Review:
Lies We Tell Ourselves is a brutally frank look at one of the most racially charged moments in the history of the United States. Sarah Dunbar is a teenager, and she’s one of the first black students to attend a traditionally white school in the south. Sarah is a bright girl with a promising academic future – until her parents enroll her Jefferson High School. She faces opposition every day, and the honor student’s schedule is full of remedial classes, because the school administrators don’t want these new, unwanted students holding back the rest of the class. The white students don’t want her there, their parents don’t want her there, and even the faculty looks the other way as she is tormented daily.
After reading this, all I can say is “Wow.” I don’t know where Sarah found the strength to endure the daily abuses she suffered at the hands of her white classmates. To say that she was constantly bullied understates her situation. She was taunted, called names, spit on, tripped, pelted with spitballs – the list goes on. There was no one at school for her to ask for assistance because the teachers practiced selective blindness when it was happening. Before even starting at Jefferson, Sarah and the small group of teens who were selected to attend with her were given training and strict instructions to never talk back, to always be polite, and to never fight back. I don’t think I could have done it. I know I wouldn’t have lasted more than a day or two if I had been in Sarah’s shoes.
Linda is one of Sarah’s white classmates. Her father is the editor for the local newspaper, and he is very outspoken in his thoughts on integration. He is totally against it and he’s still fighting it, tooth and nail, even after the court order paving the way for Sarah to attend the former all white school. Linda’s relationship with her father is contentious, but what she wants most in the world is his approval. Even a shred of attention is uplifting. To gain his approval, she parrots his views on the colored interlopers at her school, but as she gets to know Sarah, against her will, she starts to question her own poisonous views.
I enjoyed getting to know the girls so much. The story is told in alternating POV, and Sarah’s narrative made it difficult to put the book down. It took a while for me to warm up to Linda, because of the things she said and did. Every now and again she would do the right thing, then, in the next breath, she would do something to negate her selfless acts. Argh! She made me so frustrated!
I don’t want to give away too much of the plot. Lies We Tell Ourselves is a thought-provoking read that will make you angry, sad, and ultimately, hopeful. I loved the ending, and it left me reassured that both Sarah and Linda would find their place in the world, and they would meet each new challenge with courage and strength.
Grade: A

From Amazon:
In 1959 Virginia, the lives of two girls on opposite sides of the battle for civil rights will be changed forever.
Sarah Dunbar is one of the first black students to attend the previously all-white Jefferson High School. An honors student at her old school, she is put into remedial classes, spit on and tormented daily.
Linda Hairston is the daughter of one of the town’s most vocal opponents of school integration. She has been taught all her life that the races should be kept “separate but equal.”
Forced to work together on a school project, Sarah and Linda must confront harsh truths about race, power and how they really feel about one another.
Boldly realistic and emotionally compelling, Lies We Tell Ourselves is a brave and stunning novel about finding truth amid the lies, and finding your voice even when others are determined to silence it.

Title: Belonging Author: Karen Ann Hopkins |
May Contain Spoilers
From Amazon:
I left everything I knew behind.
But it was worth it. He was worth it.
No one thought an ordinary girl like me would last two minutes living with the Amish, not even me. There are a lot more rules and a lot less freedom, and I miss my family and the life I once had. Worst of all, Noah and I aren’t even allowed to see each other. Not until I’ve proven myself.
If I can find a way to make it work, we’ll be NOAH & ROSE together forever.
But not everybody believes this is where I belong
Review:
Belonging picks up right where Temptation left off. Rose has just been introduced to her new Amish guardians, the Hershbergers, and she’s immediately confronted by the community elders. They are an intimidating group of old men, and they warn that they will not tolerate any poor behavior from Rose. If she’s going to court Noah, she has to work hard and prove herself to them. Both Noah and Rose are disappointed that Rose will have a ramping up period before she’s allowed to join the church. Until she’s an official member of the community and officially courting Noah, they aren’t allowed to be together.
This is a soap opera on an epic scale. Rose is so in love with Noah that she’s willing to give up her family to be with him, though she’s less than happy at the thought of being a drudge for the rest of her life. She definitely irritated me, because even as she’s pretending to go along with her new way of life, she’s convinced herself that somehow she will coax Noah into leaving the Amish and becoming English for her. I realize that she is young, and that she’s gotten everything she’s wanted to this point in her life, but I really wanted to shake her every time she thought about Noah abandoning his family for her. He already explained that he is content with his life, that he enjoys the community, and that he is counting on the assistance of his family and friends to start his adult life with his new wife. He made perfect sense to me, and his behavior remained comfortingly steady.
After Rose’s father discovers that she’s taken to the Amish way of life a little too well, he and Sam plot to kidnap her and send her off to live with her aunt in Cincinnati. They both think that once she’s back in her old life, with her old friends, that she will forget about Noah. To ensure that their plan is a success, they meddle even more, and turn Noah against her. And this is where I actually, finally, started to like Rose. She didn’t forget about Noah, and she began to look back on her time with the Amish with fondness. She made friends with them, life was a little more laid back, and there was her life with Noah to look forward to. Sure, doing the laundry by hand sucks, and so did the constant cleaning and unending chores, but the community, for the most part, had been welcoming and encouraging of her efforts to belong with them.
As her time apart from Noah stretched on, Hunter resurfaced in her life. I’ll be honest and say that love triangles aren’t my favorite trope. Love triangles are probably one of the major reasons that I don’t read as much YA as I once did. I just don’t find them that compelling. If the heroine is that confused about who she wants to be with, she’s not ready to be with anyone yet. Just hang out with both of them, because there is a lack of commitment for either guy and avoid all of the drama. Since Rose thinks that Noah hates her, she doesn’t have a reason to not hang out with Hunter, and when he tells her how much he cares for her, she thinks that they might have a future together. Good thing that Sam suddenly suffered from a guilty conscience, thanks to Rose’s friend Summer, and he comes clean to Noah about how he interfered in their relationship. Hunter is a great guy and all, but compared to Noah, he’s boring and shallow, and a huge pushover whenever Rose so much as smiled at him.
I enjoyed Belonging better than Temptation, though I had the same reservations about Rose. The novel is character driven, and we have the addition of Sam’s POV this time around. He is just as over indulged and spoiled as Rose; probably more so, as he’s made himself a reputation of loving and leaving countless high school girls and their broken hearts in his wake. Even though I didn’t necessarily like him, his POV still made for engaging reading. The drama, drama, drama at times is overwhelming, but I couldn’t put my Kindle down. Every emotion and setback is huge and over the top, and made me want to see how Rose, Noah, and Sam would handle these conflicts tossed at them throughout the book. The ending is a huge cliffhanger, and made me want Forever, the next book in series, RIGHT NOW! I am so curious to see how everything plays out. Will Rose leave her modern life behind, and embrace a life with Noah,in his Amish community? I would have a really hard time giving up my electric gadgets, so I’m dying to see how this series ends.
Grade: B

Cover Shot! is a regular feature here at the Café. I love discovering new covers, and when I find them, I like to share. More than anything else, I am consumed with the mystery that each new discovery represents. There is an allure to a beautiful cover. Will the story contained under the pages live up to promise of the gorgeous cover art?
This cover gets a big old YUM! I love this cover! And Beth is such a flawed character, so Dare You To should be all about the angst. What do you think of this cover? Did you read Pushing the Limits?? Did you like it?
"I dare you…"
If anyone knew the truth about Beth Risk’s home life, they’d send her mother to jail and seventeen-year-old Beth who knows where. So she protects her mom at all costs. Until the day her uncle swoops in and forces Beth to choose between her mom’s freedom and her own happiness. That’s how Beth finds herself living with an aunt who doesn’t want her and going to a school that doesn’t understand her. At all. Except for the one guy who shouldn’t get her, but does….
Ryan Stone is the town golden boy, a popular baseball star jock-with secrets he can’t tell anyone. Not even the friends he shares everything with, including the constant dares to do crazy things. The craziest? Asking out the Skater girl who couldn’t be less interested in him.
But what begins as a dare becomes an intense attraction neither Ryan nor Beth expected. Suddenly, the boy with the flawless image risks his dreams-and his life-for the girl he loves, and the girl who won’t let anyone get too close is daring herself to want it all….

I am giving away an ARC of Julie Kagawa’s Immortal Rules.
"In a future world, vampires reign. Humans are blood cattle. And one girl will search for the key to save humanity."Allison Sekemoto survives in the Fringe, the outermost circle of a vampire city. By day, she and her crew scavenge for food. By night, any one of them could be eaten. Some days, all that drives Allie is her hatred of "them." The vampires who keep humans as blood cattle. Until the night Allie herself is attacked–and given the ultimate choice. Die…or become one of the monsters. Faced with her own mortality, Allie becomes what she despises most. To survive, she must learn the rules of being immortal, including the most important: go long enough without human blood, and you will go mad. Then Allie is forced to flee into the unknown, outside her city walls. There she joins a ragged band of humans who are seeking a legend–a possible cure to the disease that killed off most of humankind and created the rabids, the mindless creatures who threaten humans and vampires alike. But it isn’t easy to pass for human. Especially not around Zeke, who might see past the monster inside her. And Allie soon must decide what–and who–is worth dying for

She senses when someone near her is about to die. And when that happens, a force beyond her control compels her to scream bloody murder. Literally.
Kaylee just wants to enjoy having caught the attention of the hottest guy in school. But a normal date is hard to come by when Nash seems to know more about her need to scream than she does. And when classmates start dropping dead for no apparent reason, only Kaylee knows who'll be next…
I don't know if you're like me, but when I see a book series that has four or more books in it, and I haven't already started the series, I'm instantly turned off. It's really hard to start a new series knowing that it could just go on indefinitely, and you may not even like the first one, but you'll still want to know where it ends.....is anyone with me? However, I've been trying to make myself look into some of the series books that have been out awhile, because obviously a lot of people like them. So, when Harlequin Teen sent me the Soul Screamers series, I decided to take the plunge!

Trella is a scrub. Being a scrub means living in the overcrowded lower levels, working ten hour shifts to keep Inside clean, never speaking to any Uppers, not knowing your real family, and being constantly monitored by the Pop Cops (Population Control).
Ok, here's the deal...I didn't really like this book that much, but I did want to show you the review so that you'd trust me when I told you how much I like the others Harlequin titles. And just because it's not my kind of book, doesn't mean other people won't love it. I found this positive review on another blog, so you can read her take on it for another view!

Okay, stop.
I know what you're all thinking. OMG, A BOOK BASED OFF A TELEVISION SERIES?
Again?
Greek: Double Date, however, is worth reading. (not to mention the show is worth watching!)
Two dates—same night!
Major oops. When Casey Cartwright's brother begs her to be nerdy Dale Kettlewell's date to the sure-to-be-boring Honors Engineering Awards, Casey says yes. Even though Dale is totally not her type…and might have a crush on her. Ugh. But it's a nice thing to do, and Casey's always been the "nice" girl. But now, that night conflicts with the biggest event of the semester, the All-Greek formal. Casey already has a date lined up: hot transfer student Rob Howell.
What to do? What Casey does may surprise even herself….
Casey is a great heroine and her boy problems will have readers sympathizing immediately. Rusty, her brother, is just as quirky. Not to mention, the secondary characters like Cappie, Rebbecca, and Ashleigh help brighten up the book with their various personality types.
This is a great way readers to ease into the television series that is now into it's third season. Each character has their own little quirks and all are likeable in their own way. The dialogue is fresh and snappy, and this book has a lot of laugh-inducing lines that have you chuckling out loud. Especially the scenes with Ashleigh and Casey.
A few funny moments:
- When Rebecca and Casey are hiding from a mouse for a long time in the kitchen. "Do you know how long we've been up here? I am this close to eating the box of salad croutons."
- When Casey is talking to Ashleigh about finding a date, Ashleigh suggests asking her brother for advice. Casey responds with: "Please me ask my brother to date, Stars would have to collide in some universe-breaking fashion for that to happen." Ashleigh goes on to suggest hunting through social networking sites like Twitter and Facebook.
- When Dale, Cappie and Rusty are talking about Casey. "She'd dump him in an instant if you would commit. So do us a favor - put up or shut up - and no - this is not my anti-allergins talking!"
Check out this book if you want some fun light reading or if you want to see what the Greek show is all about. Also, the second book, Greek: Best Frenemies is coming out in Oct.

If you keep your expectations in check, My Soul to Take, the first novel in Rachel Vincent’s Soul Screamers series and the new Harlequin Teen imprint, is a fun, enjoyable paranormal mystery.
After sneaking into a club with her best friend, Kaylee Cavanaugh’s attention is diverted by a young woman. She’s pretty, yes, but there’s something about her that leaves Kaylee full of dread and with a terrifying urge to scream. Kaylee is “absolutely certain that something was not right with that girl.” But, apart from perhaps imbibing a few too many drinks, nothing appears to be wrong with the girl. Fortunately for Kaylee, the need to scream abates without any sound escaping her, and, maybe best of all, without scaring off Nash Hudson, one of the hottest guys in school, whom she ran into at the club.
The next morning, however, Kaylee learns that the girl she saw died later that night. And a few days later, the same thing happens again. Kaylee has no idea what’s wrong with her, but Nash seems to know more than he should. Nash may be able to provide some of the answers Kaylee is looking for, but not all of them. Such as, why are seemingly healthy girls suddenly dying from unknown causes throughout the city?
As a protagonist, Kaylee is, well, similar to a lot of the main characters in YA urban/paranormal fantasies. Really, there isn’t much that distinguishes her from them. (You know, apart from the, er, thing that sometimes makes her want to scream.) Likewise, most of the secondary characters are not fleshed out, but come across as stock characters. And it sometimes seems as if Vincent decided to kill two birds with one stone with Nash’s character by having him fulfill two roles, Provider of Explanatory Dialogue and The Love Interest. The romance between Kaylee and Nash is perfunctory, and I actually think the story could have worked just as well without it — meaning not without Nash, but without the Kaylee-Nash romance — but I’m hoping that this, as well as the development of some of the other secondary characters, will improve in the next two books.
What elevates My Soul to Take are the novelty of its mythology and the suspense angle. While the setting is pretty generic, I very much enjoyed Vincent’s re-imagining of folklore. I found this aspect of the worldbuilding clever and well done. Vincent also builds tension into the story efficiently and organically, and the mystery is actually suspenseful, leaving readers guessing. It’s not filler or merely an excuse for Kaylee and Nash to spend time together. But with this said, I’m still not invested in their romantic relationship thus far.
My Soul to Take will be published on July 28. The second book in the series, My Soul to Save, is scheduled for January 2010, and book three, My Soul to Keep, for June 2010. A free prequel is available at the Harlequin Teen site and the eHarlequin store.
