Angus, Thongs and Full Frontal Snogging

Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging (Confessions of Georgia Nicolson, #1)Angus, Thongs and Full-Frontal Snogging by Louise Rennison

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Laugh out loud chick-lit. Just don't read it during study hall because you won't be able to read quietly. This is the first in the Confession of Georgia Nicolson series.

The Knife of Never Letting Go

The Knife of Never Letting Go (Chaos Walking, #1)The Knife of Never Letting Go by Patrick Ness

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


WOW!! I loved this book. Todd lives on New World, a place where everyone can hear everyone's thoughts. (including animals) There is no privacy and no quiet. New World is full of NOISE.

With all of this noise, you would think that there couldn't be any secrets - but there are PLENTY - including the real reason there are no women left on New World. This is the first in the Chaos Walking trilogy. I can't wait to read the next two books. Make sure to checkout the Playaway because this is a FABULOUS audiobook!!!

It's hard to fit in when you are known as "goat-girl" because once you rode the bus with goat poop on your shoes. But just like everyone else, Janie longs to be "normal".

Shine

ShineShine by Lauren Myracle

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Cat's best friend, Patrick, is a victim of a vicious hate crime just because he is gay. He is beaten, tied to a gas pump and left to die. He is in a coma, but the doctors aren't sure if Patrick is going to make it. To add insult to injury, this crime is not being investigated by the local sheriff (is he indifferent or prejudiced?) and Cat is afraid that the people responsible will not be found and punished.



This is a fantastic novel! In addition to the main story, there are other stories expertly woven in. You might just finish this on one sitting!
