To Kill a Mockingbird by Harper Lee

My rating: 5 stars Scout and Jem Finch spent a good part of their childhood obsessing over their next door neighbor, Arthur “Boo” Radley, who was rumored to be slightly crazy. But now that they’re older, and more involved with and exposed to more adult topics, most of their time is centered on the trial. […]

Delirium by Lauren Oliver

My Rating: 5 stars The United States is now a place where love or ‘amor deliria nervosa’ is illegal. It’s considered a disease. It’s been sixty four years since love was announced as a disease. Forty three since there has been a cure. Every person: woman, man and child, live in fear of contracting this […]

The Brave by Robert Lipsyte

My Rating: 1 star This book was honestly a waste of my time. I had to read it for an English project in school this past month, and although I did well with my assignments, I didn’t enjoy the book at all. Half the time I felt like I didn’t really know what was going […]

The Lying Game by Sara Shepard

My Rating: 5 stars Emma never knew she had a long-lost twin sister, until one day a boy in her foster family shows her a strange video online of a girl who looks exactly like her. Her name is Sutton and she has a perfect life – the life Emma always dreamed about….except for one […]

It’s Kind of a Funny Story

My Rating: 5 stars So, I went into this movie with high hopes. This book was absolutely fabulous and inspiring, could the movie ever live up to it? Well, surprisingly, it basically did. I mean, it will never be as amazing as book, but isn’t that always the case? I really liked how the movie […]

Wanted by Sara Shepard

My Rating: 5 stars **If you haven’t read previous books, don’t read!** This is where all the answers are supposed to show up, where everything is supposed to make sense. In the last Pretty Little Liars book, Hanna, Spencer, Emily and Aria are faced with a few more surprises before they finally figure out all […]

Heartless by Sara Shepard

My Rating: 5 stars **If you haven’t read previous books, don’t read!** In the second to last book of the Pretty Little Liars series, there still is a lot to be revealed. When Spencer, Aria, Hanna and Emily first claimed they saw Ian Thomas’s lifeless body in the woods, no one believed them. Now that […]

I Am Number Four by Pittacus Lore

My Rating: 3 stars I honestly started this book thinking it was going to be some Sci-Fi action novel, but it was kind of the opposite. This book took to about page 300 to get somewhat interesting and action-filled. Most of the book was minor action scenes and the life of the main character, Number […]
