IMPORTANT NOTICE: As of September 2018, What's In It offers over 250 reviews of young adult books! While I am excited to offer you so many reviews, I have burned myself out on this genre. Despite some wonderful gems, the genre tends to be dark and spiritually draining. Because of this, I am no longer reviewing books on a regular basis, at least for a while. Instead, I will review books on request and seek more volunteers. If you would like a book reviewed, please contact me through my "Cheri's Corner" page. If it is the kind of book I review and I can obtain it through the library, I will post the review within three weeks of receiving it. This service is free with no strings attached. It is one small way I can serve my fellow parents and stand against the darkness that seeks to pervade the lives of our precious teens. If you are interested in reviewing a book, I would love to have you join me in this venture. Please visit the "How You Can Help" page. Thank you for visiting What's In It!

Why two review formats?As of June 2015, my review format has changed to an essay style. Though the new format will lack the precise detail of the old one, it will allow reviewers to accelerate the review process and thus cover more books.
