Percy Jackson and the Olympians Series by Rick Riordan
The series Percy Jackson and the Olympians is one of the best book series in my opinion. It is written by Rick Riordan and was also made into a movie. The first book in the series, The Lightning Thief, is really amazing and had made me really interested in Greek mythologies. It is a really good book and if you are interested in Greek myths, the action genre, with a mix of comedy, then you will LOVE this book series.

Chibi Vampire - Book Review
Chibi Vampire by Yuna Kagesaki
Ever since The Twilight Saga had hit the shelves it seems like nobody can get enough of vampires. Chibi Vampire is manga series by Yuna Kagesaki. It tells the story of Karin Maaka, a 16 year old highschool girl who is an extraordinary vampire. Like in most vampire stories, vampires can't walk on broad daylight, hate garlics, and suck blood. Karin Maaka is a different story; instead of drinking blood and sucking it out of her victims, she produces excess blood and injects it to her victims. Not only is she the opposite of her family that are vampires, she can walk during the day, hates the dark, and can't even control a bat. She's basically a human. Of course she feels alone and sad since she can't have a normal relationship with humans except for her one best friend and her haven't yet awakened vampire sister. Then next thing she knew a new guy named Kenta Usui (he's human) transferred to her school. With Kenta, Karin learns how to fall in love, get hurt, and understand her true self.

Duchessina - Book Review by Chin Chin
Duchessina by Carolyn Meyer
The book Duchessina is a really interesting fiction book based on historical events. It is about a young woman named Caterina De' Medici or "Duchessina" and all the horrible events she has to go through just because she is a Medici. The book isn't like the typical cliche' happy endings like in most stories. It has its own very unexpected twist in the end. It has its own way of warming your heart at the same time makes you wonder "Why the heck did that happen in the end!" Though it is rather interesting and I recommend it for people who like these kind of things.

Goth Girl Rising - Book Review by Chin Chin
Goth Girl Rising by Barry Lyga
The book Goth Girl Rising by Barry Lyga is a book I would recommend for teens who have troubles because of a dead parent or the whole "emo/goth" thing. It's really interesting and is a sequel to the book The Astonishing Adventures of Fanboy and Goth Girl, which is also by Barry Lyga. ( I would recommend this book too.) This book is about Kyra Sellars aka Goth Girl opinions on things after she was sent to a mental institute (like Brentwood) and how much she wanted to take revenge on Fanboy for forgetting her while she was gone for six months. Turned out that he really was trying to communicate with her during the summer but Kyra's dad deleted all the emails. This is a really good book and has a lot of twists and turns. So if you're into the whole Goth Girl taking revenge on a comic fanatic then you'd really love this book!
