TQ Review: Perfect by Ellen Hopkins | Reading After Bedtime
https://readingafterbedtime.wordpress.com/2012/10/21/tq-review-perfect-by-ellen-hopkins
A mom and two daughters share their love of reading. TQ Review: Perfect by Ellen Hopkins. October 21, 2012. Publisher: Margaret K. McElderry Books. This is another Ellen Hopkins YA novel. If I see an Ellen Hopkins. Book, especially one I haven’t read, I grab it and read it immediately. Ever since I first read Crank. I have been hooked. I love Hopkins’ books because:. They are written in verse form. They are so poignantly real. The themes are ones we all struggle with, or know someone who struggles with it.

A mom and two daughters share their love of reading. On the thirteenth…. September 13, 2012. Seems appropriate to not use writing convention rules on the thirteenth, not a Friday the thirteenth, but a thirteenth nonetheless. I am in the midst of the beginning of a new school year. We are three weeks in (yep, only three weeks! And the tone has been set. Did I have a point? I ask, now that I am finished. More stream of conscious, but ideas and thoughts I plan to revisit.

A mom and two daughters share their love of reading. 2013 Run Down … so far…. February 8, 2013. I have been reading. But, shortly before Thanksgiving 2012, I fell into the awful habit of starting a book, setting it on my nightside table, going to bed, possibly reading it again the next night, but before long, I would switch books before the first one was finished. I currently have 12 books – all partially finished – sitting on my nightstand. I will be posting reviews, soon, of the following:. You are com...

A mom and two daughters share their love of reading. Didn’t read it or started it but couldn’t finish it. Just didn’t like it. Lacking something special. It’s either the writing style or the content that put me off of liking it too much. Meh Give or take. Like it or leave it. I could recommend to certain people, mostly due to content. Great book. Likely to read it a few more times. Easily recommend to others. Can read it a thousand and one times! Click to share on Twitter (Opens in new window). The Broke...
