The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold is a book a book about a girl named susie who is raped and killed, one day when she was walking home. This is the stoThe Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold is a book a book about a girl named susie who is raped and killed, one day when she was walking home. This is the story on how she gets her father to relize her killer, and figure out her murder. The story shows what hevan is like and how the family copes with a family member missing.
I think this connects to the movie. I only saw half of the movie but i think that the book is better than the movie because the book kindof explains in detail on how susie is feeling and thinking, and shows the story through her point of view. The book seems like the better dissection though.
I would recomend this book to anyone over the age of 12 and even that the book is pretty mature. It involves rape and murder so i would recomend this book to someone who is matrue. I gave this book 4 stars because the book was really good, and kept me intrested....more

Where she soon finds her self a part of a clique, the clique of all the popular girls. But the only reason she is in that clique is because she caught one of the popular girls with a gypsy and she now has to hold her secret. It is sort of a mid evial clique book.
I think that i can make this book connect to, the clique series becuase they both are sort of a appart of a clique. The only difference is in a great and terrible beauty is in sort of only england, so the setting is different. I gave this book 5 stars because even though i didnt really have time to finish it i really tried to, and it really kept me going wanting me to know whats gona happen next. Its a great book and i would recomend it to teen girls between the ages of 11-16....more

Her father dies at the begaining of the book and she was tormented by him calling or showng her that she was big boned. So soon she begain to stop eating and then became an anorexic. The book starts out with her geting out of rehab and the mental hospital for anorexia. The book talks about how she felt coming out of anorexia felt, and how she overcame it, with haveing a new relationship and having the rest of her family there. The book swiches between gizzeles point of veiw and her sister hollys point of view, in hadd wich gizzel sometimes is jelouse of holly. Gizzel Just got out of collage when this happend so she is trying to get her life back together and go to metical school. I think this book relates to the real word because it kind of gives you a sense of what its like in side a rehabilitation center. What its like to recover from Anorexia or any other disese. I think it really explains all that you can see behind someone elses eyes.
i gave this book 5 stars because i felt that i really understood it and it had alot to relate to. I Thout it had alot of information and i just cold understand Gizzel. I think what made it extra interesting was that they threw is science facts and quotes about the human body. I would recomend this book to any girl who is in 8th or 9th grade, its a great book and i think everyone should read it. ...more
High Dive by Tammar Stein is a book about this girl who goes to pairs on a suprise trip. She just got out of collage and her father died not so long aHigh Dive by Tammar Stein is a book about this girl who goes to pairs on a suprise trip. She just got out of collage and her father died not so long ago, and her mom is always traveling because she is a docter in the army. So she is used to traveling a lot. so when her mom asks her to go to germany to sell there old home she goes on a plane ready to go to germany. Although along the way she runs in to these collage girls who are going to paris and offer for her to come with them. She soon finds her self going to Pariis and droping a lot of her responsibilities and going off to Paris and staying at this hostile with these girls. through out this whole book she goes through flash backs; back to when she was little and back to when her dad was alive.
I can relate this book to another book called Girl Hearts, in this book her mom actually dies and she shows herself going though school with flash backs though out the book. In High Dive she talks about how when she was little and how she used to be when her dad was still alive and she used to be and how things used to be. and in girl hearts the book actually starts out in a flash back, getting used to flash back and thought the book it goes like this.
i gave this book 4 stars because i thought it was very interesting to see what it is like to travel throughout the world. also having a mom who was in the army really how it affects the family in this book. in this book although i think that it was a little confusing with the flash backs it could get a little confusing with the setting....more

i think this book relates to the book vamps. ok, i know that vamps is about girls and how they are vampires but the first part of the book relates because they both take place in the 1800/1900. So they both are very popular and get around allot. so this helped me understand the book because its a nice way to relate it too another book and think about it in a different way.
i gave this book 4 stars because i thought it was a very good book full with intergrody and betrayal. i thought i kept me on the edge of my seat. Although i thought that sometimes it wondered off of the 1800's theme. i would recommend this book to anyone ages 12-21 ...more

I think this book relates to the past books because it is basically tally;s journey throughout the book. she has gone through allot and reading the past books defiantly helped me understand this one. although i feel towards the 2nd book the writing started to change up a bit and how Tally's personality changed.
i gave this book 3 stars because i thought this book really was thought out and i usually don't like sifi or fairy tale books but i was a fan of this series. although this book was not the best book out of all of them i defiantly thought it was one of her worst books....more

She kind This book To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee is about a girl nicknamed "Scout". Scout grows up in a southern town to with is segragragated.

i can relate this book to the book " a tree grows in Brooklyn because both girls are around the same age. Although the girl in A Tree Grows in Brooklyn she does not grow up with segregation she grows up with racist people and she is an irish immigrate her self. Although i think that both girls kind of try to find beauty in every thing.
i gave this book 3 stars because i thought the charter was very believable. although i did not have a lot to relate to and i thought it wasn't written in the right age sense. i would recommend this book to anyone who likes the little things in life....more

This irish girl soon becomes pregnant... a bit too soon. and she has a heathy baby 3 months earlier than planed. now you can assume the skepticism the family had that this baby was really attires ( the son). They soon come to believe that the daughter had sex with another man became pregnant and had no where to go and married there son. Although the next day the mother of the chilled and the woman who married there son was died the next morning, and this is the story on how they figured out how/who and if she was married.
I think this is a little silly but i think this book relates to the TV show 'my name is earl'. it is kind of like a modern american vision of this story. this helps me understand the story a bit because its kind of like a modern version that helps you understand. although i think that it does not exactly relate to each other.
i gave this book 4 stars because it was very good. i defiantly liked the story line of the book because it was kind of a miscarry throughout the book. I loved the fact that it took place in little italy and a stereo type italian family. although one thing i didn't like is how much it jumped around. it was a bit confessing to stay on track of whose who....more
This books basic setting is in New England during the Civlil war. its a story about the march sisters who they share everything. Althought beth meg anThis books basic setting is in New England during the Civlil war. its a story about the march sisters who they share everything. Althought beth meg and jo are the main people of this book, so the book starts off near chistmas eve, and them complaining on how they dont have any presants. So, the family is not that wealthy, although they do find ways to enjoy life.
i think this book relates to the secret garden, because they both take place in new england. Also both the girls seem to grow up a bit durring the book, so when both the girls grow up they both end up marring someone. I feel that both the books help me understand the other book by relateing it to another charicter.
I gave this book three stars because i thought it was very good and i liked the plot. Although i dont feel i had alot to relate to this book makeing it hard for me to fallow. i would recomend this book to any young teens, although it does take alot of stamina to read....more
