I usually enjoy these books in Oke's Women of the West series, but this one just fell flat for me. The details about living in the back country and trapping were interesting, but the religious aspect took over the entirety of the back 1/3 of this book and sort of fell flat for me. Of all of these I've read, it seemed like the actual plot was thinnest in this one. Not as good as I hoped, but not terrible.
At first I wasn't sure if this was a book for me because gore and bloodbath isn't really my cup of tea, but I have to say, I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It was a super quick read, only taking me about 36 hours to read it from cover to cover, and I easily could have read it in one sitting if I were on vacation. To me it seems like a cross between two of my favorite sci-fi/fantasy books, 'Ender's Game' and 'Twilight.' It had the battles that enthralled me in Ender's Game, and the love story that I was addicted to with the Twilight Saga. In fact, the protagonist, Katniss, in 'The Hunger Games' reminded me greatly of Bella Swan from Twilight. That kind of girl that is so greatly lacking in self-confidence that she doesn't even see her own appeal. Of course, Katniss was much more bad ass than Bella Swan, and not nearly as whiney. I just have my fingers crossed that the 2nd and 3rd novels in this trilogy don't suck as much as the last two books of the Twilight saga. All in all, this was a fantastic novel, and I highly recommend it to anyone who's looking for a quick read and/or anyone who is a fan of Twilight.
Growing up, although I played Oregon trail some, I much preferred Amazon Trail. It sparked an interest in that part of the world and a desire to travel the river, learning about the people that live there and identifying animals. After reading this book, I'm happy to stay home. The Amazon sounds pretty terrible. That being said... I really enjoyed this story... It's an exciting biography of one of the most famous explorers of the Amazon in his search for El Dorado. Highly recommended!

This book, An Abundance of Katherines, written by John Green, is about relationships, friendship, and a road trip. Colin is a teenager who just got dumped by a Katherine for the nineteenth time. In his sorrow, his best friend Hassan takes him on a road trip to Gutshot, Tennessee. While in Gutshot, he gets a job, makes a theorem, and finally gets the girl. I would definitely recommend this book to anyone, young or old, who likes a good happy ending to a book you don’t want to put down.
For me it's the best of the series. Temeraire is on fire in this one, funny,innocent, outraged and endlessly entertaining. The best lines were the ones relating to what he was doing in the stream!

"Holes" was that book; a good book even though I didn't chose to read this book because it was a class project. Holes had a lot to deal with race because the white man didn't like the black man. Justice was passed throughout the whole book. Justice was taken into the hands of normal citizens as well as the government. There were many fantastical elements to this book "Holes". Holes had a great deal of racism in it. Sam the black man in the book but the love of Kate Barlow. Sam was a very handy man that had respect for the white folk but they had no respect for him. Sam would give the white person a potion that would heal Yellow Spotted Lizard bites but that wasn't enough for them. Sam kissed a white woman, Kate. Charles Walker and his friends killed Sam for that because he loved Kate but she didn't love him. Kate Barlow went rogue and turned into a violent outlaw by the name of Kissing Kate. She would steal away from people and anyone that got in her way she killed and then kissed them on the forehead. Justice was another great element of "Holes". Stanley and Zero were the two in the book who justice was enforced on. Zero went to camp Green Lake because he stole some sneakers that were very valuable and Stanley was just in the wrong place at the wrong time. Stanley was wrongly accused but it broke the curse off his family by meeting Zero or Hector Zeroni. Kate Barlow took from anyone she felt like but their was no justice enforced on her because no one could catch her. Holes had a lot of fantastical elements inside the book. Stanley's great great grandfather stole a pig from Madam Zeroni and so the generations after his great great grandfather had a curse on them until Stanley broke the curse by carrying Hector up the mountain and singing that special song and the curse broke.
