11 Birthdays by Wendy Mass

    This book is so good! I read this book at the end of last school year and through the summer and I loved it! This book is very interesting and fun! I am so glad that my eleventh birthday did not keep repeating itself! This book is about bringing 2 friends back together after not speaking to each other for a year with a crazy twist and the friends find they need each other to get out of the same birthday that repeats itself over and over again!

    This would make my top ten list so far... It was meant for younger audiences (obviously for kids around 11) but I still loved it!
