Perfect is another excellent book by Natasha Friend. It's about a girl who has to go to "Group" because she has an eating disorder. In the group she learns that the most popular girl in school has the same disorder. They quickly become friends. The popular girl is totally fine with her eating disorder, but by the end the main character is able to stop it/overcome it. Overall, a great story!

This is an great book. It's about a guy (Conner) who kills himself and how this other guy (Evan) pretends they were best friends. The letter that everyone thought was Conner's suicide letter, was a letter that Evan wrote to himself. His therapist makes him. Evan gets himself into A LOT of trouble by pretending he was friends with Conner. But eventually, he comes clean and things get beter. This is an excellent book about mental health that everyone must read.

This was a great book that I really enjoyed reading. It's about how the main character has to stay with her awful dad, his new wife, and new baby because her mom had bipolar deppresion. Anna (the main character) is able to make some friends throughout the book and finally feel better about her situation! It's a really nice read that kept me turning the pages over and over until there weren't any more left!

A Series Of Unfortunate Events 4
by Lemony SNicket
View in Library Catalog
This is the 4th book in the series A Series of Unfortunate Events. It is about 3 siblings who lost their parents in a fire. They don't have any close relatives, so they are sent to live with a relative who owns a lumber mill in the miserable town of Paltryville. As soon as they get there, their relative puts them right to work. They have a terrible time there, and on top of that, strange things start happening them, and they suspect that one of their relatives is after them trying to steal their fortune(their parents left them a lot of money). They have to work together, using each other's strengths if they want to live a normal life. I rate it 4 stars.
Drama

ANOTHER great graphic novel by Raina! Drama is about a group of theater kids and their production, Moon Over Mississippi. A lovely book about being true to yourself and believing in yourself.
A Mango Shaped Space
by Wendy Mass
View in Library Catalog
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.
Stargirl
by Jerry Spinelli
View in Library Catalog
This is a book about a mysterious girl who calls herself Stargirl. She is very different from everyone around her, and stands out a lot, so she tried to be more normal. Her attempt failed so she went back to good old Stargirl. The reason I took away one star is because the plot was so-so, and also because it had an unhappy ending. Still, a very good book.
Loveless
by Alice Osman

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 part of a series by Kate Carlisle, about a woman named Brooklyn who restores old books. In the course of her work, somebody is inevitably murdered, and Brooklyn "helps" the police to find the correct killer. (She was once wrongly accused of a murder, so she wants to see justice done.) And in the process of finding who the murderer is, we also learn about restoring books
