Speak


Most Recently Read Book:

Speak

By Laurie Halse Anderson

Speak is about a girl who calls the police during a high school party one night after something very traumatic happens to her.  Everyone at the party is mad that she called the cops and she becomes an outcast during her first year of high school.  Speak is her story during that year.  I thought this was a very interesting book.  I had never read a book from this perspective.  It is definitely a serious book but I think it would be worthwhile for young adults to read this book to get an idea of what it might be like to deal with what she deals with.
