Book Review: Not Like Other Girls

Not Like Other Girlsby Meredith AdamoRATING: Jo is not like other girls. At least, she’s told that she’s not and she believes it.

Book Review: Found

Foundby Gabby SkeldonRATING: This was a fun, newly discovered author to me. First things first, the cover: TO DIE FOR. I love it.
