What are you reading?

  You Against Me - Jenny Downham

I could not put this book down and felt incredibly attached to the characters! A great read with some very gritty content... I loved the two strories that interwove with one another, two different relationships and the stark contrast between them.

'...If someone hurts your sister and you’re any kind of man, you seek revenge, right? If your brother’s accused of a terrible crime but says he didn’t do it, you defend him, don’t you?

When Mikey’s sister claims a boy assaulted her, his world begins to fall apart. When Ellie’s brother is charged with the offence, her world begins to unravel. When Mikey and Ellie meet, two worlds collide. This is a brave and unflinching novel from the bestselling author of Before I Die. It’s a book about loyalty and the choices that come with it. But above all it’s a book about love...'

An incredibly thought provoking book and one that I think should be read and shared.
