Hi!
I want to tell you about my favourite book "The Host" by Stephenie Meyer

Storyline
A race of aliens who are non corporeal go from planet to planet looking for hosts. They come to Earth and basically take over human bodies. Now it's believed that once they take over a body all memories of the previous inhabitant are gone. And there are some humans who have remain hidden from them and are basically a resistance movement. So an alien charged with locating them known as the Seeker captures one of them a girl named Melanie and puts one of them who is known as Wanderer in her body, in hopes of finding out where the humans are. But Melanie for some reason is still there and she convinces Wanderer not to say anything to Seeker. Wanderer feels empathy for the humans. When Seeker is disappointed at her lack of progress, she informs Wanderer that she'll be removed and placed in a new host and she will be placed in Melanie. Melanie knowing she can't convince her the way she convinced Wanderer convinces Wanderer to run away and they can meet with the humans. Eventually they find...

Also I really love The Hunger Games trilogy, these are my favourite books as well. Speaking about poetry I personally don't enjoy it as much as books, but this is one of my favourite poems by M. Tsvetaeva

Вам одеваться было лень,
И было лень вставать из кресел.
— А каждый Ваш грядущий день
Моим весельем был бы весел.

Особенно смущало Вас
Идти так поздно в ночь и холод.
— А каждый Ваш грядущий час
Моим весельем был бы молод.

Вы это сделали без зла,
Невинно и непоправимо.
— Я Вашей юностью была,
Которая проходит мимо.

I love our English club meetings for the peaceful atmosphere and opportunity to show your creativity. So I hope we will continue these meetings and maybe other groups will also like them ^_^

On Thursday we had a nice time together talking about our favourite books and poetry.
The atmosphere was special, because everyone told us about literature, that means something for him or her.
I discovered some really talanted poets, as well as my classmates did.
I think, it's a great idea to have such meetings at the end of each term.
They help us to widen our horizons in themes we're really interested in. And of course they are a good ability to relax.

I remember how impressed I was by the book "The long walk".
It has someting in common with "The Hunger Games", what do you think?

On Thursday we had a nice time, we were talking about our favourite books and authors.
Everyone had an oportunity to retell about his favourite book and poem. I discovered many books, and I think, I will read them in the future.
I was very glad to have this meeting because children could find out about interesting books, where they could find something they wanted.
I think, it will be  perfect, if sometimes we have some meetings like it.

This English club was great. We had a really good time talking about our favourite writers, books, poetry. 
As for me I discovered a lot of new books that I want to read. I think everyone learns something interesting. I hope we will have more meetings like that.
By the way I want to tell you about my favourite book: "Metro 2033" by Dmitry Glukhovsky.



The book tells us that  In 2013, a nuclear war occurred, forcing a large amount of Moscow's surviving population to relocate to underground metro stations in search
of refuge from the outside world. Eventually, those who settled in the
underground train stations evolved their homes into independent
station-countries. Soon, new factions grew, ranging from the independent
"Rangers" to the communist "Red Line" faction to the "Fourth Reich"
which constantly engages in skirmishes with the former group. As these
small states began to evolve, the Red Line and the Fourth Reich entered a
permanent state of war, as both sought to control the metro and its
resources. As the war raged, those stations who refused to join either
side were massacred by the militants, raided by bandits, or outright
destroyed by the Dark Ones - paranormal, otherworldly, mutated humans
who live on the ravaged surface.

That theme really interested many people all over the world and a lot of writers started writing on this theme. Today there are nearly 47 books  and two computer games on this theme and they are not only about Moscow but also about Kyiv, Crimea, Finland And a lot of other places. I advise you to read at least  one of these books. I bet that you will enjoy it

Vadim, your message really interested me.
I enjoy books written in this genre, especially if the action happens in
some place familiar to me. And I like reading book about surviving.
So, I think, I’m going to read some of these books.

Vadim, your book really interested me. I think the plot is really exciting, I like such kinds of books and it's always interesting to read what people think will happen in the future, but these are just author's thoughts and fantasy. Recently I enjoy surviving ideas in books or films a lot. So I think I'll read this book next.

Vadim, you showed the book that day and thank you for it.
I enjoy it. Interesting book and I`d like to reed the book and play the game Metro 2033.

Vadim, that's a really good book, I think, but I haven't read it yet  I haven't finished reading one book. This history will be next ^^
One of my friends was project manager of the game 'Metro 2033'.

Vadim, I like your message so much!
Because I like these books and I've read it.
I am really interested in the future and I hope that we won't have as future as in these books.
But there are really very interesting!)

Hi everyone!)
I think, that on Thursday we had a really good day!) I like books and poems so much and as for me it's very necessary to read and be interested in this. Everyone had told about his favourite book and me too. I want to say that I really like a book "The hungry games" which was presented by Stacy because it's very interesting and fantastic! And this film is magnifecent too!) I hope that we will have more and more books like this one. 
I like poems too and my favourite poet is Asadov. I posted some his poems a month ago and my friend Sonya posted some his poems too. 
I hope you will like our information and photos!)
Good reading and luck,
Masha^_^

Hello!
Thursday was interesting day, because friends told about favorite books and the books are amazing!
I like Vadim`s book but I hope it`s not about future.
My favorite book is "Sensey" by Russian writer Anastasia Novyh. 
This book about a girl who is ill and she with friends and they find school of martial fight. And there is a man who tell them about sense of life, about meditations, soul, energy and what is a human. Later the girl is alive and healthy.
The book is fantastik and instructive.

Hi!
We had a nice  time on Thursday, we talked about favourite books and poetry. 
My favourite book is "The Catcher in the Rye " written by J.D. Selinger.
This book is about a boy (Holden), who describes his life. 

Holden's story begins at Pencey Prep on the day of the big football game. Instead of going to the game, Holden, who has just been expelled for failing four of his five classes, visits Mr. Spencer, his history teacher. Mr. Spencer lectures Holden about playing by the rules and thinking about his future. Holden pretends to agree with what he hears, but actually thinks Mr. Spencer is a "phony." Back in his dorm room, Robert Ackley, Holden's irritating neighbor, interrupts Holden as he tries to read, and Ward Stradlater, Holden's conceited and good-looking roommate heads out for a date with Jane Gallagher, a girl Holden knows and likes. Before he leaves, Stradlater asks Holden to write an English composition for him while he's away. Holden writes about his dead brother Allie's baseball mitt....

If you are interested in this short beginning you should read it!

Also, I like Masha's favourite book "The Master and Margarita". It's an incredibly and very exciting story!

Ann Tretiakova

'Sergey Esenin's flamboyant personality, peasant origins, and craving for self-destruction have forever canonized him as Russia's favorite "hooligan poet." Esenin died at the age of 30, tired of life and poetry. His suicide, still a mystery, triggered a wave of suicides among his fervent adepts. The novelty and magnitude of his continues to astonish his readers.' Here you can read more: http://russiapedia.rt.com/prominent-russians/literature/sergey-esenin/
I totally agree with written words. He's an extraordinary person who does not fit into the framework of concepts.Here's one of my favourite poems:

Я обманывать себя не стану

Я обманывать себя не стану,
Залегла забота в сердце мглистом.
Отчего прослыл я шарлатаном?
Отчего прослыл я скандалистом?

Не злодей я и не грабил лесом,
Не расстреливал несчастных по темницам.
Я всего лишь уличный повеса,
Улыбающийся встречным лицам.

Я московский, озорной гуляка.
По всему тверскому околотку
В переулках каждая собака
Знает мою легкую походку.

Каждая задрипанная лошадь
Головой кивает мне навстречу.
Для зверей приятель я хороший,
Каждый стих мой душу зверя лечит.

Я хожу в цилиндре не для женщин.
В глупой страсти сердце жить не в силе.
В нем удобней, грусть свою уменьшив,
Золото овса давать кобыле.

Средь людей я дружбы не имею.
Я иному покорился царству.
Каждому здесь кобелю на шею
Я готов отдать мой лучший галстук.

И теперь уж я болеть не стану.
Прояснилась омуть в сердце мглистом.
Оттого прослыл я шарлатаном,
Оттого прослыл я скандалистом.

I also found a tranlation of this poem into English. You can read it, is you're interested:

I will not deceive myself

I will not deceive myself,
admittingI have worries in my heart, so dreary.
Why am I reputed as a cheating
Crook and trouble-maker, really?

I am not a villain nor a thief in hiding,
And I never shot imprisoned convicts.
I am just a thoughtless  idler, smiling
Friendly and avoiding conflicts.

I am a naughty reckless Moscow loner.
All along the main street, and around,
Every little dog  in every corner
Knows me by the way I tread the ground.

Every jade I meet, rundown and hopeless,
Gives me nods of hail and salutation.
I am a friend of animals, my verses
Are as good for them as medication.

I don"t wear my hat to charm the ladies
For I can"t stand featherbrained emotions.
It"s convenient to use my hats as ladles
Filling them with oats to feed the horses.

I do not  have friends among the people,
It"s a different kingdom I am bound to.
I will gladly give my tie to simple
Shaggy dog I happen to encounter.

From now on I will be safe and sound.
In my heart a sunny day is breaking.
That"s the reason why they tend to count
Me to be a crook and trouble-maker.

I haven't got any books, which I love, unfortunately. But there's one trilogy that I like. Of course you know it well :))

Hello=)
Vadym, i also play game Metro 2033 and i would like to read this book. 
Inna, your poem which you like is very cool, but it is sad. I like happy poems with good end=)) 
Also, i like humoresques. Because  I think we must live in fun every day. My favourite writter is Pavlo Glasoviy.
Here on one of the humoresques:
— Дві години стежу я за тобою, друже. 
Видно, в тебе до жінок серце не байдуже. 
Походжаєш по піску чи в ріку заходиш — 
Від зеленого грибка ока не відводиш. 
Що привабило тебе? Загорілі дами 
Чи тонесеньке дівча з чорними бровами? 
— Відчепися! Я дивлюсь виключно в ту точку, 
Де поклав свої штани, туфлі і сорочку.

Thank's for your attention)

Hey guys! I really like our Club meeting. It was a great idea to discover someone's personality by reading his or her favorite books or poetry.
And now I wanna present my fav book.
It's 'Quo Vadis' by Henryk Sienkiewicz.
This is a historican novel.
It takes place in the city of Rome under the rule of emperor Nero.
The novel tells of a love that develops between a young Christian woman, Ligia and Marcus Vinicius, a Roman patrician.
As a whole, Quo Vidis carries an outspoken pro-Christian message.
It came out in book form in 1896 and has since been translated into more than 50 languages. This novel contributed to Sienkiewicz's Nobel Prize for literature in 1905.

Hi everybody That was really interesting club meeting I like Katya's book I am going to read it soon. I think we should have more such meetings. And we can talk about lot of interesting things.
