Summer Reading

I rate Speechless by Hannah Harrington an all out 10. Speechless is about a girl, Chelsea Knot, who  is known to be one of the most popular girls at  Grand Lakes High School, besides her best firend Kristen Couteau of course. But one mistake at Kristen's big New Year's Eve party changes her life at high school drastically. But throughout the difficulty of fitting in, she soon realizes that it doesn't matter what you look like or who your friends are. All that matters is that you appreciate what you look like and your friends are real friends who will always have your back and support you.
