1st to Die

James Patterson wrote this action packed first in the series book. This is a murder mystery, starring Lindsey Boxer. Someone is killing newlyweds in San Fransisco. The only jewelry he takes is the wedding rings. It is one tough case. When Lindsey finally thinks she gets the killer, it might be the wrong guy! Lindsey also gets a chance at love. How will it end? It is very suspenseful, and I couldn't put it down. This book it very good for people who like murder mysteries.

Pride and Prejudice

This is a very old classic, written by Jane Austen. It is about the 5 Bennet sisters. It is a little like Little Women. Mrs. Bennet wants to marry off her daughters, but she only wants them to marry rich gentlemen. This story shares laughs, and tears, joys, and heart breaks. It is longer, and a harder book, but it is very good once you get into it. If you like the book you might like the movie. I found it almost exactly like the book! I did like the book better, just because I like reading better than watching movies. I think that this book, like Little Women, is a very good book for mothers and daughters.

Eclipse

Eclipse is the third in a very good series Twilight, and is written by Stephenie Meyer. With Edward back, and graduation on the way Bella is almost happy. But Edward has told Bella she is not allowed to see Jacob anymore. He said it is too dangerous. Bella sneaks out anyway, and becomes friends again with Jacob. Then, a large group of Vampires is coming to fight with the Cullens. Bella realizes it is her they want, not the Cullens. That makes the Cullens fight harder. Then an old enemy, Victoria, shows up, seeking revenge for killing her boyfriend. What will happen? Find out by reading this very good book. It was hard to put down when my mom needed help!

New Moon

This book, the second in the series called Twilight, was written by Stephenie Meyer. Edward leaves Bella, thinking it is the best for her safety. Bella is heartbroken. She turns to Jacob Black, a family friend. Jacob slowly manages to patch her up, but after a while, he turns away, and weird things happen to him. Once Bella confronts him about it, he becomes nicer to her again. Then Alice, Edward's sister, sees that Edward is going to try to kill himself. Bella must go to Italy and try to stop him. This was also a very good book, and if you liked Twilight, you should like this.

Twilight

Stephenie Meyer wrote this very good book. Bella Swan moves to Forks, to live with her dad. While in school she meets the beautiful Edward Cullen. Something is very strange about this beautiful guy. Bella figures it out, and Edward finally softens. When things are just about right, someone fights Edward's family. The Cullen family win. But one of that kind want their revenge. He tricks Bella into meeting her alone. To find out what happens, you will have to read this book, the first to a series of four. I really enjoyed it, and I think it is an average level. It may be long, but it is easy reading.
