Pretty Little Liars #5: Wicked ReviewIan Thomas is in jail awaiting trial and the girls are able to relax and return to their lives. Or can they??? Just when the reader thought that the mystery of A has been solved at the end of UNBELIEVABLE, more bizarre events await the girls of Rosewood.
Hanna, Spencer, Emily, and Aria slowly try to settle back into their normal lives. Hanna is working through the trauma of learning that her best friend tried to kill her. She tries to live with her soon-to-be step-sister, Kate, and build up new friendships at school. Spencer is dealing with the cold shoulder she is receiving from her family. And through her grandmother's will, Spencer has just learned that she might be adopted. Aria has ventured to an art exhibit on her own, only to learn that the guy she was maybe flirting with was the artist himself. And finally Emily has met a boy. A boy that sends tingles through her.
The four girls still meet to discuss their grief and pull themselves together for the trial that is about to begin. But when Ian is released on bail to attend to his dying mother, the mysterious text messages start again.
Each girl receives messages that are more haunting than the ones before Ian was arrested. Now, the sender seems to be stalking them. The messages are sent at the most inopportune times, and some even come with photos attached; photos that were taken mere moments before the text arrived.
As the trial looms nearer, the girls are again thrust together trying to piece together the life that was Alison DiLaurentis. In WICKED, the reader gets a glimpse of the past and how the five girls initially became friends. The story hints at the Time Capsule and the flag pieces that bring the girls together.
In WICKED, Ms. Shepard brings the reader even deeper into the intrigue that is Rosewood. Told in alternating voices by each of the girls, the pieces of the puzzle slowly start to come together.
The wonderful thing about the PRETTY LITTLE LIARS series is that Ms. Shepard is able to lead the reader down one path, only to leave the ending wide open and wandering off in a different direction. With the shocking ending of WICKED, the reader will be waiting anxiously for the next installment, KILLER, due out in June 2009.

Pretty Little Liars #6: Killer ReviewKILLER is the sixth novel in the PRETTY LITTLE LIARS series.
The story starts off with the girls discovering what they believe to be the dead body of Ian Thomas, the accused killer of their childhood friend, Alison DiLaurentis. The girls hear a snap in the woods and quickly go for help. But by the time the cops show up to investigate, there is no evidence of a body. Nothing remains in the space where Ian was moments ago.
From this point on, the rest of the story is downhill for Spencer, Hanna, Aria, and Emily. Soon, the girls are branded as liars and can no longer go to the cops for help. Besides, Detective Wilden is acting suspicious. The girls uncover a connection between the detective, Alison's brother, Jason, and Ian Thomas from high school. How deep is the connection, and could there be a cover-up of some kind?
Throughout all of the murder drama and hunt for Ali's killer, the girls struggle to move on with their lives. But just as with the police, there are complications.
Spencer is positive she's adopted and is determined to find her birth mother. Only, once again, Spencer is taken advantage of. Emily has a new boyfriend, but his mother obviously hates her. Hanna is in a battle of wits with her step-sister, Kate. They are fighting over Aria's younger brother, Mike, and Hanna is determined to win his heart. And a chance encounter with Jason DiLaurentis rekindles the crush Aria had on him when she was younger.
KILLER is one of those books that is setting up the reader for what is to come in future installments. There is a lot of stuff going on throughout the book, yet it seems that none of it gets resolved by the time the reader gets to the final page. It will keep the reader anxious for the next chapter and frustrated that the next book is not available yet.
The final note from the ever mysterious "A" at the end of the novel sums the book up nicely... "The questions are probably killing you..." and "It's enough to make anyone crazy." Need I say more???

Do the Math #2: The Writing on the Wall ReviewMy students loved the return of Tess, her friends, middle school life AND the math in The Writing on the Wall. Wendy Lichtman's characters are realistic, likeable, and fun to be with. My students were intrigued by the mystery that unfolded and the mathematical patterns and formulas Tess used to solve it. I highly recommend this very appealing and readable book to students in grades 5-8.Do the Math #2: The Writing on the Wall Overview

Vicious Little Darlings ReviewI recently had the pleasure of reading Vicious Little Darlings. I'm an avid reader of sci-fi / fantasy. This being outside my usual genre, I was expecting to be disappointed but thought I would give the book a chance since my friend recommended it so enthusiastically.
VLD is a superbly written story about the friendship between 3 young women, told from the perspective of our protagonist, Sarah Weaver. Prosaically witty, cleverly woven, a study in contradiction. Sarah, Maddy, and Agnes are the most unlikely of friends. Despite the natural rifts arising from their respective socioeconomic stations in life, as fate would have it, our main characters soon find their lives inextricably woven together. All 3 possess a seemingly innocent demeanor, one that the audience would expect of any young college-going debutant preparing to enter society. But beneath their youthful exteriors lurk deeper currents of darkness: emotional scars, human brokenness, and loneliness - issues that one might be less surprised to discover upon the examination of an embittered soul at the end of life. Despite the sometimes disturbingly erratic and eerie behavior of the characters, the author still manages to make us fall in love with them. While Maddy may seem at first read to be the obvious antagonist, the author challenges us to look outside the proverbial box and to question if the true antagonist might more aptly be life itself - that these characters are really all tragic victims of the isolation inherent in our current social construct. While carrying the reader through the untamed terrain of the characters' internal experiences, the author skillfully balances the rawness with notes of beauty and wry humor. The whole effect is exhilarating, experientially bringing the reader into the eye while the storm rages all around. As the story climaxes, it leaves the reader with a sense of breathlessness and hopeful calm. The simple conclusion is artfully subtle, gently urging readers to continue pondering the lives to which they just bore silent witness.
VLD is an impressive and imaginative debut for Katherine Easer, one that highlights her skill and talent as an author with great promise. The book is a page-turner that will entertain and satisfy you. I look forward to her future works!Vicious Little Darlings Overview

Creep ReviewI was so lucky to get my hands on this advanced reading copy. And I absolutely LOVED this book.
This psychological thriller is about a professor, Sheila Tao, who is a sex addict, and she has an affair with one of her HOT students right before her boyfriend pops the question. When she tries to dump the student, things turn ugly--because he isn't who she thought she was. He is...well, the bad guy (as in crazy bad). I don't want to give more away, but I thought it was bright and hooking and awesome.
It also has incredible plot twists and the characters are amazingly fleshed out. I usually don't read adult thrillers, but when I do, I normally find that I don't really care what happens to the persons, since most of them were more about the plot than the characters. But in CREEP I really cared about everyone, and when I wasn't reading, I was wondering what would happen to the protagonist--and to her boyfriend. Hell, even the bad guy had me wondering about what he'd do next.
I HIGHLY recommend it!Creep Overview
