Fall

Hi, Page Turner here! Sorry that I haven't written in a while...it's been super busy. Fall is coming! Fall--not autumn, mind you. Autumn seems to much like sunlight and warm breezes, and red trees. I'm talking about fall--rusty brown leaves that scuttle on the ground, pale blue skies, shadowy cold days, husky afternoons, bright red, yellow, and red, pumpkins, geese, fire in the fireplace, raking leaves....Fall is endless and seems to be different than Autumn. Anyway, Fall's here and I'm so happy! I want to spend all my time outside and just sit and watch Fall fall. (By the way, who came up with the word 'Fall'? Love it as I might, was that the most creative they could come up with? Did someone just look at the sky, say, 'Look how those leaves fall! What shall we call it? Oh...how about fall?) I love what this devotional said about autumn/fall. It's the time where everything dies, and produces something even prettier. Kind of like dying to our old sinful desires and nature; God turns us into something much more beautiful! So you can expect that I shall frolic with Fox and eat pumpkin pie and watch the geese fly away, as the red, orange, yellow, and brown leaves swirl around us. Bye!

The Invention of Hugo Cabret

Hi, Page Turner here! I'm back for--guess what!--another book review. That's right, folks. Book reviews are now officially part of the blog and will be labeled under movie reviews. What's this one on? Just one of the greatest graphic novels of all time. Okay, so when I said 'graphic novel' I guess I should be more specific. According to the dictionary a graphic novel is "a novel in a comic strip format." This book combines pages with words with pages covered in beautiful drawings that tell a story almost as clearly as the aforesaid written pages do. If you haven't guessed it all ready, this is the story of "The Invention of Hugo Cabret." If this doesn't sound like your kind of book, does mystery, danger, an orphan kid living in a clock tower, an old man with a secret, the history and magic of movies, or a secret hidden in a metal automaton strike your fancy? Here's my review!                   ...

The Great Gatsby Book Review

Hi, Page Turner here. Today is the third book in the 30 series on “15 Books Every Person Should Read.” Yesterday was about The Giver by Louis Lowry. Today I’m going to be writing about The Great Gatsby. A beloved, gritty classic about the 1920s, I read this book a few years ago and have been captured by its message ever since. I hope you enjoy today’s book review!                                         The Great Gatsby—a Book Review       The 1920s, dubbed the Roaring Twenties, has captured the imaginations of generations. Twinkling lights, flapper dresses, jazz, and Downton Abbey-esque dinner parties have all been general characterizations of this time period. Add in some speak-easy bars, some romance and mystery, and a trip to the cinema in the family automobile to complete the picture....

Books, Books, Books...

Hi, Page Turner here! Okay, so if the start of this high school year as been anything, it has  not  been boring due to lack of books to read. Here's a list of my favorite books, (in no particular order) that I've read since August!     1. "Bud, Not Buddy." This is book filled with humor and pathos and narrated by a ten-year old street-savvy kid in the Great Depression. After loosing his mom when he was six, he is moved to an orphanage. After a series of events, he finds himself alone on the road. But Bud has a secret--he thinks he knows who is father is, and he sets out to find him. This heart-warming story shows the heart of young boy, the mind of a hardened man, and the importance of family. 8/10! 2. "City of Ember Trilogy" Okay, so actually it's a quartet, but I've never liked the "Prophet of Yunwood" anyway. This series follows the events after a devastating world war that caused fire, starvation, and disease; a war that nearly wiped...
