Good old Walt

I printed off from black cat poems "There was a child went forth" yes yes i know longggggggggggg. i got a little bit of it as far as the things that the child saw day to day he kept with him and they became him. as life went on he remember them and they were always with him.

Beanball

This was a new ya book. It was really good. It was a short quick read and would be perfect for those who dont mind sports to much, and dont really like to read that often. The teen in this book i feel so bad for, his life comes to a complete stop. I also love the way the book was written, not really in poetry form, but it was told by several different points of view. Was a very good sports book everyone should read it.

Skin

This book was written from 14 yr. old Donnie's view. (Or whatever the word would be). His sister Karen has an eating disorder, she is anorexic. They go through the book with her in the hospital a couple of times, their father moving out and only coming around when he feels like it. Making trouble when he does. Their mom trying to get Karen to eat and keep up with the house, and trying to start back work again. Donnie is slowly watching his sister slip away, trying everything he can to make her better. This was a really good book, a little bit of a tear jerker towards the end. Im sure you would really enjoy it if you only gave it a chance.

Shug

This book was really good, (then again most of all the ya books i read are good). Annemarie is 12. She is dealing with all the troubles of moving up in school and being excepted, BOYS!!! all the wonderful things of getting older. She has to deal with family drama, school drama, friend drama. She finds out the boy she really really likes dont like her, and the boy she hates likes her. (Isnt that they way it goes)! In the end she works with her parents opens up and tells them how she really feels about all their fighting, and has that first kiss (With Who?) read the book.

Letting go of Lisa

This young adult book is by an author who writes about teens and children who have illnesses. Tumors, cancer, etc. In this book Lisa has Glioma (which is a type of brain tumor). Her mom and her mom's livein boyfriend are letting her do here thing. No curfews and things like that letting her live out the few months that she knows she has left. In the beginning she drives her Harley and doesn't care if she misses a few classes here and there. Unitl she meets Nathan(or Nathan almost hits her in the school parking lot). She changes with the love from Nathan and they make it through her difficult time together. Of course this is a tear jerker. Lurlene McDaniels books are. But when you go from reading vampire books and horror and killing, she is a good break from it all. She really makes you feel like you know the people with these diseases. Even if you don't read this particular book read one of hers.
