Hey.  I finished butter over the weekend and i really liked it. I don’t know how far you are but i thought it was really good toward the middle and the end. I almost cried in a few parts because it kinda makes you feel bad for him and want to help him.  I don’t really know who my favorite character was but if i had to pick it would probably be the professor because it seems like hes always there for butter and kinda watching over him when he doesn’t know it. I don’t know if you have read it but i was kinda surprised about how Anna reacted when butter told her who he was and it was kinda cool how he told her.

The next book i’m gonna be reading is drums girls and dangerous pie. I think i’m gonna like this book and i’m gonna read this one kinda fast as well. I’m gonna start today and ill probably post again by Saturday.

(I don’t know if you saw my last post and my finishing thoughts on wonder but i put it as a comment on my last one.)

So i’m actually really do like this book a lot. I’ve been trying to find more time to read and I’ve been staying up late after practice and homework to read a little each night. I’m just about done with the book. Im only have about 20 pages left and i’m planning on finishing it tonight.

At first i was a little confused about how the book went but now its actually pretty cool how they all have a chance to explain there part and how they feel about august. I was pretty sad in the first part were august explained how people would look at him and he had to learn to ignore people and not let it make him sad. I also really liked how the chapters weren’t full long chapter and they were perfect cause i usually only have a few minutes to read or i just wanna read a little so its nice to have short separated chapters. I also really liked vias part but i also thought it was sad how she felt like she needed to protect her brother and stop them from hurting him. How did you feel about the book?

Im gonna be reading butter next and im planning to read this one alot faster and i had started it a few weeks ago so im about 40 pages in and already really liked it and im excited to get to finish it.  i think im really gonna like this one!

let me know what you think about the books

I started reading Wonder and so far its pretty good. In the beginning i wasn’t in to it but its getting better as i get farther in. A lot of  my friends have said they read it and said it was really good toward the middle and end and a couple people told me they even cried so i’m kinda excited cause i like books that can make me cry so i’m gonna keep reading and see if  i like it .

If you read wonder first let me know what you think about it. I have a lot of things after school so i’m trying to find as much time as possible to read but its kinda hard cause i’m a cheerleader and we practice a lot. I’m 13 and gonna be 14 next year in January. I also like to play basketball and i have two brothers who play football so we watch a lot of NFL football games and are at our games all Saturday.  I have two pet dogs and i love animals.  

let me know what you think of the book so far or if you’ve started it and about where you are in the book so i can try to keeps up because i’m not a very fast reader but i’m excited to read it.
