A book that I enjoyed and think that other people would enjoy was Pretty Little Liars by Sara Shepard. It is about four girls (Aria, Hanna, Emily, and Spencer)in high school. When they were in seventh grade, their best friend Alison was MURDERED!!! Now they are being stalked by someone who goes by the alias “A”. “A” is blackmailing them with secrets that only Alison knew and always know what they are doing. Aria, Hanna, Emily, and Spencer are freaked out by the mysterious “A” and think that it is Alison is back from the dead. This book was full of drama and twists that no one ever saw coming. Pretty Little Liars is an awesome book that makes your stomach gnaw with hunger to find out who “A” is. I suggest this book to anyone who loves suspense and drama.

My favorite book of all time was definitely Vladimire Tod, Eleventh Grade Burns. this is the fourth book in the series. The Vladimire Tod series is my favorite of all time. it’s not to easy, but not very hard, the detail is great, it’s a little graphic (I like the blood scenes) and you can connect to Vladimire as he is after all a TEENAGE vampire.

The book Life As We Knew It by Susan Pfeffer was phenominal. I can’t believe what the characters in the book have to go through. I couldn’t put this book down, it was so good. If I were in Miranda, the main character’s shoes I woulnd’t be half as brave as she was. This was one of my all time favorite reads.

The book is about how the moon comes closer to the Earth than it it supposed to. This throws off the seasons and starts many natural disasters. For example, volcanoes start erupting all over and it turns the sky grey with ash, which makes it hard to breathe outside. Many states are drown, there are fires, and lots of places are snowed in. The book is based upon Miranda’s journal, in her perspective of the whole situation. This book is so sad and scary in some ways that it really makes you realize how lucky we really are.

I would recommend a book called “Perfect Chemistry” by Simone Elkeless. Brittany Ellis, a north-sider and a popular cheerleader, is assigned chemistry partners with a south-side rebellious gang-member named Alex Fuentes. She is intimidated due to the rumors that travel around school about him. He is absolutely disgusted to be working with someone so perfect and the exact opposite of him. How are they supposed graduate high school if they can’t even settle their differences? Slowly but surely, these two teenagers become closer, eventually forming a dangerous relationship. If you read this amazing novel, you’ll learn to love Alex’s hilarious humor and how Brittany is uptight.

I recommend the book, “The Last Song.” You might recognize the title from a movie that came out this year. It had Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth. In this book, it includes the cliche love connection between two teenagers named Ronnie Miller and Will Blakelee. Ronnie Miller’s parents are divorced and her mother forces her to spend the summer at her dad’s house which she hasn’t seen or spoken to in three years. She meets a boy named Will Blakelee that is out of her league. These two start to become closer and eventually, have a relationship.

I read the Lightning Thief by Rick Riordan. It was an action packed book and I would recomend it to anyone that likes action books or Greek mythology.

One book that people might want to read is Let’s Get Invisible by R.L Stine. I think that this book would be a good book for people that like scary stories because this story is scary and mysterious and wants to make you keep on reading it. This book is about this boy that finds a mirror in his attic and he turns on the light and he disappears and when he turns the light off it takes him a little time to come back to normal and he only has 3 times to get to be invisible and the next time he does it something happens and you’ll see what happens.

A book that I just read over the long weekend is “The thing about Georgie” It is a book about a boy who is diffrent from everyone else but he thinks that he is just normal but then he thinks of himself as being “diffrent” in a bad way. He finds out something big is happening in his life. Then from there things start going down hill like losing his best freind and his crush being freinds with peole who are so mean to him becacuse of what he is. But then when someone he would have never guessed to be a freind comes along and makes everything great and his best freind forgivs him and somthing GREAT comes into his life! This book has taught me that everyone has somthing diffrent about them and that they can all be great and that I showed be nice to everyone no matter what they are!
