A Teen's Point of View
Published by Thriftbooks.com User , 18 years ago
This is a really good book. It's got an unexpected twist and the end is exciting. I was not expecting to like this book, because the blurb on the back totally misrepresents this story, but I read it anyway and was pleasantly surprised.
