My Recent Obsession...

Image
 Everyone has obsessions. It doesn't matter what it is, as long as something is consuming your mind, it is an obsession. For me, my obsessions have changed as I have read, watched, and heard different things. In the past I have been obsessed with The Beatles, Sherlock (the BBC TV series), Stranger Things (the Netflix TV series), Hunger Games, and Harry Potter.  Now, I still do love all of these things, but recently, I have been obsessed with twenty øne piløts. If you don't know what twenty øne piløts is, I suggest that you go to Spotify right now and listen to every single song they have up there. Lucky for you, they have a new album coming out in October of this year, which I am extremely excited about. Their music is SO good. Not only do their songs have a good beat, but the lyrics are so poetic and beautiful. They are actually inspiring and I can't help but listen to twenty øne piløts every chance I can get.

To Kill A Mockingbird- Book Review

Image
I actually read To Kill A Mockingbird  by Harper Lee about a month ago, but I writing about it now. This book is very good. I recommend that everyone should read it. This book is about Jean Louise Finch (or Scout). Her father, Atticus, is an attorney who must defend a black man who has been unjustly accused of a great crime, in a highly prejudice town in Alabama. This story is seen through the eyes of Scout, who is mocked for having a father who is willing to defend a black man. This book is so powerful and thought-provoking. It teaches us about racism and how hatred can hurt you and others.  Here are some things that I liked (+) and disliked (-) about this book:   + The characters feel real.   + The plot is interesting.   + I really liked reading about the playfulness of children in the late 1920s/early 1930s.    I don't think I have anything bad to say about this book. Overall rating: ***** (5/5 stars)
