This book is good for anyone ages 14-18. Written by Debra Garfinkle, who is also the author of The Band: Trading Guys. The Band: Holding On is the second book following the band Amber Road. I read this one without reading the first one and had no problems, so if you didn’t read the first one, you won’t be too lost in this one. It is a quick read and keeps your attention throughout the entire book.
The rock band Amber Road is hoping to make it big but will conflict within the group keep them down? Mark, the founder of the band dumped band mate Sienna to date lead singer Lily and it puts a little strain on the band. Sienna is forced to deal with Lily and Mark and her best friend Tracie, who is always causing drama and needing Sienna to save her from everything. But when Sienna and Tracie’s ex, Carter, fall for each other will it be the end of their friendship?
The book mixes relationship drama with the drama and sacrifices required to make it big in the music industry. You can read as Amber Road struggles to make peace within the band and struggle to do what it takes to make it into the music business. The book is a decent read and I would suggest it to anyone looking for something quick and entertaining to read.
This book is great for anyone between the ages of 16-20. Written by Liza Conrad, author of High School Bites, the book mixes teenage drama with the world of illegal high-stakes poker.

When her friend Dack looses more than he could afford in an illegal poker game, Lula comes to the rescue and wins it all back in another illegal game. Unfortunately, there end up being some very major consequences.
This book has just enough poker terminology to make it interesting, but thankfully not enough to make it annoying. Its a great story about friendship and looking out for your loved ones. Its a relatively fast read and very enjoyable and will keep you entertained with every turn of the page! It’s definitely a great read!
