The kids are home from school and my niece is a huge reader. The books in the picture above are what she bought for her birthday. Because she reads so much it can be hard to keep up with what she's reading. If you have a teen like this in your family, here are 5 of June's most popular young adult titles that they may have already read! ~ Donna

Fantastic Worldbuilding: Planet Song by T. K. Boomer
by MK French
The Fahr are an ancient and long-lived race of aquatic aliens. Songs are like drugs, and recordings of the sounds animals make are strictly controlled. It's a lucrative business to bring new songs to their planet. A song that was found on a scanning mission was so addictive and potentially lethal that high ranking religious, political, military and company Fahr are interested in getting new recordings and taking a breeding population back with them. Usually, planets that they found the animal on are too primitive to really fight back, and this one is no different: Earth.

Fantastic Story: Come Sundown by Nora Roberts
by Susan Roberts
Nora Roberts never fails to entertain her readers. This book has all of her trademarks - beautiful women and handsome men, multi-generational family, great friendships and romance, in fact, three main romances. This one also adds suspense and a dual timeline that all connects at the end.

Graphic Novel: The Lost Boys of West Abbey #MondayBlogs
by MK French
In The Lost Boys of West Abbey (Lady Mechanika Volume 3), Lady Mechanika is back in London with Winifred Thomsen and Archie Lewis and hears about mechanical experiments and murder in West Abbey. Of course, she takes in interest in the case and assists Inspector Singh in the investigations. Orphan boys have gone missing, and five bodies were found in an abandoned location along with mechanical toys. It seems to bring up memories for Lady Mechanika, who still doesn't know anything about her origins. It soon becomes evident that someone is experimenting with creating a golem, and Mechanika and Singh have to stop it.
