Monday’s Not Coming by Tiffany D. Jackson, 435 pages
Claudia’s best friend, Monday, doesn’t show up
for the first day of school, or the second, or the whole first week. When Claudia tries to find out where she is,
it seems that no one knows or really cares.
She talks to her parents, teachers at school, and even goes by Monday’s
house, although, because Monday lives in a bad neighborhood, her mother would
kill her if she found out. Teacher’s
check and say Monday is being home schooled, but her family said that she was
with her dad, or maybe her aunt. Claudia
doesn’t believe that Monday would just abandon her and she’s determined to get
to the truth, no matter what. This was
an amazing, sad, beautiful book that everyone should read. I didn’t expect it to end the way it did, but
looking back, I’m not entirely surprised either. This is a great book for teens who like
realistic books.
