Soccer Chick Rules by Dawn Fitzgerald.

This was a really good book. It was relatable and realistic but wasn't as good as the other books I've read. The book is about a girl named Tess who loves soccer. The only reason she goes to school is for soccer, but they are thinking of getting rid of the levy, which provides the sports teams, so Tess is willing to do anything to get the levy to stay.

Miracle on 49th Street by Mike Lupica.

This is the best book in the world. I loved it. The best book I've ever read and should be read. It about a girl whose name is Molly, who lived in London her whole life and is now 12 when her mom died of cancer. Before she died she told her daughter, Molly, the truth about her father. She said that he is Josh Cameron, the most famous basketball player in the U.S. And when she goes to the U.S. she sets out to find her father and prove to him that she is who she said she is.

So her friend, Kerry, cuts out ten pictures of guys that are single and faces them upside down, then Quinn picks three pictures and has to ask out all three guys.
