Rachel Indihar added Through Wolf's Eyes (Wolf, Book 1) to her Bookshelf
Rachel said, "The first of a series, this adult fantasy book is well-written and very detailed, based around royal lineage, a wolf pack, a feral child, and a little bit of magic. There's a little bit of every genre in here, I believe!"

Rachel Indihar added One Last Wish, Three Novels:Mother, Let me Live/ Let Him Live/ Sixteen and Dying to her Bookshelf
Rachel said, "I actually recommend any teen book written by Lurlene McDaniel, who mainly writes books about teens who are either facing a terminal illness or watching a friend suffer with a terminal illness. The author's novels are incredibly inspirational, and althoug"

Rachel Indihar added The Atonement Child to her Bookshelf
Rachel said, "A classic in my mind, this Christian fictional novel is both inspirational and hard to put down. The writing is flowing and enticing, switching between different characters' viewpoints, and the controversial topic of abortion is handled with sensitivity."

Rachel Indihar added The Lovely Bones to her Bookshelf
Rachel said, "Although its plot about a young teen raped and murdered is depressing, the story itself (told in first-person narrative from the girl in Heaven) is fascinating and original. The story follows the girl's family on Earth as they try to cope with their loss"

Rachel said, "Another teen fantasy book about a girl who discovers she has strange magical powers and her father may hold the key to the mystery. I particularly enjoyed this novel because of the female protagonist, who is enjoyable and interesting to follow throughout"

Rachel Indihar added Daughter of the Forest (The Sevenwaters Trilogy, Book 1) to her Bookshelf
Rachel said, "This adult fantasy novel (the first of a trilogy) is probably the start of my favorite trilogy ever! The writing is superb; the author uses such detailed, flowing words that it could be poetry. The story is based off a classic folktale about brothers who"

Rachel Indihar added Blood and Chocolate to her Bookshelf
Rachel said, "I don't usually read vampire/werewolf fantasy books, but this one has become almost a classic in the fantasy teen genre. Its plot is generic (a werewolf girl falls in love with a human boy) but the story is anything but generic! The suspense will keep you"
Thursday, May 21, 2009 3:17:20 PM
Rachel Indihar added The Faerie Path to her Bookshelf
Rachel said, "I've read a lot of teen fantasy books, but this one (the first of a series) is fabulous because the protagonist (a normal teen who discovers she's a princess in a magical world of faeries) enters a world young girls dream of - castles, magic, extravagant"

Rachel Indihar added The Face on the Milk Carton to her Bookshelf

Rachel Indihar added Anne Frank and Me to her Bookshelf
Rachel said, "An excellent young adult fiction novel about a girl who goes back in time to the Holocaust and how it changes her life. I highly recommend this for both classroom and leisure reading! It's a great novel to get kids talking about the Holocaust and Anne Fra"

Rachel Indihar added The Kitchen Boy: A Novel of the Last Tsar to her Bookshelf
Rachel said, "This book got me fascinated with the story of the Romanovs and their tragic deaths. It's rather graphic by the end, but it's an excellent "insider view" of that fateful night. I recommend this if you enjoy both historical and suspense novels!"
