Ages 12-16: Dead is the New Black

Daisy Giordano is normal. I know what your thinking, isn't that a good thing?, well it isn't if your mother and three sisters are psychic in that situation it sucks. Then you have to factor in her former best friend, Samantha, is out to get her, then say her best friend/crush is in love with her former best friend. I say all of that to say how much her life sucks. Good thing in this book things get better not worse. Even though you can guess how it gets better. I still think you should read it.

Reviewer, Aja Rating, ;-D Reason, It was very interesting like something Meg Cabot would write.

Ages 12-16: Twilight by Stephanie Meyer


Twilight is a really great book it's basically a love story between a vampire and a human.While Edward struggles not to eat her, he begins to love her and since he only feeds on animals she must be really tasty. This story is truly incredible.

Most people saw the movie then read the book but since it's PG-13 I couldn't see any of it. I also am one of those people who loves to read so even though I didn't see the movie I usually love the book more when it is made into a movie.When I hear about books made into movies I can usually say "I read that". Sadly I can't always say " It was fantabulous"though for this book I can!
