TeenLit Book Reviews

This book I've read was amazing that I would give it a 4. I think anyone should read this book from 12 or 13 years and up. Females and males are welcome to read this book,but I guess boys aren't really going to be interested. There is a girl named Bec that goes probably to 8th or 10th grade because she goes to school on a higher level. She has two siblings, which are Bing(a little girl) and a boy who's intelligent named Josh. The setting is mostly at their home and school. The main conflict is that Bec wants to decided if she should be with a boy named Steve or a boy named Nick. Some strengths of this book is that is was very interestesting and it had great desciptions of the characters and places. I would like to read more books that aresort of like this or romance books too.

I think this book is fit for anyone who has ever had problems with teasing, or who is interested in learning about it. Fat Boy Swim is about a fourteen year old boy who is always being teast by ignorant school mates. He is mainly teased about his weight problem. Throughout the book he meets different people, such as GI Joe, Elle and Aunt Pol, who help him pursue his dream as well as find his true identity. While reading this book I felt I could relate to the main character. I was always met with surprises in each chapter that kept me reading. I would definitely rate this book a 4.

The title and author of the book I read are A Great and Terrible Beauty by Libby Bray. On a scale of 1-4, with 4 being the best, I would rate this book a 4. genre of this book is fiction. People my age, or most middle schoolers, would probably like this book. The book takes place in India then in London at a school named Spence. Much of the book involves in a magical garden, but I don't want to give it away! The book is great except for all the diffrent settings, which can sometimes make it confusing, but I would still recommend this to everyone.
