Book #61

From What I Remember... by Stacy Kramer
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Loved this book!!  I had no idea what to expect from it and I loved it!  I loved that the chapters were different movie quotes and all of the movie quotes throughout the story.  I loved all of the characters, well, except Lily.  I never did warm up to her but I don't think you are supposed to.  I loved that the story is told from all the different POV's.  I was a little worried at first that it might be a little hard to follow but it actually flowed and worked amazingly.  That is of course until it gets to a really angsty part and switches POV and it's the wee hours of the morning and you have to get up for work in a few hours and really shouldn't stay up to read 2 more chapters to see how it all works out.  I was sorry to see it end.  I wanted to stay in Kylie and Max's world a little bit longer. Oh well, I guess we will always have Ensenada!

Book #60

Before I Wake by Rachel Vincent
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Even though I still don't like Kaylee and Tod as a couple (Am I the only one who is Team Nash?), I liked this book much more than I anticipated.  I'm kind of hoping that in the last book we find out this was all just a bad dream.

Book #59

Peaches by Jodi Lynn Anderson
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I got this as a Free Friday book for my nook because it sounded like it might be cute and it really was.  Three completely different girls end up working at a peach orchard for three completely different reasons and find lasting friendships despite their differences.  They also manage to see and bring out the best in each other.  I can't wait to see what the future holds for Murphy, Leeda, Birdie and of course Rex and Enrico!!

Book #58

Team Human by Justine Larbalestier
My rating: 3 of 5 stars

(3.5 Stars) This book took me forever to get into.  I being that I love vampires (whether they sparkle or not) I had a hard time warming up to a protagonist who hated them.  Eventually though, Mel's love of her friends won me over.  Kit may have helped a little too.

Book #57

A Little Less Girl by Tess Oliver
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

I really liked this book!  I liked all the characters, the story, everything!  It had a little romance, a little mystery (even if I did figure it out early on), a little suspense just a little bit of everything for everyone!  And Jake West could be my romantic hero any day!

Book # 56

Heart On A Chain by Cindy C. Bennett
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

This book was heartbreaking to read about what Kate had to endure for pretty much half her life at home and at school.  What was most frustrating was that no adult ever stepped in until it was almost too late.  As bad as some of it got, there was still plenty of good to make me smile through my tears.  I absolutely adore Henry and his family.

Book #55

Cross My Heart by Katie Klein


My rating: 3 of 5 stars


(3.5 Stars) This would have gotten 4 stars if Jaden's mother wasn't so annoying and if there was a little more sneaking around with Parker and more rebellion on Jaden's part. I wanted to see her do a total 180 to a complete Bad Girl and start sticking up for herself. Like instead of helping her brother fix up his house, demanding that someone (or all of them) help fix up their house and her stupid busted faucet! But I had a feeling it was going to get fixed somehow, someway. ;)
