Summer Reading

Unlike others in my PATH class, I didn't read all too much this summer. I spent most of the time at one of my two summer swim teams. But when I did read, I read a fantastic book called Split by Swati Avasthi. It's a story about a teenage boy (Jace) with an abusive father who gets kicked out and goes to find his older brother (Christian) who left a few years earlier. The story is based on Jace's new life with Christian in New Mexico. The whole time Jace is counting down the days until Thanksgiving, which is the day his mom promised to come to New Mexico. And along the way the author adds in memories from Jace's haunting past that are limiting him in his new home. It is an awesome book and i recomend it to everyone!
