Olive's Ocean

Full Review

Dear Diary,

Her name was Olive. She wasn't liked much at school. Mysterious and shy, she tended to keep to herself. All she ever wanted was to be my friend. And now she's dead. All I think about now is Olive. She manages to slip her way into every part of my mind. I wish I could have treated her better. I wish I could have given her a chance. I feel terrible, even though the accident was not my fault. Why am I feeling this guilt? Me and the family are taking a trip to the ocean. Maybe there I can escape. Or will it make matters worse? We'll see...

Sincerely,
Martha

P.S.
This is a one of a kind book that will keep you grasping for more. Who can you really trust? Is it all a lie? Most teens can relate to the characters in Olives Ocean, a must read novel of 2009.
