Life is like a box of chocolates....you never know what you're going to get.

Nick's bookshelf: read

Rise of the Evening Star

by Brandon Mull

Good book. This series is an easy read and meant for a younger audience. Still it is quite entertaining.

The Tales of Beedle the Bard

by J.K. Rowling

This book might be more enjoyable as a book on cd but it didn't really capture me making we want to read more. Probably would have finished the book if didn't need to take it back to the library. Now I probably won't ever finish it.

Room

by Emma Donoghue

I wish that goodreads gave half star ratings because I would give this book a 3.5. What a tragic story. I can't imagine going through something like that.

The Art of Racing in the Rain

by Garth Stein

I liked the book. It was an easy read. It was a good book but nothing amazing.

Unbroken: A World War II Story of Survival, Resilience, and Redemption

by Laura Hillenbrand

I am always compelled by these type of books. This book captivated me throughout the whole story. Very interesting and good read. This man's will to live and struggles are amazing. What a journey.
