Hurricane Child by Kheryn Callender, 214 pages
“Born on Water Island
in the Virgin Islands during a hurricane, which is considered bad luck,
twelve-year-old Caroline falls in love with another girl--and together they set
out in a hurricane to find Caroline's missing mother.” This book was hard to read for me. The topic was a little tough, first of all,
and the characters just didn’t hold my interest as much as I want. I really
disliked some of them too. I liked the
story and it was executed fairly well, but it moved a little slowly in
parts. Overall, I’m not sure that I
would seek out other books by the author or recommend this to kids, but I can’t
say that I’m sorry that I read it.
