i love to read

I have always loved to read, but since i have gotten my iphone 4 (which is totally amazing and i will never go back to a regular phone) i have been reading book like nobody's business.There is this app on it called i book, so you can read on it. amazing. This is what i have ready since july (when i got my phone.) so i decided to rate the ones i have read.

1. Sh*t my dad says:

3.5/5
It was pretty enjoyable, but it is just what the title is. Stuff his dad says, so there isn't really a story line, but it was pretty funny

2. World Without End

4/5
I didnt think it was as good as Pillars of the earth, but still good


3. The Help

4.5/5
Loved it but i wished they did an epilogue or something, i kinda felt like it just ended

4. The Hunger Games

5/5
i


5. Catching Fire

5/5
love


6. Mockingjay

5/5
these


7.The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo

3.5/5
I dont know what the big deal is with the book. it was good, yea, but the beginning was slow and honestly i only cared about the murder mystery and that is it. so when they kept on talking about the journalist and the magazine and all that jazz, i did not care. So i didnt enjoy the whole book.. and some parts were disturbing


8. The Anatomy of Peace

5/5
everyone should read this book


9. The Giver

4/5
looooved it, but same thing with the ending, there should have been like an epilogue or something


10. The Time Travelers Wife

3.75/5
I enjoyed it, but its not really a must read


11. Dear John

4/5
Way better than the movie


12. Marley & Me

5/5
Made me love my dog 10x more!


13. A Thousand Splendid Suns

4/5
I liked it more than kite runner


14. The Last Song

3.5/5
The book wasnt bad, but i kept on picturing miley cyrus as the main girl, and i hate her, so i couldnt enjoy the book!


15. Ender's Game

4.5/5
loved it

16. Freedom

3/5
I do not understand why its on oprahs bookclub list

And i am currently reading:

Fall of Giants


Im only about a quarter of the way through but so far it is pretty good and i will keep you updated!


FOR OTHER BOOKWORMS:
My sister told me about this website that is like a virtual bookcase. You go on it and make a profile and on your book case you put books that you have read, are reading, and are going to read. Then you can rate the book and review them yourself and then you can find your friends on the website and look on their shelf and see what books they have read and if they thought they were good and then you can read them yourself. Anyways i love it and its a good way to keep track of the books you have read and how you felt about them. You can even put it on your blog (which i have) anyways its call shelfari.com and i hope that if you get one you become my friend!
