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!

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.

Pashmina is a very cute, and short, graphic novel. In the book the main character vists India because of a magic shawl that showed her India. A nice book.

I really enjoyed this book (much more than expected)! The book follows three people who are all running for student council president. There is Stacey, who has always been involved in student council and is generally a crowd pleaser. There is Julia, who just moved here, yet people seem to love her! Lastly there is Tony, the guy who only cares about chocolate milk. The race tears people and friendships apart.... I'd definitely recommend this book to anyone!

This book introduces readers such as myself into the world of Greek mythology. I found it really fascinating to hear about different creatures that consisted in these myths. I found myself in a ride of suspense multiple times as I saw the struggles the protagonists have to overcome to succeed. After I finished the book I couldn't wait to read the sequel. I would recommend this book for grades 6-8.

I am in love with this book. Not only is it interesting and captivating, but it also is very educational in terms of World War 2. The book starts off with Hanneke Baker, whos boyfriend died serving front lines as a soldier. Since then, she has been working in the Black Market, selling illegal goods such as sugar, bread, coffee, and tea by using dead people's rations & and motivated by the drive for money that keeps her family stable. Hanneke is very good at finding things. But when Mrs. Janssen, one of Hanneke's clients, asks her to find a Jewish girl she has been hiding in her house who recently went missing, Hanneke is put on an emotional rollercoaster. Throughout the book, she discovers her own self-worth, and for the first time, allows herself to grieve since the loss of Bas. And all along, Hanneke learns some very shocking truths about the girl Mrs. Janssen had been hiding. This book is excellent and I would highly recommend it!
