Middle School: My Brother is a Big, Fat Liar by James Patterson and Lisa Papademetriou

My name is Georgia Khatchadorian, and I know what my brother, Rafe, told you:  LIES, All LIES!

He says I'm annoying and a tattletale and a pudding cup thief. (Well, okay, maybe that last part is true.)
But that's not the whole story.
I'm also

• smarter than him (who isn't)
• more popular than him (who isn't)
• and way, WAY funnier (it's really not that hard).

So if you're ready for the truth about how the life of a totally innocent girl (that would be ME) and her first year of middle school were ruined by her horrible brother (RAFE) and his superbad reputation...

It's time to set the record straight!

Perfect by Ellen Hopkins

Everyone has something, someone, somewhere else that they’d rather be. For four high-school seniors, their goals of perfection are just as different as the paths they take to get there.

Cara’s parents’ unrealistic expectations have already sent her twin brother Conner spiraling toward suicide. For her, perfect means rejecting their ideals to take a chance on a new kind of love. Kendra covets the perfect face and body—no matter what surgeries and drugs she needs to get there. To score his perfect home run—on the field and off—Sean will sacrifice more than he can ever win back. And Andre realizes that to follow his heart and achieve his perfect performance, he’ll be living a life his ancestors would never understand.

Everyone wants to be perfect, but when perfection loses its meaning, how far will you go? What would you give up to be perfect?
