I enjoyed that one a lot. Had great characters and a good story that was deep. And it helped that the author is a Red Sox fan like myself. :-)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9180446384835146464.post-80247220688872254352014-01-22T11:57:24.970-06:002014-01-22T11:57:24.970-06:00This one does sound good, I'm looking forward ...This one does sound good, I'm looking forward to it! And I love the cover of it! :) I love Middle Grade books!<br /><br />A few Middle Grade Contemporary books I would recommend, if you haven't read them already, are:<br /><br />The Penderwicks by Jeanne Birdsall (This is one I would recommend to everyone! It's really good, and I LOVE it!)<br />Flipped by Wendelin Van Draanen (This is a fun book, and the movie they made of it is great too!)<br />The Casson Family books by Hilary McKay (These books are hilarious!)<br />A Horse of Her Own by Annie Wedekind (Love it!)<br />The Heartbreak Messenger by Alexander Vance (This was good!)<br /><br />I could just keep listing them, but I'll stop here! If you read any of these, I hope you like them! :)<br />Jessicahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06025817812263190606noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9180446384835146464.post-71033371881422216912014-01-22T11:50:10.435-06:002014-01-22T11:50:10.435-06:00I wouldn't have guessed it was MG by that cove...I wouldn't have guessed it was MG by that cover. It's very sophisticated, and wouldn't look amiss on an adult novel. Anyway, it looks like 2014 is Emily Dickinson's year.

I love middle grade, although I don't read nearly as much as I used to. Have you read Wonder by R.J. Palacio. It's amazing - funny, heartwarming, and heartwrenching at times. And it's also contemporary. You should give it a try.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9180446384835146464.post-50368488201041835002014-01-22T02:55:24.375-06:002014-01-22T02:55:24.375-06:00Hey Ginger!

I can't personally recommend them as I've yet to read them myself but they're contemporary and sound like books you might like. Oh, and Kody Keplinger has an upcoming one also! Sounds really cute :)Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18234560405122776663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9180446384835146464.post-61089779796630866562014-01-22T02:54:36.364-06:002014-01-22T02:54:36.364-06:00This comment has been removed by the author.Rebeccahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18234560405122776663noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9180446384835146464.post-4968528864973321722014-01-22T02:43:16.455-06:002014-01-22T02:43:16.455-06:00i'm surprise to know it's middle grade. re...i'm surprise to know it's middle grade. really. this cover is quite different from the usual middle grade books cover.Fauziyyah Arimihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10083703356952775108noreply@blogger.com
