I Hope This Doesn't Find You

I Hope This Doesn't Find You by Ann Liang Genre: Real Life Reviewed by Julia W., 12th Grade Rating: 9/10 Sadie attends Woodvale Academy, one of the top high schools in the country. She’s set to be the valedictorian of her class, the MVP on every sports team she’s on, and she helps out at her local library and in her community. She’s basically perfect. Not to mention she’s also the school captain. Co-captain with Julius that is. In order to retain this level of perfectness, any frustration Sadie feels gets channeled into an email draft.

One day all of Sadie’s emails somehow get sent out and overnight the entire school knows what Sadie actually thinks of them. She’s not looking so p...

Optimists Die First

Optimists Die First by Susin Nielsen Genre: Realistic Fiction Reviewed by Evan S., 10th Grade Rating: 8/10 This novel is one that just from a glance, wouldn't look like my kind of book.

Petula's life is full of constant worry and anxiety. Petula grows her fear off of a tragic accident from her youth, where a button choked her baby sister to death. Worst of all, she completely blames herself for the accident and refuses to move on.

When she got the news her husband was being sent to war she was crushed. When youngest sister Isabelle Rossignol first found out about the war, she was overcome with a feeling of helplessness. She knew that she needed to help France in this time when everyone was living in fear. If things could not get worse for the family, a Nazi soldier forcibly moved into their house. Problems arise when Viann's main focus is to take care of her family, while Isabelle is inviting trouble into her life trying to stop the Nazi party. As s...
