My book this week was Fahrenheit 451 by Ray Bradbury. It is about a man named Guy Montag. He is a fireman in a sad dystopia/future where fireman burn books. Books give people an opinion, and the government doesn't want them to have that. Instead, people sit inside all day watching their wall-to-wall TVs.

I read Attachments by Rainbow Rowell. I've read a couple other books by her and they were all very good, Attachments included.
It is told from alternating chapters of email conversation between two women and third-person of a man named Lincoln. Lincoln's job is to read other people's email and send them warnings if they are talking to each other and not doing their work. He starts reading the emails between Beth and Jennifer. He starts to like them more and more even though he has never met them in person.
This book is very funny and good. I would recommend it to anyone (except for *ahem* people who don't like cursing)

I read Days of Blood and Starlight by Laini Taylor. It is a sequel to Daughters of Smoke and Bone, which you can read about in the blog here. (click the word "here" to go to the Daughters of Smoke and Bone blog)
Karou, a girl with blue hair and a bunch of monster friends, is trapped in a sandcastle in the middle of the desert. She has memories from another life as another person. One of her memories is of a wolf who had her executed. It's also the same wolf whom she is currently working for.
In another world, angels are plotting to burn everything (they have no particular reason, they just want to).
WHAT WILL THEY DO??? Read the book(s)!

I read Legend last week.
As Max described when he was talking about good books, it is told from the perspectives of two people, Day and June. Day is a wanted criminal and The Republic (the future empire they live in) will stop at nothing to kill him. June is a spy who got a perfect 1500 on her Trial (the test they give all 10-year-olds to see how smart they are; it basically ruins your life if you get a bad score). When Day is suspected of killing June's brother, she goes undercover to track him down, because the thing is that no one even knows what he looks like. They meet and they basically fall in love except June doesn't know she's dating the most wanted kid in the country. Then she find out and locks him up and sentences him to death and READ THE REST TO FIND OUT!
I did not really like this book. It is boring in the beginning, action-y in the middle, and boring at the end. I will not read the rest of the trilogy.
