Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher

"A lot of you cared, just not enough."

Walking Disaster by Jamie McGuire

Travis Maddox lost his mother when he was very young. Her parting advice? Love hard... Fight Harder.

Before I begin my review, I would like to tell you how I got this book. Me and dad went to a famous local bookstore and saw this book on one of the shelves. I read the summary and thought, "Hmmm.. This sounds like a good book." I save the title AND the author on my phone so I can buy it next time. 2 weeks later, went to the same bookstore, saw it again and then buy! No more second thoughts... Ok that's a really boring story.

Cathy Glass

I have to do special mention of one of my favourite authors. Through her books, based on real stories, she exposes the cruel world of children being abused in the UK. Not only abused by strangers but by their own family members (such as parents).

One Hundred Names by Cecelia Ahern

One hundred names...
one hundred people.
Kitty Logan inherits just a single list with the promise that it's a story she has to tell.

Journalist Kitty Logan’s career has been destroyed by scandal, and she now faces losing the woman who guided her and taught her everything she knew. At her mentor’s bedside, Kitty asks her – what is the one story she always wanted to write?

The answer lies in a file buried in Constance’s office: a list of one hundred names. There is no synopsis, no explanation, nothing else to explain what the story is or who these people are. The list is simply a mystery.

But before Kitty can talk to her friend, it is too late.

With everything to prove, Kitty is assigned the most important task of her life – to write the story her mentor never had the opportunity to. Kitty has to not only track down and meet the people on the list, but find out what connects them. And, in the process of hearing ordinary people’s stories, she uncovers Constance’s – and starts to understand her own… 

What I love about Cecelia Ahern's writing is that, she brings you to the world of magic... No, not the David Blaine's kind of magic.
