Chasing Brooklyn

Theres no words to describe how epic, sexy, sweet, and suspenseful this book is. Thw two main characters are going through a tough time more than many teens have today. Nico keeps getting visted by is DEAD brother, and Brooklyn is getting haunted by an old DEAD friend Gabe. Emotions crash to the surface and both characters keep wondering Why? No one knows whats going on but they feel like they need to do something, thats why I became attracted to the protagonist Nico. Nico has a brave sole even though he has no idea what his brother means he still attempts to try to help him. I see that he is trying to do little things to help Brooklyn, but what can he do if Lucca isnt giving him answers. I continue to question another one of the protagonist Brooklyn. If she see's Nico reaching out to her why wont she just tell him, he cant do anything more. I understand since Lucca's been her first love its hard, but we all have to move on at some poin in life no matter how much it hurts. "Sometimes we need to let go in order to fly." The question that I am really focused is on is why must Gabe hunt Brooklyn, what could she have done for him to haunt her? They had a strong bond until they began to drift away slowly, but whats a friendship without barriers that come in the way. I hope that what ever the reason is its good, I know Brooklyn wish she could talk to someone about this. Now that hes gone ..... she has no one and I know it pains Lucca on the inside to know that Brookyn is going through this .

Seventeenth Summer

I just began reading this book and it has caught my attention already. The main characters name is Angie and she isnt your typical dating girl. Shes not intrested in going on dates and the stuff high schoolers do. Until she seen the boy of her dreams in the drug store late one night. This is the summer when everything has happend to Angie, love and who knows what will come next. All i know is that this will be the summer to remember for her.I fell in love with the main character because she's different then most girls you read about in books. She takes things easy. "He looked over at me, smiled, and then sat down again." This was the moment when she first seen Jack and you could tell that it was magic. I felt that after that moment she couldnt help but think about him, .... it was like he captured a spell on her. After so many questions were running thrugh my  mind, how will they start dating? Will thet ever date? So far in the book you dont get to hear about Jack but i can tell that he must be amazing if it was so easy  to fall for him. The main thing i hope doesnt happend is, Jack breaking Angie's heart. I cant imagine what she would go through dealing with all that stress, heart ache. They are already soon to be out of highschool so getting into a argument about College is bond to happen. I cant wait to get into the book so i  can read more and really see what the protagonist are like
