So Not Okay Book Review and Giveaway


So Not Okay by Nancy Rue


This book takes place, at Gold Country Middle School, in Grass Valley, California. Mr. V, the Science teacher, assigns his class to think up a question about the human mind or body. The answer to the question needs to be unknown, you and your group had to figure out the answer to your question. Victoria Taylor, who goes by Tori, creates a group of four other girls in the class. Her, Ophelia Smith, Winnie George, and Mitch make up the group. The new girl Virginia Hollingberry, who goes by Ginger, gets invited by Tori to be in their group. Ophelia doesn't like that Tori invited her without the group's permission, because Ginger is getting bullied by a group of girls that tori calls, "The Pack". Soon the girls come up with the question; Why are boys and girls mean? Is it natural or learned? Because of the way and amount of time Ginger hangs out with Tori, "The Pack" has started bullying Tori as well. Soon her entire group, they call themselves a "Tribelet", also begins to be bullied by "The Pack". As the bullying increases, Ophelia soon gets tired of it, and begins to exclude herself from the "Tribelet". Winnie makes cards for the "Tribelet" to help protect each other, especially Ginger, from getting bullied. As time passes "The Pack" starts to back off of the "Tribelet", only to find that "The Pack" is going to make a big finish to end the "Tribelet" after their report is presented to the class. Finally, "The Pack's" plan gets destroyed by the "Tribelet", when one of the girls gets help from a teacher. The "Tribelet" makes a long paper with a list of things bullies do and the bystanders don't do to help, they get the whole school to sign their names on it. Everyone, except Kylie Steppe, the "Alpha Wolf" of "The Pack" that is.

I would definitely recommend this book to girls ages 10 to 15. It teaches that, just because you are not the bully or even the one being bullied, you should still do the right thing and help the bullying to stop. It teaches not to start a war with the bully, but with bullying itself. I loved reading this book, because it showed me that everyone has the choice to stop bullying before it happens.

Untimed- Orangeberry Book Tour Review

Image
Untimed is an action-packed time travel novel by Andy Gavin, author of The Darkening Dream and creator of Crash Bandicoot and Jak & Daxter. Charlie’s the kind of boy that no one notices. Hell, his own mother can’t remember his name. So when a mysterious clockwork man tries to kill him in modern day Philadelphia, and they tumble through a hole into 1725 London, Charlie realizes even the laws of time don’t take him seriously. Still, this isn’t all bad. Who needs school when you can learn about history first hand, like from Ben Franklin himself. And there’s this girl… Yvaine… another time traveler. All good. Except for the rules: boys only travel into the past and girls only into the future. And the baggage: Yvaine’s got a baby boy and more than her share of ex-boyfriends. Still, even if they screw up history — like accidentally let the founding father be killed — they can just time travel and fix it, right? But the future they return to is nothing like Charlie remembers. To set th...
