Book of the Day- Divergent by Veronica Roth

 Book of the day:



Divergent by Veronica Roth.
  This was a really good book. The plot is exciting, thrilling, the whole edge of your seat thing. No kidding, It was a great book. Everyone knows it is going to be a movie soon, and my opinion of that is, Hollywood is evil, they will ruin it, but the book is so good, the movie will still be pretty good.

  I recommend this book for anyone who's into books with action. Actually, you should just read it, and figure out what you think.

  The rest of the series is not half as good as Divergent. Roth brings in poorly written love stories, a confusing plot twist (seriously confusing), and a very unexpected, and unnecessary ending (at least it clears up the poor love story.) But even though some people say not to read the series because after the first book the go down hill, I still think it's worth it.

  Happy reading.

The Fault in Our Stars

The Fault in Our Stars by John Green.

  Everyone has had cancer effect their lives, and you've probably already read a book or two on cancer. This book goes way deeper than the other cancer books I've read. It asks the deepest question known to man, what is our purpose?

  John Green is one of the most elegant writers that I've read in a long time, he can describe things in a few sentences just as good as another author would take four. His characters were painstakingly real, and his plot was simply heart-breaking. But he missed it.
 
  According to his characters the purpose of life is to have our best life now, and to hope that at the end we liked our choices, and maybe if we are really lucky someone will remember us.

I know there is more than that, and if you read a different book, with an open mind, I'm sure that you will agree that the point of this life is preparation for something bigger, so much bigger and more beautiful. If you read this book with an open heart, you will know the answer to the age old question, the question that separates humans from animals, what is the purpose of life?

 If you really want to know the answer read this book, the Bible (I suggest NIV). Don't roll your eyes. Just read it with an open mind. I have a purpose, and when I die, I know what will happen. Do you know for sure?
