43. Ten things we did (and probably shouldn’t have) By: Sarah Mlynowski

Book from Jenny

I don’t really know how I feel about this book. It should be said that I wouldn’t want any of the middle schoolers or any of my friends to read this one. April is 16, yes 16 and she contrived this plan to live with her friend while her father moves to another state. So, the two high school girls rent a hot tub, learn how to go to grocery store, and have wild parties. Her boyfriend lies to her twice, and inflicts an std on her. The plan also comes with fake emails to the father and the friends mother so no one knows that the girls are partying by themselves. Even the ending left me wondering if I should have read the book.

39 and 40. A Hearts obsession and A Hearts Danger

Bought at Library

Fifty cents each from the Gilmer County library. It’s number 2 and 3 of a 6 part series. Each book is only about 100 pages but they are so good!! It’s old war times. The main character, Sarah stays with her father until he dies. Now she is on the war front with her best friend and husband are. Rand, who left with her heart is now engaged to Jessica, the post commander. The second book talks about Jessica in cahoots with a man who hates Rand and want to marry Sarah. It’s such a quick read for both books and you just can’t wait to see what happened. Even though it’s small, the weight of what’s going makes you feel like you are right there with the characters.
