__Rating__ 4, the book tends to drag on and it over explains things. Besides that it is an amazing series.

__Discussions of Classmates Reading__
 * __Hollywood is Like High School With Money__ by Zoey Dean. This book was read by Brina Van De Pol. She wrote that it's about a girl trying to make it in the real world and make a great futures for herself. It sounds really good and sounds like other books I have read.
 * __House Rules__ by Jodi Picoult. This book was recommended by Jaslyn Clark. She wrote about the thrilling drama and made it sound really really really good.

__Wiki Reflections__ I think that wikis are a good tool and that they are very easy to use and access. You are able to access other people form other countries. I think that it;s super cool :)

__April 29, 2011.__ I've read several books by Christopher Pike. They are all in the series called __Thirst.__ They are about a 5000 year old girl who looks 19. She was turned into a vampire at age 19 by the devils son. She has been living life with different names. Her real name is Sita. She mainly goes by Alisa. In the first book she is being investigated by a private investigator. She ends up killing him and when she meets his son she believes that he is her husband reincarnated. Through out the first five books she is trying to keep her voe to Krishnia a.k.a. God. Her voe is that she isn't allowed to make anymore vampires. So through all the books she is killing the rest of the vampires. She ends up turning three men that she loves into vampires. All those men end up being killed. She also ends up pregnant and her daughter develops rapidly and I have reached the point in the book where her daughter is trying to kill her and this baby who is Krishina reincarnated.

__ April 18, 2011. Lock and Key__ by Sarah Dessen. I finished this book. Ruby decides that her life was bad before. Being with people who love her and care for her deeply has made her decide to try in school and try in life. Ruby ends up dating her neighbor, Nate. When Ruby realizes what happens to Nate at home they get in a huge fight and break up. In the end Ruby ends up being a good student and is there for Nate when he moves because the state decides Nate is in a bad family environment. I think this was a wonderful book. It has a good story and a good meaning behind it.



__ April 1, 2011. Lock and Key__ by Sarah Dessen. I have read about 50 more pages in this book. Ruby has described her life with her mother and now her new life with her sister. So far my favorite line would have to be when Ruby says, "Still, in a weird way, I was proud of myself. Like I'd finally proven that I didn't need her, either." It's my favorite because it shows how strong Ruby was and how strong she had to be.

__ March 24, 2011. Lock and Key__ by Sarah Dessen. I got this book from the Ericson Public Library. I decided to get this book because I like all the other books by Sarah Dessen. So far I've read that Ruby, the main character, had been taking care of herself since her mother has left her and doesn't care anymore.

__March 4, 2011__. __Wanted__ by Sara Shepard. Characters: Summary: The main plot of the book is four girls trying to live life with more drama then what they could ever have expected. With cheating boyfriends/girlfriends, competing for the number one spot in the senior class, a mothers sleezy boyfriend, and rumors going around school, the girls at Rosewood day have alot on there hands. Then Allison comes back from the dead. Or so they think.
 * Alison DiLaurentis was supposedly killed in the first book of the series. She is an antagonist. She ends up coming back under the identity of her twin sister Courtney. The girls find out that Alison is in fact Alison and not Courtney. When Alison returns she pretends to be changed but slowly the girls realize she is just as mean and bitter as before.
 * Hannah Marin was the queen bee when she went through a total transformation. When Courtney/Alison returns to Rosewood Hannah starts to lose her popularity. Even though Hannah desperately wants to be friends with Alison again she feels that there is something fishy going on when Hannah returns from her mental hospital.
 * Aria Montgomery is an unique, free spirited, girl. She just moved back to Rosewood after moving to Iceland. She moves back and instantly becomes more popular than what she expected. When Alison returns Aria fights hard to stay away from her but when Alison tries to steal Arias boyfriend she has to intervene.
 * Spencer Hastings was the number one ranked student at Rosewood Day. When Alison comes back Spencer discovers that Alison is actually Spencer's half sister. After telling her mom the her dad cheated on her the family splits up. Spencer is trying hard to fix what she did while trying tremendously hard to get to know Ali.
 * Emily Fields is a confused girl. She went from having a girlfriend to having a boyfriend in a week time period. When he first love Alison returns she is the first one to jump on board with believing everything Ali is doing is for the best.

Rating: I give this book a four. This book was a four because there was a lot of stuff to keep you hooked to the book. The only bad part was that there was so much stuff going on it would get confusing. The fact that each chapter was told by a different person out of the four main character was probably the worst part.

Extra Reading: I read Just Listen by Sara Dessen. It was about a teenage model who didn't want to model anymore. She finds peace through music. I also read Awakened by P.C. Cast and Kristen Cast. It is the newest book in the House of Night series. It's about a vampire fledging.

__February 10, 2011__. I am reading __Wanted__ by Sara Shepard. __Wanted__ is the last book in the Pretty Little Liars series. There are five main characters; Emily, Aria, Hannah, Spencer, and Alli. We found out in the other books that Emily is a bisexual, Aria had a relationship with her teacher, Hannah was belumic, and Spencer kissed her sisters boyfriend, and the main thing we found out was that Alli was supposed to be dead. The girls were being stalked by someone called A. In this book the girls find out Alli had a twin sister, Courtney, who was mentally unstable. The girls all befriend Courtney. Then Courtney tells the girls that she is actually Alli and the dead body they found was Courtney's. I think the best part of the book so far is finding out that Alli isn't dead. That was a major surprise. The worst part of the book so far is when Hannah's step-sister decides to take over Hannah's life. She tries to make Hannah t This is a link to another book review; http://jessicalawlor.com/2010/11/book-review-wanted-by-sara-shepard/.
