If You Find Me

By Kristen

Well...Let's just say...I've been lazy and not wanting to go onto my computer and well I'm doing it now so....

If You Find Me

Loved it.  So much.  Even though I think there should be another book, like a sequel, but who knows.  Maybe Emily Murdoch is writing another novel.  I would definitely read it, no questions asked.  Reaction to this: EEPPPP CARRIE AND RYANNNNN.  I wish I could tell how they met and all but then that would freaking spoil it :| cuz he's a big part of the second half of the book.  Delaney is a !#$%& but it all gets better in the end.

I mean they become friends and all...And then Carrie and her sister, Janessa (don't worry this won't give anything away) live in a camper in the middle of the woods, but that changes in the first chapter, lucky, kind of for them.

It's like living out of civilization for years and years ant then moving back to society: high school, people, shopping and other stuff like that.  So Read this Book!!!!!!!!!!





The Mortal Instruments: City of Bones comes out in August! So excited! Divergent is being filmed!!! TFiOS Is gonna be a movieeeeeeeeee!

Marked

By Kristen

I forgot about yesterday...WHOOPS! But here I am now!


Marked

So first off, my mom said I couldn't read this.  But there was absolutely nothing wrong with it at all!  It was amazingly good and like probably made my top 10.  I started reading it in November I think and I finished it last month!  I think it was just because I thought it was a little boring in the beginning but it got better and better and better.


Some parts were funny, like the whole Heath situation, and some were cut, like when she first met Erik Night.  It's basically about a girl who's marked by he goddess, Nyx (and trust me when I say that I'm not giving much away) and has reluctant and annoying parents who don't want her to go to the House of Night.  One thing, her mark is different and causes all people to stare.


She meets a really nice person, Stevie Rae (I think that's how you spell it; I forget) and Damien and the twins, Erin and Shaunee (I cant remember how to spell anything.  Sorry) and gets off on the wrong foot with some other girl.  It's just like high school, but in a school full of vampyres.  Sooooooo I really think you should read this if you haven't already.  Now I just have to somehow get my hands on the second book!

Look at this thing I found:

I thought it was pretty funny xP

Unremembered

by Nora
(By the way, sorry about the lack of posts. We are really busy with school!)

Can I start by talking about how lovely this cover is? It's just...perfection. I love how the face in the background is blurry, just like Sera's memory. Out of focus and fuzzy. Also, the eyes! I really like that they made the eyes purple (Violet ;)) to go along with the actual description of Seraphina.

Unremembered follows sixteen-year-old Seraphina (a.k.a. Violet) as she tries to regain her memory after obtaining a serious case of amnesia when she was found at the scene of a plane wreck. Every little piece of new information made my brain want to explode.

I absolutely loved the characters. My favorite was Cody, Sera's younger foster brother. He was just hilarious and reminded me (almost too much) of my friends at school. Nerdy, sarcastic, and adorable. For once, I wasn't so attached to Zen (the romantic interest of Seraphina) that I was super upset when the book was over. I guess that's a good thing. Good for my well-being, anyway. :)

The end of the book was just...what.

what what what what what what what what
(no, this is not a Macklemore reference)

I can't really tell you why I'm like this because I would spoil a lot for you (and I hate writing posts with spoilers), so all I can say is go read the book. I don't like leaving you hanging like that, but...just read it, okay?

Send Me a Sign

By Nora

Cancer, cancer, cancer. I just can't seem to get enough of it, what with this and The Fault in Our Stars. I had, actually read this before The Fault in Our Stars. Anyway, after hearing Tiffany Schmidt read a short passage from Send Me a Sign at the New York City Teen Author Festival, I knew I was hooked. I just needed to get it.

Send Me a Sign is beautiful. It is surprising. It is just...amazing. The main character, Mia, and her best friend, Gyver, grabbed my attention from the start. I'm not sure why, perhaps how close they are to each other. BUT THE END. I DIDN'T EVEN...WHAT??? HOW DID I NOT NOTICE THAT??? HDGAHSDKFJHASLDKFHLAKJSDF (Yes, Mom. That means I'm freaking out, not that my keyboard broke)

When Mia is diagnosed with leukemia, she decides to keep it a secret from her friends. I mean, I see why she tried to hide it, but if I were Mia (which I'm not. I'm really, really not. She's completely different from me), I would have told my friends first thing. Meh. But I still loved the book.

Anyway, I'm really looking forward to reading more Tiffany Schmidt in the future. She has gotten my attention. I'll be waiting.

Requiem

By Kristen

**HUGE SPOILERS FOR PANDEMONIUM AND, BASICALLY, THE FIRST TWO BOOKS**

MY STRIKE IS OVER!!!!!!!!!  I'm wondering how Nora's three posts were.  I should explain why I was striking sooo here it goes: Nora was "busy" like three weeks ago and did no posting when she was supposed to :P So I promised her that I would not post until she did the three she owed me.  And she did, eventually, x) so every thing's all good now.

Requiem

 

 

 

Ohmigod, Lena.  Honestly, I wish Lauren Oliver continued from where she left off in Pandemonium, but as I read, I decided against that.  BECAUSE IN PANDEMONIUM, AT THE END LENA FINDS OUT THAT ALEX IS NOT DEAD AT ALL.  And then she's all caught up with Julian (I mean, I don't hate him, but still.  Lena and Alex are so perfect together and I'm dying to see the show!  And that had NOTHING to do with Lena and Alex being the perfect couple.)

 

But then there's like so much tension between Lena and Alex and Alex and Julian and Oh My Goshness.  It so sad when Lena goes up and scare a bear away and Alex is all like "Oh, the Lena I know would be scared" and then he . Just.Walks.Away.From.Her.  And then there's Coral and something she says to Lena about Alex (Don't worry, it's not a bad thing!)  And then now, moving on so...

 

I read this book like a month before it came out (thanks to Nora getting the ARE, Advanced Reader's Edition, which is not fair to some people but her mom works for Random House).  I heard that they were changing the ending and I think Nora said the only thing they changed is Julian is shirtless or something like that...  BUT THE ENDING.  I WAS SO happy on page 248 (I'm pretty sure, and yes, I am aware that I remembered the page number) because I can't say so asdghjkawdgnkihl that's as close as it's going to get! #TEAMALEX

Eleanor & Park

By Nora

Eleanor & Park was amazing. Like, finish in three days, amazing. At first, I was kind of annoyed by Eleanor.

"I'm so fat and life is awful and blah blah blah"

But as the story moved along, I began to love her. The unfortunate situation with her family made me sympathize for her like crazy. And then there was Park. When I brought Eleanor & Park to
school, two of my K-Pop-obsessed friends wondered if there was any reference to J-Park (a K-Pop star that they love). I told them no, except that he was half Korean. Besides, the book is set in the 80's. Where am I going with this? Blah.

Anyway, the two really captured my heart and I couldn't put the book down. The perfect ratio of sadness and humor was quite astonishing and the music references were just splendid (Did I just say 'splendid'?).

Why do all stand-alone books have to have sad endings? I mean, come on! After reading The Fault in Our Stars (which was too depressing to even think about before bursting into tears), I was really hoping that this would be a happy, cheerful book. I guess I was wrong.

I may have mentioned (I think I did...maybe not...), an author at the NYC Teen Author Festival came up to me and told me she would mug me for my copy of Eleanor & Park. They had sold out. But now I see why. I'd probably do that, too. :)

The Fault in Our Stars

by Nora

Well. I need to fully compose myself before writing this post or else I will cry. Again.


Honestly, going in I had no idea that The Fault in Our Stars was (I'm not going to call it a cancer book, because of something mentioned in the book itself) a book with a cancer component. Prior to reading The Fault in Our Stars, I read Send Me a Sign, another book with cancer (What? A book with cancer? No. A book about cancer. -.-) and I was just about done with cancer by then. And now I'm saying cancer way too much. I'm sorry. This book made me a mess.

John Green is evil. He is 100% evil, and I'm pretty sure that if you read this book, you would agree with me. Okay? Okay. ;) It was pretty funny, actually, because Hazel and Augustus (the two main characters) were brought together by a book, written by whom I consider their favorite author. I was actually reading this as I was about to meet one of my favorite authors, Lauren Oliver (what? I know! Post to come).

So, if you would like a good cry, read this book. If not, read it anyway. It is extremely worth it. Just don't read it in public. You will cry. It is beautifully written and I'm so upset that it is not in a series. I am looking forward to reading more of John Green in the future.

UnEnchanted

By Kristen

I honestly thought that this was a really cute book and I loved it a lot! I like the idea a lot and how it has to do with fairy tales (because when I was younger, I loved fairy tales and I still do which might be a bit sad) and the grim reaper (is that supposed to be capitalized or not? *Unsure*)

I need inspiration to finish this post.  My dad bought it for me on my tablet and the second book too, Fairest and I sure hope there's a third because I want to know what happens with Mina and if she and Brody ever get back together because in the first book, like, they were together under a fairy tale and in the end their relationship just stops but Brody still has some sort of memory of her but not really if that made any sense...Sorry for spoiling that part ^.^ and then there's Jared and there's a whole other story behind him.....................................................He's the one that tells her about her ancestry about the whole fairy tales chasing the Grime (Really Grim) family (and I'm pretty sure that's the name)

Her mother tried protecting her from the fairy tales and there's something having to do wiht a mirror (but I can't remember if that was in UnEnchanted or Fairest. Sooooo I think I'll stop there.  I really think that you should read this and I know you'll love it!

Abandon

By Kristen


Before I start, I would like to explain why there wasn't a post on Sunday or Tuesday.  Let's just say that Nora was being dumb :P She said "Oh yeah but I didn't have time on Sunday" and I told her "Well ya know what I'm not posting till you do." And then she said she was going to post yesterday but "Oh yeah I was packing for Florida, I didn't have time" Excuses, EXCUSES, excuses. So she's sitting in a car bored and all and I told her, "Fine, I'll post today and tomorrow and next week you will have to post THREE TIMES due to her day being Sunday, last Sunday and it's her turn to do Tuesday.  I'm mad at her.  It's her fault!

Sorry for my rant, but I had to get it out there!


 In one of the first chapters, it said that the main character, Pierce, took the written drivers' test forty something times and failed.  All forty something.  I laughed.  I loved this book so much and I'm waiting to finish a ton of other books first before I can read the second book :| You see, there are at least 10 books that I have to finish beofre the end of the school year, June 25, because ya know, they're not mine...

But back to the point: Abandon is a very good book and I've read so many books in between and I can barely remember what happened.  She died and came back.  Then, she met John (Haha! My brother's name spelled differently!) but I won't give away who he was because it would spoil like the whole book and then there's something with her grandmother... And *sigh* I want to go to the library...





Well, That's a wrap! World Book Night on the 23rd this month is at our school! Nora and I are student readers reading two different titles.  If you are in the area of Foxboro, you should come to our World Book Night starting at 6 pm at the Foxborough Regional Charter School.  This would be the second annual Book Night held at FRCS!

Fever

By Kristen

I've been sitting here for the past 20 minutes trying to think of a book I've read.  And I am still thinking.

--15 Minutes Later--

I'm going to look on Goodreads now...


I finally decided! Doing Fever from the Chemical Garden Trilogy :)

So this is kind of hard for me to remember...I read it what, last month?  Well there's Rhine and Gabriel and Rhine and Vaghn and Linden and Cecily and Grace and Lilac and Maddy and Rhine and Gabriel and KNHSDFJKLGHJKLSDJSDHGJKSDG so many names...

About three quaters through the book I was depressed and sad and crap and NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WHY DID VAUGHN JKGNFSDJKGHJKSGIGSDFJK stupid June Beans and crap... I really should be editing the video for my spanish project right now and I'm just coming up with excuses so I don't have to talk about this book and be depressed all over again..........

*Listening to Mirrors <3* Luv that song

NOOOOOOO RHINEEE WHAT ABOUT GABRIEL WHYYYYYYYYYYYYYYY!!!!!!?!?!??!?!??!??!?!??!!



Breathe* Deep breaths* Calm*

I am dying to read Sever.  READ IT! I said that when I did Wither...

World Book Night is on April 23rd!

Wither

By Kristen

*CONTAINS SOME SPOILERS**

I love this book. Love the idea and everything about it and all that. There's Jenna and Rhine and Gabriel and Jenna and Vaughn (who is possessed in my opinion) and Cicily (I don't think I spelled her name right) and Rhine and jkghjkaefhgseriotuilhgf this is hard.

I am having difficulty remembering this book.  I read it last summer. Rhine is innocent and she's being held captive in a mansion against her will and along with two others.  And her relationship with Rose *sigh* I liked Rose but she died and then there's Gabriel and Rhine and Gabriel and I'm just taking up space repeating words...To me this is like apocalyptic...? I don't know, everyone dies at 20 or 25 depending on gender and I think it's depressing.  But I love Gabriel's and Rhine's relationship (forbidden relationships are always a good factor in books to me) and they escape; I shouldn't have said that but I wanted to put it out there.




Wither definately made my top ten.  I suggest you read it because nhgjkasngjker it's such a good book.   READ IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

***

World Book Night's coming up soon and I should be halfway done with my book.  Nora and I are two of the student readers :) I'm only on chapter three for what I'm reading and I'm not sure about Nora.

Have a great long weekend! Good Friday tomorrow! Have a great Easter, eat some chocolate, become friemds witht the Easter Bunny, and most of all, have fun with your families!

Pandemonium

By Kristen

**CONTAINS SPOILERS FOR DELIRIUM**

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO WHAT ABOUT ALEX?!?!?!?!?!?!??!???  The end (like all of these) was a stupid cliffhanger.  But the thing is it keeps you guessing the possibilities about what could happen.  But I freaked out and found a corner in my room and cried when I read the last page of Pandemonium and I was just so sad.  I mean this whole book we all thought that Alex was dead but THE ENDING OH MY GOD THE FREAKING ENDING nvjkbgbznswghb I can't even say a word about it at all and I just want to but I can't and I think I was depressed for a week after I read it and I OMG I need to calm down.  Calm calm calm.....deep breaths, I'm okay.

Lena and Alex and Julian and Lena and Alex and God this book made me cry.When Nora got the advanced reader's copy of Requiem I yelled at her to give it to me so that I could stop being depressed about the whole trilogy.  THE ENDING OF PANDEMONIUM nhjbvfsdvsdgjkdbf I want to say... I read this last year in seventh grade and finished it during finals and I wanted to scream (but if I did that I would get a zero which would have sucked so bad) and scream...So I cried about it at home instead later on....

I'm done with this rant about the ending, but READ THE TRILOGY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You MUST and I'm pretty sure they started to film it! Whoo! I'm so excited!

Need

By Kristen

Hey everyone!

I know that this post was supposed to be yesterday...but I forgot that it was Thursday.  And then yesterday, I totally forgot when I got home...Nora and I just finished all our finals yesterday for the end of term two and next week is MCAS also.  Crazy, huh? Anyway, I just remembered this morning ...But to the point: I'm writing what  Thursday's  post was today :)

***



Need

When I first saw the title, I was like "What kind of need...?" I really just liked the cover so I grabbed it from the library's shelf and added it to the pile of those thirteen or so other books I wanted to read.  I know people say not to judge a book by its cover...but that's exactly what I did. Eventually, I did read the description and then later on, I flipped to the first page and started to read.  The first thing I noticed was the phobia listed as the chapter's name and as I read, I figured out why Zara, the main character is nervous, she lists phobias...

Anyway, moving on from that. Basically the whole book is about PIXIES VS. WEREWOLVES and when I finished it, I decided that it was a really good book...Notice that random blank spot there^^

Well, when Zara moves to Maine, she meets two people (who are also enemies kind of) named Nick and Ian.  One's a pixie.  One's a werewolf (and aren't werewolf guys supposed to be hot?!).  She's a pixie.  ^.^ I've said too much! Ignore that I said that she's a...nevermind...

By the time I finished this book, I couldn't wait to read the second book, Captivate.  And now, I can't wait to read the third book...But I haven't been to the library since this summer...

Here are the other books in the series: (The order is: Need, Captivate, Entice, Endure)

City of Bones

By Kristen


      I love this book.  LOVELOVELOVELOVE it.  I do realize that reading in third person isn't really my thing (mostly because when reading something in third person, I can't really experience the story as well as I would if it was in first person where you can experience how the character feels).  I read it last summer before school started and then I went to the library to check out some books (and by some I mean 13), City of Bones being one of them.  It was the first book I picked up right when I got home because it had been on my list for a long time.  This is mainly about Shadowhunters and vampires and werewolves and all that fun stuff which really makes this book one that is a MUST-READ so you better drop whatever you're doing and hit your local bookstore and get this book.  Or else.




     I'm just kidding, but if you have not read it yet, you must.  If you have read (sorry for being repetitive; these books appear in almost every post) Fallen, Beautiful Creatures, or Need, then you will absolutely LOVE this book.  I am not lying.  And the movie is coming out soon! Not really.  But there's only 5 months left....unless I miscounted...

Delirium

By Kristen



Have you ever been in a situation where you were forbidden to love?

What if your government chose who you loved?

What would you do?


Deliria.

Lena has always been the goody-goody of her hometown of Portland. She obeys the laws that state that love is a disease and hates it when others don't. It's only when Alex shows up as a cured, Lena's whole life changes.


And...my mouth is shut.  I'm done telling the whole story.

So let me warn you: All of the books is this trilogy will make you want to throw the books across the room. I can tell you this from experience. Nora and I sure did.

***

Before I read this, it was on my To-Read list. And when I finally got to borrow this book (thanks to Nora), I wanted to have a party right then and there. But unfortunately, I was at school and that would be one thing I would regret and be embarrassed about for the rest of my life. But to be honest, I did have a party when I got home. I think my sister thought that I was going crazy.  I'm pretty sure that my family thought I was going crazy (which might be true).  I ignored the fact that I had a ton of homework, sat on the floor in the middle of my room and cracked open the book.  I was instantly hooked (and if you know me, you would know that I absolutely love dystopian books).  I almost cried when I had to go to bed because it's such a good book. Moving on...Alex is so sweet (and I may or may not be mentally married to him like Four and Noah). 

That pretty much sums it up.  Oh yeah, just warning you: the ending is very depressing.

If some of you didn't know, Delirium is being turned into a TV show!  Here's some of the casting news!

I really suggest you read this trilogy! The third book in the trilogy, Requiem comes out the week of  March 8th!!

Oh yeah, and a shout out for Nora:

HAPPY 14TH BIRTHDAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

(Her birthday was actually yesterday, but it doesn't hurt to say it again) :)

Fallen

To be honset, I read this book, Fallen, in two days.  I know it's in third person and I'm not usually into reading books in third person, but this book had me hooked on the first page.  It's the perfect combination of love, reform school and, well, you can read it yourself.  I seriously fan-girled over this book along with one of my friends (and unfortunately, Nora did not read this book yet).  While I was reading this, I stayed holed up in my room and my mom almost took the book away from me and I almost cried because of that.  You see, Luce, the main character, was sent to reform school for being accused of somehow killing someone in a fire.  Did I ever mention, I'm terrible at writing reviews?  But oh well, I'm doing my best.  This books wasn't like one you would throw across the room like for example, The Delirium Trilogy (Lauren Oliver) and Insurgent (Veronica Roth).  But it is one of my favorites.  I really freaked out reading this, especially with the distractions from my brother and sister.  I literally yelled, "SHUT UP, I"M READING!" at them.

So, I think my mom might have yelled at me after that.  She walked into my room at some point and I threw the book onto the floor, I don't even know why I did that...I have my moments...  I was upset when I finished and I wanted to read book two, Torment right away.  Read Fallen this summer and I'm STILL waiting to get a chance to go to the library and actually get the second book, but my library closes really early.  I'm dying to find out what happens next!

I HIGHLY RECOMMEND THIS SERIES!!!!!!!!!!!! READ IT!!  :D

The Evolution of Mara Dyer

Gah. I'm writing this post on Saturday (and, yes, I realize Kristen reviewed the first one on Thursday), even though it will go up on Sunday because I can't control my emotions! Aah! I finished The Evolution of Mara Dyer (Michelle Hodkin) today and...I don't know! I don't even know how I feel. I'm not sure if I feel sad or angry or relieved or what! Well, this morning, while reading in bed and only had about 20 more pages to go, my family comes in and pesters me to get out of bed and get dressed so we could go to the gym (I was at a very dramatic part, mind you). I moaned and groaned and wanted no more than 5 minutes of quiet so I could finish the book, but nooooo. My mom ended up taking the book away. GAAAAHHHH. I lay in my bed for some time, whining like a three year old, until I decided to get dressed and sneak into my parents' room to steal the book back.

I sat on the rocking chair in our living room so I could finish the book, and I regretted my decision. lasdjfoiadhfkjahsdkfhaskdflas It was too much! I slammed the book shut, threw it on a stool, curled up into a ball, and forced myself not to cry. I'm not kidding. This book has that effect. Meanwhile, my sister was watching me have this psychotic reaction. All she said was, "Good book?" Good book? Good book? I wanted to rip my hair out! Of course it was a good book! It was an amazing book! I started it Friday morning and finished it Saturday morning. Only books that are my absolute favorites take me two days (sometimes, even one if I stay up until midnight, which is never).  At the gym, I felt strong. Perhaps it was because of my sudden explosion of emotions. I should read awesome books and go to the gym straight after more. 

The third book, The Retribution of Mara Dyer, comes out in October. IT'S TOO FAR AWAY!!! 

Michelle Hodkin told her blog viewers that there would be no ARCs of Retribution. *sigh* That means no contests or giveaways or going Simon & Schuster and begging for one like small puppy dogs. Aw, man.

So, there you have it. Do I suggest the Mara Dyer series? YES. I recommend it to EVERYBODY!!!

-Nora

The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer

     I do realize that The Unbecoming of Mara Dyer tends to be a bit messed up at some parts, but other than that, it's still a favorite for Nora and I .  Mara doesn't know what has been going on since her best friends, Rachel and Claire, and her boyfriend, Jude, died, she's been trying to figure out the cause.  When she moves to Florida to try to forget the unexpected event, she meets Noah, a British, caring, and handsome teenage boy...did I mention he's BRITISH?  He's there to help her to get over everything that has happened and eventually, they fall in love.  She wants to regain her memory of that night and is trouble by the fact that she keeps on seeing someone showing up everywhere she goes and feels as if he's familiar.  One day, Mara, being fed up by her Spanish teacher, pictures her dying.  She is sitting under a tree on campus when someone comes up to her, telling about the teacher.  Mara rushes to the classroom and finds her Spanish teacher lying on the ground, unconscious and not breathing.  She believes that it is a coincidence that that happened.  At night, she has dreams, more like memories while she is sleeping and waking up feeling as if she did something wrong and she can't remember.  She has these insane hallucinations everyday which don't help her at all.  I don't want to give that much away so I'll wrap it up here (though I'm terrible at not giving stuff away when writing about a book I read...).

     When I first read this I was all like fangirling about it (and so did Nora) and my mom thought there was something wrong with me.  My mom took the book away when I was reading it last year and I WAS FREAKING OUT!  She said she was going to read some of it and I was like, "Uhhhh can I have that back...?"  I cried.  It was such a good book...and I'm still waiting for Nora to let me borrow the second in the trilogy, The Evolution of Mara Dyer.

Well then...here it is:

Kristen: I'm procrastinating, right?
Nora: Yes. Yes you are.

Well...I'll stop now...
It's called....






❤The Divergent Trilogy❤

The so-called perfect society where you have to choose your fate.

Abnegation the selfless.
Amity the peaceful.
Candor the honest.
Erudite the intelligent.
Dauntless the brave.

Beatrice Prior
She has to make a choice at the Choosing Ceremony.  The Choosing Ceremony, where every sixteen year old must choose whether to stay in their current faction or transfer to a new one.  They will have to go through initiation to determine whether or not they become Factionless. In her head she is debating whether to stay with her family or to leave them in the dust.  She chooses Dauntless and sees her mother smiling after she makes her choice.  Chapter six is our second favorite chapter: We would explain why, but we don't want to give that much away...Sorry guys.  Training begins and Tris fights hard to make it past the first stage: fighting.  She doesn't place as well, but Peter, the most annoying, violent and ruthless character becomes angry when he does not place first for stage one, Edward does.  I bet you can guess what happened there...Then comes stage two: Learning to throw knives and shoot guns.  Very Dauntless, eh?  She does not do that great during this stage, but stage three brings her some luck in passing initiation: Simulations and Fear Landscapes.


When I first read this I was honestly hooked.  Nora kept on pressuring me to read it and now I'm so happy that she did.  And since then, I've been reading in my free time.  This is one book I, I mean we, highly suggest that you pick up and read. It is the gateway to our love of reading. :D
