"Monster High"

 Written by Lisi Harrison
Merston High to Monster High in less than one school year? The book Monster High focuses primarily on  two girls. Melody, a "normal" girl, has just moved to Salem because of her asthma. Melody falls for her cute geek neighbor, Jackson. Then, there's Frankie, who was just made fifteen days ago by her parents. Yes, I said made. She and her parents are monsters. They hide it well, though,as do all the other monsters in Salem. The "normies"-- what monsters call real people-- don't know they live among monsters. Frankie falls for Brett, a "normie". What will happen when Melody finds out her crush is a monster? What will happen when Frankie decides she doesn't want to hide who she really is anymore? At the end of the book, the school throws a "monster mash", a school dance to show the monsters they aren't afraid of them. This is when Frankie comes out, and the storyline shifts. That's probably my favorite part of the book. To me the main idea is that it doesn't matter how you look on the outside, the only thing that matters is what's on the inside. If you like paranormal romance, I recommend you read this book.
My rating:  6.5/10. The book was good but it didn't keep me interested. I could put the book down and not go back to it for a couple hours.
