Wonder is about a boy named Auggie who was born with a face deformity that leaves him looking very much unlike other kids his age. When he joins a school for the first time, he is shunned and mocked by most kids, but is eventually befriended by some of them. Auggie's experience not only gives him new confidence in himself, it also teaches other kids to accept and appreciate those who are different. I loved the humor that Auggie was able to create though it was in such terrible circumstances. This book really taught me to accept those around me, and also to realize how lucky I am to be who I am right now. I hope that others who read this will also be inspired!

The Fellowship of the Ring is the sequel to the Hobbit, but is technically the first book in the three-book series, the Lord of the Rings. This story takes place in Middle- Earth, a unique fantasy land that is filled with magical creatures. There's a lot of background information, but at present, a hobbit named Frodo is given an ancient ring, forged by evil, which he must destroy in a far-off land. He is accompanied by a Fellowship (group). And so begins a magical story brimming to the top with adventure, excitement, and danger! This book is great, except it's pretty hard to understand and uses large vocabulary (even I was confused at some parts!). But don't let that stop you from reading it! This is one of the great classics that is not-so-classical, which I believe everyone should read at some point. If you like fantasy and action, this is a must- read!
