Scrambled Eggs at Midnight par Brad Barkley
I liked this very PG rated teenage romance.
This was a rather depressing book about a family's struggles after their mother is institutionalised with schizophrenia. Told in alternating chapter by the two sisters, Shana (15) and Chloe (14), the reader follows how the girls, their father and adopted little brother, deal with the situation they find themselves in.
While I quite enjoyed the story I never really developed a deep liking for either girl and I felt they could have been further developed. I also found their father irritating and, at times, the plot slow and boring. There is no happy ending, which didn't bother me, but it's certainly not going to leave anyone in tears. Overall, a fairly forgettable book.… (plus d'informations)

I thought the characters are poorly written and nothing like any teenagers I've ever met. Also, the book is based in the city I live in and Asheville isn't portrayed accurately. If you are going to base a book in an actual city there are things you can figure out with a little research and that just didn't happen.
This was a pretty cute book about two teens working at Disney World during a character strike. Luke and Ella are both struggling with something in their personal lives. Together, but not "together" they find the answer they are looking for in each other. The only problem is that Ella is dating Mark and Luke is dating Cassie. Sometimes Prince Charming and Cinderella aren't meant for each other. Sometimes there is someone better.
