Post #3

     Last week I read The Forest of Hands of Teeth written by Carrie Ryan. This doesn't count as a book towards my count, it was just a pleasure read. The story is about the life of a girl who lives her life looking through the rungs of the fence surrounding her villiage longing for the ocean. The fence is the only thing that stands between her people and the Unconsecrated, better known as zombies. The main character Mary has to decide what is more inportant to her: her survival or her home. One would have to read the story to find out where Mary winds up on her path to salvation. Songs:
1. I Will Survive- by Gloria Gaynor. I chose this song because throughout their journey Mary and her gang are doing their best to stay alive with their bodies just out of reach of the Unconsecrated.
2. My Heart Will Go On- by Celine Dion. If I explain the reasoning behind this song I would probably give away the entire book.
3. That Should Be Me- Justin Beiber (I am not a fan of his, but the song is perfect.) Throughout the story Mary encounters love troubles when she faces the realization that the man she loves marries her best friend.
4. Blink- Revive. I chose this final song because although the villiage is prepared for almost any situation, their world is turned upside down in the blink of an eye.
     The book is a thrilling page turner from start to finish. It is reccomended to mostly girls because of the lovie dovie content, but it is worth the read.
