Werewolf Haiku by Ryan Mecum: This was a different, but very interesting, book. I was shocked that it turned out the way it did. Still, very interesting. 3/5 stars -- Kylie

Itch by Michelle D. Kwasney: I absolutely loved this book! It was so easy to follow and I knew exactly what was going on, which never happens. I would highly recommend this book to any one of my friends. 4/5 stars -- Kylie

Night World volume 1 by LJ Smith: It's a great story about the effects and consequences of the people of the night world falling in love with the day. It has interesting plots and twists, and the playfulness of the night society is really fun. 5/5 stars -- Dianna

I'll Be Seeing You by Lurlene McDaniel (located in the anthology True Love): Carley was a teenager who had a tumor removed from her head, which caused her to have a facial deformity. Carley would hide her feelings by making others around her laugh at the jokes she told. She ended up in the hospital because of a broken leg and then an infection and met Kyle. Kyle had been hurt in a chemistry experiment and he could potentially be blind. Carley and Kyle become close, but Carley is too afraid to let Kyle see her face, so she leaves with no intention of Kyle ever seeing her again. One day, Kyle finds her and they talk, but Kyle ends up leaving then. Another day, Kyle is flying a plane with a message directly to Carley. 4/5 stars -- Rocio.
