Fever by Mary Beth Keane
An excellent book. It is the fictionalized account of Typhoid Mary. In the classification of Historical Fiction, this story provides much background on the disease, the time period, her relations ship with her live-in, drunk boyfriend and the people who surrounded her every day. For avid readers interested in a fictionalized biography.

Au Revoir Crazy European Chick by Joe Schreiber
Perry gets caught up in a wild adventure (think Die Hard or any James Bond movie) with the 'foreign exchange student' they've been hosting. Jaguars, BMWs, car chases, thugs, people dieing, bombs exploding, people being shot. You name it, you've got it.

Food, girls and other things I can't have by Allen Zadoff
Imagine being horribly overweight but still having to participate in gym. Your legs are the size of elephant trunks and you can barely fit into your 3XL shorts. Worse yet, the girl you like takes the same class. You kick the soccer ball, lose your balance but to your utter humiliation, you also lose your shorts! Such is the life of Andrew. To learn more about his life, read the book. I'd give it 4 of 5 stars.

Wintergirls by Laurie Halse Anderson
This book really showed the complications and thoughts of a young girl suffering from anorexia. Her best friend, Cassie, was also a victim but she died as a result of complications of bulimia. Disturbing but truthful.
