The Knife of Never Letting Go By: Patrick Ness

The Knife of Never Letting Go
By: Patrick Ness
 
 
         I read this book for a school project last year, and let me tell you it was one of the most interesting books I read that year, compared to Under the Never sky.  This book was about a boy who lives in a town of all males, and they can all hear each others thoughts. The way Ness Portrays this is "Noise" he calls it noise an appropriate title for what it really is. A girl comes down  from a space ship to do something, and he finds her, and a crazy guy chases them and it all goes to chaos from there. And WAR! Anyway the book as much as it wants to be a sci-fi novel, doesn't truly make it there. I mean the space ship  and all that jazz but yes I Loved this book. 

The Brokenhearted By: Amelia Kahaney

 
 
 
 
 
 
                  This book pretty much had a stupid plot and One cool aspect, and the question is: why did I enjoy it so much? It was a wanna be Batman without the intelligence. Maybe it was the intrigue of the most intense part of the book! I went in knowing this book was about to be a Romeo and Juliet novel, ya know other sides of the spectrum. But no I got a man disappearing and her searching for him and whoa plot twist!!! So I cannot give to much away about why I loved it, but whether or not you will like it is obviously all up to you. I do believe the main reason I loved it is because of her makeshift heart she gets. The cover depicts what it looks like and It is the whole reason she becomes a superhero. Also they introduce a main character halfway through the book like what?  but I give it 4.5 stars. Just because.
 
                                                 And the Well anticipated sequel is in the mail!!

Pulse

Pulse by: Patrick Carman

            After being 90 pages in you think you would have hit some sort of spark to your interest but no, no spark, only a little "okay that's weird". But it's not the kind of book that has you stay up at night reading it, or if not reading it wondering about it. I almost read this last year for my distopian sci-fi unit, but passed and went with The Knife of Never Letting Go by: Patrick Ness. I LOVED it so glad that i picked it instead of this book. I'm going to continue with it because some books need a little time to get interesting, (but 90 pages really), anyway I'm not one to abandon books so i will continue on.
