In September, the library’s shipment of new books arrived, so of course, I had to pick up a few to read. The books that I read were just for fun, nothing too serious. I’m actually glad that I read them because at the time, I didn’t want to deal with anything too deep or involved. I have been enjoying a nice break from the drama-ridden teen books that my students love. I read these books:
The Luxe by Anna Godbersen (This is like Gossip Girls in the late 1800′s. I am looking forward to reading the next one.)
Airhead by Meg Cabot (This story is about a tomboy whose brain is transferred into the body of a top model)
Oh.My.Goth by Gena Showalter( A goth girl is transported to an alternate world)
Oh.My.God by Teraan Lynn Childs (This is basically a greek myth-teen drama story)
I have read books by Gena Showalter geared toward older readers. This is her first book for young adults. It’ll be interesting to see how much she tones it down for younger readers.
