Later, the head guard Paul Edgecomb discovers Coffey's secret capabilities and he is able to change the lives of everyone involved with the prison. I really enjoyed this book because it had a range of very interesting characters. Without veering off too much from the plot, the reader is introduced to each character's backstory in detail, and I find it important to feel like you're on a personal level with the characters you're reading about.

When she falls in love with the new next door neighbor named Olly, her life is completely changed forever, as she begins to question her purpose in life if she can never see the world and its beauty. I really loved this book because I was going through a really dark time in my life and the messages it sent through Maddy's thoughts really related to me and made me think about all the beauty around me, so it really changed the way I perceived things.

The Greek God Apollo has been thrown from Olympus to be punished in the mortal form of a teenage boy named Lester Papadopoulos. This story follows Apollo and Meg McCaffrey, his demigod sidekick's, journey to help Apollo become a God once again. I loved reading this book because I enjoy Rick Riordan's writing style, and I love the fast paced adventures and battles, as well as the complex and loveable characters that he created within this story.

This book is definitely one of my favorites that I've ever read -- it's an extremely vulgar (mostly language-wise), complicated, dark comedy, so it's not everyone's cup of tea, but the story is so interesting and it feels amazing to figure out what's happening alongside the characters. The book is bizarre, weird, and perfect in every way.
