Book Fair Haul

So my brother's school had a book fair last week.  It was buy one get one free so since I thought that it was a good deal, I went to go pick some up.  I was a bit disappointed on the selection that they had because in past years that had wide variety of books.  This is year I only bought two witch was still worth the trip.

The Land of Stories

The author of this book is Chris Colfer, who happens to buy the actor who plays Kurt on the show Glee.  In reality that was the original reason on why I picked up the book in the first place.  From the back cover I know that the story is about two children who somehow wind up in the universe that is in the book that they are reading.  Also this book is the first book of a series.

Miss Peregrine's Home For Peculiar Children

The author of this book is Ransom Riggs.  I have heard of this book before but just never had any interest in reading it.  At the book fair, my mom actually  showed me this book and said that it would be a good book to read.  All the only thing that I know about the book is that it is about a sixteen year-old boy who goes into a abandoned house that used to house kids with special powers or abilities and the boy sees some strange things when he goes into this house.

Collective Book Haul

Divergent

Yes... I know I'm like the only one who hasn't read these books yet.  I haven't even seen the movies either.  I've heard that the book is way better then the movie witch is a shocker, I know.  I have no idea what this book is about besides what is on the back cover.  So if you would like to comment what the book is about feel free.

City of Orphans

I've recently rediscovered this book in the back of my closet.  I know that I started to read it but I guess I just never finished it.  It's about New York in the late 1800's with all the immigrants coming to America for the first time.  The main character that is a newspaper boy that has neighbors that don't speak English and a sister who is in jail because she stole a expensive watch from her job.  It's overall a children's book but a good book nonetheless.

Eleanor and Park

I've recently just got this book so I'e never really heard anything about it.  I know that is about a love story about two kids in high school that is unlike the mainstream relationships.  I think that it is going to be a lovely book to read.

It's Kind Of A Funny Story

I've already read this book so I can tell you that it is worth the read.  This boy, Craig, is a bit depressed to the point of planning to sneak out at night and jump of the Brooklyn Bridge.  Thankfully he does not, and checks himself into a  psychiatric hospital.  During his time there, he meets a wide variety of people with different reasons why they're in there and even gets himself a girlfriend along the way.

An Abundance Of Katherines

I am currently reading this book and from what I can tell it is leading up to my expectations of being a great book.  This guy, Colin, has dated 19 Kathrines.  After the breakup of the 19th Kathrine him and his friend take a road trip, going nowhere in particular, just to get his  mind of things.
