Hi readers! Sorry I haven't been posting much in this past year, I've just been really busy. Starting today, since I am getting older, I'm going to start reviewing books that are more for older children.
So, to all my younger fans, I'm very sorry😘
Since I've been so busy, I now will be posting at least once a month if not twice. Enjoy

Today I will be reviewing my favorite book: Divergent by Veronica Roth

This book is about a girl named Beatrice Prior who lives in a futuristic world where there are five different factions, which are kid of like different areas of the city, where everyone knows where they belong.
Except for the divergent
There is an aptitude test and a choosing ceremony. In the test they tell you which faction you would do best in.

ERUDITE: the smart and knowledgable faction
ABNEGATION: the kind and giving faction
DAUNTLESS: the brave and fearless faction
CANDOR: the faction that values honesty, no matter how much it hurts
AMITY: the peaceful and happy farmer faction

At the ceremony, Beatrice will have to make the decision that evaluates her whole life.

Hey readers! Today I'll be reviewing a book called Charlie and the Chocolate Factory by Roald Dahl.

Wait a minute. Just wait. I forgot to tell you guys something extra überexciting. I. JUST. TURNED. TEN!!!!!!!!!!!

I could actually make waaaay more exclamation points than that but I don't want to waste your time with punctuational extremism.

Back to the book. The book I read is about a boy named Charlie Bucket, who is very poor and can't even afford half a chocolate bar. One day Charlie finds a one pound note (It's set in England) on the ground. Naturally, Charlie bucket buys a chocolate bar. I forgot something earlier. There is a competition to see who can go to Willy Wonka's wonderful amazing chocolate factory. The competition is that everybody buys a chocolate bar, and five lucky children will find a golden invitation ticket inside theirs. Now tell me, can you guess what's inside Charlie's chocolate bar?

This book was a good book. Really, it was. But I have to say, as a critic, and I know this book is very famous, in my opinion, its not my favorite.

I wouldn't recommend this book to anybody that want to read about a big adventure, but if you are looking for something witty about a boy, a ticket and lots and lots of chocolate, this is definitely the book for you!!!

Roald Dahl was a great man and today, I would like to honor him.
