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.

The Night Circus

by Erin Morgenstern

I wasn't sure what to expect when I began this book.  As I continued to read, I found myself wondering if this could really happen.  There are several characters who become real very quickly.  Imagine being part of a circus.  Now imagine that circus is only open at night.  The wonders and talents are fascinating.  It was an exciting tale; one that kept my attention and my imagination captivated.  I would absolutely recommend this book to anyone who likes a different perspective, enjoys a little creativity, and wants to be enveloped in the possibilities of the impossible.  No coarse language, no graphic violence, no sex.  What more could you ask for?!  It is a challenging read, so I would suggest high school at least for comprehension.
