Page Turner

The book Waiting by Carol Lynch Williams. Was the first book in a very long time I can honestly say I loved. This book is kind of long its 335 pages but i finished it in one day. It is a n absolute page turner. I could not put it down. The story is amazing, the author does a great job of not confusing the reader. Like some of the authors I have read,  I will get half way though the book and be so lost.  You can really picture this book  it was alomst like I was watching a movie.

NOW ON TO THE BOOK......
This book is sort of sad, but its amazing. Its about this girl who lost her brother not to long ago. She has to learn how to cope with it. She is tring to move on but she can't because her mom blames her for what happen.
A little from the book
" Shut up." Mom's voice is a wisper.
"I called for you and you said he's just thowing a tantrum, and I said 'Help me, something's wrong in there.'And by the time you came with the key,it was too late.He wasn't alive anymore."
"Shut up!"
" If you would have listened! If you would have helped."
"Shut up!"
"You needed someone to blame and you chose me."
"Shut up!"
This little section came from the book Waiting by Carol Lynch Williams on page 315.
Up to this point her mom blamed her for what happened to him. Her mom has not talked to her for months. The family has fallen apart. Her bother was very well liked at the school. She is sick of everyone asking her are you okay and saying I'm sorry for your lost. She becomes a stronger person she falles in love again. Makes new friends, and comes to relizing that it was not her fault.

I would recommend this book to anyone who likes a good story.
