THE BOOK MUNCHER is the reviewing alias of a prolific teen reader. She is guilty of several overflowing bookshelves and is known at her local post office as the "girl who loves to read." Her literary diet is mostly dedicated to the young adult fiction genre but has been known to occasionally stray into middle grade or adult categories. She is a firm believer that reading and literacy are as essential to modern life as physical sustenance, that fiction is often truer than nonfiction, and that stories and words have the power to change the world.
Through TBM first and foremost considers herself a bibliophile, she is also (depending on her mood) a nerd (not the candy, although it is good), rockaholic, chocolate addict (trying to reform), and fashionista (even though she refuses to match her socks). In her spare time, when not reading, she can be found attempting to finish one of the many novels she's started writing, looking for new music to put on her iPod, taking in her jeans to make them even skinnier, or trying to decipher HTML coding or whatever it's called.
If books were cookies, TBM would be a green colored Cookie Monster.

Aden Stone wishes he was just a normal guy. Instead, he's spent the majority of his life shuffled in and out of various foster homes and mental institutions, all because for some reason, he's got four souls living inside him aside from his own. Aden doesn't know how they got there or how to get rid of them, so in the meantime, he just has to deal with four distinct voices constantly babbling inside his head and the side effects of each soul's unique ability, to time travel, predict the future, raise the dead, or possess other people. When Aden moves to Crossroads, Oklahoma, it's like brand new start for him, although not without its own complications. Aden finds himself with an unusual set… Read more

The last day Charlie West can remember was a perfectly normal day. He was a regular high school kid doing regular things like his schoolwork, practicing karate, chatting with his friends, and getting nervous around the girl of his dreams. He was a good kid who listened to his parents, prayed, treated girls with respect, and loved his country. But now, Charlie has just woken up in a living nightmare. He's strapped to a chair and covered in his own blood and bruises. Someone outside his torture chamber just ordered his death. Charlie has no idea where he is or how he got there. He doesn't know why he's so beaten up and supposed to be killed. And more importantly, he has no idea how he's going… Read more
