Hello all! My name is Emily and I am 17-years-old. My passion for books started when I was in middle school and since then they have been a major part of my life. Any one of my friends and family will tell you they always see me with a book in my hand. When I am not obsessing over fictional characters (especially Will Herondale), I like to hang out with friends and watch my favorite shows on Netflix. 

Top Five Favorite Books:
1. The Infernal Devices trilogy by Cassandra Clare
2. The A Court of Thorns and Roses trilogy by Sarah J. Maas
3. THE GREAT GATSBY by F. Scott Fitzgerald
4. The Mortal Instruments series by Cassandra Clare
5. WE WERE LIARS by E. Lockhart

The Opposite of Here

by Tara Altebrando - Fiction, Mystery, Suspense, Thriller

Natalie's parents are taking her and her three best friends on a cruise for her 17th birthday. But it's only been a few short months since Natalie's boyfriend died in a tragic accident, and she wants to be anywhere but here. Then she meets a guy on the first night and sparks fly. After a moonlit conversation, Natalie pops down to her cabin to get her swimsuit. But when she returns, he's gone. Why do her friends think she's crazy for wanting to make sure he's okay? Also, why do they seem to be hiding something from her? And how can she find him when she doesn't even know his name? Most importantly, why is the captain on the intercom announcing the urgent need for a headcount?
