Since You've Been Gone by Morgan Matson (4)

Before Sloane, Emily didn’t go to parties, she barely talked to guys, and she didn’t do anything crazy. Enter Sloane, social tornado and the best kind of best friend—someone who yanks you out of your shell.

But right before what should have been an epic summer, Sloane just…disappears. There’s just a random to-do list with thirteen bizarre tasks that Emily would never try. But what if they can lead her to Sloane?

Apple picking at night? Okay, easy enough.

Dance until dawn? Sure. Why not?

Kiss a stranger? Wait…what?

Getting through Sloane’s list will mean a lot of firsts, and with a whole summer ahead of her—and with the unexpected help of the handsome Frank Porter—who knows what she’ll find.

Go Skinny Dipping? Um…

REVIEW:
I ate this one up!
It was a sweet teen story, it made me laugh and it had the swooniest romance ever!! These two didn't know it was a romance in the beginning and that's part of what makes it incredible. The natural build-up, and believe me, it felt natural.
Every book I read by this author I feel is relatable and well written. She takes you through your emotions, with the story, and I do love those. Mostly, it was a quick and fun read.
YA fans, and fans of her previous books will love this too.

4.5/5

    This one sounds interesting to me. I like realistic YA fiction. I haven't heard of the author before so I might have to check out her work. Great post.

    What a nice review. I think it sounds good and I liked the idea of the list Sloane left behind.

Our heroes pull out all the stops to try and win the tournament, break the witch's hold on King Arthur, and find a way back to the present in this legendary story of Scooby Doo in King Arthur's Court. REVIEW: It was weird starting off with a He-Man lookalike, Thunder the Barabarian), until I realized a character from the film was watching the cartoon in the airplane. Still, it was kind of cool to reminice about two cartoons from my childhood. So many great actors bring the film to life! What a fun story it was too! Although
