Things That are Hard to Explain (Like this Book)
Just so you know this may give away things in the book for people who haven’t read it. This book is sort of a mystery. You can’t figure it out until you finish the book.
When You Reach Me takes place in 1979 and is about a girl named Miranda who lives with her mom in an apartment in NYC. One day her best friend Sal gets punched by some kid named Marcus. After that Sal doesn’t talk to her anymore. Later MIranda starts getting notes from an unknown person. The first one says “I am going to save your friends life and my own.” MIranda doesn’t understand what this means. The second note says not to share the letters with anyone else. Also to write this person back the story. This book is MIranda writing the letter. Every thing makes sense when a terrible accident happens. When You Reach Me is coming out in July and is funny, mysterious, and so much more. I really really love this book!

Excellent post. It was tricky, I know, to write, but you gave just the right amount of information without giving anything away. And you made readers all the more eager to read the book. Well done!
