LitPick Review
Mind Over Bullies has two themes running through the book: One is a counterfeiting scheme and the other is bullying. It is a book about teenager Margo Rios and how she handles both problems.
Margo has two friends, one of whom tells her a secret. When the secret is suddenly made public, Margo gets blamed, and starts being bullied as a result. At the same time, Margo and her newfound friends, the MOB, start investigating the counterfeiting operation in their city. This story is about more than Margo, though. It's about other teens, as well.
Can Margo solve her problems? Can the MOB find the leader of the counterfeiting ring? As friendship ties are being tested, will friendship prevail? Find out in this book!
Opinion:
Mind Over Bullies was a great book and was very exciting! The descriptions of the characters were rich and vivid; for example, one excerpt read, "Margo Rios was pretty, smart, fit, popular, and a firecracker who could be a bit of a jerk sometimes."
The story had twists and turns that kept me guessing what would happen next. If a second book in the series is written, I would love to read it. I would recommend this book for ages 12 and up, because of some explicit language and the use of more mature themes.
