"I've read all of Alisa Valdes-Rodriguez's books, and I've loved them all. This is actually a YA novel, but I wanted to read it anyhow. I enjoyed this one too. It seems to be a slightly different style from her other books, but not in a bad way. Anyway, I think for people that like to read YA books, give this one a try!"

    " This is a good read, but more for young adults. Another one of my favorites. It is about a girl named Paski (it's her nickname) and her dad. She loves biking and lives in New Mexico. Her dad gets a job making his comic strip into a movie, so together they move to California. I won't give anything else away, but it is a really good book. "

    " This book was better than I expected it to be. I gave it two stars because I thought the ending was corny, however, keep in mind I am not in the target audience age group. "

    " One of my best unknown finds at BookExpo 2006 -- I saw very little critical press for this one, but I found it an absolute delight. Another book in the style of "Mean Girls", Valdes-Rodriguez writes spectacularly and her narrator is a funny, sharp, sympathetic girl. More people should read this one! "

    " Haters was an ok-book (one of those books you read to kill time lol). The fact that the characters were unrealistic and the plot was lackluster really ruined the book for me.....Like I said, if you have time on your hands I encourage you to read it..... "
