In which I do a quick review of teen books I've read

Title: The Academie

Author: Susanne Dunlap

Series:   no

Chapters: 50 plus epilogue

Pages: 356

Genre: Teen Historical fiction

Rating: 4 ½  

     Main characters Eliza Monroe daughter of James Monroe

     Hortense daughter of Josephine Bonaparte

     Caroline Bonaparte Napoleon’s sister

     The Academie is a cute teen historical fiction story that for main stream teen fiction it really is a clean read I don’t remember any profanity in the book.

Title: Scarlet

Author: A.C. Gaughen

Series:   no

Chapters: 16

Pages: 292

Genre: Teen fiction retold myths

Rating: 3 stars I gave this rating because of the use of profanity PG-13 for profanity and violence

Main characters: Will Scarlet (Scarlet), Robin Hood, John Little (Little John), and Much

     Growing up I always loved the story of Robin Hood and his band of merry man. I was excited to see a story with a new twist to the legend. Will Scarlet was the youngest member of Robin’s band, but what if Will wasn’t a boy but a young woman Scarlet who was running from her past. I enjoyed the story up until the author used a cuss word that I couldn’t over look. To me I think the story would be even better if it hadn’t had all the language in it. 

Title: The Pregnancy Project

Author: Gaby Rodriquez

Series:  

Chapters: 13

Pages: 218

Genre: Memoir

Rating: 4 Stars

     Pretty good read and informative. Gaby was a girl how wanted to make a difference.
