Overall the book Swallowing Stones by Joyce Mcdonald was an 9 out of a ten. The book did an amazing job at keeping you at the edge of your seat and making you not want to put the book down. This book will make you laugh and fall in love with it over and over again.

 

My favorite character of this book was Jenna Ward, I feel like the author did a good job with explaining and making it very understandable on how she was feeling with her father’s death.

 

I actually felt I was experiencing and feeling what they were going through. The only thing keeping this book from reaching a 10 out of 10 is the ending, I hated how it left you in mystery on what happens to Michael. It left me with so many questions, what did jenna say after Michael told her?…What ended up happening to his friend?….and many more.

 

In the end, the author did a great job getting the point across on how one little lie turns into a huge mess and can bring many many people into the problems and how it is easier just to tell the truth in the beginning.
