By Any Other Name by Laura Jarratt - Book Review

BY ANY OTHER NAME - by laura jarratt


   "Being the new girl at school is hard. But when you've been forced to abandon your old life, your old friends and even your old identity, hard doesn't begin to cover it.

   That's the point of witness protection, thoug. And it's the only thing that can keep Holly and her family safe. But how is she supposed to start a new life when one wrong move could put all their lives in danger?"

GENRE: young adult fiction, romance, mystery


REVIEW:

Plot

The main idea of the story was focused on Holly Latham. Her family along with her autistic sister, Katie, was placed in a witness protection programme. It focuses on Holly's new life and new friends along with her boyfriend which she hated at first. The plot was very good but I wished they stressed it more. It was very easy to follow the plot but I felt as though it was flat and could of been built up more. In saying that, there were lots of excitement and suspends along with romance.

Characters

There were some interesting characters that you'd grow to love and hate at the same time. All the characters had something unique about them and I was specifically intrigued by Joe , Holly's destined boyfriend. because he had a lot of different personalities and said a lot of weird yet fasinating things. The main character was very lovable and easy to relate to.

Personal Response:

Overall, I absolutely love this book. The romance between Holly and Joe was very believeable and it made my heart beat. The story was somehow relaxing but with a bit of suspends and mystery as well. I really enjoyed reading it and I felt uneasy when I read the last chapter.

Rating

It's definitely a must read book for those into romance and bit of action and mystery. I rate it a 5/5.
