The Girl of Fire and Thorns by Rae Carson (reviewed by Dillon Barnes)

This book had one of the most powerful and lovable heroines.  She is not the 'ideal' woman which makes her all the more wonderful.  The book's struggle represents humans need for push into greatness. Throughout the book our heroine goes through politics, kicks butt, and deals with emotional turmoil.

Masque of the Red Death by Bethany Griffin (reviewed by Deserae RoseKing)

This book was very well-written and had a lot of really good character interaction, but it was a bit slow at times.  Overall, though, super good.  I hope there's a second. (4 stars)

Boy, I loved Masque of the Red Death!  It was inspired by Edgar Allen Poe's classic short story of the same name. Don't you love it when books do that? Want to try Bethany Griffin's take on the story?  Click here to check our catalog to see if Masque of the Red Death is on our shelves.

The Lost Dogs by Jim Gorant (reviewed by Kaela Jacobson)

It is a good story about some really sweet dogs.  I just don't like animal cruelty or dog fighting or anything like that.  And some of it was badly written. (4.5 stars)
