I have never been more disappointed in a book in my entire life. It's a collection of short stories, but those short stories have no point. They are perverted and this world's perverted enough, and it was just something I could have done without reading.

| Rogue Angel series by Alex Archer |
| Rating: 5 Stars |
This series is about an archaeologist named Annja Creed, who travels the world searching for historical treasures. It is the mystery, suspense, action, and historical fiction genres combined. If you like historical fiction and action adventure, you will love these books! They are kind of like the Lara Croft: Tomb Raider movies. I loved them! They will keep you on the edge of your seat, not wanting to put the books down!

| Maximum Ride: The Angel Experiment by James Patterson |
| Rating: 5 Stars |
What a book! It'll stay glued to your hands the moment you pick it up and start reading it. It is a great story of 6 kids who were taken from their parents and experimented on as children --- with the result of them becoming part bird. They eventually escape, only to have their youngest "sister" kidnapped by evil erasers who work for the scientists. Definitely not your average book! It deals with betrayal, love, out-of-body experiences, escape, fear and so much more! This is a book everyone should know about! Read it ASAP!

| Burning Up by Caroline B. Cooney |
| Rating: 4 Stars |
This is an amazing mystery that deals with love, hate, segregation, and death --- one of the best books to read that is interesting and also deals with history and true facts. If you love mysteries or action-packed thrillers, this is the book that combines both of these page-turning qualities. Definitely a must read!

| Looking for JJ by Anne Cassidy |
| Rating: 5 Stars |
I think it's a rather good book. The plot seems realistic. At the beginning, you weren't given all the information, but then suddenly you go from Alice Tully to Jenifer Jones and learn about the slightly accidental murder that got Jenifer/Alice/Katie into this whole mess. A great book that I would recommend to anyone (though most likely a girl).

I couldn't understand what the hype about the Twilight series was all about.

I will tell you what I was told when I first started becoming interested, and it was two words --- "vampire love". It doesn't sound that great, but it's awesome!

GOSSIP GIRL is a novel about several teenagers whose lives intertwine in interesting ways. Although they are of different ages, races and backgrounds, all of them have something in common. They all live in New York, and they all have no limitations. This is the best series I've read in a while, and it's just like chocolate --- makes you want more and more. This is an awesome series and I recommend it to all girls, 13 and up.

One of the most amazing books I've read in a while.
In one day, the lives of ten people, all of different ages, change and interact in surprising ways. From Robby, the guy who just got released from prison for murdering his girlfriend, to Nicole, the girl who loses her virginity to her best friend's boyfriend, to Joy, the waitress who desperately wants to be a princess.
This is an amazing story about how difficult teenage life can be, and not just teenage life, but life as a whole.
I strongly recommend this book to everyone (14 and older).

When Ruby's mother suddenly dies, she goes to live with her famous actor father, Whip Logan, in Hollywood. Leaving her best friend, her aunt, and most importantly, her boyfriend, Ruby slowly discovers about things she could have never dreamed of.
At first, she just sits at home, talking to Max --- whom she later finds out is her father's boyfriend --- and blasting Eminem CDs. She learns to deal with the famous life, from wearing designer labels to meeting Brad Pitt at the corner store.
But when her best friend drops a bomb on her, Ruby thinks she can't handle it, and writing e-mails to her dead mother won't help her anymore.
I recommend this book to people 14 and up.
