My favorite book is The Hunger Games by Suzane Collins. I love this book because every page you turn there is a new twist. I also love how it takes place in the future it just make you think about how diffrent it is from now. Just thinking about that makes me drawn to the book.
I enjoy reading historical fiction because it makes you think about some things that could really happen back then. Like a book I have read recently Shades of Gray. This book was about the horrors off the holocaust. It focused on a certain girl's family, Lina. Lina's family wasn't even Jewish. There was so many intresting parts to this book, but in the end it really made me become so thankful for having parents, having a sister, and being healthy, and having food and a roof over my head. Just reading about what happened or could have happened in the past intrigues me.
A book I have recently finished is Delirium by Lauren Oliver. This book is one of my all time favorites. It reminds me of the hunger games a little. It took place in the future and in the future love was forbidden. It was viewed as a disease also known as deliria. Being sympathetic was also viewed as a disease and if anyone would show sympathy they were known as sympathizer. They had found a cure for love, it was a procedure everyone at the age of eighteen was given. Everyone was paired up with a husband and there future was basically planned for everyone by people who work for the government. It was illegal to play certain music. They called people who did not have the procedure to remove the love from you. They would call people who ran away from the government and lived out in the woods hidden from the government and border control, the wilds. These people went without the government and believed in love. The main character, Lina, wanted a normal life living under government rules after having here mother killing herself at the age of six. The professionals say it was deliria and because of love. Ever since then she just wanted a normal life. Then when she was seventeen she feel in love with a boy name Alex, from the wilds. She and him feel in love and planned to escape to the wilds together once Lina found out her mother never died and was imprisoned for her belief in love. Days before the runaway they were caught and Hannah was held by here own will and tied up waiting to get the cure for deliria(procedure done). Alex was caught and Lina got away having to leave him behind.
