#SummerOfSpells Update: Days 1-3

June 4, 2014

Hey guys, here is my update for days 1-3.

So far I have read Harry Potter and the Philosophers Stone (book one). It was soooooo amazing. That took me days 1&2 to read and finish.

Tonight (day 3) I want to read the first 2 chapters of Harry potter and the chamber of secrets (book 2). I have had a few tests at school today so I couldn’t read anything yet.

So far I think I’m doing very well as I have already finished 1/7 books.

Also I just heard from a host of this read along and they said that there extending this read along from June 1- August 30 instead of June 1- June 30! So now it’s officially the whole summer!

Alyssa’s Reviews – The Fault in Our Stars by John Green

June 2, 2014

Hey guys!

Today I am going to be reviewing the book “The Fault in Our Stars” by John Green in honor of the movie coming out in 5 days!

Plot: With a tumor-shrinking miracle Hazel has gained a few more years. But with those years come boredom and reading here favourite book over again “An Imperial Affliction”. Being forced by her parents hazel joins a cancer support group just to meet “friends” though, hazel meets more than just a friend. She meets Augustus Waters. Before she knows it, Augustus is sweeping her away to her dream life of being normal (teen love).

Characters: The main characters in this story are Hazel Grace Lancaster, Augustus Waters and Peter Van Houghten. Hazel Grace is our protagonist, she has a tumour in her lounges which makes it hard for her to breath. She has short brown hair and is an easy loving character. Augustus Waters is the cute boy Hazel meets in support group. He is her soon to be lover and is a big reader as well. Peter Van Houghten is the author of Hazel’s favourite book “An Imperial Infliction”. He plays a big role in this book, but I don’t want to give anything away!

Favourite Part:
My favourite part of this book was when Augustus took Hazel out for dinner in Amstredam. This is when Augustus tells Hazel that he really loved her and wants to be with her for as long as he can.

My thoughts/recommendation:
I gave this book a 5/5 stars on GoodReads! This is one of my favourite books and will always be. It was just as romantic as it needed to be without being to cheesy. It was a beautiful story that I would recommend to just about anyone.

I hope to read the rest of John Greens books sometime soon.

That’s it for tonight’s post!
