The Notebook
Nicholas Sparks
She stepped out, patted Clem on the head
while she cooed at her, then turned, smiling at
Noah as he walked toward her. She looked more
relaxed than yesterday, more confident, and
again he felt a slight shock at seeing her. It was
different from yesterday, though. Newer feelings
now, not simply memories anymore. If anything,
his attraction for her had grown stronger
overnight, more intense, and it made him feel a
little nervous in her presence.


Although I have not finished this book yet I would have to say that If you are looking for a romantic story, this definitely the book for you. The author sustains a sort of understanding as
to how romance really affects peoples lives. I also love his setting he has it in the 1940's in a sequestered part of North Carolina, which totally gives the story the romantic setting. Then how his characters has this perpetual love that can,t be stopped.

So all in all I would recommend this book to high-schoolers and adults who love to read romantic stories. Then if I had to rate this book I would definitely give it a ten.

In Praise of Ducks
Karen Shepherd

I can hardly say enough in praise of our
experience with Khaki Campbell ducks.
We first got them about a year and a half
ago. They do fine on kitchen waste and
bugs they forage for themselves, so they
eat a lot less commercial feed than you'd
think. Our two females have each laid an
average of more than 4 pounds of eggs
per month for more than a year now. They
provide all the eggs our family of two can
use, and they are the best-tasting, cream-
iest- yolked eggs we've ever tasted, too.
I'd especially like to recommend ducks
to those who live in the Pacific Northwest
like we do. You'll never be unhappy to
see a slug or snail in your garden again,
as they will now become invaluable treats
for your duckies.

I like this article, because first ducks are cute and second
because they are useful. So I found this interesting, because
I never knew ducks laid edible eggs. But this is pretty much all
I like about this article.

How to Get Rid of Pimples Overnight
Robert Sheehan

It is true treating pimples needs both patience and
persistence, but sometimes time is the thing you are
short of. You desperately need them off your face at
any cost; the world seems almost cruel otherwise. You
almost feel like tearing your hair out thinking of how to
get rid of pimples overnight and it is fro situations like
these that there are over the counter drugs and ointments.

Some home remedies however can rid you of pimples
sometimes overnight and even if not overnight by not
more than half a day.

You could use the white of an egg to dab on your pimple.
Once left on fro around 20 minutes it usually helps and
dries up the pimple. Another unique method would be to
apply toothpaste; preferably not the gel type on the pimple
and it has the same effect.

Your skin is unique and different from everyone else's and
therefore you should remember that what works for someone
else might not work for you. Therefore, it would be advisable if
you try out the different methods beforehand to know which one
suits you.

I like this article because the writer chose something that relates to other people
and not just teens. He then gives you advice as to cure it without buying special
cosmetics, and suggests home remedies that save you money. So to me this article is
amazing.
