Little Secrets- Playing with fire.
By: Emily Blake
Genre: Fiction
Pages: 149

This book was about a girl named Alison. Her mother Helen and her were fighting and then all of a sudden her mother got arrested. She got very scared. The only person she could call was Kelly her best friend. When she called her friend she answered. But what she didn’t know was that her friend was a backstabber. Her boyfriend got stolen by Kelly. Kelly was a trouble maker. Will her mother get out of jail? Will she get revenge? You will have to find out by reading this book.

I think other people should read this book because it teaches people how friendships could be. Also how friends could backstab you and you could get revenge. I really liked this book because I could really relate to the book and the problems of backstabbing which I had a lot of in 6th grade. Maybe people who read this book can relate to it just like I did.
