HUSH by Jacqueline Woodson


HUSH is the story of Evie Thomas, a girl who was and still is Towsiah Green inside. Her whole family has moved from Denver, Colorado to some big city, where they can stay anonymous. The reason of why they had to move and become anonymous was a difficult and confusing one. Her whole family knows what her father had done was right. But its too hard for them to accept, especially for her older sister Anna, who used to be the popular cheerleader Cameron Green.
Evie's mother, a primary school teacher, has now become religious. Her father battles emotionally with himself over the fact whether or not he made the right choice for his family. Anna wants to runaway to college and Evie just wants everyone else to be happy, together as a family.

I found this book a really touching one. At first I thought it would be some boring book. After reading the novel, I think it's a unique story, something we can but can't relate to. At some points in the storyline, the book becomes 'slow', but all is made up with the 'fast' points of the book.
If I were to rate this book(which I am doing now, ha)it would be 8/10. This book is not a normal book. It's an 'independent' book (do you get me??). Even though it's not all ghouls, blood and fantasy, it's strange.

(This was my first post EVER on this blog. Woohoo. Please excuse my excitement ;))

I think that everything published was actually very reasonable.
However, think on this, suppose you were to write a killer headline?
I am not suggesting your information isn't solid, however suppose you added a post title to possibly grab people's attention?
I mean "HUSH by Jacqueline Woodson" is a little plain.
You might look at Yahoo's front page and see how they create news titles to grab people to click. You might add a related video or a picture or two to get readers excited about what you've
got to say. Just my opinion, it might bring your
posts a little bit more interesting.
