Recommended Reads From Your Friends at SMS:
"Princess in Training by Meg Cabot is a great book! I love it!" - Cadence
"There are two books that I really liked and enjoyed over the summer. One of Us is Lying and One of Us is Next by Karen McManus. They were both really exciting and mysterious. I loved how they planned out their plans to find out the murder. I liked how in the book there were different perspectives of different people and how in depth they were. They were really fascinating books overall." - Izabel
