Divergent by Veronica Roth: I loved this book; it is full of action, romance, moral crisis, and character growth. One of the things I loved was how mean Beatrice/Tris was at times. I think it made her character feel more real. It was refreshing to have a narrator who wasn't sympathizing with everyone -- seeing everything in black and white/good and bad. The thing I found myself questioning while reading was what the state of the rest of the world was in (since this particular installment was centered in Chicago). I decided to assume that the reader wouldn't know this information because Tris didn't wand hoped that it would be delved into in future books. 4/5 Stars -- Linnea


Ten Things I Hate About Me by Randa Abdel-Fattah: This girl feels ugly but one day she realizes that being beautiful isn't on the outside, but also comes from within, and she learns to love herself. 4/5 Stars -- Kylie

Laguna Cove by Alyson Noel: This book is about a new girl in town who impresses everyone at first sight. She shows everyone who she really is, unlike how she was at her old city she used to live in. 2/5 Stars -- Kylie

Vampire Academy by Richelle Mead: I love this series, since it's very good. I love he way you can relate to the main character Rose and her forbidden love for a teacher. It is a great take on another society within our world. 5/5 Stars -- Dianna
