Dear Ms. Cartwright,
I’m reading Never Mind! by Avi and Rachel Vail. Edward and his twin sister Meg are so different, the only thing they have in common is that they are twins. Meg made a huge mistake by lying to her friend Kimberly about her brother, just to get herself into The High Achievers Club and Kim’s party. It was a huge mistake because she told Kim that he was a rock star named Ted in a band called Never Mind. I think Meg was a jerk to Ed because she lied about him, to his face! Meg didn’t know, but Ed was listening in on her phone call when she was lying!
I think the way the author chose to write the book was really cool. The chapters are alternating between each twin. So if you only read every other chapter you could still understand the story (but you wouldn’t get both sides of it)!
Both sides of the story are awesome, but my favorite was Edward’s. Even though Meg never told him about the party, he was in the middle of it all! Ed had to get together a band, and perfect it in less than a week! They didn’t manage to perfect the band, but at least they had fun! Actually, the band stunk! A neighbor called the police when they played! Ed’s side was very funny, I really liked it!
By the end of the book Ed and Meg where closer than ever! I loved this book so much! Anyone would like this book! Since the book is in the POV of two characters, it’s not specific to one group of people.
Sincerely,
Carley

Dear Carley,
ReplyDeleteMy first letter to you didn't post, so I'm going to try again. I am amazed at how well you talked about the different points of view in that book. I have been thinking about how the authors must have had to use a different "voice" for each character so that you did't get confused. I wonder if that is why there are two authors? That would make sense. I have also been thinking about the fact that they both sort of did something wrong. Edward should not have been listening to her private conversation and she should not have been making stuff up. I am interested in taking a look at this book though. I really like the book Poppy, and it is by Avi, too. I can't wait to see what you read next. You find the neatest books!
