Today I finished the book How to Ruin your Life and other lessons school doesn't teach you. It was about 2 girls named Katie and PJ. PJ thinks the only thing she is good at is being a athlete. Katie her best friend is good lots of things except running until one day when Katie beats PJ at a race! PJ gets jealous and Katie turns the whole school against her! Neither of them will say sorry. PJ's parents explain that it doesn't matter if you win it just matters that you try. PJ will not apologize to Katie even though her parents ask her to. The day the girls have trained for arrives... the school Field Day race. PJ has won the race ever since kindergarten and Katie has never won. PJ decides to say sorry to Katie before the race. Katie tells PJ about her plan for both of them to win the race. The race begins and the girls are tied in first place. Suddenly as they approach the finish line, PJ runs ahead of Katie and wins the race. This was not the plan they agreed on. Katie runs away to the classroom. When all the students get back to class they see that Katie has written on the board "PJ is a big fat cheater!" PJ tries to say sorry but Katie will not talk to her. When the teacher comes back she congratulates the students who entered the race. PJ stands up and says how she is sorry and she does not deserve the first place ribbon.
PJ and Katie are friends again.

Today I read Breaking Dawn. Breaking Dawn is the last book in the Twilight saga so, a lot of major things happen. The first thing you find out is that Bella's (Bella is the main character) best friend, Jacob has gone missing. Jacob just happens to be a werewolf. I read a lot about Bella and Edward's (Edward is a vampire) wedding. Bella is sort of a "Tom-Boy" who hates having to try on dresses and wear high heels and put on make-up. Sadly, this is the stuff she has to put up with before her wedding. And what is even worse is she has to put up with Alice's, Edward's sister's, upbeat opinion on these things. I stopped reading right after their wedding. In conclusion, Breaking Dawn has a lot of vital information and main events that are used throughout the whole Twilight Saga.
