A Charmed Life by Jenny B. Jones

What can I tell you about this series except that it is amazing...pure genius. You must read it.

A Charmed Life is a collection of three novels; So Not Happening, I'm So Sure, and So Over My Head. 

I first picked up So Not Happening at the Springfield Library's Book Sale (which I always go to with my best friend Hannah...it is kind of a tradition) and, to be honest I had no clue what it was about...I just thought the pig on the cover was cute. Plus, it was only 25 cents and I never pass up a good deal. :)

---------------------------------------------------

Isabella Kirkwood (better known as Bella) is not too thrilled when her mom marries a factory manager from a small town in Oklahoma. She is especially not excited about leaving her posh life of designer clothes, fancy cars, and her hot boyfriend in New York City. She now goes to a school were people don't even know the difference between Prada and Gucci..eww. When she thinks things couldn't get any worse she finds out Hunter (the hot boyfriend from NYC) is cheating on her with none other than her best friend. She decides to put all her anger aside and join the school's newspaper...where she meets Mr. Luke Sullivian.

Luke Sullivian. Oh Luke, can I marry you? He’s the most perfect guy I have ever read. So chivalrous and smart, and even though he likes Bella, he is not going to put up with her games. I love how dedicated he is, and certainly, I love his preppy style. Oh, and I can't forget, he looks like this...

Now picture Bella..(better yet know as me)...

Now picture them together...

It is such a perfect match...I can't even begin to explain. I have read this book so many times and each time I still get goosebumps anytime Bella and Luke are together..:) 

Okay, back to the book. Bella joins the newspaper and she gets put with a story about the football team. The story is dangerous, mysterious..and very suspenseful. Many times does she almost die..don't worry though, she doesn't (their are three books..duh). 

If you're not pulled in already let me just tell you that this book is a Christian book. She has Christian principles, their are not any cuss words, and she treats everyone with respect. 

I would defiantly recommend reading this book! You'll love it! 

Love, Grace Elizabeth Nickols..xoxo 

Christian Fiction

Recently while at the library I noticed that they have an amazing teen Christian book section. I love reading Christian fiction because it is clean! I never have to worry about reading something that I don't want to read about. Here are some of my favorite Christian fiction:

The Summer of Cotton Candy by Debbie Viquie

16 year-old Candace gets a job at the local amusement park when she is forced by her father to apply. When she gets there she meets a mysterious "Lone Ranger" who she falls for. While working at the amusement park her friendships with the people she meets  start to grow and, she learns the meaning of true faith and friendship.- I can not wait to read the sequel to this book The Fall of Candy Corn! I give this book a 4/5 Grace Stars!

The Grace Notes by Dandi Daley Mackall

Gracie Doe can tell you when your teacher is planning a pop quiz or when your best friend secretly likes your boyfriend through her keen sense of observation. She tells about all her observations on her anonymous blog. When a new girl comes to town and finds out about her secret blog identity she is forced to identify God's purpose in belonging. -There are 5 other books in the Blog On series. Check them out. I give these books 3/5 Grace Stars. They are short and easy to read, great for a lazy Saturday!

Pure by Terra Elan McVoy

Tabitha and her friend all wear purity rings that symbolize their virginity till marriage. Now that they all have boyfriends there rings have started to mean so much more. As Tab's relationship with her new boyfriend grows stronger, her relationship with her best friend Morgan goes weak. As her world starts to crash down she is forced to re-examine her faith, friendships, and just exactly what it means to be pure.-They wrapped all of the problems of the book into the last few pages and, I would of liked to of seen them mend all the friendships. Although I didn't quite enjoy the ending, this was still a great book! I give it a 3.5/5 Grace Stars! Happy Reading :) 

I hope you all have seen that good, clean, Christian books do exist! If you guys have any Christian books you like tell me in the comments! :)
