I really enjoyed reading this book, and look forward to reading other books by Alice Oseman. Her books are really related to the modern day issues and struggles of individuals trying to come out or find their own identity. I would recommend this book for ages 12 and above.

This book is about a girl with alopecia, which made all her hair fall out, and a guy who had his legs amputated. Although their problems may be different, they are able to bond over this and start a friendship. This is a really sweet book about loving yourself and friendship.

Hour Of The Bees

I give Hour Of The Bees 3 stars. It was an okay book. The reason I didn't really like it was because it felt like nothing was moving. It felt like we were stuck at the same point in the plot. Nothing exciting was happening. The characters would get up, do their chores, talk about moving, and talk about the Grandpa and how crazy he is. It was like the same thing happened every day! The ending was pretty good though. It was very eventful, dramatic, and heartwarming (that is why it earned 3 stars). Not sure if I would recommend this.

Courage For Beginners

This is a great book, as the title suggests, about courage! The main character Mysti has to gain the courage to make new friends, help her family (her father who is in the hospital, her mother who never, ever leaves the house, and her bratty sister) and become a better version of herself. This is a wonderful book to read about courage that I would definately recommend!

book cover


The Curious Incident Of The Dog In The Nightime is a great book. It's about a dog, Wellington who was killed. But it's about more than just that. While investigating the death of this dog he realizes that his father lied to him and that his Mom is still alive. His Mom cheated on his Dad, and then moved in with their neighbors ex-husband. His Dad was so embarressed, that he kept it a secret and said that the Mom had died. But the main character finds out, and then chaos begins. Overall, an amazing book!

A Mango Shaped Space

This is a great book about a girl who has synesthesia (meaning numbers and letters have colors as well as sounds). It is beautiful how the author describes what Mia, the main character is seeing. It's lovely to watch Mia become so much more comfortable and confident about her synesthesia.

A Tragic Kind Of Wonderful

book cover


A Tragic Kind Of Wonderful was a wonderful book. It's about a girl who has a bipolar disorder. It's messy and confusing and frustrating, so she has a hard time dealing with it. She also has to deal with a lot of drama from friends and a little bit of romance. Overall, a great book that I highly recommend.

I really enjoyed this book! It was one of my favorites by David Sedaris. I really enjoyed the stories about Hugh and his father. Many of them were very funny, but also very sad.
