Opinion:
This book was a realistic fiction and mystery story. The plot has several twists and turns which kept me reading. The book was very well written and took me by surprise several times. The author did a good job telling the story in third person. You could really understand what was going through Kendal's head . I felt like I could imagine Kendal as a person and relate to her. I would recommend this book to people who like mystery and realistic fiction. For ages 13 and up.
