow me away. but it did not.  I like the idea of a boy who can time travel and about a girl who loved him as a little girl. that is all good. but what I did not like was the way the movie played it out. I like the  #1 hafe of the movie. it was fun to see them happy.  the story was strong there. and so was the acting.  see? yes. it is nice to watch once and only once.

Book:Runaway

well it was great - but not great for a Meg Cabot book. I think that she wrote it the best she or any could have. it is not any easy story to tell.And to have to up with a book to follow Being Nikki is very very very hard to do. but Meg did write a book that almost ever one will love. I did not love it as I was reading it but when I was done with it I did. Runaway is not one of Megs best books-but as a book it is  great! I did not see it coming! I hope that Meg can write a good book to follow this ( and I do not mean an Airhead book).
Over all a very very very good book!

well I love the 39 clues.and I love this book. it is fun to read. full of a story like some thing from one of the Oceans movies it had me think of spies and lies. I loved the way it tells a story of art. I think that it is a great fun read. it tells the story of a life I will never live. but the way Ally Carter writes it you feel you are right there in it all.  really a good. I think that she did a very good job with the story. I would have liked to hear more about ever one in the book.really a just for fun book.
