I've been reading some of your recommended books and enjoying them! The one I just finished is Keeping the Moon by Sarah Dessen, reviewed by Kaity. This is a good "coming of age" novel about a girl, Colie, with low self esteem until she discovers herself over the summer. She used to be fat, and still feels ugly even though she's lost all this weight. She goes to spend the summer with her Aunt Mira, who's a bit eccentric. Here she makes friends (for the first time in her teen life), discovers that she's attractive and falls in love. I give it Five Stars!
