Fault in our stars review
I prefer books over the movies I have lately just reading the book "fault in our stars" and have just not long finished watching he movie the book was very different to the movie not really the way it was set up but the way I pictured it in my head I really think that it was cool to be able to read this book it was one of those books when u can picture the whole story in your head.
Why I like reading
Hi! I'm Alyssa. Today i'm going to share with you why I like reading.
I like reading because it helps me get some ideas for my story writing. It also helps me learn new words and helps me with my imagination. I think reading is a wonderful way to make your stories more creative and interesting. It can be really relaxing and it takes you away to a whole new world of reading.

Review: Kamandi, The Last Boy on Earth
Kamandi, The Last Boy on Earth by Jack Kirby
This a book that offers a Blatant rip off of Planet of the apes and paper thin characters. Yet, I haven't read anything this alive with energy in some time. Here, Kirby has appropriated a second rate idea and turned it into something full of life and creativity. As always, his art jumps off the page and to be honest, makes much of the mainstream art seen today seem very sedate and stale. The stories my lack sophistication but make up for it with no stop action. If you like adventure, talking lions, giant animals and crazy post apocalyptic worlds be sure to check out Kamandi, The Last Boy on Earth.

Funniest Books Ever!!!!!!!!!!
Hey, I'm Lucille and I'm about to talk about the most funny books I have come across. Personally I think any books by Andy Griffiths are the best!!!.First of all there are the Just... series such as Just Crazy,Just annoying,Just Disgusting and many more.There is also The 13 story tree house and others in that series.I have also come across the Pencil of doom I have not read that yet but I would like to it seems very funny.
Funniest Books In The Universe #1
There are few books funnier than U.F.O:Unavoidable.Family.Outing by Dave Hackett. This book is so funny that if it was made into a movie, I wouldn't be surprised if people came out of the movie theatre with stained pants because they wet themselves from laughing too hard. The book is about a family of five who take a road trip from Sydney all the way to Cape York in Australia. But everything goes hilariously wrong when the eldest girl, Jessica, thinks her boyfriend, BRAD, has been kidnapped after she receives a ransom note on her phone, and the car breaks down after the dad puts an apple pie in the engine and left it to cook. But the funniest part is when the family had to wait two or three days at a gas station that was only open on Tuesdays and Thursdays. Comedy Gold written on 241 pages!
Movie vs Book
Hey, my name is Xanthe; I am going to review the book compared to the movie. Today I will be focusing on The Mortal Instruments- City Of Bones. I loved the book so much and I am currently reading the second book, City Of Ashes. After finishing the first book I jumped on the computer and watched the movie... I was very disappointed with the movie because it missed so much like: Important information that makes parts of it make sense. I thought that the filming was amazing and the actors and actresses fitted well but it wasn't very well written. I was ecstatic when I heard they were re-creating it as a TV program, so i now have very high expectations about it.
About the book: As I read it, my heart couldn't stop pounding, from the time I started to the time I finished I was always on the edge of my seat. It was very well paced and had amazing detail. If there was one thing that could be improved about the book I would say the ending, it did end well but I feel like it finished much to early.
About the movie: When I was watching the movie I thought to myself that the people playing the parts did an amazing job at being the character they were meant to be, I also think that some of the senses they did were very well done; one of my favourites would have to have been the midnight greenhouse picnic with Jace and Clary. That was well shot and well acted, they were able to take the mood from in the book and put on a screen so i congratulate them. But, I could always point out something wrong with it, Either it was missing some important dialogue or an entire scene. This for me is the reason why the movie was one of the worst adaptations of a book I have ever seen.
All in all I think that is was an amazing book but a pretty average movie. There will be more of these including books like: Divergent, The Hunger Games, The Fault In Our Stars, and The Maze Runner.
