I enjoy reading teen/young adult novels because for me, it sort of puts my life in perspective. Also, I want to know what my kids are reading and what their friends are reading. The best discussions for me are talking to my kids about books and the way ...

As a busy mom of two preteens (10 and 12), I entered the Twilight zone later than most. A young co-worker of mine suggested that my daughter might want to read the popular Twilight series by Stephenie Meyer when she reached middle ...

Cons: Like a 13-year-old's diary, but much worse.

A few weeks ago I noticed that my fifteen-year-old daughter had abandoned her computer and was buried in a book. Now, this is not completely unusual as she does go through spells of voracious reading (a trait she inherited from me). Still, it was ...
