     As I was combing through books I’ve read when I was younger, I stumbled upon a book that tells a captivating tale of friendship, identity, and nature versus technology: The Wild Robot . It may be labeled as a story most suitable for children, but I believe people of all ages should read this heartwarming work. The Wild Robot takes the reader from bullying moments and being an outcast to those of indestructible bonds of friendship and family. Hold on to your seats because you’re about to be in for a banger of a book!       The Wild Robot begins with a robot named Roz who finds herself activated on a mysterious island without any human inhabitants. She is completely lost in terms of purpose, and strives to learn how to survive in the wilderness. However, that proves to be a challenge, so she must turn to the island’s animals. After learning their languages after a long time of observation, Roz discovers that she is labeled as a “monster” a...

They Both Die At The End by Adam Silvera is a young adult novel that focuses on the romance of Rufus and Mateo. The teenagers are in a dystopian world where you get an alert the day you die, so they try to live their entire lifetime in a single day. At the beginning of the novel, Mateo is a very shy character. He spends time with his father and his best friend Lydia for most of his life, until his dad goes into a coma. As a result, he hides in his room for most of his life, and he’s especially interested in the lives of Deckers (people who are dying that day). Mateo has always been very kind to everyone and everything, even burying a baby bird on the side of the road in one of the earlier scenes. When he gets the call, he’s pretty shocked and scared. Eventually, he builds up the courage to download the Last Friend app in the hopes of meeting someone to support him. He’s very put off by some of the people on the app, and is about to give up when he meets Rufus. Rufus’s life is almost th...

     In my last blog post, I reviewed the third book of the Legend trilogy, and I've recently been rereading the series backward. In this blog, I'm going to go over the plot of this book and the book before to explain why Prodigy is the perfect dystopian novel.        Legend shows a dystopian future where the United States has become the Republic. The story follows two protagonists, June, a military prodigy, and Day, a wanted criminal. On one fateful night, June's brother is killed, and Day becomes the prime suspect. June is assigned to capture Day, but she uncovers government secrets and corruption as she investigates. The story unfolds by switching between the two characters, who soon discover that their real enemy is the Republic and become partners and soon lovers, in crime.         In the sequel Prodigy, Day, now a public hero, and June join forces with the Patriot rebels, who seek to overthrow the oppressive gov...

                                             I am going to first say that I did not know that Speak was a book. I have always thought it was just a movie (even though I haven't seen it.) Interesting 🤔. OH also! This novel does have a very heavy topic that if I explain it all in my review it would spoil the majority of the book so I am going to try my best and go into as much detail as I possibly can. Ok now enjoy!      The novel  Speak by: Laurie Halse Anderson follows a shy freshman girl named Melinda Sordino and her start at a new school. Being new and an awkward teenager in general Melinda finds it difficult to talk to classmates and make friends. After a life changing incident unfolds at a party she is invited to, she has to learn how to navigate her emotions alone and looses all connection with her peers...

  Arnhem stands out as one of the most extensively documented battles of the Second World War, and it's not surprising given the crazy events it contains. The airborne operations, executed by the British 1st Airborne at Arnhem, the US 82nd Airborne at Nijmegen, and the US 101st Airborne at Eindhoven, represent the most ambitious airborne and maybe also military undertaking in military history. Involving a stunning 35,000 parachute and glider troops, it also featured an armored advance by Brian Horrocks’ XXX Corps (30th corps), amphibious assaults on major rivers, a massive air-resupply effort, repeated air-to-ground rocket strikes, and fierce German counterattacks led by elite SS units. The Operation Market Garden plan's distinctive aspect relies on the precision and timing of all aspects of the operation to ensure one aspect does not affect the other. Another noteworthy feature is how the plan gained momentum, evolving into an unstoppable force, even in the face of intelligenc...
