13 Little Blue Envelopes

Over the past few weeks including the trip I read 13 Little Blue Envelopes written by Maureen Johnson. This book is about a girl named Virginia who is currently in the summer before she begins her senior year of high school. After receiving 13 letters from her deceased aunt she goes on a journey through Europe following a specific set of rules her aunt left for her. This book was okay. The plot was interesting and there was a something happening, but the quality of writing was not the best and there was certain moments where the book became boring and pretty hard to get through. Although the characters were really well developed as well as the setting. Overall there were ups and downs of this book I think that depending on the person and the style of writing they like someone could really enjoy this book.

This Lullaby

This Lullaby written by Sarah Dessen is about a girl named Remy has set rules for herself about dating; Never get too serious, never break your heart, and never date a musician.But then Remy meets a new guy named Dexter, a musician that causes her to break all of her rules. This book was good but also a little weird. The characters were well developed, but the quality of writing is not the highest.
