I really enjoyed this book! It was one of my favorites by David Sedaris. I really enjoyed the stories about Hugh and his father. Many of them were very funny, but also very sad.

This book was so good, this was the second time I read it. It's about a boy, Stewart, and a girl, Ashley, who are forced to live together since their parents are in a relationship. At first Ashley hates Stewart (calls him Spewart, Freakazoid, Nerd and other mean names) but in the end they become really good friend/siblings. Overall, a great book!

book cover


This is the 4th book in the series A Series of Unfortunate Events. It is about 3 siblings who lost their parents in a fire. They don't have any close relatives, so they are sent to live with a relative who owns a lumber mill in the miserable town of Paltryville. As soon as they get there, their relative puts them right to work. They have a terrible time there, and on top of that, strange things start happening them, and they suspect that one of their relatives is after them trying to steal their fortune(their parents left them a lot of money). They have to work together, using each other's strengths if they want to live a normal life. I rate it 4 stars.

Hope Was Here
by Joan Bauer

book cover


A surprisingly good book! In the first few pages I wasn't that sure if I should keep reading, but I'm glad I did. Hope Was Here is about a girl (Hope) who's a waitress and moves with her aunt/mother (her aunt takes care of her and acts like a mother) to a diner in Wisconsin. There she helps the owner of the diner (G.T.) to run for mayor, even though her has cancer....An amazing book that I highly recommend.

It was a well written book and my favorite part was when greg makes a 3 pt shot in the final buzzer to win the game.

Flush
by Carl Hiaasen

book cover


Overall, Flush was a pretty good book. It's about how the main character's dad wanted to get justice on someone who was dumping waste into the ocean. The reason I took away a star is because the middle felt boring and long. I didn't really want to keep reading, but I did anyway. It had a sweet ending (SPOILER OMITTED) which redeemed it.
