[This is How I Find Her] by [Sara Polsky] was a different take on dealing with mental illness for YA. Instead of the teen struggling with her own mental illness she is struggling with her mom who suffers from it. [Polsky] does a good job showing the struggles of those who love someone who has a mental illness in all different ways. I will be adding this book to my classroom library.

I'm a huge fan of cyber punk and science fiction, so I was drawn to the hype on this book. It has a slow start, so I almost gave up. I'm glad I didn't, however, and you will be too. Especially if you were a teen in the 80s, the nostalgia filled quest for the holy Grail ..errr...egg will catch you

Not bad
Not too bad. Felt kind of like a teen x-men story. The acting was decent and the cinematography and effects were pretty cool. Hard to say it's "great" as these types of movies are done a lot(people with powers). This was a decent take on the subject matter, though. It's also safe for the kids to watch with you on family movie night. Plenty of entertainment. Worth a watch!

This Middle Grade trilogy comes to an end as modern day teen Greg Rich must figure out a way to save seventeenth century France and find the stone that will take his family home. Fasted paced action made it hard to put down, and I loved every second of the race to the end.

Archer does a great job of making being a nerd cool. She is a master of creating a sweet love story between girls you would think would be total social opposites. This book, like others I have read by Archer, is YA/teen friendly so it can be suggested to those young girls just coming out. In fact both main characters deal with questions about their sexuality throughout most of the book.
