I Was Here by Gayle Forman

"You had a pile of rocks, and you cleaned them up pretty and made a necklace. Meg got jewels, and she hung herself with them." -Gayle Forman, I Was Here

Well I wasn't expecting to finish this book in one day but HERE WE ARE.

I love Gayle Forman's writing. Her stories are so powerful and interesting to read about. 

Cody is astonished when she discovers her friend Meg has committed suicide. Meg’s parents ask Cody to go to Meg’s school and pack up her thing, which is where Cody discovers Meg held a very different life than the one she told Cody. Due to a weird phrasing in Meg’s suicide note, Cody investigates the circumstances of Meg’s death and discovers she was involved in a chat room where the participants support other users in taking their own lives. Cody becomes obsessed with one user in particular, and thinks they may hold the answers to her friend’s death

 Suicide is a very popular topic in the young adult genre, and normally a topic I stay away from. But when I saw this book with the pretty cover I couldn’t resist.

The plot was very different and unique and it was really interesting, I had to know the ending. The more I read and discovered, the more I wanted to know. It was fast-paced but had so many intense moments. Most of the characters were realistic and I did like Cody. I wasn't too attached to any of the characters. Ben was one of the characters that I felt wasn't realistic at all. All of Cody's other friends were so real and awesome! But at times, I had to stop reading and take a break from the intense situations. 

I had mixed feelings about this book but I learned so much. It was really different and now I know a little bit about those who deal with depression.  This book was really dark and it's not one of those cute contemporary books. 

Basically, I really connected with this book and loved it. I realize this book might not be for everyone, but as I always say about books, you never know until you try.

Some people who reach out for help sometimes reach to the wrong person or place, and it’s important to remember that suicide is not the answer. It gets better, it did for me, it will for you. No matter how you feel, there are people who care about you, whether you know it or not, whether you believe it or not.

The Age of Miracles by Karen Thomas Walker

“And this one fact seemed to point to other facts and others still: Love frays and humans fail, time passes, eras end.” - Karen Thomas Walker, The Age of Miracles

It took me forever to finish this book, and to be honest, I don't really know why. But now I'm here to tell you my opinion.

The main character, Julia, is twelve years old girl like any others. She has plenty of teenage problems that she has to faces. To choose the right shape of bra, deal with her other, prettier classmates and, of course, her first love Seth Moren, who barely knows she exist. Her best friend no longer talks to her, her beloved grandfather disappeared, his dad is cheating on her mom with Julia's piano teacher. Her life can be consider to tragedy. But all this is just background of the biggest catastrophe that can possible happen to human race.

In the beginning it looks like every other day. But it's not. The Earth is spinning more and more slowly. Days are longer, night are longer and people are separated to two groups. Those, who recognize old time, meaning: One day is equal to 24 hours. This group also include Julia and her parents. And then there are those who recognize the new time. Meaning: Days re longer, night are longer and finally the day and night lasts a whopping 72 hours! Those people think that their bodies will adapts. But soon both groups will find out, that none of these works.

Funny, sad, interesting, savvy and sassy dystopian story about world we don't know anything about.

 In the end, you need to think about the book for a while. At the beginning you say: "What the heck? This is the book I spend my money for? No, thanks." Trust me when I say, more you think about the story, more you love it.

Yes, Julia is annoying at the times, she thinks that she ate all the wisdom of the world, doesn't really know about what's going on around her and the biggest catastrophe for her is her unrequited love, but tell me, who twelve years old girl is not like that?

I think, that author could make Julia little older, but in the end is still doesn't matter. Every character is special and interesting in their own way. Mother, whose acting career only includes shampoo commercials, father, gynecologist, who loves both of them, but just want more, grandfather who always talk just about his two years in Alaska, and is getting ready for end of the World, best friend who left, then came back, pretending Julia doesn't exist or little girl who fell in love with a boy on the Internet.

While I was reading the book I had mixed feelings. There were parts where I couldn't take my eyes off the pages, and then there were parts where I preferred to put the book away. But that doesn't mean the book wasn't good.  Or that it was just good.

Like the book says: "An unforgettable novel about growing up in the background of completely changed world"
