Books for Young Readers!
This website is a place for young readers to come, for discussion, for recommendations, to make recommendations, and generally share their love of reading. All the book reviews here are books for young readers, and readers that are young at heart.
If you’re a reluctant reader – don’t worry – this is the place for you too. Why waste time finding good books when others can find them for you? Use my easy-to-follow rating system (A+ to F-. Sound familiar?) to find a book that will appeal to you.
Also, don’t forget to check out our new forums!
I can’t wait to hear your thoughts and to share mine…
Happy reading,
-Paige Turner

Synopsis:
DJ has enough responsibility for three high school students! She’s in charge of doing all the farm work on her family’s dairy farm while her father recovers from an injury. She’s failing English. Her younger brother won’t speak to anyone and her older brothers are in a feud with her father. The last thing she needs is to worry about training the quarterback from the rival town’s football team. Or is it the best thing for her? As DJ spends more time with Brian, he teaches her the importance of speaking up for herself and figuring out just what it is that will make her happy.
