Necklace


Guy de maupassant is the author of this book, the original title of this is called "La Parure". It was published in 1884 in France. The genre of this book is a short story. My rating for this book is 4 although its a short novel or story, the story is very interesting at the beginning its not much interesting at all but when you get to the middle, it gets interesting and very amusing.


The two vocabularies are "Blundered" which means " maka a serious mistake" and the other word was "Artisans" which means "strictly decorative".


The story is about Mr. Loisel and Madame Loisel. Her husband is trying to make her really happy and tried to convince her to go to a high society party, They were poor so they did not have much money and a gown or a dress for the ball, she needed to dress like a rich woman so she would not be embarrassed, so she went to her dear friend, madame Forestier, she is a rich woman and she cared about madame Loisel. Madame Loisel asked her of she could borrow a jewelry to wear for the ball and she a picked a really beautiful necklace covered with diamonds. After the ball she could not find the necklace of madame Forestier and the husband and wife was realyl worried and they did not know hot to pay her back.


I would not want to say anymore because I just gave to much information. It is a really interesting book and I would like you people to read this because it is very intereseting for a short story.


This book is mostly targeted for adults because they would mostly understand the words that are deep, although teenagers could also read it.

New moon

This book is written by Stephenie Myer. Newmoon is an International Best seller. It was published in 2006, New york. The genre of this book is romance, fantasy and action. I would give a perfect rating for this book because it is very enjoyable to read. It is one of my favorite books.

The two vocabularies are "Staggered" which means "to move or stand unsteadily", the other word is " Meadow" which means " a field where grass or alfalfa are grown to be made into hay".

The book is about Bella, Edward and Jacob as I explained in the other book in my Journal. For Bella the most important person in her life is Edward. But being in love with him ( a vampire) is more dangerous than Bella could ever have imagined. After Bella getting chased by bad vampires, there are more problems coming to her. With their relationship there are more troubles and danger. Bella will experience a lot of pain as she go through and the troubles are just the beginning.

The book is targeted for teenagers. When you read the book it is like you are in that book watching them. What they feel is the same way as you feel. When Bella experience pain and agony it is like you feel the same and when she cries you also start to cry. It is like you are Bella for some reason, thats how I felt when I was reading the book and the majority of the people that I know also cried when they read the book and they were miserable for a week because Bella ( a character in the book) was miserable for months. I bet you will cry when you read this book because as you go through it, it has emotional scenes. The other books are Twilight, Eclipse, and Breaking Dawn.

Twilight

Twilight is a best selling in New York. The author of this book is Stephenie Myer. It was published in 2005, New York. The genre of this book is a mixture of romance, fantasy and action. For this book my rating would be a 5 because it is very interesting and it is one of my favorites it has its own originality and somehow, the characters in the book are quite the same in the real world, excluding the vampires and half man half wolf.

The two vocabularies are "Sauntered" which means " a leisurely walk or stroll", the second word is "woozy" which means " dizzy".

Twilight is about a girl named Bella who met this man named Edward Cullen. Edward Cullen is known as the hottest guy in there school and his family is the most gorgeous people in town. What she did not know is that Edward was a vampire although he could not read Bella's mind for some reason. Edward Cullen is very pale and cold. Bella starts to fall in love with Edward and vice versa. They go through a terrible passage of life because all the Cullens are vampires. There is another main character which is Jacob, he is known as Bella's friend, what she doesn't know is that he is different, I won't tell you it is for you to find out. In the book there are some bad vampires who wanted to hunt Bella because her scent for a vampire is like a brand of their heroine and it is up to Edward to save his one and only love with a help from his (Edward) family.


In this book you will find some action, romance and fantasy but mostly its romance and you will be touched and trust me you would fall in love with this book because I did and most of my friends too or should I say all of them fell in love with the book. Twilight is mostly targeted to teenagers but everyone can read it.

The series or other books that are related are New moon, Eclipse and Breaking Dawn.
