Sorry that I haven't been posting for so long. This isn't about a book, I just felt like posting something because, well you know I can. Also, I felt kind of bad for not posting in for ever. It isn't that I don't read it is just not really what I call fun to post about books on my blog. So if you are reading this and you haven't checked out Ms.Yingling Reads.blogspot.com I would seriously do it. She is a great blogger and she is constantly updating it. My language arts teacher also has a blog but I don't know how to spell it.

Isabelle Lee's father has died and there is much grief. But when her sister April sees her kneeling over the toilet she tell their mom. Isabelle's mom then puts her in a "Group" to talk about eating disorders. But when Isabelle sees the most popular girl at school walk into that room she thinks there must be some kind of mistake. This book by Natasha Friend shows that being bulimic is a hard thing to stop. I didn't know anything about bulimia so it was interesting.

The Clique
In Lisi Harrison's first Clique book, Massie Block has control over the most popular group of girls at Octavian Country Day (OCD). That is, until Claire comes. Claire's father is a friend of Massie's father and Mr. Block is letting Claire's family stay in Massie's guest house until they can afford something else. The first time Massie sees Claire she doesn't like her. Claire Lyons is not popular and doesn't care what she looks like. Claire starts at OCD and Massie and the clique (Dylan Marvil, Alicia Rivera, and Kristin Gregory) are constantly picking on her and embarrassing her in front of everybody. Throughout the book Claire tries to find ways for Massie to accept her.I read through these pretty quickly. The writing always made me want to find out what happened next.
