Book Review: The Adoration of Jenna Fox, Mary E. Pearson. Rated: PG-13

Jenna has just come out of a coma that took a year of her life away. Actually it's worse than that, it took her whole life away. She remembers nothing of her past, or of the accident that caused the coma. And no one in her family will tell her about it. What happened to Jenna that took her memory away? Jenna is determined to find out, but can she handle the truth?

This is an amazing book. Just amazing. It explores the ethics of future medicine, identity, and faith. This is a christian book, in my opinion. Lot's of christian values. It's beautifully written, keeping you reading. even though there is not any adventure, the mystery is gripping. This book is totally different from anything else I have read, It is thought provoking and leads you wondering what you would do in Jenna, or her parents place. How far would you go?

I rate id PG-13, but just barely. the only things I had a problem with was a bit of swearing, a scene were someone wear there pants very loosely, and a self defense scene in which someone gets racked, but other than that it's a very good book. Not much gore. some of the things that people do is questionable, but that goes along with the whole ethics and moral thing. no inappropriate elements besides, the scenes mentioned above, not even a lot of romance, except maybe two quick kisses, and one real kiss.

So I would suggest this to people who like mystery. A good age to read this, probably at least twelve, thirteen would be better. Not because of the swearing, but because it's, like Matched, rather mature, but not in the inappropriate sense. So thats my review, thanks for reading, Bye Bri π
Rated PG-13 for mild swearing and slight mature content.

Bannana?

I asked JJ what to write about and she said a banana. So here ya go. Banana's are good. Always bring a banana to a party. Ok done with banana's now. Now she says to write about the ceiling, well, it's blue. With clouds. I'm not outside, I'm in the basement and the ceiling was designed to look like the sky. um..... I'm listening to adventures in Odessy. Whit's identity got stolen, ooh..... well, not much is left to say. I want to do something a bit more interesting but i can't think of anything so, what ever. Bye, Bri π

hello's

HIIIIIII!!!!!! so, how ya doin'? I do well. we have a BUNCH of cats, three, to be exact. And Two dogs. any way. not much else to say. Um...... my cat Ten is in my room, probably crying his little head off. I'm gonna go up there in a bit to clean and work and draw. sorry for such a short post. bye Bri π

Hey!!!!

Hi, sorry I haven't posted in a while, busy busy busy. Anyway, I'm getting a cat!! Yay! We thought it was a girl so I named it Tena, but Tena turned out to be Ten, meaning it's a boy. Oh well, I still love him. I'm getting him tomorrow, so I'm excited!! He's a brown and gray tabby, he's very pretty. And he likes me!!!! but I'm paying for his medical stuff (except getting him fixed) and so I'm a bit low on funds, I'm even using a gift card to walmart to pay for cat food. :P so.... this brings me to my next thing, I'm going to start selling my art :) I need the money for stuff, (like birthday presents, christmas presents, shopping trips with friends ;) etc.) I've already been commissioned by some people, and am working on their paintings as we speak ( NOT literally) I'm not taking commissions from here, but if i know you and you want a painting, then yeah!! talk to me! So that's whats going on now. bye I'll talk later, Bye Bri π

The Sailor's Prayer

Though my sails be torn and tattered
And my mast be turned about
Let the night wind chill me to my very soul
Though the spray might sting my eye
And the stars no light provide
Give me just another morning light to hold

I will not lie me down, this rain a-ragin'
I will not lie me down, in such a storm
And if this night be unblessed, I shall not take my rest
Until I reach another shore

If the only water left
Is but salt to wound my thirst
I will drink the rain that falls so steady down
And though night's blindness be my gift
And there be thieves upon my drift
I will thank the fog that shelters me along

Though my mates be drained and weary
And believe all hopes are lost
There's no need for their bones
On that blackened bottom
Though death waits just off the bough
We'll not answer to him now
He shall stand to greet the morning light without us

My random thoughts: Celebrity crushes.

Ok, so random thought time. You know how EVERYONE has a celebrity crush? yeah well, i was at a sleep over last night and every one was all like "OMG! Jonny Depp is so HOT! "Isn't Orlando Bloom just so cute?!" and "David tenant is soooo sexy" well, I'm sitting there thinking, what do these thirty to fifty some odd year old actors think of being called cute, hot and sexy by a bunch of teenage girls? I mean, are they flattered? are they creeped out? I mean, some of the actors being mentioned had girl friends or wives, so.... it's just a little creepy.  How would you feel if you were a married, middle aged dude, and a bunch of fifteen year old girls kept calling you hot, sexy, and cute? And then there's the thirty year old women having crushes on eighteen, nineteen twenty year old actors,  wouldn't you be just a little freaked out? I'm not saying people should stop having celebrity crushes, I'm just saying keep it to a minimum. Like if you ever actually met them, act civilized and intelligent,  not like a love struck fan girl. That would probably freak anyone out. Just saying, it's a little creepy for teenage girls to be swooning of guys who could be their fathers. This goes for teenage boys too, if you have a celebrity crush, try to act civilized about it. Not all creepy stalker-ish. This has been my random thoughts, bye Bri π
