Night Road by Kristin Hannah

This book was sort of interesting. At times it was verging on boring, but the basis story was good, but at times frustrating. Two young teens fell in love and a sister was the best friend of the girl. There was a drunk driving accident that changed everything. One of the teens underwent a large struggle which would ruin the lives of most people. I can't say much without ruining the story. One of the teens was very poor and her mother was a drug addict. The other two teens were twins of exceptionally wealthy parents. I would give this book a 7/10. It was too bland to be that enticing despite the good story line (for me anyway).

Son by Lois Lowry

Excellent book. I enjoyed the way this book tied in with The Giver by the same author. I also enjoyed the way the book was so unique and I also like dystopia books. I don't know why, and I'm not sure it's healthy to like society not working out, but I do!! The touching relationship between a mother and her son makes me happy to read. I would give this book a 9.5/10.
