If you really like chick-flicks, you will really like this book!

Stuff: Compulsive Hoarding and the Meaning of Things

This book is the documented journey of two scientists working with compulsive hoarders to learn more about the disorder. It is both frightening and interesting, but mostly frightening. I recommend it to anyone who is interested in learning more about why people save newspaper clippings from 8 years ago along with other useless objects.

Keeping the Moon

Keeping the Moon by Sarah Dessen, tells the story of Colie, a teenager who used to be overweight. Colie is forced to stay with her aunt Mira while her mother, a world-famous fitness guru, tours Europe. While with her aunt Mira, Colie befriends Morgan and Isabel, two best friends. Through Morgan and Isabel, Colie learns about herself and all the frustrations she has towards the world around her. I would highly recommend this book to others especially if you're looking for a quick read.

The Dissapearing Spoon

The Disappearing Spoon is a book about the history of the periodic table. while this may seem like an extremely boring book, as many of you probably do not enjoy chemistry, it is extremely well written, and at many parts is even humorous. It describes the actions that led to the discovery and acquisition of knowledge regarding the elements, and many of the people involved lived extremely interesting lives. I would recomend this book to anyone who has the vaguest intrest in chemistry.

The Time Traveler's Wife

The Time Traveler's Wife is a great book about a girl who grows up her whole life knowing her husband. When she actually meets him when she is 20 he has no idea who she is. This is because he time travels. The whole book is about their relationship and overcoming hard time. I highly recommend this book! It is a little hard to get into though. The writing style of the author is much different and can be a little confusing at times, but if you like love stories you will love it.

Graceling

This book is pretty good so far. It's about this girl named Katsa and she is an assassin. She is a Graceling, I don't really know what that means other than she has two different colored eyes and that she is extremely good at killing people. I am not very far into it so far, but I feel like it is about to get really good.
