The Perks of Being a Wallflower
by
"This is my absalute favorite book. It really, honestly changed me after I read it. It is the kind of book that everyone should read at one point in their life, preferably in their teenage years."

Looking for Alaska
by
" This, like The Perks of Being a Wallflower, is a book everyone should read at one point in their life. John Green's writing is incredible and his characters are brilliant. I can't go into too much detail with out giving things away but I can say that this is an amazing book and that Alaska Young is one of my favorite literary characters of all time."

The Shack
by
"This book affected me even more than The Perks of Being a Wallflower did. By the time I read it, I had a relatively strong faith. I believed in God. I prayed every now and then. This book changed me. I formed a relationship with God by reading this book. It really is amazing. I've given this book to friends. I've given it to family. I've given it to teachers/sisters who work at my catholic school. It's absalutely fantastic."

The Giver (The Giver, #1)
by
"I read The Giver for the first time in Fourth Grade when I got it for Christmas. Since then, I've read it more times than I'd like to admit. Ever single time I read it, I learn something new. This book is more than your common Utopia book. This book is more than your common book. This book is a masterpiece."

Breakfast at Tiffany’s and Three Stories
by
" Holly is my #1 favorite literary character of all time. I could relate to her in a way I would have never expected and, in turn, learned some things about myself. Holly is charming and utterly fabulous while the unnamed narrator is charmingly awkward. Together, they make beauty. Truman Capote is a literary genius and Breakfast at Tiffany's is his finest work."

The Hunger Games Trilogy Boxset (The Hunger Games, #1-3)
by
" I was blown away by this trilogy. Suzanne Collins created a Dystopia unlike any other. The pure evil in the Capitol is haunting, even more so when it is treated so casually in the book. Katniss' character is funny and easy to relate to. She takes you through the struggles of adolesence as well as through the fictional world of Panem. Peeta is the charming, fictional heart throb of teenage girls. Every single character, no matter how significant they are, was artfully crafted with such detail it's astonishing. "

Harry Potter Series Box Set (Harry Potter, #1-7)
by
"These books are legendary. Its hard to believe that anyone over the age of twelve has not read the Harry Potter Series. Anyways, these books take you through the fictional world of Harry Potter and, as he learns about magic and Hogwarts and Voldemort, we learn important life lessons. J.K Rowling created characters that are extremely hard not to love or, if they're dark, hate. I can really ramble on for hours about Harry Potter so, for your sake and mine, I'm going to stop here."

Eat, Pray, Love
by
"Eat, Pray, Love is about a woman who travels to Italy, India, and Bali to find herself and complete some life goals in the meantime. Every chapter is filled with humor and emotion. Its easy to feel what Elizazbeth Gilbert felt when reading her work and you immediately fall in love with all four destinations. In her journey to find herself, I found a bit of myself."
