My November Teenage Dreams books are The Boy Who Killed Grant Parker by Kat Spears and In Real Life by Jessica Love. This month I got two hardback books.
The Boy Who Killed Grant Parker by Kat Spears ($16.45) – This sounds like it could easily be a TV show. I love reading books that I can picture on my tv and this is one of those for sure. The bad boy new kid in town comes to school and something happens to make him the new Big Man on Campus. Of course it’s a mystery with some teenage angst tossed in. I’m really interested in this one being from a boys point of view. So many books are from girls points of view so this can be an interesting twist on it.
Luke Grayson’s life might as well be over when he’s sent to live with his Baptist pastor father in rural Tennessee after getting kicked out of his DC private school. His soulless stepmother is none too pleased to have him, and Luke’s bad boy status has done him no favors with his new principal or the local police chief. He’s also an easy target for Grant Parker, the local golden boy with a violent streak, who has the community of Ashland under his thumb and Luke directly in his crosshairs.
But things go topsy-turvy when, after a freak accident, Luke replaces Grant at the top of the social pyramid. This fish out of water has suddenly gone from social outcast to hero in a matter of twenty-four hours. For the students who have lived in fear of Grant all their lives, this is a welcome change. But Luke’s newfound fame comes with a price. Nobody knows the truth about what really happened to Grant Parker except for Luke, and the longer he keeps living the lie, the more like Grant he becomes.
Kat Spears returns with this explosive coming of age story that explores not only the labels put on us by society, but the labels we put on ourselves, and the work it takes to find out who we really are underneath all the lies.
In Real Life by Jessica Love.($12.91) – What happens in Vegas stays in Vegas! Right? Good girls going to break some rules with a roadtrip is s fun. You know when she tosses in Vegas it could get interesting. In the world of online dating it’s always an up in the air when you go to meet in person.
Hannah Cho and Nick Cooper have been best friends since 8th grade. They talk for hours on the phone, regularly shower each other with presents, and know everything there is to know about one another.
There’s just one problem: Hannah and Nick have never actually met.
Hannah has spent her entire life doing what she’s supposed to, but when her senior year spring break plans get ruined by a rule-breaker, she decides to break a rule or two herself. She impulsively decides to road trip to Las Vegas, her older sister and BFF in tow, to surprise Nick and finally declare her more-than-friend feelings for him.
Hannah’s surprise romantic gesture backfires when she gets to Vegas and finds out that Nick has been keeping some major secrets. Hannah knows the real Nick can’t be that different from the online Nick she knows and loves, but now she only has night in Sin City to figure out what her feelings for Nick really are, all while discovering how life can change when you break the rules every now and then.
I love how BookCase.Club introduces me to new authors each month and makes my reading choices for me. I get a bit overwhelmed at the book store with all the options and tend to just buy the same authors over and over. BookCase is an inexpensive box with two new books sent right to me. It takes all the wonder out of it for me and I love finding new series and authors to love.
