This half term, fall in love with a book. Here are some suggestions from the Blackstone Library:

This Lullaby - Sarah Dessen

Time Travelling with a Hamster book coverRemy is a cynic when it comes to love. Let down by her absent musician dad and witness to her mother's four failed marriages, she doesn't intend ever to let anyone that close.

So when Dexter comes crashing into her life, why is it suddenly so hard for Remy to follow her own rules? He's everything she hates: messy, disorganised, impulsive and, worst of all, a musician like her absent father!

Wings - Aprilynne Pike

Wings - Aprilynne PikeAn extraordinary faerie tale of magic and mystery, romance and danger, described by Stephenie Meyer as "a remarkable debut".

Laurel is an ordinary fifteen year old high school girl. But something incredible is happening to her. She is changing.

Now Laurel is about to discover that a deep and powerful magic holds the key to her destiny.

Red Queen - Victoria Aveyard

Red Queen - Victoria AveyardThis is a world divided by blood - red or silver. The Reds are commoners, ruled by a Silver elite in possession of god-like superpowers. And to Mare Barrow, a seventeen year old Red girl from the poverty-stricken Stilts, it seems like nothing will ever change.

That is, until she finds herself working in the Silver Palace. Here, surrounded by the people she hates the most, Mare discovers that, despite her red blood, she possesses a deadly power of her own. One that threatens to destroy the balance of power.

Everything, Everything - Nicola Yoon

Everything, Everything - Nicola YoonMaddy is allergic to the world; stepping outside the sterile sanctuary of her home could kill her. But then Olly moves in next door. And just like that, Maddy realises there's more to life than just being alive.

You only get one chance at first love. And Maddy is ready to risk everything, everything to see where it leads.

"Powerful, lovely, heart-wrenching, and so absorbing I devoured it in one sitting" - Jennifer Niven, author of All the Bright Places.

The Fault In Our Stars - John Green

The Fault In Our Stars - John Green"I fell in love the way you fall asleep: slowly, then all at once."

Despite the tumour-shrinking medical miracle that has bought her a few years, Hazel has never been anything but terminal, her final chapter inscribed upon diagnosis. But when a gorgeous plot twist named Augustus Waters suddenly appears at Cancer Kid Support Group, Hazel's story is about to be completely rewritten.

Insightful, bold, irreverent and raw, The Fault In Our Stars is award-winning author John Green's most ambitious and heart breaking work yet, brilliantly exploring the funny, thrilling and tragic business of being alive and in love.
