How to Ruin Your Boyfriend's Reputation ReviewCamo is back in fashion for the summer, and Amy Nelson-Barak is ready to show off her style. Not in the states, however, but all the way in Israel.
After learning that her boyfriend, Avi, has to stay back for more training, Amy, along with her friends Miranda, Jessica, and the infamous Nathan, have all signed up for military boot camp that just so happens to be at the same base where Avi is currently training. SURPRISE!
Amy's plan is simple: go to boot camp, have the fun which the brochure advertises, and spend time with her Avi. But Amy should know that summers never turn out the way she expects.
Once there, Amy notices the lack of indoor plumbing, gourmet food, or ideal mattresses. It gets worse. They actually want her to train like how the real soldiers would! Even though the whole ordeal may not be Amy's cup of tea, she not only wants to make Avi proud, but she wants to prove her dad wrong. She vows to show him that she can survive without all of her necessities from back home - well, with the exception of make-up, hair straighteners, and designer sunglasses.
Already hating the environment, Amy is glad to finally see Avi, who just so happens to be the leader of her group. Little does she know that Avi has to keep their relationship professional, meaning they still won't have time to be alone together.
When things get bad, it has to get better... right? So what if Amy has to deal with bad meals and cold showers. The pretty girls there do not bother her either; she's the one that has Avi. Seems like the only thing that can bother Amy is a little secret that Avi has been keeping from her, that could just possibly tear them apart. Whoever said karma wasn't a big meanie?
Simone Elkeles makes each installment of this series better than the previous one. HOW TO RUIN YOUR BOYFRIEND'S REPUTATION is laugh-out-loud hilarious, all while Amy Nelson-Barak stays true to her character and true to her culture.
What I like best about this installment is that Simone Elkeles lets us into the minds and thoughts of soldiers and how they are proud to fight for their country and freedom. She delves into the misconceptions and beauty of Israel and lets us all see what a wonderful country it is. Amy Nelson-Barak is back, and this time she's a "warrior woman!"

Please Ignore Vera Dietz ReviewI'll keep this short.
I'm a middle-aged man who gave up on YA literature when he was a YA. Which was a long, long time ago.
But PLEASE IGNORE VERA DIETZ is the real deal. No glittery vampires. No baloney. Just real, live people with real, live problems. Like the ones I had when I was a YA myself. And like the ones you might have right now.
It's a book with heart, a book with soul.
It's a book that will endure.
Buy a copy right this minute, and help make sure that that happens.Please Ignore Vera Dietz Overview

Nailed ReviewMandy lives and breathes construction. She grew up in a family that owns their own construction company. When she graduates from high school, she starts her summer job at a site that her brother, Marc, is over. On her first day, she meets the other guys that will be working on the house with her. They are A.J., Larry and a guy that Mandy affectionately nicknames Boston, because of his baseball cap. At the job, Mandy is most interested in the quite Boston, but also loves the attention that she gets from the older A.J. Her brother, Marc, is not cutting Mandy any slack, giving her the clean up work, Marc isn't thrilled that Mandy is on his job. When the guys find out that Boston has sworn off girls for awhile, after getting his heart broken, they all start a bet to see how long that Boston can hold out. Meanwhile, Mandy and her best friend Cam hang out at Barnes and Noble, where Mandy loves to indulge herself in a great cafe drink and read construction books. Cam enjoys reading romance novels to get tips on getting a girl. This is also the place where the two meet to discuss the triangle that Mandy finds herself in. All of this rolled together plus some interesting twists in the book, equals Jennifer Laurens great novel Nailed.
I really enjoyed Nailed. It is a fast paced novel and has great flow to it. I really like Mandy's personality and how she loves construction and everything about it. Mandy is also a great headstrong heroin. In this story, the characters really come alive and I found myself rooting for Mandy and her quest to find out which guy is right for her. Even though the plot is somewhat stereotypical, Ms. Laurens writing is wonderful and adds a new twist on the story. This is a great read to pick up! Also, Jennifer is coming out with a new book in 2009 and it's called Heavenly. It looks good, so be on the lookout for it!

Perfect Chemistry ReviewAlex Fuentes is gang member from the south side of Fairfield, and Brittany Ellis is a privileged girl from the north. Each have a status and a reputation to uphold at Fairfield High, but they also have secrets--for Alex, it's the desire to break free from the Latino Blood gang and his tough image and succeed in life. Brittany's life may look perfect from the outside, but at home, her parents are struggling to deal with Brittany's handicapped sister.

Brittany and Alex are on the opposite ends of the social scene spectrum, but that doesn't stop their chemistry teacher from making them lab partners. It's hate at first sight for both, but as they learn more about each other and slowly move beyond the stereotypes, they'll discover completely new people.

Perfect Chemistry is the classic love story of two utterly different people falling for each other, despite their initial loathing. Elkeles breathes new life into the old tale, giving it a fresh teenage perspective by interchangeably writing in both Alex and Brittany's point of view, keeping Perfect Chemistry fresh and evenly paced. The plot is realistic and sweet without being cliché, and the dialogue is perfect; gritty, and genuine. Each side is portrayed objectively, and though Alex and Brittany's relationship does move at a fast pace, their thoughts, insecurities, hang-ups, and urges all ring true and are easy for nearly any teen to identify with.

Though it is an important part of the book, the romance doesn't dominate it: strong themes of acceptance, diversity, courage, and independence are also present, making for a powerful read that boldly faces the consequences of gang life, and offers an unflinching look at how difficult it is to extricate oneself from it. Elkeles has created a riveting and strong novel with an important and relevant message and a romance hotter than any exothermic reaction.Perfect Chemistry Overview
