Three is a Magic Number

I love this quote. It definitely explains life. Sorry it took so long for me to get back, I've been super busy with school and all the books I had to read for class! But don't worry, I'm not going to bore you with facts from "East of Eden". Which actually isn't half bad...just saying...
This post, I'm going to talk about three books. The first is a sequel, called "Movers and Fakers". The second is called "Vive la Paris." The third is "I'm Exploding Now".

"Movers and Fakers" by Lisi Harrison, is a sequel to the book "Alphas". I may have reviewed it, but honestly I can't remember. So I'll do a recap. "Alphas" is a spin off novel from "The Clique". There are a few main characters. Skye, a frustrated dancer who just needs to have fun; Charlie, the wiz kid who can't get a break in love; Allie J/Allie A, the singer in disguise; and of course the Darwin boys. I love these books, particularly the second one, because everything is so out of this world. There are clear planes, holograms, personalized "aPods", and best of all, mirrors that show you EXACTLY what you want to see. It's amazing. Recommended for girls age 11 and up.

The second book, "Vive la Paris" by Esme Raji Codell, is a work of art. It takes place in Chicago, and is told by Paris McCoy. She is a fifth grader who doesn't quite understand the world outside her community. She takes piano lessons, but learns a lot more than the names of the notes. Her crazy piano teacher, Mrs. Rosen (I think), teachers her the meaning of life, and a lot about history. I personally think this book would make an excellent movie. Recommended for kids age 12 and up.

The last book is called "I'm Exploding Now" by Sid Hite. It is about a boy in his late teens who thinks he is going no where. He is in love with his best friend but can't tell her, his other bestie hasn't been the same since the mental instituition, and his little sister is growing up faster than he is. Yeah, he's kind of a mess. It takes place in the summer before his senior year, a common time for teen books. He thinks he is going crazy so he keeps a journal all summer. It deals with his battles with girls, and with life in general. This book is very deep. Recommended for people ages 13 and up.

That's all for this post, I promise there will be another one soon!
