I read Everyday. It is an amazing book. Heather, you would love this book.
I second sisterhood of the traveling pants. I have been meaning to read it for awhile but have been busy reading other books. I did read the second book for a school assignment and it was good. I liked the second book
Aww, I want an excuse to reread the traveling pants series!!! But also, Saint Anything by Sarah Dessen comes out in May! So we could so that
"First Love" by James Patterson and Emily Raymond. It's an amazing love story.
fangirl would be good since i haven't read it yet.
The Lunar Chronicles (Cinder, Scarlet, Cress) by Marissa Meyer. I've read the first book and it was very good. It's a modern take on some classic fairy tales like Cinderella (obviously) and Little Red Riding Hood. :)
Looking for Alaska is absolutely amazing. Would love to discuss it with others.I also have If I Stay and haven't read it yet. I've heard good things about it.
Those two would be my votes/nominations. :)
