Twigs

Twigs is a charming book about a small girl and the struggles she faces in life. This book has great characters and a plot that will make you laugh and tear up, sometimes even on the same page. The whole time I read this story I praised Formento on the world she surrounded me in. I couldn't help but cheer for Twigs- or I mean Madeline- the whole time I was reading. This may stem from the fact that I too am never going to be five foot, or look like I really am eighteen and going into college, however I think it is really because Formento made me connect to the characters. I recommend this book to everyone. I will definitely be telling everyone I know about this book and how wonderful it is. Happy Reading!

Touch

Touch is a book about a boy named Ethan who just wants to impress his dad. His dad had shown him hacks and how to do other things with technology. However recently he has been spending a lot of time with Ethan's step sister Haley. When Haley accuses Ethan's father of molesting her, he doesn't want to believe it. One day though, Ethan finds something shocking on his fathers old computer.

This book captivated me so much. I could not take my eyes off of it. I had to stop reading it when I went to work, but the whole time I was there I was thinking about how the plot was going to be laid out. When and exactly how Ethan makes his discovery. Touch made me laugh at some parts, cry at others, as well as cringe and become a bit angry. Touch is a great read. If you are looking for a book to read I would definitely recommend picking this up and giving it a go.

 Happy reading!
