I know that reading has to be the best thing since, well... friendship, but what
is there to read? I personally go for sci-fi or fantasies, but I also like other
types of books too. Here are a few of my favorites and a short plot summary for
each:
Sabriel by Garth Nix.
This fantasy story is about a girl who must become the Abhoresen after her
father's disappearance into death. An Abhorsen is a necromancer who, instead of
raising the dead, puts them to sleep. If you like this book, read the sequels Lireal and
Abhoresen.
Go Ask Alice, Anonymous.
This book is about a druggie in the 1960's. When I first got it I thought it
would be awful since it was short and written as a diary, but this book chilled
me. It really shows the horror of drugs.
The Pack, Elisa Carbone. When Akhil moves to town, everyone finds him strange and frightening. Why is he
so scared and why does he refuse to sit in a chair? When Omar and Becky befriend
him, they find out his strange and entrancing secret.
Blood and Chocolate, Annette Curtis Klause.
When Vivean, a teenage werewolf, falls in love with a "Meat-boy", her pack isn't
happy; especially The Five.
Dracula, by Bram Stoker.
This classic vampire tale is a story of horror, love, and intrigue. Numerous
movies and even a ballet have been based on this book. This is definitely a good
book.
And this is Molabie, signing off!
