You were Here. (5 out of 5 stars!!!!!)

I received a reviewers copy of this book from NetGalley. Thank you to Sourcebooks Fire and Cori McCarthy.


You were here is about a girl named Jaycee Strangelove, who has been mourning her brothers tragic death for five years. Every year on the anniversary of her brothers death, she visits one of his favorite places to hang out and relives everything he might have done while he was there. Jaycee is joined one year by an old friend Natalie and her two friends, who decide that its time for Jaycee to let her brother go. They go around Ohio on an adventure to visit every place Jaycee's brother visited.


I gave this book a five out of five stars, and I honestly can't stop telling people about how much I love this book. This book is told in the point of each character. What I think is super cool is that one of the characters is a selective mute, so his chapters are in graphic form. The art in this is fantastic, as well as the ideas and character development. Each character has thier own inner struggles. Every reader can relate to at least one character in this book. Especially seniors in high school, who are either excited to go away, or scared for everything to change. You need to read this book. As soon as it comes out. Like right now.

Unfortunatley this book will not be released until March of 2016, I will be putting up a review on my youtube channel when the release date comes closer.

Thank you guys for reading another one of my reviews, and I will see you guys later!

Anti-Bullying Read-a-thon wrap up!

Hello everyone! Usually I would make a video about this, but my camera somehow deleted my footage, so I decided to just make a post about it. For the Anti-Bullying Read-a-thon that happened this past week, I read 3 out of the 4 books that I had planned to read.



The first book I read was Simon vs. the Homosapiens Agenda by Becky Allbertalli

This book is about a boy named Simon who is black mailed by a classmate. When this classmate outs him, Simon has to go through the struggles of being a teenager, as well as being tormented for his coming out that was not even his own. I gave this book a four out of five stars because it was a great read, with a lot of feeling and suspense. 

The next book I read was Smile by Raina Telgemeier

This book is about a 10 year old girl named Raina, who has an accident that knocks out her front teeth, causing her to go through countless corrective measures, all while growing up, finding herself, and dealing with a hoard of  bullies pretending to be friends. I gave this book a four out of five stars because it is a great story with great art, as well as very helpful for teens growing up and finding themselves.

The final book I read was Wonder by R. J. Palacio

This is a book about Auggie, a ten year old boy with a face deformity. The story follows Auggie adjusting to his new school, Unfortunately people aren't so kind to Auggie. I gave this book a four out of five stars because it is a wonderful story about accepting people and not being quick to judge people by their features. Definatley something that every young/ middle grade child should read. (In my opinion it should be taught in schools)

Thank you guys for reading another one of my reviews, and I will see you soon with more!

Will Grayson, Will Grayson (4 out of 5)

Will Grayson, Will Grayson
John Green & David Levithan


                            Will Grayson, Will Grayson, is about two boys, both named Will Grayson, and how their stories intertwine. WG1 hides his feelings, with an attitude of "Shut up and don't care" his best friend is the flamboyant Tiny Cooper, who falls in and out of love faster than Taylor Swift. While Tiny is organizing a musical about his life, WG1 meets Jane, a punk rock princess who likes underground bands and memorizes peoples locker combinations. WG1 really likes Jane, but doesn't know how to express it.

                              WG2 is a closeted gay boy who lives about 30 mins away, has a depressing best friend who only brings him down, a mom who is severely lonely, an online boyfriend, and a severe case of depression. WG2 goes to Chicago to meet his boyfriend, but ends up meeting the other Will Grayson instead


                             This book is only classified as an LGBT+ book because it has gay characters, which i think is kind of dumb. It's not really about being gay as it is about accepting yourself and learning to trust and love other people. But nonetheless, this book is great. The character development is absolutely amazing, and the plot is so full of ups and downs it keeps you on the edge of your seat. I give this book a 4 out of 5 stars, because it wasn't so good it became a favorite, but it was very good.


                           Thank you for reading another one of my reviews. If you have read this book and would like to hear my thoughts on it, check out my book talk on this book on my you tube channel. I'll see you guys soon with another review!
