Guts by Raina Telegeimer astounds me! Mainly because this book goes on a more personal level when talking about fears and anxieties. It an absolutely amazing story that is a must-read! Raina is in fourth grade, she is a shy self-consious nervous girl! After the rounds of stomach bug hit her school she gets a new fear! A fear of throwing up. Because of that she would get sensitive on conversation topics, and it didn't help that at the time fourth grade was a "gross out contest" But her fear of vomit made a new problem. She wouldn't eat!! AT ALL!?! Beans make you gassy and that would embarrass yourself! Cheese wouldn't be good either! AND DEFINITELY NOT ARTICHOKES. And with a family that has Tacos almost every day her parents start to notice, taking her to a therapist to help her out, her new therapist tells Raina everyone has fears! And you shouldn't be afraid! This book is truly wonderful and I'd hate to spoil it! So you should definitely check it out!

Moon Rising (Wings of Fire, Book 6)
By Tui T. Sutherland
This is for sure one of the best books in the series! It follows Moonwatcher a Nightwing with mind reading abilities who is attending Jade Mountain Academy a school started by The Dragonets of Destiny. This book is wonderful for fantasy lovers! Moonwatcher has to hide her abilities in fear of other dragons not liking her, and that makes her shy, but at her new school there all so many potential friends in her winglet! Maybe some more than friends ;) But while she has her new friends and she is shy she is also hearing a voice... A mysterious voice she must find out who it is, but she also gathers information that Queen Scarlet is still alive and is coming back, she has to save the day! At all costs. I recommend this book for ages 10 and up for violence, other than that it is a wonderful stay up all night book!!! Happy Reading!
