I am a very bad Harry Potter Fan!!! I have owned the 5,6,and 7 book since they have come and I have not yet read the 6 and 7 one. I started Harry Potter and The Half Blood Prince but I think I got sidetracked and started reading Sisterhood of The Traveling Pants Series. Which I know I got the month the 4 one came out which was the same time I was like half way through the 6 book.
I am now gonna have to read the 6 book before I see the movie but I don't know when I have time since I have so many book right now to read.

Touch By Francine Prose
What really happened at the back of the bus? Did they, or didn't they? Did she, or didn't she? Something happened to fourteen-year-old Maisie Willard—something involving her three friends, all boys. But their stories don't match, and the rumors spin out of control. Then other people get involved . . . the school, the parents, the lawyers. The incident at the back of the bus becomes the center of Maisie's life and the talk of the school, and, horribly, it becomes news. With just a few words and a touch, the kids and their community are changed forever. From nationally acclaimed author Francine Prose comes an unforgettable story about the difficulties of telling the truth, the consequences of lying, and the most dangerous twist of all—the possibility that you yourself will come to believe something that you know isn't true
This book kept me constantly confused. You were always wondering what just happened and everything seemed not in a specific order. Sometimes instead of going foward it went back and explained weird things. I thought Maisie was really whiney. She was always complaing by her stepmom and for the short time at her mom's her stepdad. She was also a really weird main character, like the story was oddly narrated. Oh she was also complaining about her therapy and lawyer she was always constantly naggging about how she doesn't want to go there but when she usually gets there she acts normal and sounds like she wants be there. Her three best friends who are guys sounded wierd and I think its highly unlikely that your three best friends are going to ask to touch your boobs. I know she was gone for a year and she all of a sudden grew boobs but I don't think they will ask to touch your boobs. So I know this sounds like a bad review but the book was okay not the best but not horrible.

In My Mailbox (9)
These are the books this week that I bought. I didn't receive any in the mail.
The Market by J.M. Steele
I had never heard of this before and found it on the new table they had at the store.
This is not the cover I have but my cover was super hard to find and the one I found it was super small and blurry.
High school senior Kate Winthrop is about to find out just how much she's worth.
After stumbling across the Millbank Social Stock Market, Kate is horrified to discover that out of the 140 girls in her class, she's ranked a bleak 71. Sure, she's not drop-dead gorgeous, and her "fashion" choices leave a bit to be desired...but 71?! Determined not to accept her fate as a "junk bond," she and her best friends quickly set out to make her the fastest rising stock on the Market.
Armed with a sexy new haircut and killer wardrobe, Kate puts her plan into effect -- and the analysts take note. In a matter of weeks, her stock value soars, and "Blue Chip" status is within reach. But what begins as a fun social experiment quickly turns into an obsession, one that threatens to ruin her reputation, friendships, and a chance at first love. Will Kate survive the highs and lows of the Market, or will her security crash and burn?
Blue Moon by Alyson Noel
I begged my dad to go to Barnes and Noble on its release day to get this. I am so excited to read this. I loved Evermore and can't wait to find out what happens next.
Just as Ever is learning everything she can about her new abilities as an immortal, initiated into the dark, seductive world by her beloved Damen, something terrible is happening to him. As Ever’s powers are increasing, Damen’s are fading—stricken by a mysterious illness that threatens his memory, his identity, his life. Desperate to save him, Ever travels to the mystical dimension of Summerland, uncovering not only the secrets of Damen’s past—the brutal, tortured history he hoped to keep hidden—but also an ancient text revealing the workings of time. With the approaching blue moon heralding her only window for travel, Ever is forced to decide between turning back the clock and saving her family from the accident that claimed them—or staying in the present and saving Damen, who grows weaker each day...
I am really excited to read both of these. They both look really good.

Book I Want (1)
I will post this whenever I find a lot of book I want.

Perfect Mistake By Kate Brian I hate her sweater but I love the series
Suspicion By Kate Brain I love this series and can't wait to find out what happens next. I also don't like this cover the girl in the middle has huge lips I think.
Pretty In Pink by Rachel Maude I liked this series. Yet Again I hate the cover. The girls just look really weird.
The Alphas by Lisi Harrison I know this is a bit young for me but I love the idea behind it. And a cover I like

This week it's Lock and Key by Sarah Dessen
Ruby is used to taking care of herself. But now she's living in a fancy new house with her sister Cora—a sister she hasn't seen in ten years—and her husband Jamie—creator of one of the most popular online networking sites. She's attending private school, wearing new clothes, and for the first time, feels the promise of a future that include college and her family. So why is she so wary? And what is Nate— the adorable and good-hearted boy next door— hiding behind his genial nature? As Ruby starts to see, there's a big difference between being given help, and being able to accept it. And sometimes, in order to save yourself, you've got to reach out to someone else.
I recently read this and loved this but i read the hardcover which I didn't really like the cover. But I liked the cover if you took off the dust jacket.
I love the colors on this. And the simplicty of the girl just danging the key. The cover does go really well this book. The one thing I don't like is the way her lags are together they just look really weird.
Do you like this cover?
From My Library (1)
I have decided now to post all the books I get from the library each week on a different post then In My Mailbox. Even though I think once I put library book on there. But this week I checked out a lot of books 15 to be exact. But I was gone earlier in the week and couldn't put them up and I didn't really go last week so my on hold books kept piling up.
If your wondering almost all the books I check out I placed on hold since my libray isn't the best at getting new books. But recently they got a new libarian who gets the kids and ya books. So there have been some new recenter books.
