Burn Baby Burn
By Meg Medina
I just finished reading this book, and I really liked it. It takes place in the late '70s in New York, when the Son of Sam was on the loose, murdering unsuspecting people. It was a difficult time in the history of New York (which I just learned, although my aunt remembers), and the main character was also facing challenges in her own family. I learned a lot from this book, not just about history, but also about standing up for what's right as well as yourself.
The Seventh Most Important Thing
By Shelley Pearsall
I really loved this book! At first, I thought it was a bit confusing as you were placed in court with the main character (Arthur Owens) Answering the judges' questions. This book starts with Arthur Owens in court, the book gives you a flashback about what he did and how he landed in Juvie. He threw a brick at a man and was sentenced to work for the man for 140 hours. The reason he threw a brick, gave me empathy for him. The book went on and I learned about what happened to Arthur Owen's life. You also saw the relationship between the man he hit and him. For all the reasons and more I loved this book! This also was a true story which makes it even better.
Backlash
By Sarah Darer Littman, Sarah Littman
This is the type of book you can re-read over and over again and it will never get boring. Sarah Darer Littman mixed how its like to be a teen with troubles and what its like to be the one causing the troubles. Its a must read!

Dork Diaries OMG!: All About Me Diary!
By Rachel Renée Russell
Well I have read all of the Dork Diaries and they are all about Nikki Maxwell's middle school experience and Rachel Renee Russell is very descriptive in her books with the settings,characters and others.There really is nothing bad about her books but if you like girl drama you've come to the right series.
