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.
I really loved this book and can't wait to see the movie!
Shaq Attaq
Professional basketball's amazing new superstar shares insights about his first NBA season, including his feelings about the pro game, how it feels to be consistently double- and triple-teamed, and lots more.
Yep, I really read this book. It may not have been very good but I still am a Shaquille fan :)
Just Like Other Daughters
Alicia Richards loved her daughter from her very first breath. Days later, when tests confirmed what Alicia already knew--that Chloe had Down syndrome--she didn't falter. Her ex-husband wanted a child who would grow to be a scholar. For Alicia, it's enough that Chloe just is.
Now twenty-five, Chloe is sweet,
funny, and content. Alicia brings her to adult daycare while she teaches
at a local college. One day Chloe arrives home thrumming with
excitement, and says the words Alicia never anticipated. She has met
someone--a young man named Thomas. Within days, Chloe and Thomas, also
mentally challenged, declare themselves in love.
Alicia strives to see past her
misgivings to the new possibilities opening up for her daughter.
Shouldn't Chloe have the same right to love as anyone else? But there is
no way to prepare for the relationship unfolding, or for the moments of
heartbreak and joy ahead.
I enjoyed reading this book much more than I thought I would.
