Isaiah's Bucketlist

1. The Hunger Games (series)- Suzanne Collins: Based on the popularity of the books and the movie I thought this would be a great read. In the first of the two books of the series I have read the books show the people trying to survive in harsh districts. On top of that a government picks out random drawings for the hunger games, the games which every person that was chosen has to compete against each other and against their surroundings.
2. Thirteen Reasons Why-Jay Asher: The story is set in a high school that in a way sounds like ours except a girl commits suicide and leaves behind 13 reasons why she did it. I Believe this may relate a lot to our school and the drama that goes around it. It can also relate to last year when a lot of teens died around  the school year, this could get in depth of why some teens take their own life.
3. The Book Thief-Markus Zusak: This story takes place during world war two that is a main reason I want to read it. Most stories that are involved with a war seem to have more action than other books and they don't usually just focus on war they focus on the emotions that the people are feeling from it. By the title I predict that this could be about a person who steals books in world war two to forget about the on going war.
4. The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Night-Time-Mark Haddon: A friend told me this book was a good read. It involves a kid with autism who not only overcomes what people believe he can't but he also solves a mystery about who kills his neighbor's dog. I was told that it was a very touching story that should be read by everyone.
5. Clockwork Prince-Cassandra Clair: Watching the video about the book I became very intrigued about it and wanted to read it. It seemed like an interesting story that could easily be made into a motion picture. This and the fact that miss Gilmore recommended it; which is always a good plus if a teacher recommends it.
6. Its A Book-Lain Smith: I wanted to read this book because of one reason it involves technology and how people are adapting to the newest things.They adapt so much that they never really take the time to pick up something like a book to just enjoy it for what it is without all the high tech gadgets.
7. Nailed-Patrick Jones: This was a book that reminded me about some of the things in our school where the jocks run most things and the outcasts stray away from them and any places that they hang out at. It seemed like a book that could relate to our school in a lot of ways.
8. Alex Rider (Series)-Anthony Horowitz: I have always wanted to read this series but I never got around to it i thought reading it would remind me of James bond because it has to do with spy's except the spy in these books is a teen and not an adult.
9. Divergent- veronica Roth: This book takes place in the future and I always like reading books about future happenings and stories so when I heard about this book and read the back I thought it would be something interesting to read.
10. Kite Runner-Khaled Husseni: Reading the back of this book I thought it would be interesting to read because of what it stands for. It stands for friendship, loyalty and friendship which is always a touching story that can touch your heart and inspire us to have a sense of loyalty to our friends.
