#SpringIntoReading Day 12: Over and above the main conflict that the two girls here need to resolve amongst themselves, we are also taken to the world of teenagers – particularly girls with their #cliques, unspoken pacts of exclusivity, and the ultimate challenge of going beyond appearances and ‘coolness‘ – to get to the real individual within. My review of this novel-in-verse here: https://wp.me/pDlzr-2qJ

I thought this book (about two girls who meet years after Darra‘s dad kidnaps Wren) would pack a punch but it came off as really bland.

It was an amazing book, written in a perspective a little girl whose mom car got stolen at the gas station with her inside. Great book will read again

This book is a short novel, written in verse from two different perspectives: that of Wren, a child hiding in a car that was stolen, and Darra, the child of the thief who stole the car. It shows how their lives intertwine through the years as they end up in the same camp together as teens. We hear all about Wren‘s side - but what about Darra‘s? The truth is a hidden “message” within the verse.

A kidnapping in a robbery gone wrong cause two 8 year old girls to be connected by a crime but do not meet until six years later. A chance encounter forces each to face the pain of memory and hope in forgiveness. Alternating viewpoints

Wren was kidnapped when she was eight--by Darra's father. Years later, they meet again at summer camp and recognize one another. Secrets they have been keeping for years might be revealed, so they have to figure out how to interact with one another. (Also, gorgeous cover art.)
