How To Use This Book List

Many of the books here are written for young adults. However, some are definitely adult books. I don't always specify in my comments; however if you are interested in a book, find it at the library. If it's in Juvenile Fiction or Young Adult Fiction, it's usually safe for kids 12-15 (be sure to preview just in case). If the book is found elsewhere, you can always ask a librarian for their input.
Personally, a few swear words don't do much for me, so I don't usually remember they are in there. Other types of content, however, are usually commented on.
Enjoy!!

p.s. Please leave a "care-to-share" (aka, comment) anytime you like.

Harry Potter and the Sorcerer's Stone

by J.K. Rowling

I had completely forgotten how this series started. It's been at least 5 years since I last read this book. I love how it keeps my interest, but isn't so intense I have to re-read each page to understand what's going on. In fact, I could read while talking to Luke while he was playing outside!

I love how real Harry is - he is just a normal kid who is doing the best he can with what he has. When I finds out he's a wizard, his character doesn't really change, he just improves himself even more.

Great book (series) for kids who need a little confidence boost!

    I'm trying to decide when to start this series again- I want to finish them just before the 7th movie comes out.

    Love them!
