Book...Of...The...Week...


Hey Peoples!

You had to see this coming! You didn't? You fools! lol I got new books for Christmas...You had to see a new BOTW coming!!! lol

Well this time it's a drama and not the usual fun funny ones.

"Dancing Naked" by Shelley Hrdlitschka (No, that's not a typo).

Yes, I know it sounds bad, but it's not (and I will explain in a minute what Dancing Naked means...I but you a million bucks it's not what you think it means).

The book is about pregnant 16 year old Kia. And her struggle with a pig-headed ex-boyfriend and whether she sound have an abortion, keep "peanut" (As she nicknames her baby), or give her up for adoption. She gets *pinches fingers together* this close to having an abortion when she comes to her senses and runs out....And let's just say....Derek (The baby's father) isn't too pleased....You can tell this when he tries to run her over with his car.

OK, now to the Dancing Naked part. Dancing Naked means to put yourself out there and be who you are and not caring what other people see. Kia has an old friend named Grace who tells her about Dancing Naked...She said that when she was Kia's age she wanted to Dance Naked but her head told her not to...But now that she's old, her head wants to but her body says no. See...Told you it isn't what you thought it was!

And that concludes your book of the week pick!
