Well, That Was Awkward is one of the best books I've read in awhile. I received it as part of the Advanced Reading program, and this review is based on uncorrected text. Well, That Was Awkward stars Gracie, a thirteen-but-almost-fourteen year old girl whose sister Bret died before she was born. She desperately wants a tortoise, loves bagels, and most importantly, her best friend, Sienna, who totally deserves it, is liked by Gracie's secret crush, AJ. Not that Gracie isn't happy for Sienna. She totally is. Sienna's sporty and awesome and lovable, she and AJ are perfect for each other. Right? And what about Emmet, Gracie's long-time guy best friend. He can't possibly like-like her. Never. Gonna. Happen. Right? I loved this book; and I love Gracie because I feel like I am Gracie. The best thing about her is how relatable I feel to her, as if I'm in her shoes and I've gone through every awkward struggle. When Gracie's in trouble I feel guilty. When she cries I want to cry with her. I couldn't put this book down until the last page, and I desperately need a sequel. Rachel has masterfully created one of my new favorite books, and I recommend this to all ages or anyone who has ever felt awkward, ever.

I would like to win this because I like to read anything I can get my hands on, and I do really love to read weird facts and then weird out my friends with gross or spooky facts. Um, yep, that's my reason. Thanks!

Interesting, but there are some problems with this. First, if Amazon gets permission for their drones to deliver to customers, what's stopping other companies from getting the same idea? It wouldn't be fair for just Amazon to get drones, and soon other companies would be pushing for drones of their own. The sky could end up filled with drones. It isn't a problem when you have just one drone in the sky, but what about when you have thousands, maybe even millions?

The Ahsoka in this book is not the same Ashoka as the one in the Clone Wars that we all know and love. But surviving a war, leaving the only family you know, and then hearing they've all been brutally slaughtered can change a person. As we begin this action-filled story, we find former Jedi padawan Ashoka Tano carving out a miserable existence on the remote planet Thabeska, posing as Ashla, a mechanic who works hard and doesn't ask questions. But when the empire reaches its hand to the remote Thabeska, Ahsoka fearfully runs. She finds an almost-home on Radaa, a non-exciting farming moon that seems obscure enough. Until the Imperials decide to land on the planet and take over, taking Ashoka by surprise. She is torn between revealing herself and pretending to be Ashla. She and her new family must decide whether to rebel or to watch as everything and everyone they love is destroyed. After reading this book, I don't feel like it can stand on its own. I would love to see it become a series, like some of the other Star Wars series I've read. Star Wars: Ashoka didn't lack any of the grit and harsh reality of how cruel the empire truly is, and I liked it for that. This book was a really interesting read that I recommend to all Star Wars fans!
