She after she finds out her grandmother pass away she walks away until she meets her younger brother's new piano teacher and the push from him has her steping back up to the piano to play. Although she loves to play will thing turn out to be like it was before, or will she but a stop to it this book touch on the struggle within a controlling family a person choice what you love and long with the friends in your life. All of this is wrapped around change how a person change over time how this in your life change the way you fill about things. this story didn't make me mad the way her grandfather was along with her mother all cold to Lucy and throw it in her face she walked away from the piano. along with her best friend selfishness about the problems in her life. not wanting to know any ones else thinking because there weren't like her they weren't that bad. close doors hide a lot i speck from personal experience. over all i give this book 4 out of 5 stars. Sara Zarr knows how to goes in to the phyic of a young person and speak the truth though there voice

Book Review: Sweethearts

Today's book review is over Sweethearts by Sara Zarr. This a sweet book with a darker undertone. Jenifer thinks her childhood best friend is dead until one day the truth comes out about thing and he right there in front of her helping her member things and face things in her life. Now i could relate to Jenifer I was the girl that didn't have to many friends at a younger age. in high school it didn't really change now did i have people to sit with during lunch yes but i kept to my self a lot of time when i had free time during school. i also know what it like a little bit to live in the type of house Jenifer friend grew up in abuse no matter the type is harmful and t a cycle that need to be broken someone hurting you or controlling you get out now and don't go back they will never change. over all with that not side ii give this book 5 stars out of 5 stars even though it not a new fave it still have a message that close to my heart.
