Hi! Thank you so much Beverley for having me on A Reading Daydreamer!! I love LOVE this blog! My names Beth and I'm from teenage book blog Page-turner. I started Page-turner in July 2011, but I started day to day blogging around September :-) I love books (x100000!) blogging, reading, writing....anything bookish! I also love watching TV and going on the computer. :) Today I'm going to guest post about a few books that I loved and “kept me turning the pages!” I hope you enjoy the post!..
The Hunger Games by Suzanne Collins
I love LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE LOVE The Hunger Games! The Hunger games are set in a dark vision of the near future were “The Capitol”, to make sure there are no up-risings, force one girl and one boy from each (12) participate in a deadly game called “The Hunger Games” were the 24 contestants have to fight to the death in an arena. The last person standing (alive..) wins.
Yes. I it gave me nightmares.

Torn by Cat Clarke
This was such a sad book,...that I loved! Torn is about a teenager called Alice who goes on a trip with her whole class. She is in a room with her best friend, Rae the moody-emo, Polly the social out-cast and Tara, the queen of mean, who is the most popular girl in school. I don't want to reveal much...but this defiantly kept me turning the pages!!!

The Future of Us by Jay Asher and Carolyn Mackler
I don't think this book had any jaw-dropping surprises, but it was a really addictive, page turner-ish read! I also loved the awesome story line. :) The Future of Us is about two teenagers, Emma and Josh set in 1996. Only half the students in there school had ever used the internet, and Facebook had not been invented it. However Emma and Josh discover Facebook (8 years before it was invented) and can see themselves, 15 years in the future.....

Fracture by Megan Miranda
Ahh! I had been wanting to read this book for ages, and when I did, it completely lived up to my expectations! It was a chilling, scary, absolute page turner! Fracture is about teenager, Delaney who falls into the icy waters of a Maine Lake by her friend, by then her heart has stopped beating. But then somehow, Delaney wakes up, completely fine....... or is she?

Thirteen Reasons Why by Jay Asher
I loved loved LOVED this book. I literally couldn't put it down! Thirteen Reasons Why is told from the view point of Clay Jenson, a teenage boy who was a friend of Hannah Baker, his fellow class mate who had committed suicide. I don't think I'll ever forget this book, and when people ask me for recommendations, this is at the top of my list!

Virals by Kathy Reichs
This book was amazing!! When I first picked it up in the bookshop, I thought this would be a sci-fi novel that would be hard to understand and I was considering not getting it.....that would have been one of the biggest regrets! :) Virals is about 4 teenagers; Tory, Hi, Shelton and Ben. After rescuing a diseased dog from an experiment chamber, something happens to them that will change there lives forever....
This was such an awesome book!

Thanks to Beth for such a wonderful guest post! I am so happy to have been able to invite Beth to A Reading Daydreamer again (you might remember the interview she did, click HERE to read it!) as she runs an amazing blog! Feel free to leave some comments... Have you read these books? What did you think of them? I am currently reading Torn and it really does keep me turning the pages and The Future of Us is sitting in the pile on my floor, waiting for its turn to be read! But the other books look just as good, I feel the need to visit the bookshop...
The hunger games is fantastic. I'm gonna die if I don't get tickets to the movie. XD
