I really was not sure what genre to put this in but I did put it in chic lit because it does have the romance in there. Meridian is a girl who has no idea why there is so much death going on in her life. Once she turns 16 everything changes and she has to learn the truth about herself. I suggest this book to people who like to read about the different alternatives about death. Although they may not be true, it’s really interesting to read what Amber Kizer has opinionated on death. Also a very good looking young man is by her side through her journey. I didn’t really enjoy the ending but it did make me wonder what is going to happen next. PLEASE READ IT!

Fairy Tale by Cyn Balog focuses on seemingly ordinary high school student Morgan, whose normal life gets turned upside down when she finds out that her boyfriend is a fairy.

Fairy Tale is Balog’s first novel, and is sweet and heartwarming. This book is good for readers who can’t focus on books for too long: it is relatively short and entertaining for a teen crowd. Morgan is a smart and likable character, making her a very relatable character. While still remaining very sweet and teenage-oriented, Fairy Tale has humor and a wit not seen in most teen novels.

Overall, an entertaining and funny read for the younger crowd. Recommended.

Stephen Chbosky’s The Perks Of Being A Wallflower is told through the eyes of the character “Charlie,” who is experiencing his first year of high school, troubles with his family, and his shyness.

The Perks of Being A Wallflower is a beautifully written and intensely realistic book: it focuses on a plethora of controversial issues that many teenagers face. Written in a first-person letter format, Chbosky gives Charlie a unique and naive voice, one that is perfect for a high school freshman.

The Perks of Being a Wallflower will not disappoint any type of reader: it’s impeccable style and heartbreaking reality will relate to anyone who has ever felt alone or hurt. Highly Recommended.

Choke by Chuck Palahniuk follows the life of Victor Mancini, a medical school drop out who is left supporting his ailing mother. Victor has no money, so devises a plan to collect money from total strangers by pretending to choke in restaurants.

This book takes on many subplots and characters, and eventually strays away from the initial plotline: Victor choking on food for money. Besides the wide range of settings and situations, Choke does not disappoint when you are looking for nihilistic and dark humor. Palahniuk stays where he is strong: satire and brevity. This book can be very humorous at times, especially when it comes to the supporting character, Denny.

Not for the light of heart, Choke can be very graphic and may be offensive to some: it has lots of religious satire and could be considered blasphemous to the religious.

Overall, it was a funny and interesting read. Palahniuk fans won’t be disappointed with the dark satire, but newcomers to nihilistic fiction may not take to it.

Without looking, I seemed to choose a book whose cover got me in trouble with my mother, but you can’t judge a book by the title. This book was one of the stop and think books. I won’t tell you what happened at the end, but I will tell you that if you think modeling is just for stuck up girls, after this book, you’ll think twice.

Ok, so I’m not going to spoil it; I’m just going to tell you that when you finish this book, you will realize that it was the best decision you ever made by picking it up. This is because it is a beautiful love story that is set in modern times about a 17 year old Hispanic gang banger and a popular white 17 year old high school cheerleader who seems to have the perfect life. When these two bump heads, its exactly as the title states, Perfect Chemistry. Their story keeps you interested till the end because of the walls they put up but how easily they are broken by the right people and words.This book will not only make you want to jump in and be apart of it but will also probably keep you up late anxious for what happens next. READ IT, I promise you won’t be disappointed.

Sarah Dessen has the magical touch; the one that makes you want to easily leave your realistic life and become one of her characters. In this story, we have a simple girl who tries to be the perfect daughter to her mother and get along with her father. Her life is pretty simple and a bit boring until she moves to a little town by the beach to stay with her Dad the summer before college and discovers a boy named Eli with his own issues. As the two stray away from most, they find each other and realize they’re exactly what they both need. You definitely won’t be able to put this one down until you’re completely done.

“Clay Jenkins receives a box in the mail one day containing thirteen cassette tapes. These thirteen tapes were recorded by his classmate Hannah who had committed suicide recently. The tapes eventually lead Clay through the events that led Hannah to her death and show Clay a new side to the people around him.

I would recommend Thirteen Reasons Why to people because it is a story that teaches people to be nicer to others and take into account other peoples feelings.”
