Thirteen Reasons Why

Thirteen Reasons WhyThirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher

My rating: 3 of 5 stars


Clay has a crush on Hanna but for reasons he doesn't understand she commits suicide. A couple of weeks later he receives a package containing cassette tapes that Hanna recorded before she killed herself and she gives 13 reasons why she did it. Clay is worried that he did something but can't think what it was - but he had to have done something or he wouldn't have been mentioned on the tapes. Heartbreaking and eye-opening.

The Alchemyst

The Alchemyst (The Secrets of the Immortal Nicholas Flamel, #1)The Alchemyst by Michael Scott

My rating: 4 of 5 stars


Josh works for Nick Flemming in a old bookstore and his twin Sophie works across the street from him at a tea shop. The twins were going about their day when a limo shows up and their world as they know it is turned upside down. It turns out that Nick Flemming is THE Nicholas Flamel - the alchemyst that supposedly died in the 1400s. This is a fun fantasy and I can't wait to read book two - "The Magician"
