The Adoration of Jenna Fox

Thanks, Enilee, again for sharing a book you love for my birthday. You are awesome. :D

I received this book as a birthday present from my friend, and I'm glad she let me read the book. It's a very interesting world. Interesting and frustrating.

I stayed up late reading this book many nights in a row. Probably a bad idea for my brain, but oh well.

This is a story about a girl trying to find herself. It's a little more complicated then that, but that's what it is in one sentence.

I haven't read many Sci-Fi's, but this one is good. The future world of earth was more believable to me then the world of Uglies, which I still haven't finished reading. Not sure why but, that's not important here.

A theme of this book is, what is humanity really? It's a question that hovers on every page. Are we human because of our choices, or because we have five finger and toes on each limb?

There was also a lot environmental stuff in this, and it made me wonder if the author is some form of tree-hugger. But it was still interesting to think about.

And, Enilee, I didn't cry. I didn't even feel tempted, sorry. I guess I just have a different button then you. :) Or I just wasn't in the mood for crying.

That's all, does this even help? I think I just spit out random facts.

  1. Heh. That's alright if you didn't cry. I did just because of some of the things Jenna says at the end, about snow and children (trying to avoid spoilers).

    Great review!

  2. The end was good, I finished it a 2:00 in the morning, so I was kind of tired.

Library Memorial

^I made this sign. :) A year from today, my public library closed down because of lack of funds. So we had a rally/funeral/memorial service for our library today. A group of people and kids march down our downtown area and up to the courthouse front steps. Reporters from the local news, radio and paper were there. The newspaper that was doing the story could send out a photographer, so I got to be the "photographer" I took pictures and I read a poem I wrote about the library closing. So I might appear on the local news, which is weird and cool at the same time. And here's the poem I wrote: Destruction of a Library World of Words, Their time is ending. On the shelves they sigh a bitter sigh. Why should people cry? Only words on paper Behind brick walls Why do I sigh, This humble cry? Why do the words mean so much to me? How can people not feel what I feel? About an old building that smells like old paste That binds together beautiful words In the arms of ancient paper Old

Today = A Week

Well, it's the 7th of December. So I guess this would be an exact week since my last post. Nothing much to say, I'm working a little on one of my new ideas for a story. It's an interesting tale, but I'm not comfortable telling it just now, so you'll just have to wait. ;) I'm thinking about making gifts for Christmas. Don't know what I'm going to make though.

A new book

Today I bought The Host by Stephenie Meyer . Me and my mom bought it together, it was 25% off at Fred Meyer. I'll be reading it soon, and I'll tell how I like it.
