Gone Girl

The Bookworm says... ABSOLUTELY POSITIVELY YES! Gone Girl by Gillian Flynn was terrifyingly excellent. Nick and Amy have been married 5 years, happily for the most part. Well, maybe not so happily. On their fifth anniversary, Amy goes missing and Nick is the number one suspect. Nick can be hostile and he's definitely not perfect, but would he murder his wife? This novel was outstanding. The sharp plot twists you never saw coming, the amazing characterization, the literary excellence. The ideas put into this book are unheard of. I've never been so disappointed that a book ended.

"It's a very difficult era in which to be a person, just a real, actual person, instead of a collection of personality traits selected from an endless Automat of characters."

The Infinite Moment of Us

The Bookworm says... Yes. The Infinite Moment of Us by Lauren Myracle was an excellent book. Wren Gray is eighteen years old, but she always does what her parents say. Always. Her parents raised her, and they know what is best for her, right? Wren thought so, until her high school graduation. Her parents decided she is going to the college of their choice. Wren wants to go to Guatemala with the Peace Corps. Then, Charlie Parker comes into her life. Everything Wren wants is right in front of her, but she can't have it all. She has to choose: Charlie, college, or Guatemala. Are there any possible combinations? Wren needs to choose, her heart or her parents ideas? It's time to make a decision.

"You're saying the mysteries are worth examining, even if they're too big to be understood. That maybe they're bound to be too big to understand, but that doesn't  take anything away from them, and in fact just adds to their beauty."

Looking For Alaska

The Bookworm says...YES. Looking For Alaska by John Green was fantastic. Just hearing John Greens name should make you go out and buy it. Miles is a nerd, loser, outcast, etc. He decides to restart his life at a boarding high school called Culver Creek. He gets there and meets his roommate Chip, aka The Colonel. The Colonel introduces Miles (who was immediately nicknamed Pudge) to Alaska Young and Takumi Hikohito. They all become best friends. They pull many excellent pranks on The Weekday Warriors- the snobby rich kids that go home on the weekend- and on The Eagle(the principal). After a long night of truth or dare, and hopeless drunk ness, Alaska gets a call. During it she starts to cry and scream. She runs to her car, and has Pudge and The Colonel make a distraction. She leaves and.... Well I'm not going to give away the surprise. This book was by all means wonderful, and seeing as you are still reading this, there is no way you could be buying the book. So stop reading this and go!!
