Legend
Marie Lu

This book was told through two different characters, Day and June. Day is a poor boy living on the streets and June is living in upper class.  They live totally different lives until day killed Junes older brother and June tracks him down.


I think there was symbolism that we shouldn't take anything for granted. This is why I think the book was set in a very dramatic world meaning everyone was really poor, or really rich.

The Absolutely True Diary Of a Part Time Indian
Sherman Alexie 

I would recommend this book for a book group. In fact, I think you should only read this book as a book group book. There are a lot of topics in the book that some people would not understand, topics that people would need some one to talk to about. In the book There are a lot of cartoons, some of them are confusing, so you might need someone to talk to, just to comprehend the content.

I think that would make a good movie. I think it would make a better movie than a book. There are a lot of places where Emotions and actual people saying the context, would really benefit to the movie.

The Absolutely True Diary Of A Part Time Indian
Sherman Alexi

Junior was born with to much Cerebral Spinal Fluid in is brain. He is constantly getting teased an bullied on the reservation. He chooses to leave the reservation to go the the rich white school (Reardan.) He has to find himself before he does anything else. 

I liked this book because it was a really fun read, meaning I want to keep reading more. I also like it because it feels like a real story that would actually happen to an Indian. It talks about racism, poverty and more. I would really recommend this book.

Yaqui Delgado Wants to Kick Your Ass
Meg Medina


Piddy Sanchez just moved from her old school and knows nobody. One day a girl comes up to her and tells Piddy that Yaqui Deldado wants to kick here ass. Yaqui Delgado and her crew starts to bully Piddy. The bulling slowly gets worse, and Piddy try to stay away from Yaqui's crew but they keep coming back. 

I thought this was a good book because instead of having an obvious ending, Medina made a more realistic ending.  I also liked it because I have never read a book about bulling before.
