New Book

Hello,

I am reading a new book called The Weight of Silence by Heather Gudenkauf. It is about two little girls that go missing in the middle of the night. The interesting thing is that one of the girls doesn’t talk. Callie, who is about 7 years old stopped talking when she was 4 years old. Her best friend Petra is her communicator. They can pretty much read each other’s minds.

 Last night when I was reading this book it was hard to put down because it is so intense. This is one of those books that each chapter is written from the perspective from a different character. Sometimes this can be confusing but I think that it was the right choice for this book. One thing that I noticed was that all of the characters have really interesting names. Here are some examples: Fielda, Petra, Griff, Antonia, Callie. That is just something that I noticed when I was reading. At the point that I am at in this book it is kind of hard to imagine because of the content. So if you have a problem with things that aren’t “nice and happy” then I wouldn’t recommend this book for you.

That is just an update on where I am with reading this book, I will let you know if I like the ending. Thanks for reading
