Boyfriend Material
By Alexis J. HallLuc is not boyfriend material - he’s a wild drunk party animal that passes out in the street gutters in strange outfits. At least according to the tabloids that chase him because of his parent’s fame (he actually works at a charity and happened to trip in the street - though he was wearing bunny ears at the time). But this public image and his past has ruined his self-confidence and dating life, a huge problem given that he actually has an event where he needs a date.

Ignite Me
By Tahereh MafiIgnite Me is pure perfection. The characters, connections, plot, and everything
is beautifully written. Out of all the books in the Shatter Me series, this one is
probably my favorite. A lot of things change throughout this book, so it really
stands out from the others.
The True Confessions of Charlotte Doyle takes you through a young girl’s story in the Victorian Era. With exciting plot twists and a fun storyline, she learns to think for herself and who she truly is, even though the people around her might not approve. On a voyage to America, she discovers why she is on that ship, followed by a mystery. I enjoyed reading this book because of its wonderful storyline and mysterious foreshadowing. I can connect with the characters and it is easy to follow along.
