Review:Love this spin off. Love references to other series and characters. Rachel is a literary genius! She keeps me coming back for more more more! She writes such amazing characters you never want the stories to end. I recommend any and all books by this witty and comical writer! Take my money please! Read more

Review:Jeffrey Alper is not your average eighth-grader. In fact, you might know him as That Boy Who Had Cancer. That was when he was four, but he's in remission now, so his story should be over, right?

Wrong. Oooohhh, so wrong.

Jordan Sonnenblick does a bang-up job of exploring what comes after the natural ending to most stories like Jeffrey's--in this case, after remission. What comes next is a realistic story about a kid who has to readjust to a typical life. This includes deepening his... Read more

Review:Croak started off pretty slow, but I found myself really enjoying it by then end. At first everything seemed really predictable. I just thought the story would end up being about Lex's adventures as a Grim over the summer but it ended up being a lot more exciting than that.

This book is definitely an acquired taste. If you're not a fan of sardonic characters then you should probably resolve to never read Croak since it's chock-full of them. I find these types of characters to usually only... Read more

Review:Becca has done it yet again with this amazing book. I love reading anything that she has to write. From my first time picking up hush, hush, to this I can't put it down until it's finished. I spend days not sleeping. Read more

Review:Wow!!! Incredible!!! I can’t explain what this book did to me. It hurt to read it. My anxiety went through the roof. It was a simply incredible. I can’t say it was her best book, because all Tijan’s book are incredible, but it’s definitely up there. The last line of the book through me for a loop. Can’t say I saw that coming.

This book did remind me of Sam and Mason, so if you love their story, you’ll love this one too. The male characters aren’t as hard core and the girls aren’t as ruthl... Read more

Review:McKinley has been one of my favorite authors since I was a teenager. I was thrilled to see a new book from her, and in the same mystical vein as some of her earlier works. What a lovely story. I checked this out from the library at first, but after reading it realized I wanted to own it. Read more

Review:I kept waiting to be 'captured' by the character in this book, but I had very little empathy for him, or connection to him. The story seemed to drag on and bog down in mundane events. I really TRIED, but haven't made it past 2/3 of the way through. I plan to finish, hoping there will be something redeeming in it's ending. The general grammar is bad and sentences are jumbled and don't flow. I hope this was an intentional effort on the part of the author - if not, I can't imagine how an editor wou... Read more

Review:This book will knock your socks off! The voice is simply stunning. The author captures Hawthorn’s need to find Lizzie so beautifully and believably that you will feel the same need as the book goes on. The characters were so well-drawn that they became more like friends and neighbors than fictional people. The ending left me absolutely gutted (but in the best of ways) because I was feeling everything that Hawthorn was. Brilliant. Read more

Review:This is a work of YA contemporary fiction. Daniel is a seventeen-year-old Korean-American poet who, against his traditional parents’ wishes, does not want to attend Yale or become a doctor. Natasha is a science-minded undocumented immigrant from Jamaica who’s been living in New York City since age 9, but is about to be deported that night. A series of coincidences and serendipitous events continuously bring Natasha and Daniel together throughout the day. Daniel knew from first sight that she wa... Read more
