The Diary
by S.L. Weiss
Ana and her best friend Sophie are high school freshman who stumble upon a new store in the town, Mystic Wonders, which sells crystals, occult items, clothing, and a diary that Ana purchases. Ana notices that the things she writes in the diary start to come true some with terrible consequences. She believes that she can make it do good things for her school, but they never turn out as she writes them. Sophie and their friend Jeremy try to get Ana to get rid of the diary, but will that cause one of them to get hurt or worse?
The concept of a magical diary that makes what you write in it come true, is intriguing. Taking it to the next level with the diary changing those things to make bad things happen makes for a good fantasy book for young adult readers; however, this book is very simply written and could have been more imaginative in my opinion. There could have been some scarier elements especially when dealing with an evil diary. YA readers could have handled it.
This was a very easy read and moved quickly though.
