Speak

Speak
Do you like teen fiction? If you do, I strongly recommend for you to read the book “Speak”, a novel by Laurie Halse Anderson.
Speak is about a girl named Melinda Sordino. She busts a party during the summer of her freshman year because she gets raped. When she starts her freshman year, she goes to school, and nobody will talk to her. They don’t know what happened at the party they are just mad at her for busting it. All of her old friends have separated. Only one girl will talk to her a new girl named Heather.
Towards the end her friends realize what has happened at the party, and why she would tell them why she busted it. They all apologize, and they all become friends again.
This book is about finding your voice. If Melinda would have just told her friends what had happened, they wouldn’t have teased her and not talked to her. If something like this happens to you, you should tell someone instead of making your life miserable. While kids grow they should learn how to speak because it could make a difference.
