Leaving Paradise by Simone Elkeles

This one I read in between test the last two days and I was determined to finish it today so I'm pretty happy. Always this day marks the half way point of my reading. Yes ladies and gentalman Librarians and dedicated readers, in just two short months I finished half my list and the plus is I did it before my birthday.

This compelling story follows two separate individuals who went though the same situation. Caleb Becker spent the past year in juvenile detention and Maggie Armstrong spent the last year in a hospital going though physical therapy, but what ties the two together is that he caused the accident. Now the two met again in their small town? What will happen? Did he really cause the accident?

I give this one 5 out of 5. I know I say all of them our my favorite but this one had me to tears with the struggle the two faced. I really felt a connection to the character's which for me is what sucks me into the book. They picked some great books and now I'll be reading Rooftop which wont take long to finish at all.

Every Yours,
Mandy
