I liked this book a lot. I think it is a very good book for teenage girls. This book is about a girl named Kayla whose birthday wishes have never come true. On her 16th birthday, she wishes that all of her past wishes would come true, and it kind of turns into a huge mess. Every day, one of her past wishes comes true. Unfortunately, when she was 15, she wished that Ben, the guy of her dreams, would kiss her. Now that Ben id dating her best friend, she has to stop that wish from coming true, too!

I think this book is my favorite out of all the books I've ever read. It is the sequel to Crank. It is about a girl names Kristina who has a split personality, and her other personality's name is Bree...sort of like the old scenerio where you have a good angel on one shoulder and a devil on the other. She gets into drugs and ends up pregnant after she is raped by one of her "friends." Kristina is forced to keep the baby and raise him in her parents' house. Butm when an old friend introduces her to crystal meth, she ends up immediately hook and totally addicted.

This is a book that I actually read in 2 hours. It was an amazing book. I didn't put it down once. I laid on my bed for two long hours reading. This book has a total of 262 pages, and every page makes you look forward to the next. Maisie's mom and dad have divorced and now they are both re-married to people that Maisie doesn't quite like. She has three best friends and they aren't girls. They are boys. They all grew up together. Maisie doesn’t understand how one event got so out of hand. She doesn't want to get her friends in trouble. But, wait… are they even her friends still? She doesn't know. Nobody will talk to her because they are afraid of getting sued. This book is a mixture of friendship, love and everyday events of a teen’s life. Once you start reading this book, you won’t want to put it down.

If you are a teen girl and always have trouble finding a book that you know you will never want to put down, this is the book for you. It is mixed with many problems we teens face day to day. Each and every day, I think about how my life would be different if I was in someone else’s shoes, and then I read this book. It made me feel like I was in her shoes. Halley's junior year of high school is one of the hardest. Her best friend’s boyfriend dies and then Scarlet (Halley's best friend) finds out she is pregnant. Halley helps Scarlet deal with everything. She also ends up involved in her first real relationship. This is a must read book. I never wanted to put it down.
Tell No One by Harlen Coben

The Book, Tell No One, is a mind-blowing thriller that never lets up - not even one bit! Once I got to really reading this book, I could not put it down, even to save my life. I wanted to read it non-stop until I got to the ver, very end. It gets even better, too, once you get towards the end because that is when you unravel the plot and scheme behind this book. Once you see what is really going on, it dawns on you that you've been misled through the whole book. This is hands down the best book that I have read this year, and I am going to look for other books by Coben.
I tell readers out there to pick up this book and you'll be sucked into a world of mystery, love, murder, and thrill, and you won't be able to put it down!

When I first started reading The Golden Compass, I thought that it would be a boring book from a boring series, but it wasn't. I just finished reading the while series and, all-in-all, I think it was a good set of books.
There are three books in the series - The Golden Compass, The Subtle Knife, and The Amber Spyglass. I didn;t like The Subtle Knife because it didn;t get good until half-way through the book. I think the second and third books should be movies - maybe there will be more going on.
I would recommend these books to anyone who likes a little twist in their books.
