Happy Springtime Reads

Source
Greetings fellow earthlings! It's me, Unicorn. It's finally spring! You know what that means; no school, lots of sun, and lots and lots of time for reading! To welcome the spring time, I've compiled a list of 6 happy books to get you in a happy spring mood.


1. EVERYTHING EVERYTHING BY NICOLA YOON

This book is about Madeline, a girl who is allergic to everything. She stays inside her clean, controlled home 24/7. She never leaves, and she's perfectly fine with that. Until a boy named Olly moves in next door and all of a sudden, the outside world seems much more interesting.


2. FANGIRL BY RAINBOW ROWELL

Cath is an author. An author of fan fiction to be exact. Cath and her inseperable twin sister Wren are now attending college. But for poor little anti-social Cath, things only go downhill from there. Wren tells Cath that she doesn't want to be roommates anymore, and Cath is surrounded by: her creative writing professor who thinks fan fiction is horrible, her roommate's charming boyfriend, a classmate who's almost also as charming as her roommate's boyfriend and lots of partying-obsessed college students. On top of that, her father has never really been alone without his two daughters, and Cath has no idea if he'll be able to handle it - after all, she isn't sure if she can handle things herself.


3. THE LIES ABOUT TRUTH BY COURTNEY C. STEVENS

Sadie Kingston's life was perfect, until the accident happened. The accident that killed her best friend and left her with scars all over her. Sadie doesn't like crowds of people and generally avoids leaving her own home. But she has a list; a list of things she wants to do to overcome her fears and become herself again. The list is an impossible challenge, but Sadie Kingston is determined to do it.


4. WE ARE ALL MADE OF MOLECULES BY SUSIN NIELSIN

Stewart couldn't be more excited to have a new sister - step-sister that is. But when Stewart and his dad move in with Caroline, Stewart's new step-mom, and her daughter Ashley, nothing goes the way they had planned. Ashley thinks Stewart is nothing but annoying and definitely not a part of her family. This book covers loss, divorce, and other serious topics but remains a happy, hilarious read at the same time.


5. HARRY POTTER AND THE PHILOSOPHER'S STONE

Harry Potter is treated badly by everyone; Aunt Petunia, Uncle Vernon, and his spoiled cousin Dudley. Harry lives in a cupboard under the stairs and has a miserable life, until strange things begin happening, and Harry ends up in Hogwarts School Of Witchcraft and Wizardry. It turns out that Harry Potter is not an ordinary boy, he is a wizard!


6. I'LL GIVE YOU THE SUN BY JANDY NELSON

Noah and Jude are twins, and though they're opposites, they're very close. But then, they're torn apart and barely speak to each other. To fix their broken worlds, the twins need to find their ways back to each other. (I have not read this book, but Pegasus recommends it. Click here to read a much better summary at Goodreads.)

P.S. So many posts! This is, what, 3 posts in 5 days now? I'm on a roll!
P.P.S. Pegasus is currently really busy, which is why she hasn't posted much on the blog lately. She's planning on writing more posts when she has time, though, no worries. :)
