Ik heb ook nog 3 boeken van Pratchet hier liggen. Zijn ze echt leuk?
Anyhow afgelopen week weer wat gelezen. Was dit topic vergeten want stond niet meer in mijn MYAT.
The fault in our stars
Despite the tumor-shrinking medical miracle that has bought her a few years, Hazel has never been anything but terminal, her final chapter inscribed upon diagnosis. But when a gorgeous plot twist named Augustus Waters suddenly appears at Cancer Kid Support Group, Hazel’s story is about to be completely rewritten.
Een erg mooi boek, ben benieuwd naar de verfilming maar die zal wel weer tegenvallen.
A dog's purpose
This is the remarkable story of one endearing dog's search for his purpose over the course of several lives. More than just another charming dog story, A Dog's Purpose touches on the universal quest for an answer to life's most basic question: Why are we here? Surprised to find himself reborn as a rambunctious golden-haired puppy after a tragically short life as a stray mutt, Bailey's search for his new life's meaning leads him into the loving arms of eight-year-old Ethan. During their countless adventures, Bailey joyously discovers how to be a good dog. But this life as a family pet is not the end of Bailey's journey. Reborn as a puppy yet again, Bailey wonders - will he ever find his purpose? Heartwarming, insightful, and often laugh-out-loud funny, A Dog's Purpose is not only the emotional and hilarious story of a dog's many lives, but also a dog's-eye commentary on human relationships and the unbreakable bonds between man and man's best friend. This moving and beautifully crafted story teaches us that love never dies, and that every creature on earth is born with a purpose.
Een prachtig verhaal oh wat heb ik zitten janken en lachen en dan weer janken..., nog beter dan "The art of racing in the rain" die ik ook al erg goed vond. De sequel is in bestelling ben er erg benieuwd naar.
The perks of being a wallflower
Charlie is a freshman. And while he's not the biggest geek in the school, he is by no means popular. Shy, introspective, intelligent beyond his years yet socially awkward, he is a wallflower, caught between trying to live his life and trying to run from it. Charlie is attempting to navigate his way through uncharted territory: the world of first dates and mixed tapes, family dramas and new friends; the world of sex, drugs, and The Rocky Horror Picture Show, when all one requires is that perfect song on that perfect drive to feel infinite. But Charlie can't stay on the sideline forever. Standing on the fringes of life offers a unique perspective. But there comes a time to see what it looks like from the dance floor.
The Perks of Being a Wallflower is a deeply affecting coming-of-age story that will spirit you back to those wild and poignant roller-coaster days known as growing up.
Van dit boek had ik de film eerst gezien vooral omdat Emma Watson erin speelde en ik benieuwd was hoe ze het zou doen buiten Harry Potter. Na de film kwam ik erachter dat er ook een boek van was en heb ik die nu eindelijk een keer gelezen. Een leuk boek met ok veel serieuze onderwerpen. Het maakte de film iig een stuk duidelijker.
Ik ben nu bezig in "Looking for Alaska" van John Green
