Rachel Renee Russell has written another in the series of 'Dork Diaries' and this one is entitled 'Tales from a Not-so-Happily-Ever-After'. This is the diary of the main character of Nikki J. Maxwell and the start of her day that describes her morning routine, and of course something always goes wrong. In this one getting ready for school and running late because of her younger sister taking something from her that now makes her feel hurried, and you pretty much know that something is going to happen and does but will not be discovered till it is too late and at school.
The major story of this diary happens after being clobbered by a dodgeball in PE and still kind of fretting over an English creative writing assignment. How would you feel after being knocked out by dodgeball and thanks to that you have a dream that you will hate. Ah, the life of middle school that is filled up with a lot of angst and even good times one way or another from learning fashion to what you may like in kinds of snacks to some early serious kinds of friendships.
Technically, the author wrote this book as if it was actually a diary of a middle school girl that is somewhat popular and yet dorky at the same time with all the adventures of home and school. At the beginning of the book there is a map that kind of shows the basic idea of the book. This is a fun read for this age group of girls.

Goddess Girls
Joan Holub and Suzanne Williams have written a youth novel entitled 'Goddess Girls Aphrodite, the Beauty'. Who remembers studying Greek mythology in school or even in college? This story will show the readers very young versions of Greek gods and goddesses, as they could have been seen as middle school students. They are at the age where they are still learning about themselves and securing the various kinds of friendships that come along. They do tend to help each other as well as the mortals down below with issues and problems, and for Aphrodite that is all about love and seeing beauty in different ways. This is a book that will let you see Aphrodite, Ares, Poseidon, Athena, and a few other gods and goddesses in a fun and creative premise to get young readers interested in history even ancient history.

Standing While Falling
Quotation from Friedrich Nietzsche "He who wrestles long with monsters should beware lest he himself become a monster. And if you gaze long into an abyss, the abyss also gazes into you. Man is not destroyed by suffering, but by the meaning he makes of it."
