Breaking Dawn

Over winter break I started the fourth book of the Twilight series called Breaking Dawn by Stephanie Meyer. I have already blogged about the three other books so I though I would start on this one. This book is packed with action and I’m only a fourth of the way through it. It starts off with Bella and her new car. One of the deals before Bella could change into a vampire that she had made to Edward was for him to by her a car. She followed that one and drove around in her newly updated car. Another deal was that they had to get married before she could be changed. They end up getting married and having a fancy wedding planned by Alice of course. Soon after they go on there honey moon on a special island. I haven’t read that much of the book yet but I am interested in finding out what happens later on.

The EHS Parking Lot

This weekend I read the EHS newspaper, the Zephyrus. This issue was short but one article struck me than all the others! Tony Quattrini wrote an article about the EHS parking lot. Him being a senior he knows a lot about how the high school works. He stated that one of the biggest flaws was the parking lot. Each day after school releases it takes up to 30 minutes getting out of the mess of cars. Although many people have carpools set up, there is still way to many cars going out at a time. Tony also said that it use to be worse. It used to be set up that each car would go out of one SINGLE lane. Thankfully EHS came up with that solution but I still think it could go a little bit more smoothly. I completely agree with this article. I feel like we could find a better way to clear out of school!

The ending

I ended up finishing the book, The Choice, by Nicholas Sparks. It had such a sad tone to it as the book was coming to an end although it had a happy ending. As Travis walked to the hospital he knew it was the day he had to make the choice. One day while Travis and Gaby were coming home from an event it was pouring rain and they got in a car accident. Travis had minor injuries while Gaby on the other hand fell into a coma. For three months Travis mourned and hoped that the day she would wake up would be soon. It never came. The doctors told him once three months were up Travis could make a decision whether to cut the feeding tubes from Gaby or put her in another location out of the hospital. Although Gaby had told him if this were to ever happen, she would want him to move on, Travis had faith. A few weeks after, he got a phone call from the home Gaby was in saying that she had woken up. After not seeing each other in a while it was amazing to see each other again and I thought it was a very cute way to end the book!

NICHOLAS SPARKS

As I kept reading, The Choice by Nicholas Sparks, I found that he really does a good job of relating to peoples life. Even though the story is a unique one he asks a series of questions about love and life. It interested me at least. As the days of the week turned from Thursday to Friday Travis finds himself thinking about Gabby all the time. They go on a series of informal “dates” and soon enough Gabby starts to fall for Travis as well. They fell in love and from that moment on were obsessed with each other. Over the years of young love, they get married and have two wonderful children. One day. One accident makes a difference for the couple. At that point in Travis’ life he has to make a life-altering decision, a choice. The Choice ultimately confronts us with the most heart wrenching question of all: how far would you go to keep the hope of love alive?

The Choice

Over the break my mom suggested I read the book, The Choice by Nicholas Sparks. I had heard of his other books The Guardian, Message in a Bottle, and I am obsessed with the movie A Walk to Remember, which was based on his book, so I decided to take her offer. I am completely surprised and now I can’t wait to read his other books. The book was amazing! The way he writes is very unique and keeps you interested. The Choice is about a man named Travis Parker. He is a perfect bachelor who has the perfect life. He is a well paid veterinarian, lives in a waterfront home in small-town North Carolina, and has a great group of friends. All of his friends have gotten married and have nice sized families. They always nag him about not having a girlfriend and he wonders when he will finally find the one. That is, until Gabby Holland moves in next door. At first Travis tries to be friendly but she ignores the neighborly requests and tries to find something wrong with him. She had a boyfriend, right? I soon predicted that Travis wasn’t just trying to be neighborly, he really adored Gabby.
