Colleen's Conclusions

I have been reading some good books this year, so I thought I would try to review a few here even if this blog is just for me. All Laced Up was one of the cutest books I have read this year. It was a cross between Ice Princess and A Cinderella Story. The book was about an ice skater and a hockey player slowly....well, I do not really want to give anything away. One of the reasons why I liked this book so much was because of the quotes. They were realistic for a young adult book and they actually related to life. "But the difference between everyone and the greats is that the greats know how to fight. Despite the circumstances, despite the pressure, despite whatever is going on, they fight. I think you have to fight for what you want." There were a few others that I liked, but again, I do not want to give the book away. I thought this book was good because a girl actually knew about hockey and she never backed down from what she thought about the popular guy protag...

Anybody that knows me knows that I love reading. I've always loved reading ever since I was little. I remember gathering all of my books that I had when I was about five and organizing them while trying to decide what to read next. That's probably why I love e-readers so much, because I love the idea of having all of my books with me in one place. Reading is also one of the only things I don't have much trouble understanding. Being hearing impaired means that I don't always understand what is being said. Books are the only thing in life that I fully understand 100%, and that's probably why I love them so much. So I'm going to try to make this be about books, and e-readers. If you're a reader like me, it's ok to love e-readers. The world will try to tell you that e-readers aren't real books, but you can read them the same way you can read an actual book; they are just on a device instead.
