Hi,

Well, 13 to Life is an awesome series. I would love to describe it to you without giving it away while still letting you read about how great it is but....that's not my strong suit.
Here's what that cover says
"Everything about Jessie Gillmansen’s life changed when her mother died. Now even her hometown of Junction is changing. Mysterious dark things are happening. All Jessie wants is to avoid more change. But showing a hot new guy around Junction High, she’s about to discover a whole new type of change. Pietr Rusakova is more than good looks and a fascinating accent—he’s a guy with a dangerous secret. And his very existence is sure to bring big trouble to Jessie’s small town. It seems change is the one thing Jessie can’t avoid."

Um the genre is fiction.....
My favorite characters are Pietr and Derek. Pietr because he's so loyal and a bit complicated, and Derek because he's such an intresting character that surprised me(especially in book2:
Secrets and Shadows)
I read the first book and became sucked in within the first first few pages!!! heart The second book was ah-ma-zing!!! Waiting for the third book Bargins and Betrayals is horrible!

I suggest this book to any and everyone!!!

Questions
Can you relate to any of the characters?
How did you hear about 13 to Life?
Would this make a good movie? If so/not why?


So with that done, please share your thoughts

I've never heard of these books. How many are in the series? What's your favorite part of the series?

I didn't hear about them until my birthday in March when my friend gave me the first book. You should definitely read them though. They are a best kept secret of the book world that I'm trying to spill.


Right now there are only 2 books out, but the 3rd book will be on sale August 15th or 16th of this year.
The author said she plans on having 5 books total in the series but I don't think that includes the side stories. =)
She has another book out called Beasts and BFFs that I found out about earlier today!!!
It's a bonus 13 to Life prequel story. heart

I would still have to think about a favorite part because the books just kick-butt in my opinion so picking out a favorite part will come more clearly after the rush of awesomeness goes on cruise control.
