Teen Books

[pinnie]

i really love all gossip girl books now im reading the second one.
i have to admit that t it is so addictive.
The It Girl might be another book im going to buy although im not really into Jenny..

I will say, though, I did enjoy the novel Prep.

I didn't like it. I was really bored of it after the first few pages... But I was all "Okay, after Chapter 1-- It'll get better...." "Chapter 1 sucked, maybe chapter 2 or 3 will get better. It didn't."

I've finished The Tenth Circle by Jodi Picoult and it was a really good book.

I don't really like teen books.. even though I am a teen. I think they're all kind of a waste of time... hah but from the few I read I think I like Gossip Girl best.

^^ Me too, to be honest. Most of them are a little too trashy, but so addictive.
But then--it's a fun way to waste time.

oh, i loved this book! don't know if it's really classifed as "teen", but the main character was, so...great for any age, then
now i am reading my sister's keeper, which again i don't think the main audience was meant to be teens, but the main character is. being able to relate to the character (age-wise, i mean) plays a big part in who the audience will be, i think.

^^ I really wanna read My Sister's Keeper!

I've just finished the 4th Sisterhood book. It was really good. So sad that it ended.

has anyone read, Art Geeks and Prom Queens by Alison Noel?
it's a great book, sarcastic and funny and very real.

^^ I've been trying to find it since the title is so intruiguing.

Zoey Dean is releasing a new book called "How To Teach Filthy Rich Girls", which doesn't really sound as appealing as the A-List.

I've read the 4th book of Sisterhood and it was really good. It's so sad to see such a great series finish though.
I've recently read Peaches by Jodi Lynn Anderson and Bittersweet Sixteen by Carrie Karasyov & Jill Kargman(who wrote Wolves in Chic Clothing together.) I really enjoyed the both of them, especially Peaches--the characters are real and appealing. I felt as if I could relate to them.

All the books I read in middle school involved mental illness and emotional distress.

the plot description kind of sounds like she took the idea of the au pairs. ..not that ive read it okay, those are actually my big guilty pleasure! i stopped reading gossip girl, a-list, etc. quite a while ago but i still read the au pairs

I know what you mean about Prep, even though I liked the novel overall. The main character was quite shallow and small minded, but she came from a small town. The author mentioned how she was supposed to be annoying and piss the reader off sometimes. I was more fascinated by a prep school that took place in the 70's.
