WOW!
WOW! This was an INCREDIBLE book! Well written and a INCREDIBLE story! With shockers and not so surprising events I enjoyed this book VERY MUCH! It made me laugh and cry! Also think about things I generally wouldn't think about. If you have read the Hunger Games, Divergent or The Maze Runner I would suggest these two books. Disruption is first and then this one! WOW!
  
This is probably one of my favorite BSC books. It made sense to me that Mary Anne wouldn't want to talk to Richard about what she found and I adored the fact that none of the BSC really pushed her to talk about what was bugging her; they just let her tell when she was ready.

The census taker part was kind of funny, too.
  
I was sent a copy of this book from Netgalley and the publisher in exchange for an honest review.

I have about 6 books in this series. I adore it. The update gives information about hackers and possibly murderous clowns in addition to getting away from a drone attack.

This book is a quick, easy read and packed with tidbits I hope I'll never end up using.

The Secret by Rhonda Byrne
At first read about 5 years ago I thought this book was a bit to far fetched. How could anyone possible belive the principles they were talking about. However this is a book I read at least every 2 months now. It is all about the law of attraction and the energy around us. It really does work when you think about it. I highly recommend at least a coupleof reads to really understand it. One of my top books ever

This is the book I always wanted to write but lack the talent. I am glad [Brenda Z. Guiberson] wrote it so I can share it with my students. I have a fascination with disasters and have since I was young. Unfortunately most of the books about them is not written for a middle school reader. I have had some of the books [Guiberson] used to research on my class shelves for years with few takers. This is just the type of book needed to get them reading non fiction and enjoy it.

Let me preface this by saying that I might be biased, since I have loved everything Neil Gaiman has written. Still, I'm generally not a big fan of nonfiction, especially essays and speeches, and I have loved this. Part of that is that it is speeches and essays about reading, books, comics, and the people that made some of my favorite books and comics. There is humor, passion, intelligence, and nostalgia in almost every essay.
It took me longer to finish this than it usually would, and I thoroughly enjoyed every minute of it.

This is the third book in the series by this author. These books should be red in order, as this is the continuing story. Each one of the books is about a different brother but brought together to make one bigger story. Amazing characters you will just fall in love with. A fantastically written story that will keep you hooked to the last page. I can't wait to read more from this author in the future.
Highly recommended
I voluntarily reviewed an advance reader copy of this book

I like this book a lot, you don't see many lesbian-themed YA books out there. I'm 26 but I missed out on youth fiction geared toward me as a youth. I had vampire books, that's about it. :/ anyway, pros: it was well written, truthful, and heartfelt. Cons: I did not like the Main Character's Dialogue. She sounded very juvenile for her age and spoke in a way I'd never heard myself as a 17 year old (half) tortillera. All in all I enjoyed the story, I liked the characters and I liked the ending. :)
