Spring Break Blog

For this blog, I will talk about the three books I read during spring break...

First Book ~ The Good Girl by Mary Kubica (361 pages)
This book is another thriller/crime book that I read fairly quickly. It is about a girl named Mia, and her kidnapper Colin living in an old cabin in Minnesota.  Colin was supposed to give her to his boss Dalmar, but he doesn't because he thinks they are going to kill her. He takes her to his family cabin and they hide there because Colin fears that Dalmar is going to find them. This book is written in three POVs. Mia's mom, Eve, before and after her return home. The detective assigned to Mia's case, Gabe, before and after her return home. And Colin, her kidnapper during their "hideout" in the cabin. This book has many plot twists that I really didn't see coming. I loved this book!!

Second Book ~ My Life Next Door by Huntley Fitzpatrick (394 pages)
This book is a contemporary teenage romance book that was really good. It had also had a strong family aspect to it too. It is about a girl named Sam, who had a very strict mother who is running for the state senator throughout the book. She falls for her neighbor Jase Garrett, to whom her mother despises. Her mother always told Sam to stay away from the Garretts, because they were a large, loud, happy family that might of left a few messes in their yard here or there, but Sam's mother hated them for it. Everything is going well for Jase and Sam but it all takes a sharp turn when her mother makes a huge mistake that might cost her the election. I don't want to spoil anything so read this book! The authors writing style was hilarious and I was laughing half the time!

Third Book ~ Fangirl by Rainbow Rowell (433 pages)
This book is about two twins, Cath and Wren (like Catherine haha) that go away to the same college. Cath wanted to room with Wren, but Wren kinda wanted to be by herself and make new friends. This left Cath in the dust, so she pretty much stays in her room and writes Simon Snow (this books version of Harry Potter) fanfiction. Her roommate reaches out to her and they start to become friends, so Cath is grateful for that. There is some romance in this book but at the beginning you really don't know who it is going to be with. This is the first Rainbow Rowell book that I have read and I plan to read many more!
1188 pages total. I read too much. Also I started The Duff I am really enjoying it!
