Title: Speak Author: Laurie Halse Anderson Genre: Realistic Fiction Name: Shannon Team: 7h Teacher: Mrs. Passini Rating: 4 Stars Review:The main character in this is Melinda Sordina. The setting takes place at a auditorium. The conflict was that she had a secret. Melinda Sardinia went to a party, but when she got there, no one talked to her and people she didn’t know didn’t talk to her. They did that because she called the cops at one party so no one wants to talk to her. She wanted them to get busted. Melinda had a secret that happened at the party. I think that my friends will enjoy this book. I really enjoyed this book. This book has a lot of interesting facts in it. |
