Rating: **** Really Liked it!
Recommendation: I recommend this book to every girl. It’s a good book!
Summary: In this book Eclipse it starts out talking about how people in Seattle keep being murdered. Edward guesses its newborn vampires. Bella and Edward fill out collage applications. Bella wants to see Jacob and be friends with him but Edward doesn’t allow her to because he feels that Jacob and his brothers might harm her. After Bella "sneaks" away from school to hang out with Jacob, Edward can see that he won't harm Bella. Alice see's Victoria in town. Victoria got together an army of newborn vampires to destroy Bella. The wolves and vampires fight together and save Bella’s life. They kill Victoria and the army. Edward proposes to Bella officially. Bella and Edward agree on her changing to a vampire. Jacob is very unhappy about Bella’s decision to become a vampire and he runs away in his wolf form to escape the pain.
Explanation Rating: I gave this book 5 star because it was really good. It has romance, action, fiction ECT. Overall it’s a really good book. A lot of things happen in this book it keeps you interested. As your reading the book, you find yourself in another world. It is really believable.
Favorite passage: "If I had been able to take your place last night, it would not have made the top ten "best" nights of my life. Dream about that." I think it’s funny because Jacob thinks he's all cool because he can keep Bella warm and Edward just puts him in his place. I think its hilarious.

This book gives many different ways on how to increase productivity and how to become needed in the company where you work. This book gives great advice on how do make yourself indispensable and has lots of great examples on ways to be the best in your job.
Summary:
This book wasn't really a story as much as it was an informative book. It is a great book on the importance of being valuable for your company so that you will be able to advance and become of more worth in the real world. It was good for me to read while coming out of high school because I am in need of a job and this book helped give me ideas on how to be the best candidate for a job. It said a lot on how to make your application stick out from the others. Wording in the application is so important in the process. You have to credit yourself on past experience in the work place, often times, this can make or break a job application. This book pointed out that there are always ways to cut costs and increase a net profit. It is great to know these simple rules and facts that will help forever in the future to make one more valuable and an indispensable employee for their job.
Explanation:
Not the everyday book the people expect to read but this book was very informational and very useful. I liked it because of the important information that will come to be useful in my career and in becoming the best candidate when it comes to applying and working with new jobs. I am not a great reader, but this interested me from the beginning. It caught my attention with the importance of knowing what and how to become valuable. I am going to start having to work for everything and it is going to be a little easier with the information I learned from this book.
Favorite passage:
You will come across countless lists of things to do, including wearing nice shoes and having a bright smile. But what you really need to do is help the company earn more money than it spends and spend less thatn it earns - period.
This passage points out that all of that mumbo jumbo hints on how to get raises and to gain a higher status in the workplace, but the way to become indispensable is to help the company improve profits and to become the best employee possible.

Nights in Rodanthe A2
Name: Maria Gomez
Class: A2
Book: Nights in Rodanthe
Author: Nicholas Sparks
Pages: 212
Rating: ***
Recommendations: This book is about a strong relationship drama, and is also fun to read. It is also full of love and sacrifice. I recommend this book for those who love drama and who are truly in love. It is a very romantic story.
Summary: This is the story of a sixty- year-old women whose name is Adrienne Willis. She decides to tell her daughter the story about how she rebounded from losing her spouse. Fifteen years ago, Adrienne’s husband and father of their three children left her for a younger women and she felt her world had ended. Adrienne is trying to help Amy, her daughter, handle with the death of her husband. Amy’s mom starts telling her the story by saying that her story began at an inn in Rodanthe, North Carolina where she met Paul Flanner. Paul was a surgeon with no time for his wife and son because work was everything for him. His world buckled when a patient died. When Adrienne gets to Rodanthe, searching for tranquility, she meets Paul and in one weekend, a romance sets that will vibrate throughout the rest of their lives. Paul and Adrienne found comfort with each other.
Explanation of Rating: This was an interesting story for me, but I think it was a little too dramatic. I would have preferred that Adrienne’s husband wouldn’t have left her. It would have been a more romantic story. Other than that, I really enjoyed reading this book because it was also interesting how Adrienne was helping her daughter handle the death of her spouse. It was okay in the way that she met Paul and started a romance, but I think that the story shouldn’t have ended like that. I think it would have been a better ending if Adrienne’s husband wouldn’t have left her so that at the end both would have helped Amy with her problem.
Favorite passage: “It was funny that you could know someone for years but still discover something you never noticed before.”
I love this passage because it concludes that you can never finish knowing someone perfectly. Its saying that whenever you feel like you know someone perfectly just because you’ve known that person for a long time, out of no one comes something new that you’ve never noticed before. That’s when you see that you can never get to know someone perfectly enough to know exactly how they are.
