The lonely hearts club by Elizabeth Eulberg

Penny Lane, named after the Beatles song, is fed up with all the drama boys bring and all the stupid things girls do for them.  After one final straw she decides to form a group at school called "The lonely hearts club" where the objection is to  stop dating boys all together (until highschool is over).  Seriously.  But as more and more people join the club...she has more of an urge to leave it.

Reccommended by Stephenie Meyer, Elizabeth Eulberg has written a book I think every teenage girl who is dating should read.  It really makes you realize how much a boy can dominate a girl's life.  The book was simple and it was kind of the book version of the movie "Down with love".  I really can't say much about the book without spoiling it except that its a great eye opener.

So you should read this book.  This book definetly deserves the Moody seal of approval because once you do you'll realize that being in the "Lonely hearts club" is an honour!

Skeleton Creek by Patrick Carman

Ryan McRay and Sarah Fincher are trying to get to the bottom of the strange things that are happening in Skeleton Creek.  But a wierd accident that causes Ryan to be houseband and forbidden to see Sarah makes things that much harder.  So their investigation is split in two:  Ryan writes down everything that happens in his journal and Sarah records everything she notices with her video camera.  She then e-mails a password to Ryan, where he enters it at Sarahfincher.com to watch the video.

The whole video concept is pretty genius, I must say.  Links and codes are given throughout the book to the reader to watch and Ryan's part is basically a journal.  It makes the book funner to read, and a bit more realistic.  Except for the acting in the videos (once you get to the last video of the book you'll understand...especially that hug) and sometimes, while Sarah talks you just want to yell at the screen and say "SPIT IT OUT WOMAN!  SPIT IT OUT!".  But other than that the book was fantastic.  I also suggest you buy both books at the same time because there is a major cliffhanger at the end of book 1.

So the book is pretty genius and its a fun little mystery than is almost impossible to solve.  You'd think reading about Ryan's day to day life as he just sits there in his room would be completely boring but the author really made it fun to read.

Does this book have the Moody seal of approval?  Heck yah, because Skeleton Creek's mystery is one you should definetly solve.

First post of 2010.

So I just wanted to let anyone who reads this blog and was wondering why I haven't updated in a while that no, I have not died.

It's just school.

I'vebeen overwhelmed with school work and BOOM exams are starting in 2 days, so I'm kinda stressed.  Anyways, just a quick update (and a way for me to avoid my studying).  Once exams are over I'll be updating the blog and posting all the reviews down there.  I've practically read every book in the Coming Soon section so once I have the time my updates will come like vomit!  :D
