Fake ID
Chastity Purehart(No, that's not actually her real name)is on the run. From what? She has absolutely no idea. But when suddenly her mom dissapears, and thugs start coming after her looking for some tape, she has 6 days before she goes to a foster home, and in those 6 days, she HAS to figure out about her past and why she and her mom were running.

Ella Enchanted
A baby girl has a "gift,"(it's not really a gift, more like a HORRIBLE, NASTY CURSE) the gift of obediance, given to her by a fairy, Lucinda. When her father marries a ladie who just marries him for his title, he also inherrits two step daughters. Of course, as we all know, the two stepsisters
are EVIL and they make her life miserable. All the girls in the kingdom are in love with this stupid prince dude, but Ella is not and then blah blah blah she falls for him but she doesnt want to marry him because someone might make her kill him and of course if someone tells her to she has to, so she goes on a long adventure trying to get away from the prince and I make this sound sorta boring but it's really not.

I love this book because it's really touching. Just so you know, the book is ABSOLUTELY NOTHING! like the movie. There isn't even an evil uncle. That's a mouthful, try saying that 5x fast.

The Wish
Wilma is always ignored. Always. But when she helps an old lady into her seat, all that is about to change. But it's not permenant.

I Like this book cause it's just nice, and short, and la-dee-da

The House Of the Scorpion
The House of the Scorpion is about a boy(Mateo Allacran) who grows up(sometime in the WAY future, and it's not a cool future) not knowing anything about his background. He later discovers that he is a clone(EXTREMELY disgusting and unworthy animals in most people's opinions) And he has to live, having everyone hate him for absolutely no good reason. He tries to figure out why clones are hated and the answer is shocking.

I LOVE this book because it is such a good book and there's no way that I can exactly discribe it but it's a GREAT book and I love it and please read it if there's one book on this whole list that you read, read this one if you understand any word that I have just typed.

The Curious Incedent of the Dog in the Night Time
Christopher Boone is writing a mystery novel. Everything in it is true. He can't tell lies, because he never knows which lie to pick. Christopher is not a normal kid. He has "special needs" or so they call it. It's his own world. He just thinks differently than most people. His novel is about who killed a dog named Wellington. When he finally uncovers the truth, he has to be very brave and go on an adventure that no one would expect from him.

I love this book because it is written as if it could be true. It really helped me understand mental problems that some people have.

The Shakespeare Stealer
When a boy is put in the position of stealing shakespeare's works, while being part of his company, he must face the challenge of deciding whether or not he wants to.

I Love this book because it is written very well and you see that decisions can be very tough to make sometimes...especially if it means telling the truth.

The Year of the Hangman
This book is what might happen if the Americans didn't win the American revolution.
Creighton is used to not having to do any work and staying up late drinking and playing cards.
But when he is forced to go to America, and sent as a spy, he has to choose where his loyalties really lie.

I Love this book because it is so...suspenseful? I literally couldnt put it down because I couldn't bear to part with it.

She is AMAZING. Here are some of her books that I have read and love:

Running Out Of Time
About a girl who lives in the 1800's when a deadly disease starts spreading into her village. She has to help find a doctor and discovers a secret kept from most of the community

I love this book because of the suspense and the way Haddix describes the world through a fresh pair of eyes

Escape From Memory
Kira-or something with a k-doesn't know anything about her past. But she does know that she and her mother are different. When a stranger comes over to her house and calls herself Aunt Memory, she lures Kira out of the safety of her town and Kira must learn-the hard way- about her past when she is in grave life-or-death danger.

I love this book because of it's could be real feeling. It's also kinda creepy and that adds to the suspence.

House On The Gulf
16 year old Bran has always been a "perfect" kid. He always helps out around the house. Works to help his mom. Comes home before curfew, But when Bran, his little sister Britt, and their mom move to florida so their mom can get a scholarship for university, Britt knows that there's something weird going on with Bran....and the house that the'yre staying at.

I like this book because it is full of surprises. Besides the fact that it's written really well.

Turnabout
There's a new test around and the'yre testing it on people in Hospises.
Promises to reverse the aging process, and keep you forever young. But what if you're in the test, and something goes wrong?

I love this book becauseit's written in a back and forth beetween two old ladies and two teens who may eventually die because they are becoming younger and younger.

The Shadow Children Series:
Among the Hidden
Among the Imposters
Among the Betrayed
Among the Barons
Among the Brave
Among the Enemy
In a country whith population police, you are only allowed to have two children, but there are many who are in hiding from the population police -the Shadow Children. THis series is about a few children who try to stand up for their rights to live, and must face the challenge of standing together to rebel-instead of hiding up in their rooms with the blinds drawn.

I Love the Shadow children series because it could be real. these stories are coming of age books and the fact that the government isn't always good.

Welcome!
