Diary of a Wimpy Kid

Diary of a Wimpy Kid is a book by Jeff Kinney.It's about how wimpy kid Greg is going to middle school a place where they mix teens and kids. The illustrations are very funny and so is Greg. Not only is school bad but at home he has a older brother named Rodrick and younger brother named Manny, and on top of all that he has to worry about the cheese touch. I rate this 5 out of 5 stars.

Cookbook Review

I got a new cookbook.. it is titled..The Complete Cookbook, Vegetarian Tasty Recipes for Every Day . It is a decent cookbook..The price was great about 7$ at Barnes and Nobles.. and even cheaper on Amazon.com(If you don't mind waiting)  I love that it has tons of pictures.  I also love that it has the nutrition information on the book.  This helps me try to watch my calorie intake.  The instructions are easy to follow.  I will update this post when I have cooked more with the cookbook.

The Hunger Games

The Hunger Games is one of the more recent books that we have read as a family.   We have read the trilogy completely and seen the move.   I loved reading the first book, The Hunger Games, it was great.  The second book, "Catching Fire" was a good read as well.  When I read, "Mocking Jay", I thought the series lost a lot.  I found the third book to be kind of depressing,  I found that the series really needed a strong presence of a happy joyful Peeta in it for me to enjoy it.   However it is still worth reading.

Recently we went to the movie.  We loved it.  It was as true as it could have been.. especially in the 2-3 hours they were allowed for a movie.
