Customer Reviews

read this reveiw.....

i liked this book but it is sucha stereo type. So there is this girl called april and when she was a bay she got put in a dustbin...big woop. She had lots of foster mums the first one went a little bit crazy....My favourite character is gina you will ind out what happened to her dont worry. So, april runs away from home but only for the day. it is her birthday and she feels that she needs to trace her past? i thought this book was a good read for the first 7 chapters but then it got rubish!Celeste xxxxxxxxxxxxxx

Unforgettable

Certainly one of the best novels I have read in ages. I came across this author when a friend recommended The Lottie Project to me in sixth grade. When I went to England recently (Where Ms. Wilson is immenssly popular) I picked up this book and I read it in one four-hour sitting. It's that mesmerizing. You should certainly buy this book. It's definitely worthwhile.
