Harley Like a Person by Cat Bauer |
Rating: 5 Stars |
The main character, Harley, goes through basic teenage experiences all the while in search for her father. I fell in love with the character immediately, even though we are nothing alike, which is one of my favorite things to experience when I read a book.

The Lovely Bones by Alice Sebold |
Rating: 5 Stars |
I love this book and am excited for the movie to come out December 11. This book is about a family coping with the death of a sister/daughter/grandaughter. The dad has a feeling he knows who the killer is but the police don't believe him. Susie watches from her place in heaven the lives of her family, friends, and her killer. This book has a roller coaster of emotions. If you thought about reading this book I suggest you hurry up and get a yourself a copy before the movie comes to theaters.

Unwind by Neal Shusterman |
Rating: 3 Stars |
I like this book, but not as much as other dystopian novels. I just couldn't quite suspend my disbelief. I can't see our society becoming both medically advanced and legislatively unethical enough to "unwind" and reuse all the parts (or 98%) of teens within a few generations of now. Well-paced and likable characters, though.

I found out about this book from a girl on youtube (for a book club). I thought I'd try it, from the very first page i was hooked. I need to know what will happen to Jace and Clary? This book is so deliciously good I couldn't put it down. I'm as obsessed with it as i was with The Twilight Series, and The Princess Diaries! I can't wait to go pick up the next book (CITY OF ASHES) in the series! Plus it doesn't hurt that Stephenie Meyer loves the series as well!

The Fortunes of Indigo Skye by Deb Caletti |
Rating: 2 Stars |
Due to many unfortunate circumstances, it took me nearly four months to complete this book. I realize that this alone may have been an impediment to my enjoyment of the novel, but it contained other detrimental factors that cannot be ignored. Throughout the text, Deb Caletti seems to be writing an extended lecture to her readers on her personal views of life. In fact, her beliefs are so copious that her work reads as a disguised philosophy book. She even includes quotes from Emerson! In the fashion that Mama Mia! was pieced together through songs by Abba, this book seems to be written around its author’s values with all other content merely being inserted in the space between topics. I can practically see Caletti contemplating over the best ways to indoctrinate her readers. While every author has the right to do this, I am adamantly averse to the various forms of propaganda. The remainder of the novel—that which is not thick with Caletti’s theology—did not exactly inspire me to continue reading either. Many passages were dull and seemingly pointless. The narrator, Indigo, became exceedingly exasperating after the first few chapters.
Caletti’s choice of language also mystifies me. In one sentence she lets loose of a few curse words and other teenage idioms, but in the next paragraph she unleashes a flurry of blissful descriptions overflowing with ingenious metaphors. Caletti is indeed a gifted writer, but perhaps other fields of the industry are better suited to her talents.

The Last Olympian by Rick Riordan |
Rating: 5 Stars |
This last novel which is the last installment of the Percy Jackson series was excellent and enthusiastic. This fantasy novel included everything readers want to read about: fantasy, adventure, action, romance, and betrayal. There were riddles in this book that helps readers predict how the ending will be. But the ending will be surprising and unexpected. Based on my opinion, I loved the ending and it was an excellent and appropriate ending too.

The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins |
Rating: 5 Stars |
I was skeptical when I first picked up this book; what interest would I find in a story about to kids killing other kids? I'm so glad that I decided to pick it up anyways, because I hadn't read such a good book in a very long time. The characters are excellent, and the story keeps you up into the late hours of the night trying to find out more. A truly excellent novel with a bone-chilling message. I loved it.

CATCHING FIRE is the second installment in The Hunger Games Trilogy. The book contains even more plot twists and complications than THE HUNGER GAMES and left me wanting more!!! Peeta and Katniss are once again forced to fight for their survival in the area and the hope of their survival is even slimmer than before. I can't wait for the third and final book to hit the shelves.
