WOW! Double WOW!! Glimpse by Carol Lynch Williamsis an awesome read about two sisters, Lizzie and Hope, who live with their mom. One day Lizzie tries to kill herself but doesn't go through with it and is taken to a mental hospital. Hope cannot figure out why and when Lizzie tells her to be careful, she is really confused. One day Hope finds out by listening to her mom talking to Lizzie about a terrible secret they share. The suspense about this secret builds all the way through! It is a hard book to put down. This is the third book I read by Carol Lynch Williams and is by far her best! It has a super ending too! I'm telling you to read this book, it is fantastic!Glimpse is one of the most unusual books I have ever read because the whole bookiis written in free verse!

I did read this. It was really good! It was my first novel in verse, and won me over to that particular means of expression!
ReplyDeleteIt's the first one in verse Gerard read too. I still haven't read a novel like that!
ReplyDeleteWhen I got it, I didn't realize it was in verse. (It was a tour book.) I groaned, but when I read it I absolutely LOVED it! LOL
