7,000 FLIPPING VIEWS?! What the HECK?! It’s only

been a DAY! WOW! AMAZING! KEEP IT COMING, 

DUDES! W()()T!! :D >_< Niiiiiiicceee!!!!!

*Cough, cough* Other then that…

Well I got a little bored with “Breaking Dawn”…I know, weird, isn’t it? So I read a book called “The Graveyard Book” by Neil Gaiman…And I finished the book today, reading like 130 pages! It’s a great book, though it’s a little sad at the end…To me it is, at least, very sad…I’ll write a short summary for you guys >_<

The man Jack has killed three members of the Dorian family…With the baby last. When he walks into the baby’s room, he is found with nothing, and smells the baby long gone, where the scent is lost for another 14 years…

The truth is, the baby has wandered into a graveyard in Old Town, where there are many ghosts there, watching him, crawling around as Mrs.Owens takes him under her wing for a favor for his previous mum, taking care of him with her husband, Mr.Owens. Thus, they called him Nobody Owens, since they did not know his name, and Bod for short. After the ghosts having a debate if the baby should be taken care of, the Lady of the Grey gives him the Freedom of the Graveyard, which allows him to go anywhere he chooses in the graveyard.

His guardian, Silas, who is nor dead or alive, brings him food and clothing for him, as the boy Bod grows up…Meeting friends such as Scarlett and Liza and Paul…And enemies like Alabanzer Boldger (I think that’s his name, though I’m not sure), and the Jacks, also Nick Farthing and Mo Quilling. With these adventures tied in between his life, in the end, Bod must face the real challenge…The man named Jack who has come back to finish his business.

It is a very good book to me, I really enjoyed it alot, though the saddest part is when Silas leaves and Scarlett’s memory is wiped, not remembering Bod for the rest of her life, after being friends with him when she was five…Woops, I said too much already. So please check out “The Graveyard Book”, I recommend it as a 5/5 for readers. I had to escape from Breaking Dawn, and “The Graveyard Book” was the perfect escape I’d been waiting for.

Cya,

Okay. Weird, but okay. So, why was it said?

because at the end he leaves the graveyard and he can’t see any of the ghosts anymore, and Silas leaves him.

Awwwwwwwwwww…………….. That’s sad. Why does he leave? And why haven’t I heard from you?

he leaves because he is old enough to take care of himself in the living world, wanting to explore and learn and be with the living.

That’s good that he can realize that he can take care of himself, though. And, can you answer my other question?

yeah, but I don’t know what you mean by it.

Don’t get what I mean by what?

Do you mean asking why I haven’t heard from you, or that he can realize that he can take care of himself?

why you haven’t “heard from me”.

I just wanted to see why I haven’t talked to you in a while, and I just wanted to see what you were up to! I mean I’m at a sleepover! I just wanted to see what you were doing over break, and if you wanted to have plans. Strike that, I think that it would be weird. But if you want to…. Sorry, I’m going on and on. Let me know what you think!

uh, have fun.

1. Is that like the “okay that’s odd”, okay, or the “oh, okay”, okay?
2. Nobody can! Well, I’ve checked the site like 12 times!
3. Of course you wouldn’t! You wouldn’t know it if it bit you in the butt! Sorry, that was kinda mean. But, it actually sounds fun!

1. The second one. 2. Sorry. 3. I’m used to it.

1. No shocker there.
2. No biggy.
3. Think of Grease, but with a dance floor and no shoes!
