Books We Don't Recommend

This page is a list of books that I think shouldn’t be read by anyone under 19. {Please know, I’m not trying to make the authors cry, I’m really not! Since I do book reviews of not only pre-teen and young adult books, but also “adult” books and, unfortunately, some of them aren’t fitting for the target ages of this blog. But, I also have reviewed books that while are technically written for adults, that would be okay to even fabulous for a younger age than it was written for. Carrie Turansky’s novels would be an example for fabulous “adult books” that are perfect for teen girls.}

Please remember, all thoughts said on reviews are all mine (unless otherwise noted) we all have an opinion and we might disagree on an opinion with one book but love the next together! Please keep this in mind.  Thank you! :)
