My favorite books

I know the summer is over, but some of the books i read this summer, you should really pick up and read if you can. These books are all really good reads, but best of all, they keep you wanting to read them all day. I am not a big reader, (or fast one), but I finished these three books quicker than i could ever imagine myself doing.

#1: The Giver, by Lois Lowry

This was the first book I read this summer, and I really liked it a LOT. This book kept my attention the whole way through, which is impressive because when it comes to books I am easily distracted. This book is about a boy named Jonas who lives in a strange world where there is no color and when you are twelve you are assigned a job for the rest of your life. Jonas is assigned the job of "The receiver of memory." The old receiver of memory transfers good and bad memories into Jonas's body. I will not spoil anymore. Also if you are interested, there is a movie coming out soon.

#2: The Fault In Our Stars, by John Green

This book literally made my cry. Literally. I am sure you have heard of it, or seen the movie. It is a really sad-yet funny and really enjoyable summer read. It is about a girl named Hazel Grace who has cancer. One day she meets a boy named Augustus Waters. They fall in love and live lots of fun and happy moments together. I won't tell you anything else. I promise.

#3: Hyperbole And a Half, by Allie Brosh

After I read this book I immediately fell in love with Allie Brosh! She is hilarious!!! Her book is super funny and really cool to read. It is half graphic novel, half regular novel. It is a collection of just really funny events from her life. From geese, to hot sauce, to toy-talking parrots, this book will make you cry because of how humorous it is.
