E-book

is not filled with twitter, snapchat, or U tube. No my screen time, and there is a lot of it, is filled with reading the books the likes of Prep, by the author Jenny Han or The Summer I Turned Pretty by the author Curtis Steinfield. And yes, without a doubt, I know before I reach page fifty, how the book will end. True there is always a teen age girl at the center of each book who ends up finding herself once she has traversed the ins and outs of a high school romance. However, for some reason…

A book and a movie are so much more different than each other a book has more detail. The text was so much better than the video it is basically comparing a book to the movie made the book has much more detail.Why it is better is you can read your own pace and understand what you are reading than what you are hearing from someone else.It took me about One Hour showing that Al gore didn't describe anything or the story at all.To read the book it took about twenty mins to view the video showing…

well-known fact that books have the power to transport you across time and space, but sometimes you finish a great read and you aren’t quite sure where it’s taken you. While this trippy sensation probably isn’t for the Jojo Moyes lovers out there, it is a thrill for readers who crave the bizarre, the outlandish and the flat-out confusing. If you’re all about absurdists like Beckett, Murakami and Pynchon, then you need to get to a bookstore (or open Amazon in a tab if that’s your book-buying…

When I was a child I hated reading. All through my elementary years in school I was in “Title One” classes that were suppose to help kids that were slow at reading. I would have to leave class at certain times on certain days no matter what was going on in class. Around age nine i had convinced myself that I didn't need the extra class and tried to stop going altogether. I thought that just because I could read in my head that I was reading at a fourth grade reading level. This just resulted in…

quickly and move on to something more entertaining. From a family of five with one brother four years older than me and a sister six years older than me, I was always compared to my older siblings. My sister always read, she could never put down a book, as for my brother and I, we were not as excited to read as she appeared to be. Over time the level in which I was supposed to read at, and the level I did read at grew far apart. I was never the greatest reader growing up, struggling to read out…

There are two hundred and twenty-seven pages. This book was a 7. I gave this book a 7 first because it was a really good book. It explains very difficult things with illustrations that make sense. The reason it did not score higher is that I did get bored occasionally because it was not a storyline but individual ideas discussed. It was at times difficult to comprehend, but that is not necessarily a bad thing because it got me thinking. I chose this book because I had heard many people talking…

extremely long. I remember diving into our first novel thinking, ‘I’ll just suffer through this and get my grade.’ As I began to get deeper and deeper into the book, I started to realize I didn’t want to put it down. Before I knew it, I was reading the last page wishing it wasn’t over. The more books we read in class, I was opened to the power of books and the power of words. How it takes you to a whole new world and yet it relates to everything that is happening now in some way. ‘That is the…

I thought my life was over when I was laid off from my job in the earlier part of 2011. That happened right after I found out I was pregnant with my son. It was devastating news to my husband since I was earning a huge bulk of our household income. For years, I researched how to make money from home because I didn 't want to go back to work once my son was born. Although I lost money in the process of staying off work, I experienced a certain peace of mind that I did not get from commuting to…
