I like all these books. Good choices! and you know, this is coming from a middle schoolers prospective!

So far, I only read one of them, Waiting for Normal by Leslie Connor. It is very touching. The plots and the characters are very amazing. This kind of story can always come to our every life. The only thing we need is to keep on struggling for normal, just like what Addie did.

What about the rest? are they recommended?

I have had some of books listed above. Some of them are The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins, Diamond Willow by Helen Frost, Waiting for Normal by Leslie Connor. All of these books are really interesting book to have The Red Necklace: A Story of the French Revolution by Sally Gardner. I haven’t had it yet.

Waiting for Normal is a really good and life related book. it shows how Addie is becoming more and more independent with her mom being gone all the time. this book shows how a normal girl becomes more determined and confident with herself. This is a great read that is worth the time.
