Bookworm

As you all know, I am the biggest, fattest bookworm ever. There may be a few exceptions though. But anyway, I have so many books I want to read. My mom went to the library, and she found this little brochure thing and it has fantasy books listed for teens. So, what I will do, is I will list all the books that I want to read, the author, and a little description that they have listed. Okay, ready??? I thought you were.
