  This month, I've mostly been studying and getting ready for finals, so whenever I wanted to read, I needed a book that I could pick up for a few minutes, get through some pages, and put back down easily. That's exactly what "The Numbers Game, Why Everything You Know About Soccer Is Wrong" gave me. The book was filled with many charts and infographics that made the book a quick read perfect for any spare time. In addition, the chapters were split into smaller sections for different statistics, which added to the fluidity of the book.  The book in general was formatted around facts, which were then supported by graphs which made it much easier to visualise the facts, and half a page to a page going more in-depth on the graph.  The most interesting fact I learned from this book was the fact that corner kicks are essentially useless. In soccer whenever a team gets a corner kick, it's usually thought of as one of the best opportunities in a game to come away with a g...

      When I had first heard of Anne of Green Gables , it wasn't the book I had heard of. There was a Netflix adaptation named  Anne With an E  that I found so interesting because of the constant excitement and new developments. This was quite a few years ago, so when I was choosing what to read next a while back I remebered this show and how I remembered hearing that it was originally a book.      Anne of Green Gables  by E. M Montgomery starts off by a girl in the late 1800s named Anne being mistakenly adopted by the Cuthbert siblings. Although the siblings wanted to adopt a boy to become a farm boy, Anne conviced the two that she would be of use. She slowly becomes accustomed to her new life and starts to go to school. At school, she starts to make friends, while a boy named Gilbert also begins to tease her. Throughout the first book Anne's relationship with her classmates and her new family grows until it feels like she had always be...

           The novel Good Omens written by Nail Gaiman and Terry Prachett is a book that I started reading in the Spring, put down for 6 months and only recently finished. Although that may make it sound as though I did not enjoy the book, I actually really did! So here is what it’s about and why you should read it! Good Omens is a comedy about the apocalypse. Its writing style is unlike any other book I have ever read, with an almost self aware type of narration that is constantly feeding jokes(it is debated if that narrator is meant to be the voice of God), and footnotes that are meant to be funny. The perspective is constantly rotating between different characters, however the main two characters are Aziraphale and Crowley, an angel and a demon(otherwise known as an angel who did not so much Fall as Saunter Vaguely Downwards).  The story follows closely the friendship between the two completely contrary supernatural beings. It opens with them w...
