Safe




Safe by Susan Shaw

Product Description
Safe. To Tracy, safe means having Mama close by. Years after her mother’s death, Tracy still feels her presence. But the moment Tracy is forced into a car as she is walking home from school one day, safe is ripped away. In the aftermath of an unspeakable crime, thirteen-year-old Tracy must fight her way back to safety and find comfort in her mother’s memory once again.

8/10

This was a one-sitting book. Its pretty short and it is definitely a teen book but I really liked it. It reminds me of Speak as far as subject matter. I liked Tracy and I thought her relationship with her dad was a nice break from the typical cold-distant-understanding parents that you see a lot of in these type books.

I would recommend this one for Meghan and Ryan. Seems like one of those books that we all like. The author has another book called The Boy In The Basement that I want to check out next.
