Because I am Furniture is a mesmerizing tale by author Thalia Chaltas. She writes about a young girl named Anke who has an abusive father, however he doesn’t attack her only her siblings and mother. She sits back as a silent  by-standard  to the horrors her family goes through everyday. Anke believes that since her father doesn’t abuse her and pay her any mind, she wishes for the abusive attention. She feel just like an insignificant sofa. However, things change when she begins to play volleyball. Volleyball gives her the voice she has always has longed for in her lifetime. With this came her hidden confidence from the court. Anke soon understands that if she can be heard on the court then why not at home with her family.

Because I am Furniture, is a dark complicated world formed into one novel of poems. If you enjoyed reading Ellen Hopkins series of Crank, then this book is for you!

Are you looking for a book that is a fast page turner and makes you cry.  Or a book that has a surprise ending which fuels you with emotion. Well BLISS, has it all in this supernatural story with danger, ghosts, and our favorite scary and creepy co-star who appears to be normal at first and ends up being CRAZY! If you love all of that this is the book for you!!

Bliss in the Morning Dew, is our main character in this tale. The story takes place in the 1970′s in the South where Bliss has just been ditched by her hippie parents on their way to Canada. She ends up at her Grandma’s house and being forced from being a hippie to a “normal” teenage girl, a world she has no clue about. However before her school, Bliss watches her favorite t.v show, The Andy Griffith Show, where she tries to learn to be a regular high school student.

When Bliss begins school at Crestview Academy, she makes friends quick fast to her surprise. They take Bliss under their wing and answer all her simple questions, like “What is a Float?” or “What are Flavor Straws?” Yet, things take a turn for the worst when she begins hearing the voice of a ghost in the school, and trust me it isn’t Casper: the Friendly Ghost. The Ghost was, Liliana a girl who died in the school back when it was a convent and she just happens to be an evil spirit. You might be wondering why Bliss can hear her, well Bliss has the power to interact with the “other” side. So when the ghost, Liliana, senses her power she tries to lure Bliss in. Trying to force Bliss into a ceremony that will set her free. However that’s one problem that leads to another and a quite “bigger” one when she meets Sandy.

Enter Bliss’ twists, turns, and danger through her high school life at Crestview.

Okey dokey gang back again for another EXCITING and i do mean EXCITING vlogg post! If you havent already figured out what i am going to talk about today, i advise you to read the title of the vlog! Haha yes,yes it is going to be a rather EXCITING talk about…drum roll please…HOMEWORK YAY! Haha and if you havent noticed again i am verry sarcastic and hate homework alot, but this vlogging stuff is really cool and fun to do =)

Well..alrighty then ill cut to the chase and start to tell you all about netbooks, and mostly my opinion about them =).

If you are in highschool and you really want to make ALL your friends jealous and want to beat you up… well randomly win a FREE LAPTOP and get to use it in all your classes. Hahah well thats the way i got mine =) and i dont take it out near just anywhere, because everyone wants to know where you got, why didnt i get one, how come you got one im soooo much cooler than you and better at computers (yea my “friends” said that to me). I just say i “It was random and i got lucky =)” but on the inside im saying “HAHAHAH SUCKER!! I GOT A LAPTOP and YOUU DIDNT!!! ” and i say that in my head with a very grown up taunting voice. Hahah but really when i finally got the netbook on the first day of school i was sooooo excited!!! And dying for 3rd block to come…finally when the time came to pick up the laptops my soooo nice teacher noticed i was the most excited soo she gave me my laptop close to the last person, hahah jk jk my teacher is very nice *looks around the classroom* ad i reaaaally mean it =) Well now i have my netbook and…its..SOOO ANNOYING but really kool at the same time. For example a few minutes ago in my house i was trying to connect to the wireless connection and it said there was none!! When on my moms laptop she had excellent connection, like dude what the heck. Then, on the other it has this kick butt camera/web cam where i can take pictures, and while im taking picture i can give myself a mustache or a werewolf head hahah goooo times =D. Also the netbook comes in really handy when i want to look something up when the teacher says something in class and expects everyone to know what the heck they are talking about. For the record i always know the teacher is talking about pshhh… im..im just checking to make sure i fully understand what they are saying is all! Gosh dont get me wrong highschoolers are very smart they just don’t always catch on as fast…haha wow i just insulted myself hah oh well!

Back to topic about netbooks! The last big thing i really like about netbooks is they replace all those pooping (i dont know if i can use bad words) huge book that teens have to carry around in our bookbags!! And they are also the reason for teens and back problems, i say netbooks are the books of the future
