   I heart you, You haunt me by Lisa Schroeder Ava has a boyfriend who dies. She has trouble with life.

In I heart you, You haunt me, there is a main character named Ava. And her boyfriend dies of drowning. They were head over heels in love. His name was Jackson. In the book Ava was first trying to get back to him. And she cried and cried and cried. She wouldn’t talk to anyone. She would just lay on her bed and in her room. And her friends would call her and text her but she just wouldn’t talk. She was devasted. But by the end she just wanted to get away from him. He haunted her. Everytime she either talked to a boy or went out with a boy he would have a tantrum. (as a ghost of course). She would come home and all of her clothes were on the floor. And layed out on her bed. And she would just laugh. She kew Jackson had a temper and was the jealous type.

    She ended up getting over Jackson. She met a boy named Lyric. She thought it would be love like her and Jackson from the minute she set eyes on him. Their loves was true. Ava still couldn’t think of the pain that she would be feeling if Jackson did this to her though. So she took a break from Lyric and went home to see if Ghost Jackson would work. But it didnt and Lyric was real. A real boy that she could touch, feel and talk too. She couldn’t talk to a ghost and kiss a ghost or even hug a ghost. She wanted a real life boyfriend.

  I really loved this book. Probably one of my favorites up to date. Its so thrilling and exciting and just so romantic. I would give this a 5 star rating! If you don’t like poetry much then don’t read this. The whole book is poetry. But i loved it!

This was at least one of my favorite books. Its about love and romantic. Jordan Starling, lied about her summer romance because her bestfriend had a boyfirend and she didnt. So, she lied and said she had a “secret boyfriend.” And she pretended that her boyfriend was a old family friend that she liked. But, the problem was that he lived 2,000 miles away in Texas. His name was Ryan Elliot. And that was Jordans dream boy.

When she was a child her and Ryan used to be together all the time because Ryan’s mother Beth was friends with Jordans mother. And ever since her mother got a call from Beth Elliot Jordan has been starring at the one photograph of Ryan in a old photo album. And one girl from school could just about ruine her whole plan about her “Secret boyfriend.” She couldnt let one girl named Jennifer ruine her FAKE summer romance. So she needed a better plan ASAP. Jordan just wished that her imaginary Ryan would actually come all the way down from Texas and be realistic. He is real but, Jordan and him didnt have a perfect summer romance like everyone else in her highschool did. She wanted to be like everyone. Even her bestfriend Laurie had a summer romance and his name was Wade Matthews. So her wish came true. Ryan came down with his mother because of a horrible divorce with Beth and Ryans father.  Jordan didnt know what to do. All of her friends even Jennifer were going to go after him and ask him about Jordan and how there “fake summer romance” came out to be. So Jordan had to make a plan and make it good. On the bright side Jennifer and Laurie didnt talk to him a lot. And Jordan made up a lie that Ryan broke her heart. And since Laurie and Jordan were bestfriends Laurie was going to talk to him about it. But, Jordan stopped her.

Ryan and Jordan went on walks to the park. And talked and Jordan couldn’t take it anymore. She had to tell Ryan what had been going on. So she did and Ryan wasn’t happy with her and he told his mom he wanted to move. His mother of course told him it would be fine if they did. I mean they did want there own house or apartment. And Jordan felt horrible. And the ending is a secret. Just like the book title My Secret Boyfriend.

The hunger games is a very belly dropping story, you are on the edge of your seat waiting for the best part to come. The author Suzanne Collins keeps you wanting to read more. I couldnt keep my eyes off the book. It’s very exciting, sad, scary and interesting. So many emotions you feel reading through the poor girl who they call Katniss’s story. So now on, when you are reading my story you are in the Hunger Games.

Katniss and Peeta are the main characters to me. They both have hard lives because there district is poor. There district number is 12. Peeta has a abusive mother and his father owns a bakery. So he always has food to put on the table such as bread and goods. Katniss lives with her little sister Prim and her mother. Her father died in a mine accident a few years ago. She was very close with her father and the day he died was sad. Katniss knew she had to take over. Her mother was weak with her emotions and couldnt’t be the boss of the house. Katniss had to take over and she hunts and gets food for the family.

Every year, all of the districts get put into the Hunger Games. The capitol chooses 1 boy and 1 girl from each district to fight. If you are 12 your name gets put in once. When you are 13 your name gets put in twice and so on. They put all of the names in a big bowl and then on a certain day they pick. So many children get ripped away from their families. Only 1 boy and only 1 girl win the Hunger Games but, they have to be from the same district.

Soon they were all in the arena and were fighting but Katniss was alone. She got in a tragic fire accident. She had several burns and 6 inches of her hair was burned off. The next day, she got special ointment to heal her burns. She got them from a sponsor. She was so appreciative. Then, she met a girl named Rue. She reminded Katniss of Prim. Then, Katniss got stuck in a horrible bee sting attack. She twitched and twisted and turned all night long. She couldn’t sleep. Rue gave her a special leaf that made the bee stings heal fast. Soon, Katniss was better but then she was worrying about her food and drink supply. She was running low on both. That wasn’t good.

After, she knew that Rue was her responsibility. But, soon Rue didnt need it because she passed away from getting in a trap that the Careers made. Soon, a spear was in her heart. Katniss decorated her body with flowers and soon the HoverCraft was there to take Rue away sadly. Katniss was on her own. She worried a lot about staying alive. She always was negative about everything. She always thought on the bad side not the good side.That didnt help her. Katniss was doing well except, she needed water ASAP. She was growing dehydrated.

I cannot tell you the ending to the story you will need to read the book to figure it out. The book will lure you in her life. You will feel like you are Katniss and your fighting to death in the annual Hunger Games.
