The Secret

In Which I Review... My Invisible Boyfriend by Susie Day

A hilarious novel about the ultimate high school hoax gone wrong - Heidi invents a boyfriend only to find that her fake Romeo is suddenly more popular than she is!

Heidi has the perfect solution to her popularity problems - a fake boyfriend. She's even made him an Internet profile that makes him look like a motorcycle-riding, poetry reading bad boy. *swoon* Heidi's friends are so impressed they start emailing Heidi's fake boyfriend with their problems . . . including their problems with Heidi.

As if that weren't bad enough, a delicious and possibly single person called "A Real Boy" emails Heidi to say he knows the truth. Can Heidi escape from her world wide web of lies? Or will her chance at romance disappear faster than you can type gtg?

 Hardcover: 288 pages 
Publisher: Scholastic Press

Review originally written on our FB page : April 15, 2011

It was hard to get into this book in the beginning. It was a little rambly and slow but as I reached further into the plot, I found the main character,Heidi, very funny and quirky. She talks to a self projected version of the hero of her favorite television show (a.k.a. a over idealized version of her conscience), dates a gingerbread cookie, and muddles up her friendships. The main fault of this story is how late the actual plot of the story comes into play but in the end, Heidi's imagination, Teddy's huggable nature, Ed's emails, Mycroft Christie's allure, and the muck she makes of the situations dealt to her point me further in her favor. And if you really have no idea what any of that last sentence could possibly mean, pick up the book and have a blast reading!

Imaginary Girls

Imaginary Girls by Nova Ren Suma (NY: Dutton Books, 2011). Chloe's life has always revolved around her older sister Ruby. Ruby and Chloe have managed on their own for years, their drunken mother living in the town but not part of their lives. Ruby has a car and a job at a convenience store. And she's got something more--Ruby has some kind of mesmerizing effect on everyone in her orbit. They bend to her will and Ruby gets whatever she wants, whenever she wants, however she wants. Then one night she convinces everyone that Chloe can swim across the reservoir, and even Chloe believes her. But something happens, and Chloe finds a girl dead in a boat in the reservoir. Questions are asked and Chloe ends up in Pennsylvania for two years living with her father, away from Ruby from whom she hears nothing the entire time. Then Ruby manages to contact Chloe and Chloe goes back to her town, where she sees London, the girl who died, and reality starts fracturing. This is an eerily...

Paranormalcy

Paranormalcy by Kiersten White (NY: HarperTeen, 2010). Like many sixteen-year-old girls, Evie likes the color pink, shopping for clothes, and teen television drama. But unlike most teenagers, Evie has to spend a lot of her time capturing paranormal creatures for the International Paranormal Containment Agency (IPCA) because she has the unique ability to see beneath the glamours paranormals use to deceive humans. She's lived at the agency's headquarters since she was found abandoned on the streets at age 4, and she's fashioned a sort of home for herself with a best friend (who happens to be a mermaid) and a mother-like figure (the head of the agency, Raquel), plus assorted paranormal creatures. Upon returning from a routine bag-and-tag, Evie goes to debrief with Raquel, the head of the agency, but immediately notices that she's not talking to Raquel but some guy glittering beneath the surface. She tases the guy and he gets carted off to a containment cell, but she...
