Confessions of a Murder Suspect

By James Patterson and Maxine Paetro

This book is about a girl named Tandy who has grown up in an extraordinary family with brilliant parents worth millions of dollars. There is no junk food or anything unintelligent in their household. Two of her three brothers are extremely athletic and her other brother is an art prodigy and Tandy herself has a talent of surprising emotion. There all seem to be going amazing places until it all crashes down when their parents are found dead in their room. Their is no signs of forced entry or anything which leaves the prime suspects the kids.
I really liked this book. I have read other books by this author and loves all of them. The writing is very good and there are good characters and original plots.

Ember in the Ashes

By Sabaa Tahir

This book is about a girl named Laia who's brother is arrested for treason so she goes undercover in a military academy in exchange for help from scholars who say that they can help her save her brother from being executed. I liked that the plot of this book was very original and I also really liked the characters.
For a book group later this year I would like to do a realistic fiction book.

Headphones

You create a bubble of solitude

The wondering whispers of bitterness can't get past your barricade

You are my life interlude

When I succeed you are the accolade 

Breathing sweet sounds of ecstasy into my mind 

Filling me with bliss

When you play it seems like the stars are aligned 

Your magnificent melody makes alley worries fall away into the abyss 

The Siren

by Kiera Cass

This book is about a siren named Kahlen who lures strangers to their death, but when she meets a boy and starts to fall in love with him she worries what will happen to them when they find out that he is human. This book was pretty good, but I didn't love the plot because it didn't seem very original. I did like this book, but I like some of Kiera Cass's books better like The Selection.
