Red by Libby Gleeson
4.0
Great book for younger teens. Starts right in the action, the opening scene showing our protagonist awakening in a park, caked in mud. She can't remember who she is, why she's here or anything, only one name runs through her head, but she doesn't know who the name belongs to.
We follow this girl, nicknamed 'Red' by the homeless boy who finds her, as she tries to figure out who she is and why she's in so much danger.
The setting for the story is quite unique too, it seems a cyclone has hit Sydney harbour and devastated our biggest city. Red faces one survival challenge after another, and why is she warned not to trust anyone? Fast, fun read.
