So, what do you guys think? My daughter could NOT finish Before I Fall. I was sad that Matched by Ally Condie wasn't included. Also, I wasn't thrilled about I Am Number Four making the list considering the ugliness that transpired from James Frey's Fiction Factory (basically made the book).
Let me know your thoughts!
Happy Reading! |
