Little Women

This book, by Louisa May Alcott, is about four sisters, and their hardships growing up. It talks about romances, and arguments, problems, and solutions, laughter and tears. It is good, but it is a longer and harder book. I enjoyed it although it took a while to finish it. I think female readers of any age will enjoy this book. It is a good mother daughter book.

She Said Yes

Cassie Bernall, the daughter of the author which is Misty Bernall, was shot and killed April 20, 1999. Two students in trench coats came in the school with guns and plenty of ammo, prepared to kill. Cassie was in the library. When the shooters came in, she stood up and prayed. They came over to her, and asked, "Do you believe in God?" She replied, "Yes." without a moments hesitation. They asked why, but shot her before she could reply.
This book talks about her life from her birth to her death. It is a good book, and I recommend it to any reader.
