You Should See Me In A Crown
by Leah Johnson
View in Library Catalog
This is a good book about a girl trying to win the title of prom queen so that she can win a scholarship to her dream school. Along the way, (even though she totally hates all this prom stuff) she actually falls in love! This is a good read that I really enjoyed.
How We Roll
by Natasha Friend
View in Library Catalog
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.
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.
Guts
by Raina Telgemeier
View in Library Catalog
Guts is a true story about Raina (who is the author) and her fear of vomit. Raina is always afraid she will get sick. She goes to a therapist, and throughout the book she becomes more comforatable and calm. Overall, I liked this book.
Not If I See You First
by Eric Lindstrom
View in Library Catalog
This book is about a blind girl and her friends. It does turn into a bit of a romance though, which too be honest, I wasn't expecting in the beginning. Overall I still liked it, and I would recommended it!
There's Something About Sweetie
by Sandhya Menon
View in Library Catalog
Absolutely love this author, and all of her books! So far, this is the third book of hers that I read (since it is a series) and I can't wait to read the rest! I simply cannot put the book down once I start and get into the plot (literally, I stayed up a night just because I simply couldn't resist the cliffhanger). Would 100% recommend to everyone out there :)
One Book In The Grave
by Kate Carlisle
View in Library Catalog
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
Smile
by Raina Telgemeier
View in Library Catalog
This is a great book about a girl and her dental problems (also some stuff about school and boys). It's a quick and easy read, so anyone can read it. It's also very relateable since it's about braces and things of that nature. I give this book 5 stars, as well as her other books that she's written. Raina is a very good author.
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.
Hope Was Here
by Joan Bauer
View in Library Catalog
A surprisingly good book! In the first few pages I wasn't that sure if I should keep reading, but I'm glad I did. Hope Was Here is about a girl (Hope) who's a waitress and moves with her aunt/mother (her aunt takes care of her and acts like a mother) to a diner in Wisconsin. There she helps the owner of the diner (G.T.) to run for mayor, even though her has cancer....An amazing book that I highly recommend.
