 * =start date= || =title= || =author= || =end date= || =recommend?= ||
 * 9/27 || Thirteen Reasons Why || Jay Asher || 10/1 || YES!... really really good book.. shows you how much your words can mean to others. (peer text from ms Jack) ||
 * 10/3 || Before I Die || Jenny Downham || 10/7 || Yes I would recommend...it's a sad book but it's entertaining and talks about a sort of bucket list of a teen girl. Also talks about friendship and how much you would be willing to put your life aside to help a friend. ||
 * 10/11 || Hate List || Jennifer Brown || 10/17 || Yes! Talks about how your words/actions affect others, and how the littlest things you do can actually mean a lot to someone else whether you know it or not. Also talks about recovering from traumatic events. ||
 * 10/17 || Girl Bomb || Janice Earlbaum ||  || let Jamine know what you think of this book---it's the prequel to the one she is reading now (mrs J 10/20) still reading.  ||
 * 10/21/11 || Perfect Chemistry || Simone Elkeles || 10/24 || Definitely recommend..I know a lot of people who have read this so I gave it a try... really good book. Involves unlikely pairings but shows that opposites reallly can attract, and you probably have more in common with people than you think you do. ||
 * 10/28 || Rules of Attraction || Simone Elkeles || 10/31 || Next book after perfect chemistry... I recommend this one as well.. often the sequel to a great book isn't as good.. but in my opinion this book is just as good as the first. ||
 * 11/01/11 || Chain Reaction || Simone Elkeles || 11/08 || I really liked this book, but not as much as the first two in the series. I still recommend reading (and obviously if you read the first two you'd read this anyway) but I think I just got tired of the characters. It was still pretty good but I just liked the first two a little more! ||
 * 12/6 || Dear John || Nicholas Sparks || 12/19 || Reallly liked this book.. I used it for my movie book project, and picked it because I like other Nicholas Sparks books. I recommend reading it! ||
 * 12/24 || Perks of Being a wallflower || Stephen Chbosky || 1/13 || I read this because a lot of friends recommended it.. and it turned out to be reallly good. It kind of reminds me of the Catcher in the Rye except much better!! ||
 * 1/15 || The Five People You Meet in Heaven || 1/26 || Mitch Albom || This book took me a while to finish because I never really got into it...it was OK.. but not too great.. I don't really recommend reading it. ||
 * MP2 || The Rules of Survival || MP2 || Nancy Werlin || I didn't think I'd like this book when I first started it because it seemed kind of slow but after a while it got better and I actually did like it :) ||
 * MP3 || Just Listen || MP3 || Sarah Dessen || Not a huge fan of this book but it was alright.. it's a pretty quick read. My friend is a huge fan of Sarah Dessen so I tried it out, but it's not greaaat. ||
 * MP3 || Reasons to Be Happy ||  || MP3 || I really liked this book and thought it was inspiring but think it'd be better for someone a few years younger. ||
 * MP3 || The Glass Castle ||  || MP3 || I really really enjoyed this book, especially because it's a true story. It made me appreciate things I take for granted in my life. I HIGHLY recommend reading this book! ||
 * MP3 || The Last Song || Nicholas Sparks || MP3 || I reread this book for about the 5th time and enjoyed it just as much. This is my favorite Nicholas Sparks books and I recommend it! ||
 * MP3 || Go Ask Alice ||  || MP3 || Reread this book. I originally read it in 8th grade, and I enjoyed it much more when i read it now. ||
 * MP4 || Marley and Me ||  || MP4 || I didn't like this book as much as other people seemed to have liked it! But it was still a cute story. ||
 * MP4 || The Burn Journals ||  || MP4 || I really really liked this book. It was very interesting especially because it was a true story-- i really like memoir type books. ||
 * MP4 || After ||  || MP4 || I liked this book.. i didn't particularly like the way the narration was..it'd be better if the main character was the narrator..but it was overall a good book and it was interesting too. I suggest reading it. ||
 * MP4 || The Sky is Evrywhere ||  || MP4 || still reading ||
