No particular order.
- Am I Normal Yet by Holly Bourne. I loved reading this book because of the trueness and realness the charecter conveys when Evie the man character speaks or just inner dialog in Evie's brain. Evie has a severe case of OCD and the book shows how bad OCD can over take someones life.
- Stargirl by Jerry Spinelli. The reason this book is on my top 11 is becuse of the greatness of the story, the magic between Stargirl and Leo. Stargirl is the type for personwho doesn't want to be labelled or a version of everyone else. She has a crappy time through school as she is so different and other kids just don't except that making her life hell.
- My Sister Jodie by Jacqueline Wilson. Sisters Jodie and Pearl have to leave thier comfortable lives and uproot too a boarding school in the middle of nowhere with thiere parents. Pearl is the timid shy girl and Jodie is the bull in the china shop, boisterous, loud proud girl. Jodie soon loses the plot when she never seems to get on with the people around her. This is my go to book when I need to read something over and over again.
- The Fault In Our Stars by John Green. So I'm sure most of you will understand whythis is on the list. I cried for so long watching the film and also reading the book. A teenage love story made so sad and magical all wrapped in one. It makes you feel honored to watch and read these precious, enchanting moments between two people.
- Gingersnaps by Cathy Cassidy. I loved the magicness that is entwined in each CC book.The book is about a young girl called Ginger who reforms from her old bullied self to a new and improved bully proof, stylish girl. Her tough demeanor falls apart when Ginger meets Sam a trilby wearing sax playing mystery.
- Beastly by Alex Finn. Adaptation of beauty and the beast. Kyle thinks he is invincible, he walks around his school like he owns it and thinks the pupil owe him something because of his local celebrity. His attitude towards people and life is terrible but the worst is yet to come when he publicly shames Kendra an outcast at school. She turns him ugly and his only chance for freedom is if a girl falls in love with him exactly the way he is.
- Wonder by R. J. Palacio. August has had a sort of deformed face since he was born unfortunately making him estranged with kids his age. His parents have kept him away from school but decide to let him go to a private school. This will change his view on life and people forever, having to accept the fact that he isn't like other kids and learning that kids can be cruel.
- American Sniper by Chris Kyle. This was an incredible and insightful read about life being in the SEAL's and having to cope with starting a family and being involved with tours to Iraq and other places fighting to survive. Kyle became one of the best Sniper Shots in American history. His pride and protection of America is simply incredible.
- Everything Everything by Nicola Yoon. Maddie is allergic to everything its as simple and as complicated as that, she can't go out for fear that she will be severely ill or even die. Maddie has excepted this fact and feels that with her mum and her nanny Carla she couldn't want anything more than a cure. Untill the next door neighbors move in with a complicated life and Olly who makes her question her life, bringing more meaning and care than she tjought she could get.
- Jayne Eyre by Charlotte Brontë. This book was the first book I learnt to read when I was eight so of course this book means a lot to me. Jane is such a strong spirited charecter, stubborn Jane's will shall not be bent. Jane being an orphan has to libe with her aunt who has horrible children that think Jane is wicked because of her temper and startlingly red hair.
- A Game of Thrones by George R. R Martin. I love how dark and twisted GOT is. The throne is the goal and everyone thinks they should sit on the Iorn Throne. The houses fall apart at the chance of claiming the iorn throne and heads will roll, wars will begin and two faced people will be out to stab you in the back.... Literally.
