About Me

I'm the school librarian at G.S. Lakie Middle School. As you can see - me, reading and comfy chairs go way back. I still enjoy Asterix and many other graphic novels. My main reason for blogging is for reviewing books for the students and anyone else that might be interested in YA literature.

Amazing Grace


Amazing Grace by Megan Shull
Girls this one is for you - if you need a light read for pure escapism then try this one. it was one of my summer reads and was perfect for one of our many rainy days this summer. Not overly taxing on the brain but just a fun read with just the right amount of romance thrown in.
Here's the summary:
Teen superstar Grace Kinclaid has it all, an electric smile, million-dollar endorsement deals, and blond covergirl looks. But what happens when America's "It" girl doesn't want to be "it" anymore? With paparazzi stalking her every move, Grace quietly slips out of a TeenPeople photo shot, ducks the press, and calls her mom from a boiler room of the fabled USTA National Tennis Centre. And right there, in her custom-made Nike warm-ups, tears streaming down her face , Grace says the three magic words her mom told her she could say anytime, anytime that this whole crazy life wasn't fun anymore. Three simple words and her new life begins. For the hottest girl on the planet , life is about to change. Grace gets a make-under, a new identity, and a new life in a rugged little town on the edge of nowhere, population 813 (including one cute boy ; one very cute boy.)
Read On.
