Friday Five

1. So testing is over but guess what I got?

A FLIPPIN' COLD!  UGH.

2. So I've been reading... a lot!  Oh, and napping a lot too.


5 To 1 by Holly Bodger


My YA Books Central review: http://www.yabookscentral.com/yafiction/17886-5-to-1

Teaser:

Powerful insight into a community where an lofty goal of righting past injustices against women is manipulated into denying freedom and choices for all. A good book club candidate that is sure to fuel discussions on Utopian societies where roles have been exchanged with painful consequences.









3. 
THE KIDNEY HYPOTHETICAL by Lisa Yee


YA Books Central review:http://www.yabookscentral.com/yafiction/18071-the-kidney-hypothetical 

Teaser: Engaging hilarious tale of a teen who finds out that his so-called future might not be what he really wants. Only when he takes destiny into his own hands can he embrace his future. Add a fun assortment of other characters and you have a winning story!



4. MODERN MONSTERS  by Kelley York



YA Books Central review: http://www.yabookscentral.com/yafiction/18109-modern-monsters

Teaser: An haunting glimpse into a party gone bad and the real monsters who chose someone to take the fall without caring about the consequences. But mostly this is a story of a teen who ends up finding his voice and the courage to right his name in face of almost unbeatable odds.







5. POPULAR by Maya Van Wagenen



YA Books Central review:http://www.yabookscentral.com/yanonfiction/18116-popular-how-a-geek-in-pearls-discovered-the-secret-to-confidence 

Teaser: Enchanting journey of a real teen's popularity experiment that will have you laugh, smile, and cheer her on as she finds the real key to popularity. A must read!


**Yes, it's been a great week for reading!!!!






**Guilty Pleasure:
Hope this stupid cold goes away or I can at least do something besides sleeping.

Already broke down and got one of these on Tuesday-before the cold came on.

So yummy.  Make sure to purchased the cookie straw for .95 cents more.  Totally worth it.
