The Fault in Our Stars by John Green
45 Minutes

I'm so sad and happy how The Fault in Our Stars ended! I'm sad because (spoiler alert) Gus dies! Why did he have to get his cancer back?! I'm so mad at John Green for making Gus die! But if he didn't die the book wouldn't have been so amazing! I'm also happy because the book was so amazing it had me crying. I'm also happy because Hazel and Gus's relationship is so perfect. It's so perfect that even once Gus died they were still so close. I am very happy with the way John Green wrote this book and I am planning to read all his other books too.

I am writing my review about the book The Fault in our Stars. I think the book is amazing! I love how a guy wrote a book from a girls' perspective. I think it's incredible how John Green could understand how a girl feels about love and put it into words. But about the book, The Fault in our Stars is about two teenage cancer patients, Hazel Grace and Augustus Waters, who fall in love. Augustus found a way to e-mail Hazel's favorite author of all time who said he wants to meet them in person and talk. So Augustus and Hazel fly to Amsterdam to meet him. Once they get to his house they notice he is drunk but ask him about the book anyways. But he gets very mad that they ask so many questions and is very rude towards them. After they visit and fly back home, Augustus gets really sick from more cancer.

This is how far I have gotten in the book and this is all I know. I hope to write another report about The Fault in our Stars again.

When Asia Was the World blogged by Brittany C.

I've been reading When Asia Was the World by Stewart Gordon. I've read it for 3 hours. 

In one chapter, it was all about Xaunzang, who became a Buddhist monk. In this chapter, it was a combination of his story and about Buddhism. At the beginning, he and his brother ran to a rumored place that did not end up how they wanted it to, so they went to another area in China. Xuanzang learned from his brother about Buddhism. He started going to a monastery and then became a true Buddhist monk. He left the monastery in China to travel to learn more about the religion and to become enlightened. He then went against the government to travel and became sacred after he refused a deal and gave up eating. He got special treatment and was known as a "notable teacher" wherever he traveled. When he wanted to go back to his homeland, he wrote a letter to the emperor apologizing and summarized his trip. He was forgiven and returned to China. 

Two books blogged by Jayiera M.

I read 5 more hours. The first 3 hours was when I was reading Dork Diaries: Tales from a Not so Talented Pop-star. The Halloween dance is over, and Nikki is on her crush Brandon’s radar.  Mean girl Mackenzie is someone that she can contend with.  And now, the next bit of drama begins. Bugs are invading the school, and Nikki is afraid people will learn the truth – that she’s a scholarship student. Her father arranged the scholarship because he’s the school’s exterminator.  As Nikki meddles so the truth won’t come out, she thinks she’s lost the scholarship and has to pay a huge tuition bill!  Her solution…. to enter the school’s talent contest. One of the prizes is a scholarship to the school. But mean girl Mackenzie doesn’t want Nikki to succeed and tries to block her in every way. 

The last 2 hours I was reading Amelia Hits The Road. Amelia documents her travels all around the US. She talked about how annoying her sister is and how cool some of the attractions are.
