LitPick Review
In The Properties of Water Lace is faced with something that she grew up with, loved, and was like second nature to her: swimming. Lace's older sister, Marni, was in a swimming accident. And just to make things worse than they all ready are, her mom is spending the entire summer with Marni at the hospital. This means that the mysterious Wilma Dodge has taken over the house with her wonderful food and a creepy green suitcase. Lace is filled with so many emotions and challenges that she just can't take it anymore. So Lace ends up at the pool with her best friend Bethany; not swimming, but eyeing the beautiful and talented Sully Tanner. As the summer moves on, Lace and Bethany discover more than they ever wanted to now.
Opinion:
I really enjoyed reading The Properties of Water. I liked the format of the chapters a lot. But I also thought that the story moved too fast and that we didn't know a lot of information that was needed. It could have been a lot longer of a book too. In the end though, the story was very good and the mystery of it all was very entertaining. I would recommend this book to one of my friends.
