Secret Society by Tom Dolby
The title of this book sort of gives away the storyline, but it was still a great read. So, like the title implies, this book is about a secret society based in New York City. Teens invited into the society are promised wealth and success. What teens, Nick and Phoebe, do not realize is that success comes with a price. It takes a dead body in Central Park to determine how high of a price. You must read this book to figure out how far people will go for fame and fortune, and are Nick and Phoebe willing to accept this bargain? It's a quick read that you will enjoy!
Fallenby Lauren Kate
Vampires seems to have been a trend for the last couple of years, but recently it seems to have shifted towards tales of dark angels. While the angel angle is not mentioned early on in the story, I found it to be pretty apparent from the start. This story begins when the main character, Luce, being sent to a strict reform school. Once there, she is basically cut off from the world she has known. The school offers few friendships because the other students are so tough and stand-offish. Although, one student named Daniel seems to inexplicably attract Luce. To learn more about the link between Luce and Daniel, you must read the whole book!
Custom Kicks: Personalized Footwear
by Kim Smits
This book is a new item on the teen nonfiction shelf. The book is so awesome. It has picture after picture of shoes that have been customized with art (with mostly paint). It is a fun art book to leisurely flip through. After reading it I am totally inspired to buy some plain white Converse and start painting. Be on the look out for me rockin some awesome new shoes!

Just a reminder that the Bistro Book Club and Teen Gaming are still going strong. Bistro Book Club meets every Wednesday from 4-5pm. It still is the place for teens to get their hands on hot new teen book titles. Teen Gaming takes place every 2nd and 4th Friday of the month. We even periodically have new games, due to our partnership with Gamestop. It is a great way to spend your Friday afternoon with friends. I know the cold weather makes you want to hibernate at home (like bears), but come to the library and be social!
