GREAT NECK TEENS RECOMMEND<br />

BOOK REVIEWS FROM THE TEEN SUMMER PROGRAM<br />

Thank you to the teens who participated in the Teen Summer Program.<br />

Here are highlights from some of the insightful book reviews written by<br />

<strong>Great</strong> <strong>Neck</strong> teens:<br />

The Clique Summer Collection: Kristen by Lisi Harrison<br />

“This is a GREAT summer book. It has pranks, crushes, and costumes. And,<br />

if Kristen is your favorite Pretty Committee member, you'll learn a lot more<br />

about her.” 4 out of 5<br />

Plastic Angels by Nerissa Nields<br />

“…it shows friendship and devotion and accomplishment all throughout the<br />

book.” 5 out of 5<br />

Secrets of My Hollywood Life: Paparazzi Princess by Jen Calonita<br />

“I would recommend this book to my friend. Actually, I would recommend<br />

the whole series because I have really enjoyed reading it. The story seems<br />

real, and it gives you the inside scoop on the life of celebrities. I'm happy that<br />

I decided to give this series by Jen Calonita a chance because they have<br />

turned out to be amazing novels.” 5 out of 5<br />

13 Little Blue Envelopes by Maureen Johnson<br />

“Yes I would recommend this book to a friend, because, it is so much fun<br />

and adventurous for a teenage girl like me.” 5 out of 5<br />

Uglies by Scott Westerfeld<br />

“I absolutely loved this book. It shows humans can never be perfect, no<br />

matter how hard we try. There are lots of twists and it's very philosophical.”<br />

5 out of 5<br />
