Endless Summer by Jennifer Echols stars clueless Lori McGuillicudy who gets in romantic entanglements with the boys next door. The cool thing about Endless Summer is that it is two books in one.

Glass by Ellen Hopkins: ‘It’s like glass, when we break’
September 26, 2010
There is a song from an obscure 90s movie called Angus, that I can’t get out of my head. It sort of reminds me of Glass by Ellen Hopkins. The song is called Am I Wrong and it’s by Love Spit Love. Basically, there’s just one line that reminds me of the book, “It’s like […]
