About this listen
What if you find your soul mate...and he’s your best friend’s boyfriend?
Best friends Lani and Erin couldn’t be more different. Lani’s reserved and thoughtful; Erin’s bubbly and outgoing. Lani likes to do her own thing; Erin prefers an entourage. There’s no possible way they could be interested in the same guy. So when Erin starts dating Jason, Lani can’t believe she feels such a deep connection with him—and it may be mutual. The more Lani fights it, the more certain she feels that it’s her fate to be with Jason. But what do you do when the love of your life is the one person you can’t have?

Tom Felton’s adolescence was anything but ordinary. His early rise to fame in beloved films like The Borrowers catapulted him into the limelight, but nothing could prepare him for what was to come after he landed the iconic role of the Draco Malfoy, the bleached blonde villain of the Harry Potter movies. For the next ten years, he was at the center of a huge pop culture phenomenon and yet, in between filming, he would go back to being a normal teenager trying to fit into a normal school. Speaking with great candor and his signature humor, Tom shares his experience.

It begins as an assignment for English class: Write a letter to a dead person. Laurel chooses Kurt Cobain because her sister, May, loved him. And he died young, just like May. Soon, Laurel has a notebook full of letters to the dead - to people like Janis Joplin, Heath Ledger, Amelia Earhart, and Amy Winehouse - though she never gives a single one of them to her teacher. She writes about starting high school, navigating the choppy waters of new friendships, learning to live with her splintering family, falling in love for the first time, and, most important, trying to grieve for May.

In middle school, words aren't just words. They can be weapons. They can be gifts. The right words can win you friends or make you enemies. They can come back to haunt you. Sometimes they can change things forever. When cell phones are banned at Branton Middle School, Frost and his friends Deedee, Wolf, and Bench come up with a new way to communicate: leaving sticky notes for each other all around the school. It catches on, and soon all the kids in school are leaving notes - though for every kind and friendly one, there is a cutting and cruel one as well.

Bounce bounce bounce!
SHe bounced from the actual story to non sense faster then you could even tell that she finally started telling the actual story you paid for. This story felt in complete.....one minute she would be talking about something that would.should be in the story next she is rambling on something that is pretty much pointless but flows threw the whole story. It almost like the back story ( fate, saving the planet) was more important then the actual romance part of the book. And the way she writes these supposed young adults they sound like they should be in middle school not the last year of high school. What happen to she said? no no its and she goes or he goes instead of ever using the word SAID! Hello there is nothing wrong with that word. I normaly like a lot of the teen/YA books but this one was written WAY to childish for my taste. If it wasn't for the gay best friend that some mom/dads would have an issue with then I would say this book would be best suited for the preteen readers.
The performance was good, she has a good voice for a teen book so I will listen to other books she has read but as for as the writer sorry I will not be investing any more money into her.
