So Not Okay: Mean Girl Makeover by Nancy Rue

So Not Okay: Mean Girl Makeover by Nancy Rue, 304 pages

Fictional story about bullying and how NOT to fight it along with tips and tricks on the best way to stop bullying. The story wasn't too well written, but it was still an okay read. Definitely something that the family can read together.

MSCHMITT-- A Bad Case of Stripes, Shannon, 32

MSCHMITT-- A Bad Case of Stripes, Shannon, 32

Camilla Cream worries too much about how others think of her- so much, in fact, that she starts developing a very odd condition- from stripes to stars, to twigs sprouting out from her.  A book about being yourself.

Vampire Kisses by Ellen Schreiber

"Vampire Kisses" by Ellen Schreiber, 208 pages


What newly-turned 16year old Raven would love more than anything is to become a vampire. She's wanted to be one since she was a child and happily told her teacher that was what she dreamed of becoming. Heavily into anything to deal with vampires, Raven is fearless, inquisitive and the bad-girl outcast of her school/family/life. When the old abandoned "castle" in her neighborhood becomes occupied by a mysterious family with a pale faced teenage boy (Alexander) she is sure he is a vampire. The book was a quick read and pretty predictable. It's definitely more for a "fill in the time" airy type of reading instead of anything of substance. Content makes this book appropriate for the later teen years and up.
