This book is about a shy girl in a small town living a broke style life. The conflict in this book is about a murder that happened in town and for so long it goes unsolved and can’t figure out the culprit.
This book gives you a perspective of how it would be like living with a poor family and don’t have much to live off of. It also shows how a person’s spirit for family can go so far to protect one another. The only time it feels like they are safe is when they are together doing things as siblings.
This book is really suspenseful and for some it might be nerve racking. Because the main character and the other characters in the book really live with a life threatening lifestyle. For example, Hope has gotten followed, threatened, and chased throughout the story of the book. She also gets involved with a murder case which her brother is accused of.
I think the theme of the book is about the need to give extra care to the voices of the disabled. Because this boy who was accused of murder couldn’t speak, he also had a fidgeting problem that could lose control sometimes. So when he was accused of murder, he couldn’t defend himself in any way and was wrongfully accused of murder.
I recommend this book because it does a good job of making you want to flip the next page because you have to know what happens next and it’s super suspenseful so it keeps you more interested in what happens. Although, sometimes the suspense just isn’t enough, they contribute to the theme by still letting the reader know and learn about the characters and their lives. So, if you want to read a book that has a lot of suspense and surprises, this would be a wonderful book for you to read.… (altro)
