The Heartbreakers by Ali Novak

"When I met Oliver Perry, I had no clue he was the lead singer for The Heartbreakers. And he had no idea that I was the only girl in the world who hated his music."
Stella will do anything for her sick sister, Cara-even stand in line for an autographed Heartbreakers CD...for four hours. She's totally winning best birthday gift this year. At least she met a cute boy with soft brown hair and gorgeous blue eyes while getting her caffeine fix. Too bad she'll never see him again.
Except, Stella's life has suddenly turned into a cheesy love song. Because Starbucks Boy is Oliver Perry – lead singer for the Heartbreakers. And even after she calls his music crap, Oliver still gives Stella his phone number. And whispers quotes from her favorite Disney movie in her ear. OMG, what is her life?
But how can Stella even think about being with Oliver – dating and laughing and pulling pranks with the band – when her sister could be dying of cancer?
Why you should read this book:
  • Romantic and fun!
  • If you are a fan of boy-bands, this is your type of book.
  • A light read that also addresses deeper issues of family and self-discovery.
  • I am a sucker for books where a famous person/prince/billionaire falls for a normal person.

"What's Your Favorite Book?"


Beloved by Toni Morrison

No other book punched me in the gut like this one. Absolutely haunting.



Current Favorite: Warcross

My favorite book changes often! Warcross was a book I thought I would dislike, but ended up finishing in 2 days. It is my current favorite because it was out of my "reading comfort zone" yet still hooked me in!

Treehouse Art

One of our third grade classes asked if I would display their collaborative treehouse art in the library. Here is their display of very fun looking treehouses surrounding a community soccer field.  It is nice to have student art in the library!

The Stand by Stephen King
I love how detailed the characters are and how they change throughout the book. (And the apocalypse is cool to read about too!)
