Books…

So right now I’m reading the Diary of a Teenage Girl series (by Melody Carlson). They’re really, really amazing. I feel A LOT closer to God after reading them. Anybody else ever heard of (or read) them? If not, I really suggest you do. I finished the Kim books, I read one of the Chloe books, and I’m on the second to last Caitlin book. You can get them at your local bookstore. Here’s the cover for the one I’m on. It’s really a great teen fiction read, and deals with a bunch of real issues. The dialogue can be a bit dated at times, but it’s still a very powerful book.

Another book series I’ve been reading is the Katie Parker series (another Christian book!). It’s about a 16-year-old girl who’s living with Christan foster parents. Of course, when Katie came to them, she wasn’t a Christian, but that changes in the second book (sorry ’bout the spoiler!!). Right now I’m anxiously awaiting the third (it comes out in April). Unlike the Diary of a Teenage Girl books, the Katie Parker series is HILARIOUSLY funny. Here’s the cover of the first book in the series. This may be one of my all-time favorite book series- the writer, Jenny B. Jones, has a real talent (and is laugh-out-loud funny to boot!).

Anyways, if you guys have any other good reads, let me know! I’m a huge bookworm, after all.
