Crash Into Me by Albert Borris
Ellen Hopkins, bestselling author of Crank says, "An exceptional first novel."From Amazon.com:
I was a little iffy to read this book at first but once I started I barley put it down.
Four teenagers meet online, two know each other in real life, and all plan to kill themselves. All agree to meet and drive across country to a celebrity grave they have chosen who committed suicide, the catch? At the end of the trip in Death Valley, they all kill themselves.
During the trip, each learn more about each other and some even have second thoughts about dying and truths come out.
I liked how there really are no chapters but one continuous chapter. Each basically have a top ten list. Top ten lists of random things, what they want to do before they die, ECT.

Battle of the Books Results
The 2009 Battle of the Books was held last night at Silver Lake College. The Two Rivers team and the New Holstein Team joined forces to become New Rivers (or was that Two Holsteins?) and squeaked out a third place victory! They missed second place by only 1 point and the final battle went back and forth the entire game.
Congratulations to Chilton for the back to back championship!
All I can say is, wait til next year!

A Word From TAB President Nick M.
It would seem that summer is at last closing. Although my days of total freedom are ending, I am actually excited to go back. it is my first year of high school. I am trying to get in a Japanese class but the teachers can't find a teacher yet. It is going to be one of those long distance classes.
I hope they can find a teacher. I really want to be a video game designer and all of the jobs are over in Japan, so taking that class seems like the obvious choice. I suppose that is all I can possibly say at the moment, so I guess I'll see you later.

A Word From TAB President Nick M.
Finally, summer. For hundreds of students in our area, it means 3 months of total freedom. I, like so many others, have absolutely no plans for the summer. I will most likely spend my time on the Internet with my friends. I have almost nothing to do otherwise. I can sometimes come to the library and log on to the wi-fi on my DS. It's going to be a fun, dull summer.

A Word From TAB President Nick M.
Hey again everyone, sorry about the delay but I've been crazy busy with my class Washington DC trip. Boy is that an amazing city! We spent 3 days exploring the city, and I tell you that is one of my favorite places. We saw it all. The Jefferson, Lincoln and Washington Monuments. We went to the top of the Washington Monument and saw the city from above. We even went into the Capitol Building. On one of our last days, we saw the white house and as we were all taking pictures Michelle Obama, her kid, and the family dog came out onto the lawn. We had to leave the sidewalk, but my science teacher (a photographer) got an excellent picture. It was great. I would suggest anyone go there without hesitation.
TAB Executive Board Elected
Last night at the Teen Advisory Board Meeting, we elected our Treasurer and Secretary.
Our Executive Board is as follows:
President: Nick M.
Vice President: Jack L.
Secretary: Olivia L.
Treasurer: Sam C.
We are not electing a Friends of the Library Representative at this point because the library's Friends Group does not currently meet on a regular basis. As soon as it does, that position will also open up.
