    By: Frances O'Roark Dowell

    Eleven-year-old besties, Kate and Marylin, used to be able to talk to each other about anything and everything. But now it seems as though Marylin finds Kate a bit to babyish.

    Ella Enchanted

    By: Gail Carson Levine

    Ella is cursed. This is the classic story of Cinderella, except this version isn’t so classic. There are still the wicked stepsisters and there’s the fairy godmother and prince, but one major thing is added: Ella has been cursed to obey everyone’s orders. She has no choice. If she were told to jump off a bridge, she would have to do it. In order to get out from under this curse before she is killed by it, Ella must find her prince! But will she find him before time runs out?

    Sucks to be Me: The All-True Confessions of Mina Hamilton, Teen Vampire

    By: Kimberly Pauley

    Mina Hamilton is just like any other 16-year-old girl. She is faced with the decision to choose between staying a human and becoming a vampire like her parents. Hold up, that is sooo not what an average teenager’s life is like! Anyway, Mina goes to normal high school, but she also takes vampire classes. Double the school? That already sounds like torture! Add to it the fact that her parents are pressuring her to become a vampire and she has to deal with her crushes. Life can be tough for a normal girl, but it definitely seems like it’s tougher for this kind of chica.

The sequal to The Secret Languge of Girls is The Kind of Friends we Used to Be. Both are really good. So is Ella Enchnted, The Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants (you'll want to find a magical pair of pants afterward, no joke), Princess Diaries is cute (and i am undenibly in LOVE with the movie)
