Three books you may have missed!





If you haven't heard of these three titles, you may want to prop up that rock and RuN to the library!








Violet on the Runway by Melissa Walker




Violet is transformed from awkward teenager to high-fashion diva almost overnight, when she is unexpectedly "discovered" and whisked away to the New York catwalks.








Spud by John van de Ruit




South Africa in 1990 might be foreign to American teens who have never heard of apartheid, but 13-year-old John Milton and the rowdy boys at boarding school make for an unforgettable cast of characters. Read the book, and discover the crude origins of John's nickname, Spud.











This is an intense novel about a boy, Clay, dealing with the death of a girl he liked. Before she committed suicide, Hannah Baker left a series of cassette tapes behind, explaining the events that led her to end her life.

By the way - I listened to Thirteen Reasons Why on CD, and it was AWESOME! I highly recommend.
