What I Saw and How I Lied by Judy Blundell

4.0

I'm still mulling this one over. I thought the book had a slow start to it, but once it picked up it stayed fast paced. The writing was good, the characters well drawn and the sense of time and place were well done and vivid. All of that said I don't entirely feel that it deserved the National Book Award for young people. When all was said and done some of the plot points were disappointing and really one of the biggest secrets I saw coming immediately.
