This book was amazing not only did it help me with drawing clothing but it also discussed the different body types for both male and female. It didn't have just female style and also male and it explored some of the different stereo-type clothing. Absolute help to me, I loved this book!
I picked this book up off of my library shelf not expecting much. But the moment I started reading I was sucked into this wonderful story full of dark magic, Taggle the cat, a band of roamers and of corse Kate who is not as plain as she thinks. It kept me entertained and I loved all of the characters.

Though it is told from a child's point of view it still is very touching and you feel the pain and confusion that the Japanese felt as they were forced to stay in the containment camps. You see life before, during and after her experience inside the camp and how is always seemed to stay with her.
I've always wanted to read a gothic, truly vampire story, and I've always heard Anne Rice was the one who made those books possible. I never really thought that I would find her book "Interview with the Vampire" at my school library, but when I did I was estatic. I devored and finished the book in a day and a half and I now know what a real vampire story is. Anne Rice crafted a masterpiece when she wrote this book. I highly reccomend you read it!

Every year since about 6th or 7th grade, my teachers made me read a book on the Holocast. I hated them for that, I hated reading about the Holocaust. It was morbid, barbaric, terrifying, and tragic. To this day I still detest reading about the Holocaust, but my 10th grade teacher had us read Night, and it widened my view a bit more and I wasn't as narrow minded. Though I knew this I realized all the more how much the victims probably hated talking about it, hated reading about it and over all hated experiencing it. Probably one of the best books about the Holocaust I've ever read.
