Book Talk

Bounce by Natasha Friend


Evyn's had enough problams in her, sstaring with her life, starting with her mother's death when she was young. But now her father is marrying  a woman Evyn hardly knows, and forcing Evyn and her brother to go live with this woman...and her six children. Evyn wants her old life, her old friends, her old house.
I am not done reading this book yet, but so far I think that it is an okay book. I have read two other of Nataha Friend's books before. She writes about mostly teenage girls and what they struggle with in there "teen" years.



Discussion Question: If you were foced to move in with complete strangers and know that you wouldn't be happy what would you do? Why?

Hello Summer!


Summer is almost here!!! Summer is my favorite season, the warm weather and beautiful sunsets, though it never lasts. The long days and never having to worry about homework. Being able to go to the beach. My favorite thing to do in the summer is going to the beach. My family goes on a trip to Maine every year. Another of my favorite things to do is have fires at my house. Summer is definatly the best time of the year, wearing flip flops and having glowsticks on late nights.

What is your favorite season and what do you like to do durring that season?
