Brody has a true gem on her hands with the book, "The Karma Club." These high school characters really delve their readers into something that most teens think of seeking out when they're heartbroken, Revenge! They start a club to hurt people who have hurt them.... but in the end it's karma who has the last laugh. This book is great for soul searchers, heart-broken teens, and anyone who wants to read a great teen book that is not predictable. I think it is also a great lesson learning book for teens who fall into the social trap of being a"mean girl."

To All the Boys I've Loved Before by Jenny Han
Best selling author Jenny Han gives us a fresh look at what would happen if all our past crushes knew how we felt. Lara Jean, a spunky high school student who likes to stay away from the popular crowd finds her hat box of love letters mailed out by mistake.In the middle of this mishap, she must learn to cover up her feelings for her sister's "barely" ex and convince everyone that she and Peter ( her cover-up and fellow love letter recepient) are an item. Lara learns some lessons about sisters, real relationships, and surviving the teen dating game. Readers will enjoy how the author makes the characters come to life and how the story is not as predictable as you might think. What would you do if all your "unmailed" love letters were sent away? The sequel is P.S I Still Love You and is hard to get your hands on... but do try!
