From The Notebooks Of A Middle School Princess
by Meg Cabot
View in Library Catalog
This book is about a girl who thinks she is just an average middle schooler, but is actually royalty. It is a pretty good book, the only reason I took away 1 star is because I'm not really into princess stuff that much, but I still liked it.
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.
Perfect
by Natasha Friend
View in Library Catalog
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!

The great treehouse war is a book about a girl named Winnie who’s Dad is a scientist and Mom is a mathematician.
Percy Jackson And The Lightning Thief
by Rick Riordan
View in Library Catalog
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.
Lucky Strikes
by Louis Bayard
View in Library Catalog
This book is about 3 children after their mom dies and their dad is nowhere to be seen so they have to figure out a way to take care of the family buisness all by themselves. The reason why I took those two stars away is because the book didn't feel exciting. There wasn't anything exciting happening that kept me turning the pages. It was a good book, just not to my liking.
Ms. Coco Is Loco
by Dan Gutman
View in Library Catalog
I liked the part when A.J was a poet and he did not even know it.
Flush
by Carl Hiaasen
View in Library Catalog
Overall, Flush was a pretty good book. It's about how the main character's dad wanted to get justice on someone who was dumping waste into the ocean. The reason I took away a star is because the middle felt boring and long. I didn't really want to keep reading, but I did anyway. It had a sweet ending (SPOILER OMITTED) which redeemed it.
Twins
by Varian Johnson
View in Library Catalog
Twins is a graphic novel about twins who both run for student council president. It leads to a lot of fighting and crying. A little too much. It felt like the same fights were just repeating, which is why I took away a star. Regardless, it was a good graphic novel.
A Tragic Kind Of Wonderful
by Erica Lindstrom
View in Library Catalog
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.
