This is a graphic novel about a girl named Raina. She just wanted to have a normal life as a child, but something tragic happened. She fell down and and broke her her front teeth. Therefore, she has to go through a lot of embarrassing process for a elementary kid. Surgery, headgear, fake teeth, braces. Those had made her childhood not as easy as she thought. It's a basic example of peer pressure, when a girl just wanted to fit in, but instead, something opposite responded. This is a real story by the author, Raina Telgemeier. I can relate to this to my real life perfectly. Since I faced peer pressure before when I can't do what I want, and have to do something I don't want because of being afraid getting kicked out. This is a really interesting book recommended to age from 10-12. It's really funny, it will definitely bring you to a good mood. Enjoy!Over 8 years agolaurak added a book review.
This is a really interesting book, once you start reading it you can't stop! It's basically about aliens invading earth. Those aliens would live in human body which is called "host", and control them. After the human body got possessed by the aliens, there will be a little while circle in their eyes, so that can differentiate who's human and who's aliens. Human were haunted by the aliens, only a little group of humans were hiding in a cave, trying to survive. The main character Melanie, was possessed, but the host's soul was very strong, it's still inside the body, the alien would fight for spaces in the brain. Melanie was a member of that group of human that were alive. After communicate, they decided to go back and find the group of people. After a series of incidents, it would challenging the friendship, love, trust. It's really exciting, after reading book you would realise that the real friendship can not be destroyed. I recommend this book to everyone that's age between 12-17, enjoy!Over 8 years agolaurak added a book review.
This is a very touching book, if you are an emotional person, then you will end up with tears! This book is basically about a woman named Holly and her husband Gerry, they were perfect for each other, they thought they would never leave each other alone, until one day, Gerry was diagnosed a disease that can not be healed and soon died. Holly couldn't be able to pick her broken heart, because it all came so sudden, so unexpectedly. But one day, she found a few letters that her husband left before he died, those letters helped her to get out of grief, and learn to love herself, discover a whole new world without him and after those letters, Gerry would leave "P.S. I love you". I love this book because it's so sweet, and I hope I would meet a guy that would love me so much even after he died, I feel very touched after reading it, I recommend this book to everyone, enjoy!Over 8 years agolaurak's book review was featured in A Walk to Remember (Random House Large Print (Cloth/Paper)).
This book is one of my favourite of Nicholas Sparks, if you are a fan of love stories, then you would definitely love this book. This story is talking about a girl named Jamie that is not popular at school, but very kind, she sings well, she would sing for the church, but wear the same sweater everyday. A boy named Landon, which was in the popular group, he looked down at Jamie at first, until one day, he found out that he is different, although he couldn't believe at first, but he fell in love with Jamie, and Jamie incurably fell in love with him too. Landon went from mean, vicious, to nice, good kid, everyone was shocked. When everything was going well, Landon found out that Jamie had a terminal disease that can not be healed, and didn't have much time. Instead of leaving her, Landon decided to stay by her side, marry her, take care of her for rest of her life. This book taught me that, every demon has an angel living inside, no matter how bad you are, there will always be a silver lining, you just have to try. This book would bring you tears, and warmth, I would recommend this book to everyone that's interested in love stories, enjoy!Over 8 years agolaurak added a book review.

This is a intense, emotional, yet romantic story. The main character Sophia, was a normal college girl that was focusing, trying hard for her career, she had a really bright future in front of her. One night, she was pushed to watch a bull riding game During that game, Sophia finds out that her sight can't leave a cowboy named Luke. After the game, they somehow started chatting with each other, and had some chemistry. This encounter led to the first date, second date and so on. After those lovely dates, Sophia found out the tragically path of Luke's, he got seriously injured once. Sophia feared that it would happen again and she doesn't want to lose him, so she told him not to bull ride anymore, this became the conflict between Sophia and Luke. I really like this story because it talked about the concerns for love that will happen in real life, and also it's so romantic, very addicting. I also learnt that love never dies from that old couple that had also been in the background of the story. I recommend this book to everyone, no matter what you should give it a try! Enjoy :)Almost 9 years ago
