I recommend Potok's books. They gave me a real insight into Jewish life in the US. I had virtually no exposure to Judaism growing up so Potok's books were/are a way to see it from the inside. I'm currently re-reading this, I must have first read it about 20 years ago now.

i was kind of surprised that i liked this, although i guess i shouldn't have been - i always dig a good quest tale. once you get part the ridiculous part about daemons and some of the plot loop holes like "isn't this girl 11?" it's pretty catching. the movie comes out in december and may or may not be related to a certain company i work for..

Kiki & Jules Rating: 5 Stars and then some!! This final chapter of The Iron Fey series, The Iron Knight, was flat out phenomenal. We absolutely loved it!! We really took our time reading this book solely because we just didn't want it to end. It was written beautifully by Julie Kagawa. It took us up and down through a roller coaster of emotions, and kept us guessing until the very end. I'm sure soon, in the not too distant future, we will be feeling withdrawals and re-read the series all over again!! The Iron Knight made a change and is written from Ash's point of view. In this last installment, Ash, the exiled Winter Prince, is on a quest to fulfill his promise to Meghan Chase, Iron Queen, and return to her forever. The only way for Ash to survive the Iron Kingdom is for him to find a soul and become human. Before he can do this he must locate the ever elusive Grimalkin and find his way to the end of the world. Along for the ride is Puck, who appears to not be wanted by Ash due to his constant poking of the hornet's nest, but in all reality is Ash's true and only friend. There were times that we felt Puck stole the show. With his never ending side comments and quips during battles, we laughed until we cried. We really don't think the book would have been the same without Puck. There is so much involved in Ash's quest that there is never any shortage of excitement and adventure. You see the warrior in him, and for once your feel all the emotion he holds for Megan. What he thought in the past as a weakness now drives him on. He will fulfill his duty for her or die trying. No matter the danger or depth of his challenge Ash never wavered from his quest until Ariella, his first love, returns from "the dead". Guilt over the time lost with Ariella and the fear of not fulfilling his promise to Meghan threatens to pull Ash apart. Ariella tries to calm the storm revealing that she purposely hid herself from Puck and Ash to ensure that they meet Megan. She explains how as a seer she saw that it was Ash's destiny to save Megan, and in turn save all of Fey. But she does let her jealousy and love of Ash get the best of her and interferes at every turn whenever Ash has a fleeting moment with Megan. It was enough to drive any man insane. Along with her return comes the anger and pain Ash has toward Puck causing an even bigger web to be weaved. It isn't until near the end of the Gauntlet that Ash discovers himself. He sees his future with Megan, even the loss of his own life, and he sees what it truly means to have a soul. It is then he sees that he has nothing without Megan, and even if he is to die in the end it would be worth it just to be with her. From every moment, to every conversation, to the depth of the characters, and the vivid settings, all the way up to the very end this book was amazing!! What else can we say! Happy Reading ~Kiki & Jules

I really could not enjoy The Graveyard Book. The beginning ruined the book for me with the nasty murders and an escaping toddler. I am really not a fan of books that murder or bring severe hardship to children. There is a possibility I could teach this in a classroom, but to be honest I would probably just have it sitting on my shelf in the classroom available to students if they wanted to read it.

Evie's family shrinks from four - Dad, Mom, Evie and Mousse the dog - to only Evie and her mother. Eventually, however it expands to include Dad, Angie (her stepmother), elderly Mrs. Hamilton next door and few little surprises as well. Evie takes after her father who is a celebrity chef. She loves to cook and since Mom doesn't that leaves Evie free to experiment in the kitchen. Each chapter concludes with a recipe, many of which kids will want to try for themselves. This is an enjoyable quick read about a young teen coping with the divorce of her parents as well as the remarriage of her father.

I'm not sure Scott Pilgrim will ever get it together, but it's another funny slice in his life. Everything is coming up little bunnies and chickies! (Kind of a spoiler but not really)

** spoiler alert ** *I received a free copy of this book through GoodReads First Reads.* Exposure by Therese Fowler jumps into what some teens are really doing on the Internet or with their personal electronic devices. This book deals candidly with the issue of sexting. It reveals the very real consequences of this issue, especially when there are underage people involved. It doesn’t really matter if the people involved are in love, as they are in this book. Exposure is, to me, a Romeo and Juliet story for the digital age. Forces are at work–stupidity, parents, the law, public opinion–that are threatening to drive a young couple apart. Will they go the same road as young Romeo and Juliet? You’ll have to read to find out. Amelia and Anthony are in love. Yes, she’s seventeen, and he’s eighteen, but age is just a number. Right? These two young lovers are determined to spend their lives together, no matter what people say. And people, especially Amelia’s father, have plenty to say…especially when he finds nude pictures of Anthony on Amelia’s computer. As a father who is convinced his daughter can do no wrong, Harlan Wilkes just knows that Anthony is trying to corrupt his perfect little girl. There’s no way she would willingly have these explicit images on her computer. So he does what most concerned fathers would do. He calls the police. One phone call. One phone call to the police, and everything spins out of control. Anthony is completely villified, but Amelia doesn’t escape unscathed herself. Even Anthony’s mom is caught up in this storm. It seems there is no escape from this maelstrom…or is there? Is there a way for Anthony and Amelia to get out of this mess? What will it cost them? What is the price to be paid for the recklessness of youth? Read Exposure by Therese Fowler to find out. Exposure is a very powerful book, particularly because it presents the story not only from Amelia and Anthony’s perspectives but also because it gives a look into what their parents are thinking and going through. And even though the ending is a wee bit unrealistic, I think this story will resonate with both teens and parents on the issues of sexting and using technology responsibly. Exposure is scheduled to be released on May 3rd, and I strongly encourage teens and parents of teens to pick it up.
