The Three musketeers – Alexandre Dumas



I strongly believe that everyone heard about “The three musketeers”. There is no possibility to not know the famous phrase 'All for one and one for all, united we stand divided we fall.'
The story is about young man who really wanted to be one of the king’s Louis XIII musketeers
source
. At the beginning, he got into trouble, as a result he had to fight against three musketeers – Atos, Portos and Aramis; with Atos at midday, with Portos at 12:30 and with Aramis at 1 p.m. First duel was interrupted by guard of cardinal Richelieu. In this case D’Artagnan fought in one team with the three mousquetaires. That is how their friendship have started.
Every chapter is more and more interesting. We read about their dangerous adventures which are very exciting. In this novel we can find out what friendship is, loyalty, love, but also competition or betrayal.
From this story I have learnt a lot – we should follow our dreams and do everything we can to make them happen, we should work really hard. Alexander Dumas showed me that friendship is very important, and I should protect her, that loyalty is one of the most essentials qualities.
I truly recommend that book everyone and if you already read it (what is possible), it is worth to read it twice.

The Hunger Games - Suzanne Collins

I think a lot of people know The Hunger Games not because of the books but because of the films based on story of Suzanne Collins. I saw the 2 nd movie when I was in junior high school. My class wanted to see “The Hunger Games: Catching Fire” in the cinema, so I went with them. When I saw “THE END” on the screen, I was very curious what happened next, so I reached for the books. It took source me about a week to read all three books. I was delighted by the story. In Panem, every year children between 12 and 18 years old from have to take part in game which is a punishment for the districts because they rebelled against Capitol and the President. In every district by drawing is decided who will take part in The Hunger Games, it has to be one girl and one boy. When 12 years old Prim is drawn, her sister Katniss reports that she wants to be the tribute and replace Prim. Katniss is almost sure that she will never come back home

Probably you have already noticed that I like trilogies. Well, The Selection by Kiera Cass was also a trilogy. After finishing 3 rd part, Kiera Cass decided to write 4 novels which are supplement stories and then she wrote also 2 books about next heir. If you like romances, you probably like this history. source The action takes place in future after World War III. There is no more USA but a huge kingdom still divided on states. But in this world the society is also divided – by casts. The hierarchy has 8 levels – first is reserved only for royal family, second for guardians in castle etc.   America Singer is “five” that means artists. After announcing the selection and after long conversations with her mother she decided to participate – not for being queen or finding love but for family, because she will get money for every week she will survive. And what is selection about? For thirty-five girls, the Selection is the chance of a lifetime. The opportunity to escape th

Who you really are?

source It is not really easy to find your place in the world. We always looking for something and we often forget what is life really about. Not money, not fame, not power. It seems important while we live, we want more and more and it's never enough. But in life the most important are people we live with. Our family, friends... It is important to find youself, make your dreams come true. You will never satisfy all, that is not possible. The only person you have to satisfy is you, no one else. Unfortunetely, people often forget about that. They work all the time instead of spending time with their families. They pretend someone else just to achieve something they want or need. Stop here for a while. Think about yourself. Who are you? What you like? What you really want? Look at the mirror. What do you see? Do you like it? At first sight, these are not hard questions, right? Just in theory. Often these questions are the most unlikely. Why? Because we are scared the answers for t
