Eleanor and Park
Investigator

  When writing Eleanor and Park, Rainbow Rowell decided to use comic books as something that both Park and Eleanor would enjoy together. She originally got the idea to use comic books because when she was younger, there was a boy in her neighborhood that would read comics on the bus, like Park. She liked things such as X-Men and a different comic called Marshall Law. This is why she used comic books in her book.

Predictions for The City of Bones

There are demons in the world that Clary Fray lives in. I think Clary will find her kidnapped mother.

The demons are after her. I think that it is because she might not be a full mundane (normal human.)

She meets a boy named Jace. I think they might have met each other before but they both have no recollection of it.

Death In Colors
By: Nati

A girl stood by her dead brother.
Her mouth jittered. Her arms folded from the cold.
An intense spurt, then-nothing.
Was he breathing?
No,
Of course not.
We know that the boy didn’t make it.
I loosened his soul, and try to enjoy every color I see in it.

“ From The Book Thief by Markus Zusak.”

WELCOME!!!

  Dear Reader,
 
    Hello, everyone! My name is Nati, and one of my favorite pass-times is reading. Personally, I enjoy reading manga and fan-fictions. However, I would like to learn about different books so that I, along with the other people who post, can get interested in the different genres and forms of literature that this world of ours has to offer. This is why I created this blog! So I hope that you all can enjoy this to express your feelings and tastes to one another. And don't forget to have fun!
