YA Standalone Wrap-up

Not Afraid 5

I TOTALLY ROCKED THIS CHALLENGE, in my own way, so there! :P *immaturity abounds* Again, I AM NOT AFRAID TO STANDALONE. And read some awesome books while doing it, of course! ;) Anywho, I have a SUPER long list for this one. I'll link the reviews first, then the unread books, as per usual. AND WITH MY SUPER EPIC COMMENTARY! ;D

Someone Else's Life by Katie Dale <--I'll warn you again! DO NOT READ. Tis' horrid!
Above by Leah Bobet <--I cover every aspect of the novel in one sentence or less!
The List by Siobhan Vivian <--Hm. I don't like being judged.
My Life Next Door by Huntley Fitzpatrick <--I love my life.
Purity by Jackson Pearce <--I get a bit riled up, but I like the review.
The International Kissing Club by Ivy Adams <--I like thinking of myself as book characters. Keeps the creepers away.
The Queen of Kentucky by Alecia Whitaker <--I describe my town!
Gone, Gone, Gone by Hannah Moskowitz <--Hm. I don't bring up the real issue, but no matter. o_O

    1. I've been hearing that it's fantastic! I've read another book by him, and it was pretty good (aside from all the math references), so TFiOS should be nice. I'll be sure to keep kleenex close by. (:
