Attack on Titan: Before the Fall 1 by Ryo Suzukaze
3.0
Man, I was hoping this would explain where the Titans came from! Oh well.
Grasshopper Jungle by Andrew Smith

"Hey Angie, what are you reading?"
"Oh, a book about a sexually confused teenager who is recording the history of the end of the world as a viral mold turns his townfolk into 6 foot-tall, man-eating mantises."
"..."
And you know what? It is a WONDERFUL book! Yes, it sounds like a B-movie plot, and it pretty much is, but the writing and the characters are top notch. I think I laughed out loud SO many times. It is definitely a book for older teens, but heck, if you're hooked by page 2 like I was, I don't care who reads it, as long as they get just as much enjoyment out of it as I did.

This book had a wonderful plot, but the ending was kind of blah. Otherwise it would have gotten 5 stars!
This One Summer by Mariko Tamaki
5.0
A great book that really gets the feel for summer friendship and growing up as a girl. Sure you talk to your best friend about this new world you're starting to discover about boys, sex, and your own development, but also what you don't understand about this new world. Love and sex can be entirely different things and people are not always who they seem, no matter how much you love them.
Dark Days by Derek Landy

Oh man, things are getting really real here! The characters go through a lot of development in this book. Can't wait to read even more! Seriously, you cannot fail with this series!
UnDivided by Neal Shusterman
5.0
Oh the feels! The feels! Once again, this book, much like the first, gave me all the feels. It was a wonderful conclusion to a wonderful series. While book 2 and 3 were good, the first and last book are amazing. I simply am super happy and amazed with these books. Just ask the people who worked with me the night I finished this books. I was literally tearing up while on the reference desk. Argh! So gooooooood!
Millennium Snow, Vol. 2 by Bisco Hatori

Cute, silly, makes no sense, tons of plot holes. So... your traditional shoujo manga.
