SYNOPSIS:<br />
"<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">Seventeen-year-old Riley, the only daughter of legendary Demon Trapper, Paul Blackthorne, has always dreamed of following in her father's footsteps. The good news is, with human society seriously disrupted by economic upheaval and Lucifer increasing the number of demons in all major cities, Atlanta’s local Trappers’ Guild needs all the help they can get—even from a girl. When she’s not keeping up with her homework or trying to manage her growing crush on fellow apprentice, Simon, Riley’s out saving distressed citizens from foul-mouthed little devils – Grade One Hellspawn only, of course, per the strict rules of the Guild. Life’s about as normal as can be for the average demon-trapping teen.</span><br />
<br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">But then a Grade Five Geo-Fiend crashes Riley’s routine assignment at a library, jeopardizing her life and her chosen livelihood. And, as if that wasn’t bad enough, sudden tragedy strikes the Trappers’ Guild, spinning Riley down a more dangerous path than she ever could have imagined. As her whole world crashes down around her, who can Riley trust with her heart—and her life?"-goodreads.com</span>Richton Park Library Teen Hot Spothttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13885025059997509946noreply@blogger.com1tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5095380352780172278.post-39575059983878592992012-11-01T15:02:00.002-05:002012-11-01T15:02:43.019-05:00Butterfly Clues by Kate EllisonWell what a pleasant surprise this book turned out to be! Earlier this school year, I was doing Freshman Orientation at the local high school and finished the incredible book "Monsters of Men" by Patrick Ness and was in need of something to read. Fortunately, the orientations were for the school's library so I was able to easily find a book to read. I checked out the display for "Read for a Lifetime", the state of Illinois' High School Reading Challenge. There I found this book. This book about Lo that has hardcore OCD and hoarding issues whose brother is dead and she wants to know why. I tell ya, it was better than I was expecting. I finished it in about a day and there were some twists and turns that I did not see coming!!! I'm glad that I read this book and urge you to do the same. Check out the synopsis and reviews below!!! And if you are interested in reading the books on the Read for a Lifetime List, check out the link <a href="http://www.cyberdriveillinois.com/departments/library/public/pdfs/readinglist_2012-2013.pdf" target="_blank">here</a>. I have already read quite a few and am looking forward to reading more!<br />

<b>SYNOPSIS</b>: "<span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">Penelope (Lo) Marin has always loved to collect beautiful things. Her dad's consulting job means she's grown up moving from one rundown city to the next, and she's learned to cope by collecting (sometimes even stealing) quirky trinkets and souvenirs in each new place--possessions that allow her to feel at least some semblance of home.</span><br />

She discovers a beautiful, antique butterfly pendant during a routine scour at a weekend flea market, and recognizes it as having been stolen from the home of a recently murdered girl known only as "Sapphire"--a girl just a few years older than Lo. As usual when Lo begins to obsess over something, she can't get the murder out of her mind.</span><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;" /><br style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;" /><span style="background-color: white; color: #181818; font-family: Georgia, serif; font-size: 14px; line-height: 19px;">As she attempts to piece together the mysterious "butterfly clues," with the unlikely help of a street artist named Flynt, Lo quickly finds herself caught up in a seedy, violent underworld much closer to home than she ever imagined--a world, she'll ultimately discover, that could hold the key to her brother's tragic death." -goodreads.com </span>Richton Park Library Teen Hot Spothttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13885025059997509946noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5095380352780172278.post-80235285089220649372012-11-01T14:55:00.004-05:002012-11-01T14:55:53.979-05:00Monsters of Men by Patrick NessHoly Toledo!!!

SYNOPSIS:<br />
"After crossing the Line, Rachel finds herself in a world where survival is never guaranteed - a world where bizarre creatures roam the woods and people have strange abilities. Everything has gone to ruin Away and the survivors have banded into warring clans. Rachel finds her father being held prisoner by a tribe of Others, and she and her new friends set out to rescue him. But when they cross back over the Line, Rachel and Pathik make a foolish decision, bringing them into further danger that can only be resolved with an unthinkable sacrifice.<br />

SYNOPSIS:<br />
"I've seen him on the news. Followed the stories about what happened in Ohio. John Smith, out there, on the run. To the world, he's a mystery. But to me . . . he's one of us. <br />
<br />
<br />
Nine of us came here, but sometimes I wonder if time has changed us—if we all still believe in our mission. How can I know? There are six of us left. We're hiding, blending in, avoiding contact with one another . . . but our Legacies are developing, and soon we'll be equipped to fight. Is John Number Four, and is his appearance the sign I've been waiting for? And what about Number Five and Six? Could one of them be the raven-haired girl with the stormy eyes from my dreams? The girl with powers that are beyond anything I could ever imagine? The girl who may be strong enough to bring the six of us together? <br />
<br />
They caught Number One in Malaysia. <br />
Number Two in England. <br />
And Number Three in Kenya. <br />
They tried to catch Number Four in Ohio—and failed. <br />
<br />
I am Number Seven. One of six still alive. <br />
<br />
And I'm ready to fight." -goodreads.comRichton Park Library Teen Hot Spothttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13885025059997509946noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5095380352780172278.post-63032990788877754262011-09-15T19:15:00.000-05:002011-09-15T19:15:58.146-05:00Heck: Where the Bad Kids GoIt's been a while but I've finally started reading again!!!

SYNOPSIS:<br />
"<span id="freeText7153761412335670423">When Milton and Marlo Fauster die in a marshmallow bear explosion, they get sent straight to Heck, an otherworldly reform school. Milton can understand why his kleptomaniac sister is here, but Milton is—or <em>was</em>—a model citizen. Has a mistake been made? Not according to Bea “Elsa” Bubb, the Principal of Darkness. She doesn’t make mistakes. She personally sees to it that Heck—whether it be home-ec class with Lizzie Borden, ethics with Richard Nixon, or gym with Blackbeard the Pirate—is especially, well, <em>heckish </em>for the Fausters. Will Milton and Marlo find a way to escape? Or are they stuck here for all eternity, or until they turn 18, whichever comes first?"</span>Richton Park Library Teen Hot Spothttp://www.blogger.com/profile/13885025059997509946noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5095380352780172278.post-75541716524971008912011-08-17T11:47:00.000-05:002011-08-17T11:47:47.571-05:00Stoner and Spaz I & IIWell, Hello!<br />

<a href="http://www.goodreads.com/book/show/166999.Stoner_Spaz">REVIEWS</a><br />
"For sixteen-year-old Ben Bancroft — a kid with cerebral palsy, no parents, and an overprotective grandmother — the closest thing to happiness is hunkering alone in the back of the Rialto Theatre and watching Bride of Frankenstein for the umpteenth time. The last person he wants to run into is drugged-up Colleen Minou, resplendent in ripped tights, neon miniskirt, and an impressive array of tattoos. But when Colleen climbs into the seat beside him and rests a woozy head on his shoulder, Ben has that unmistakable feeling that his life is about to change. With unsparing humor and a keen flair for dialogue, Ron Koertge captures the rare repartee between two lonely teenagers on opposite sides of the social divide. His smart, self-deprecating protagonist learns that kindred spirits may be found for the looking — and that the resolve to follow your passion can be strengthened by something as simple as a human touch." -goodreads.com<br />

"Beautiful but troubled Colleen Minou is the only girl who ever looked at Ben Bancroft as more than a spaz— more than just that kid with cerebral palsy. Yet the more time Ben spends with her, the more glaring their differences appear. Is what Ben feels for Colleen actual affection, or more like gratitude? Then there’s Amy (aka A.J.), who is everything Colleen isn’t, and everything Ben’s grandma wants for him: clean-cut and upper-class, academically driven, just as obsessed with filmmaking as Ben is. But what does A.J. see when she looks at Ben? CP? Or the person behind the twisted body? In Ron Koertge’s sharp, darkly humorous follow-up to the award-winning Stoner & Spaz, Ben tries to come to terms with his confused feelings toward A.J. and his inimitable connection to Colleen, who is sometimes out of it, sometimes into him, and always exhilarating."-goodreads.com<br />

It was good! I preferred the first book, Hunger, to this one, but I think that has to do with the fact that I read the entire thing in one sitting. This one took a little longer to get through since I was only reading it on my lunch break; which left me about 10 minutes to actually read!!! The third book comes out in the Spring and is all about Pestilence. It will be called Loss. I'm excited about this one since you don't really see Pestilence in these other two books, it will be interesting to see where the author takes this!

SYNOPSIS:<br />
"Missy didn’t mean to cut so deep. But after the party where she was humiliated in front of practically everyone in school, who could blame her for wanting some comfort? Sure, most people don’t find comfort in the touch of a razor blade, but Missy always was . . . different.<br />
<br />
<br />
That’s why she was chosen to become one of the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse: War. Now Missy wields a new kind of blade—a big, brutal sword that can cut down anyone and anything in her path. But it’s with this weapon in her hand that Missy learns something that could help her triumph over her own pain: control.<br />

SYNOPSIS:<br />
<div style="border-bottom: medium none; border-left: medium none; border-right: medium none; border-top: medium none;"><span id="freeText3865418420423454922">"Troy Billings is seventeen, 296 pounds, friendless, utterly miserable, and about to step off a New York subway platform in front of an oncoming train. Until he meets Curt MacCrae, an emaciated, semi-homeless, high school dropout guitar genius, the stuff of which Lower East Side punk rock legends are made. Never mind that Troy's dad thinks Curt's a drug addict and Troy's brother thinks Troy's the biggest (literally) loser in Manhattan. Soon, Curt's recruited Troy as his new drummer even though Troy can't play the drums. Together, Curt and Troy will change the world of punk, and Troy's own life, forever."-goodreads.com</span></div><br />
