See You At Harry's by Jo Knowles

     See You At Harry's is a book worth reading. The books seemed to start out slow, and like any other YA book I've read. I wasn't impressed. Wow, was I wrong. This book made me feel thousands of things that I didn't know I could feel. Halfway through the book, I was sobbing. I never stopped. The entire story was so heart-wrenching, but there was that small glimmer of hope that kept me smiling through my tears. I can relate to Fern, in the way she felt invisible sometimes to her family. I can't say too much about the book without spoilers, but I can say that it is about a 12 year old girl, Fern, going through life feeling something like a wallflower. A major tragedy occurs, and then there's the handsome Ran and the love-struck Cassie by her side. I loved every bit of this book, to the point where I wanted to reread it immediately upon finishing it.

The Bell Jar by Sylvia Plath

So I've been exhausted with spring vacation, socializing, and tests in school, which meant it took me awhile to get through this book. The Bell Jar was a wonderful story, and I've been meaning to read it for so so long. It centers around a girl named Esther, who begins to battle depression as she continues through life.

This book was slow moving in my opinion. It only slightly took away from the story for me, but the writing made up for it. I would find myself relating to Esther, but in some cases it seemed exaggerated. I enjoyed the story, but because it took me so long, I didn't enjoy it as much as I probably would have.

Slice of Cherry by Dia Reeves

So lately I haven't been reading as often, but the last book I read was Slice Of Cherry by Dia Reeves. This book centers around two girls, following in the footsteps of their killer of a father, otherwise known as The Bonesaw Killer. There's a twist though: they only kill those who are causing harm to others. this entire book is set in a fantasy town with monsters and other creepy and twisted things.

This book reminded me of what I had heard about the television show Dexter. I haven't actually watched the show, but it's the same idea: person kills bad guys. The writing was decent, and the plot was extremely original. It was pretty unpredictable, though I could kind of predict how the ending was going to go once I got somewhat far into the book.

 Before reading this book, I heard some pretty mixed reviews about the story. Some thought it was confusing, or not a very good read. Others loved the book, and raved about how great it was. I can honestly say, I loved every little bit of this book. It's probably one of my new favorites.
