All or Nothing (Coxwell Family) 7 reviews Claire Cross
Berkley Trade, 2007
Charming, witty and unpredictable
+ complete and satisfying + All or Nothing
I enjoy stories about people who make changes in their lives, what motivates those changes and how they do it. That is what this story is about. Zach makes the most changes and in unpredictable ways. I liked seeing the way that telling someone the blunt truth, even though it might hurt feelings, ...

Twilight (Twilight, Book 1) 2054 reviews Stephenie Meyer
Little, Brown Young Readers, 2005
