Lemonade Mouth by Mark Peter Hughes

I found this book to be a great read for people of all ages. It really brought back high school memories of trying to fit in and that awkwardness teens feel upon entering their freshmen year. That impactful moment when one decision actually impacts our way of thinking at that age. For the characters in Lemonade Mouth it's their decisions and their need to belong that sets this story in motion. Each character adds to the story, with Hughes adding each characters own personal monologues from their perspective of what was happening to lead them to start a band.

Reading The Secret Garden by Frances Hodgson Burnett

I read this when I was in elementary school. Saw the play and the movie; however, I don't really recall the premise of the book. So I have decided to reread it. I am very excited, because so far it is very good. I realize why I was such a fan of the book in the first place. I would reenact famous scenes from the book on the playground with friends. I can't wait to read this one and the rest of the authors other famed book, such as Little Princess.

Finished reading Rules of Attraction by Simone Elkeles

I believe when I say that I am not the only girl to have a list of must's and have nots of my ideal guy. I know what I like and I hope to be able to one day find that person. However, I am realistic and I know that my ideal guy may be a guy who has none of the qualities I want, but I would still have strong feelings for them. In the case of Kiara and Carlos that is exactly what happened. Two people who felt they had everything figured out as to who they want, but you can't help who you fall for, even if you try to have rules to attraction. This book was amazing in continuing the story of the Fuentes brothers, this time with Alex's brother Carlos. I really enjoyed the storyline of no-nonsense Kiara and Bad Boy Carlos.

I hope I can enjoy it. The language is old and I tend to get bored very easily by less than modern language.
