Reviews
On Sep 8 2016, a reader said:
I'd say it's a good book for people 16 and up. I choose 16 because there's little to no adult content involved in the book. And also the language and vocabulary used in the book as well. Very short book;only around 90 pages. Very simple, easy read, not so complex to the point that it starts to get confusing and hard to comprehend.
Alot of things happen to the main character and her friend and what they go through is very interesting. A little confused in the beginning, but that was just my experience. Only because I didn't know what was going on until I kept reading then I began to understand. Very strong since of the culture and in this book and the cultural references.
