I've read so many of those girly type books about love and drama. Sarah Dessen is awesome and Twilight was amazing, but I'm so tired of love and vampires! Do you have any suggestions of books that are futuristic or fantasy with a sci-fi twist? Or anything just NOT in the love/girly/vampire categories? Thank you!




Hey, Girl! Sorry for the “stock” message. We’re
psyched you’re here but since this is a super busy time, mods aren’t able to
answer personal advice or contest questions. We’re approving your comments now
so the girls can start offering feedback right away! If you still have
questions, please come back, we’re happy to help…or just let the other chicas
answer now! (They give awesome advice, trust us!) Love and thanks!
♥, Your Blog Patrol Babes

If you want a fast paced, thrilling, suspenseful book a good suggestion is The Hungers Games series. I read all three and they are EPIC!!!

Hey girl, please stop posting chain letters. We've decided to take them down from our site. Instead of chain letters try posting your thoughts or questions about different things on the site. Thanks! Smile
