The Other Boleyn Girl

By Philippa Gregory

Reviewed by Julian

If you love historical fiction, then you will love this book. The Other Boleyn Girl is the tragic story of the two most famous sisters in England’s History. One was Mary Boleyn, the mistress to King Henry VIII of England. The other, Anne Boleyn, was his second queen and the mother of Queen Elizabeth I of England. Read as Anne seduces the King of England into deflecting from the Catholic Church and overthrowing his legal wife. This story is a great way to look into the past filled with passion, loyalty, greed, and murder. The Other Boleyn Girl, along with other books by Philippa Gregory, is a wonder to read. I really hope you read this book.

Perfect Chemistry

By Simone Elkeles

Reviewed by Hasmik

What can i possibly say about Perfect Chemistry other than it is the most incredible story of two teenagers from completely different worlds! Their whole lives change when they are put together as chemistry partners. They end up falling in love and....you'll just have to read the book to find out!! It was a very inspiring book and gave me a whole new look at the people at my high school. There's not a part that's not interesting and it makes you want to keep on reading. I highly recommend this book to everyone! Enjoy!!
