My Bucket List 2012-2013

1. 13 Reasons Why by Jay Asher

This book is about a girl, who is about my age, that commits suicide. It sounds like a great book and would probably make me a little emotional. I would like to learn more about this because it is happening more and more around the world today, even around where we live.

2. The Lucky One by Nicholas Sparks

I really want to read this book because it is a cute love story and I really enjoy love stories. I have also seen the movie and it is one of the best movies I have ever seen. So I really would like to see if it is the same as the movie or if it is a little switched up. It might possibly be better than the movie.

3. The Best of Me by Nicholas Sparks

Nicholas Sparks is just a really good author and several of his books have been made into movies that have become big hits. This one is also a love story. It involves two teenagers, so I can relate to that. It just sounds like a really good story just like all the rest of his books. I think I would enjoy it a lot.

4. If I Stay by Gayle Forman

This book's main character is a teenager as well. It is about a girl who is in a coma that has the choice of waking up and living a life a lot more difficult, or die. I am not sure what I would do if I was put in that situation, so I would really like to read it and see what she ends up choosing.

5. Moneyball: The Art of Winning and Unfair Game by Michael Lewis

I absolutely love baseball and everything about it, so I think I would really enjoy reading this one. I can relate a lot to it because I play softball and it is a huge part of my life. I have also seen this movie, but I have heard that the book might be a little different. Most of the time, the books are better than the movies anyway.

6. Pretties by Scott Westerfeld

This book is a mystery and I really enjoy reading mysteries. It just sounds like a good story that would keep me interested and on the edge of my seat. Usually, if the book I'm reading is not entertaining and is really boring, I probably am not going to pay much attention to it and more than likely abandon it. I am just really anxious to see how and why everything happens in this story.

7. The Shack by William P. Young

This book also happens to be a mystery that sounds really interesting. Hopefully, it would be one to keep me on my toes and always wondering what happens next. I love scary movies and this book sounds like a story that would kinda make you feel like you were watching a scary movie. I just think it would be a very good story.

8. The Chosen One by Carol Lynch Williams

It sounds pretty creepy and mysterious. I love creepy movies, so I don't see why I wouldn't love scary books like this one too. The first page starts out to a good start, I think. It sounds like something I would hopefully stay interested in, so I would really like to continue reading the rest of it.

9. Make Lemonade by Virginia Euwer Wolff

I read the back of the book and the first couple pages and it sounds like a cute story with a lot of fun characters and will probably be kind of funny. It will probably be one of those stories that has a really good and cute ending.

10. Tall Cool One by Zoey Dean

This story has to do with several teenage girls and their boyfriends and friends and family. I really feel like I connect with a book when it has characters that are just like me. I am able to understand exactly how each character feels and understand what their thinking in almost every situation of their lives.
