Your Own Worst Enemy
by Gordon Jack
View in Library Catalog
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!
Dear Evan Hansen
by Val Emmich
View in Library Catalog
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.
Ten Things I Hate About Me
by Randa Abdel-Fattah
View in Library Catalog
An amazing book! The main character has two identities (sort of). At home she is Jamilah and at school and other public places she is Jamie. This is because her family is from Lebanon, and she doesn't like how other people are treated for it. It's not that she doesn't like her culture, she said herself that she loves the food, music, etc. So, she pretends to be Jamie to avoid people treating her badly. In the end, she finds the courage to be Jamilah, and to be proud of her culture. A 5-star, must read!
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 :)

Hunger Games Book 1
by Suzanne Collins
View in Library Catalog
This book was very fast-paced, exhilarating, and a lot of fun to read. The events in the book always had my attention, and there was not one dull moment. I really look forward to reading the following book of the series, and I want to know what happens next.
Unbecoming
by Jenny Downham
View in Library Catalog
This book is so good I wish I could give it 10 stars! It's about three generations of women, who each have their own problems that they have to figure out. In the end solving these problems brings them closer together as a family (they never were close at all), which is so sweet and wonderful. One of tthe reasons I really like this book is because it shows that it's okay to be different and also that nobody is perfect. I think everyone should read this book!

Inside out and back again is a incredible book of how Ha adapted to moving to America and going to school and learning English for the first time.
Echo Mountain
by Lauren Wolk
View in Library Catalog
Echo Mountain was a nice historical fiction book. Ellie (main character) and her family had to move to the mountains after the deppresion hit and they lost all their money. Then an accident causes Ellie's dad to go into a coma. In the book Ellie deals with/fixes all the problems in her life. The one complaint I have about this book is that things move really fast. Other than that it was great.
A Very Merry Bromance
by Lyssa Kay Adams
View in Library Catalog
Another good read in the Bromance Book Club series. A country music golden boy is the next gentleman to need some romantic advise from the "club" members. And his target - a woman who brushed him off a year earlier! She's trying to convince him to become the new face of her estranged family's business. You never quite know what's going to happen next!
