three in one

I like books! So I checked out the hugest pile ever from the library!! The first was Uglies. It was way sweet, and its the first in a trilogy so i got the library to order the 2nd one. It's Earth in the future. Normal humans have slightly died out, and now are dying out more, because when they reach they age of 16 they get a surgery to make them not Ugly (normal looking)anymore. The surgery makes their eyes big and doe-like, their lips big, etc. And pretty much they look like Angelina Jolie. The main character is Tally. She's mischievious and gets in to trouble. Which threatens her chances at surgery. But then she meets a hot guy living in the Smoke (where uglies run away to, when they don't want the surgery) and he tells her the ugly secret about the surgeries. It is grand and action packed. I just kept wanting to read it forever. Like Harry Potter or something!! Crazy! Anywho, so the next one, is Girl, 15, Charming but Insane. It's a British novel about Jess Jordan. She's 15 obviously, and hilarious. It's freaking funny! There's one part where she stuffs her bra with bags of minestrone and then a guy grabs her boobs, since they're so big, and they pop and squirt soup everywhere! It's completely silly, but cute. Next is Double Helix. It was kind of hard to understand sometimes, because it's very science-y, but very good!! The kid, Eli Samuels' mother has Huntingtons disease (they slowly go insane) and he then he gets this job at Wyatt Transgenics. But his Dad has quite a bit of hatred for Dr. Wyatt, but won't tell Eli why. Then Eli meets Kayla Matherson, who is staying with Dr. Wyatt. And slowly, Eli uncovers one layer after another of the truth about Dr. Wyatt's genetic-engineering experiments and their connection to his parents, Kayla, and himself. Plus it has a sweet hang-on-the-edge-of-your-seat ending. So there you go. Some sweet books. YUP! Alrighty! Love ya, DANLEE
