When You Reach Me By Rebecca Stead

This book is hard to explain.
If you have read it before, you might agree. There are almost no words to describe this book, because it is a mixture of genres: There is a sci-fi part to it, a kind of "growing up" theme, and much more that you can't quite put your finger on. The gist is a lachkey kid, Miranda, in the 1970's who has grown up with a friend who has now grown apart from her, and starts to receive strange notes predicting things that are yet to happen. The first one you know at the beginning of the book, does come true.

READ THIS BOOK IT'S GREAT!!
