The Princess Diaries by Meg Cabot
This book is about a regular girl who finds out that she is a princess of a small European country. This book spans some of her Freshman year. It talks about her struggles with friends, boys,and school. I LOVE Meg Cabot's writing style and this is one of my favorite book series.
Pop Princess by Rachel Cohn
This book is about a girl who gets discovered and becomes famous. I am not a big fan of this book. I thought that some of the things that this book goes into details about is not intersting. I do not like Rachel Cohn's writing style and would not read this book again
soem of the best books I have read lately are by an author called Lawana Blackwell. She could fall all three of the romance, chick lit, or even historical fiction categories.
She has two different series, Tales of London and the Greshma Chronicles. The are both set in England during the late 1800's and deal with the adventures on an extended family. I could not put any of these books down and I was so eager to finish one so that I could start a new one.
She has yet another series of these books called Victorian Serenade which I am going to start reading soon.
"Where the Heart Is" by Billie Letts
Great book! This is about a 17 year old girl who is pregnant and abandoned by her boyfriend at a Wal-Mart and ends up having to live there until she can find somewhere else to stay. I liked this book because it has a lot of themes appearing throughout it: The concept of family (your family and friends can be one in the same) and that there's more to life than meets the eye.
Dreamland by Sarah Dessen
Caitlin's perfect sister decides to skip out of town, leaving her family fretting. Nobody knows where her sister has gone. While her parents worry about her sister, Caitlin begins to find her own life, one that involves a boy, Rogerson. Rogerson seems like the perfect boy, a boy that can stop the turmoil in Caitlin's life. Instead he creates more. This story is about physical abuse and so much more.
Miss Smithers by Susan Juby
I loved Alice, I Think so I had to read Miss Smithers. Alice was homeschooled but recently made the transition back to public schooling. (She had not gone to public school since kindergarten. She was removed from kindergarten after she realized she did not fit in.) In Miss Smithers, she is entered into the local teen girl pagent. When she entered, it was all about the $400 spending money she was given, but later she was pulling to win. Things get turned upside down, as they always do with Alice, when the zine she writes ends up in the hands of....everybody! This book is entertaining and hilarious!
