Secrets of My Suburban Life

Jacalyn Boggs

With a blurb starting off with, "Everything changed for Lauren ("Ren") after Harry Potter killer her mom" how could you go wrong? 

Oh let me count the ways.

The characters are well written... for shallow teenagers.

The plot was beyond simple. Kudos to the writer for putting it out there, though. It is a scary thing that needs mentioning - one's safety on the internet. 

It was not very far into the book before I figured out the "who dun it" of this book and I kept telling the main character to stop being stupid and see it for herself.

The topic is one of great importance. Maybe a young adult just entering the online world of social websites might gain from reading this book. Maybe that young adult might find the mystery... well... a mytersy as opposed to blatantly obvious.
